Day 2 - Least Favorite Character
This is a very touch choice for me. I could have chosen Ollie for taking up way too much scene time, or Davis for the fact that he creeped me out practically everytime he came on screen, or even Pete, the not-so-good best friend (the latter especially because of the debacle that is Hero, combined with Velocity.) But I think I have to go with the consensus pick, Lana Lang, simply because she's been involved in so many arcs of epic fail (Henry Small, fake baby, super Lana, just to name a few). And although Clana gave us some lovely moments that form such an important part of the series for me, it was also supremely annoying in the way the show just refused to let it die. I'm sorry, the two just didn't match up well - neither of them ever felt comfortable in their own skin around each other. I view it as a tragedy that Lana felt it necessary to don the Power suit in S8 to become Clark's "equal" - that she then became literally toxic to him was merely poetic justice. I actually do want her to return though in S10 to resolve that issue and finally put to rest any idea that Clark may continue to hold a flame for her.
ETA: Oh crap, a comment on another post just reminded me of my REAL least favourite character - the talking caves/Jor-El/Fortress, whatever you want to call it. I really do hate that thing, not so much in individual scenes but for the cumulative effect. That thing is just plain defective and I rejoice every time it gets destroyed, only to despair when it is rebuilt anew. Did Zod silence it for good, or will one of S10's returning characters resurrect it? Tune in next season to find out!
