Watching this season again I have been very surprised by how good it turned out to be. I always remember season 3 as being my favourite but I may have to re-evaluate things because, other than the blip they have with 'Thirst' (possibly the worst episode of Smallville), the rest of the season is consistently very strong. The tone is a bit darker and they certainly up the sex and violence, but the story threads seem much more well thought out, even giving Lana a pretty strong season. Plus, we get big moments for the show in general, such as Clark and Lex coming to blows, the introduction of League members, Aquaman and Cyborg, the awesome inclusion of James Marsters as Braniac and, or course, the death of Jonathan. Cracking stuff! The best season yet! 

SEASON AVERAGE: 4.25/5
