About this episode

The episode features Cassidy Freeman discussing her role as Tess Mercer and the changes in Season 8 of Smallville.

We are so back! Season 8 is coming in hot with special guest Cassidy Freeman! We discuss the introduction of Tess Mercer, embodying a sympathetic villain, and permanently changing her hair as a result. In the episode, the Justice League scours the globe for Clark, Chloe comes to grips with her new Brainiac powers, and the Daily Planet gets a new employee. It's the beginning of a whole new era. Lex is gone but we're still here for the analysis, memories, and bits. Here we go! ❤️ This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.
