Just announced! They are taking the right steps! I may actually start watching again!



Justin Hartley Returns As Series Regular For Season 8

E! Online's Kristin Dos Santos is reporting that she has received confirmation that Justin Hartley will be returning to Smallville in Season Eight, not as a guest star, but as a series regular.

Hartley has a talent holding deal with The CW network, and his recent pilot, Austin Golden Hour, was not picked up as a series.

It is said that Oliver's story arc will delve into his past rather than his superheroic identity as the Green Arrow.

While we're green with excitement about this news, what we'd really like to see is a Green Arrow spin-off series. Maybe this return for the Green Arrow will make that happen (and make Warner Bros. forget that silly "Green Arrow in prison" movie idea!)

In other news, CW representatitves have also told Dos Santos that Kristin Kreuk is scheduled to appear in six or seven episodes of Season Eight - with the exact number of shows yet to be determined
