Nobody did anything about Clark's secret


With him refusing to tell his friends they never did anything like spying on him 3rd and nobody caught him in the act very often, they perhaps made him too invisible in his pre Superman years, at times I wish they had better indications how he was gonna be Superman in his lifetime before The Blur, he was basically the same character for seven seasons.

Had Clark told to many people there would have been a greater risk of the wrong people finding out about it, then somebody WOULD have done something about it.

People like Perry White, the Luthors, Cat Grant and Detective Samuel Phelan would have surely did something if they found out.

reply

Would've lead to more dramatic possibilities.

or the death of Clark Kent. Then the world would be doomed once Zod/Dooms Day etc show up. Kara would give it her best shot but I don't think she'd stand much of a chance.

reply

Or better reasons for him to don the suit later on in life.

reply

He did wear the suit later on in life anyways. Just not on the weekly episodes.

reply

May have lead to better stronger reasons for him to put on the suit later in life but they never touched up on that until season 8.

reply

His one friend kicked him in the Nuts and shouted

reply

I wouldn't be surprised if that really happens in the series. It's been awhile but I enjoyed this show.

reply

The guy did know his secret and blabbed cause of red krypton

reply

A life surrounded by bling-bling never suited Clark well (^ ^)

reply

His friends name was Pete I think right ? He has his face all over the place

reply

He and Pete were tight, it was only a matter of time before Clark's secret came out of the bag.

reply

But then Pete tried to ruin it but it wasn’t his fault he was corrupted

reply

Pretty tragic for their friendship. My twin is wanting to watch this with me. I hear it hasn't aged well in the special effects department. I look forward to revisiting it despite the whole Allison Mack affair, ugh. Thanks, Cap'N!

reply

What did he shout?

reply

Think the reason why no one did anything about it because the format of the show demands that the regular characters cannot know and everything stay the same throughout the entire run of the show.

reply

How many secret rescues from Clark until people start pointing fingers? in season one a dirty cop and a reporter were on to him.
