New "Asylum" Spoiler!
Special thanks to: Madsci

The latest Dreamwatch magazine has a new spoiler from executive producer Miles Millar that we believe are concerning the upcoming episode "Asylum." Visit the spoilers page and look under "Asylum" for more!

"Perry" Music!
Here's a list of the music heard in "Perry..."

"I Love This Bar" by Toby Keith - Played at the beginning of the episode where Perry's getting drinks in "Littleville." Toby Keith's appearance on 60 Minutes II the same night as "Perry" beat all of the competition. *Growl*
"Blue" by LeAnn Rimes - Played during the scene with Clark and Perry in the Wild Coyote
"Walkin' In Memphis" by Lonestar - Played at the very end of the episode, when Clark says goodbye to Perry at the bus stop. What Memphis has to do with Smallville, we may never know. (Many have e-mailed us and pointed out that the Perry White of Lois & Clark was a big Elvis fan, and that may be the reason for the song. A bit of a stretch, but maybe...)

Thanks to Derek, Patty, Jackie, Methos, Ed, Krister2, Angelus, Bruce for letting us know where the songs appeared!

KryptonSite is happy to present an interview with writer Mark Verheiden about the November 5 episode of Smallville, which will bring an important part of the Superman mythos into Smallville continuity.

Of course saying what that episode's title is would be revealing what that "important part" is, but in this interview, Verheiden talks about the episode, whether or not this element may return, his favorite character, the previously-unrevealed title of his next episode, and more.

"Slumber" Overnight Ratings!
Baseball's World Series and ABC's sitcoms seemed to be the only things to really do better than Smallville on Wednesday night, though the show tied with NBC's Ed. Sad news for executives at the other networks - Smallville's season 3 success is not a dream! This is what the WB had to say in a press release:

"SMALLVILLE led the way for The WB BY PLACING #1 in its time period among persons 12-34 (4.0/13) and #1 for the night in teens (5.1/18), female teens (5.4/19) and male teens (4.8/17).

"SMALLVILLE improved its time period compared to the parallel week last season +48% in persons 12-34, +16% in adults 18-34, +52% in men 18-34, +19% in women 12-34, +112% in men 12-34, +45% in adults 18-49, +7% in women 18-49, +107% in men 18-49, +219% in teens, +116% in female teens and +586% (yes, 586%) in male teens. The super series also improved its time period over the same week last year +82% in total viewers (6.9 million, also a season high).

"For the night, The WB was #2 in men 18-34 (2.9/9) and men 12-34 (3.1/10), #3 in adults 18-34 (3.2/9), persons 12-34 (3.3/10) and women 12-34 (3.5/10) and #1 in teens (3.7/13), female teens (3.8/14 and female teens (3.6/12)."

Baseballs, Kryptonite Bullets Can't Stop "Extinction"
Despite HUGE numbers for the Cubs/Marlins game on Fox last night, Smallville still did very well in the overnight ratings race!

The show's genre competition, UPN's Star Trek: Enterprise, isn't faring too well -- this might be the first Trek in a long time that didn't last for a 7-year mission.

Let's see how well next week's episode will do -- judging from the episode preview, it should be a good one!

Column Compares WB's New "Tarzan" to Smallville
Special thanks to: Dee
and thanks to TarzanTheSeries.com for Tarzan image

A recent Chicago Sun-Times article by Phil Rosenthal compares the WB's new beefcake Tarzan to the Smallville series, and discusses why the show about young Clark Kent seems to work so much better than Travis Fimmel, Uncle Skinner, and crew.

The article compares former model Fimmel to Tom Welling, and says "Tom Welling, who gets to play the young man of steel in that series, gets ample support from a cast of solid pros. Fimmel gets little such boost." The article goes on to say "Bring in an Annette O'Toole, a John Schneider and a John Glover and maybe Fimmel's Tarzan wouldn't seem so dreary and empty, all atmosphere and no gas."

Jeph Loeb Co-Creation Possibly Coming To UPN
Before joining the staff of Smallville, before challenging the unknown and having dark victories for all seasons, Jeph Loeb wrote or co-wrote some of the 1980's most popular movies.

One of those movies, "Teen Wolf" starring Michael J. Fox, is in development to be a TV series produced by Warner Bros. Television, to air on UPN. The pilot script is being prepared by veteran TV director Terry Hughes (Friends, Third Rock From the Sun) and writer Ron Milbauer ("Idle Hands"). UPN hopes to turn it into their new franchise by turning the movie into a series, with hopeful success like the success that was had by Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

We asked Mr. Loeb if he's involved with the new series at all. Here was his reply: "While I don't have anything to do with the development of the series, the characters and the franchise was created by myself and my then partner Matthew Weisman with whom I also created and wrote 'Commando'. 'Teen Wolf' was the first movie I ever wrote professionally and was astonished when it got made so easily. We had a ball making the movie and Michael J. Fox couldn't have been nicer if he tried. It is wonderful memory and I hope the series catches the spirit of the movie."

If you haven't seen "Teen Wolf" in a while, you can catch it and its sequel on DVD at Amazon.com!
