Clark DID lose some direction without college and I guess his job as a reporter sort of feels that gap, but it's not like they're focusing in on that much, so it doesn't have the same effect.

I FREAKING LOVED EVIL LANA. That was the only way she was tolerable. I still, to this day, think the show would have been better off, just letting her be evil and be part of an evil super couple with Lex.

The trailer for "Wrath" got me all excited because Lex was like, "You'll lose Clark forever" and Crazy!Lana was like, "I'll get over it" and it was SO AWESOME.



And, then, that's not necessarily the way it happened in the episode and it was a major letdown for me.
