[quote name='craven_fiend']Thats a good idea, except the Chloe face,
Because she is a made up, IIRC, for the show. So maybe her death will be the protaganist for Clark and Lois to work for the Daily Planet. Just my two cents.[/QUOTE]
I've only read through page 24 because I just finished watching Season 5 on DVD with some friends (who got hooked on Smallville late in the game and have been trying to catch up). I have this season safely saved on my DVR at home but haven't been able to watch yet, so forgive me if Season 6 has already eradicated this possiblity.
Nevertheless, we were all talking and based on the notion that characters in Smallville are often not who they seem, get "possessed" or taken over by computer programs, etc - I think it would be really cool if Smallville pulled a switcheroo with Chloe and Lois. I think it's do-able, since Chloe doesn't actually exist in the comics in some weird way it could even explain her lack of existence in the comics - because she was there the whole time.
Have Lois die or have to leave Earth or something and due to....(enter convoluted plot twist - which is not entirely foreign to the Smallville world - here)...Chloe takes on the name "Lois" and works her way up the Daily Planet. I think her character would generally fit, and I'm sorry but she is just so much more likable than Lois as a character.
Clearly Lana is out, but I'd like to have a strand of hope for Chloe as the faithful sidekick and romantic interest for Clark. Heck, even give her amnesia - no problem there. The writers are going to have to somehow at some point going to have to explain how nobody suspects Clark Kent to be Superman anyway.
Just a pipe dream I guess. Sweet little Chloe - I like her!
