    Both of you made Smallville one of the most pivotal/inspirational shows for me growing up. So knowing how much you both have endured through your own anxieties made me love you guys and this podcast even more. As Tom says, “it just helps me feel a little less alone.” At the end of the day, this is what “Inside of You” is all about.

      Tom Welling was a fantastic Superman. With a ten year run he should have been in the suit for the last 3 seasons. I sometimes wish they didn’t hire Tom Welling and someone that was willing to get in the suit. Then there’s the terrible Arrowverse cameo that I will do my best to forget. That was his chance to finally give the fans what they’ve been begging for and... nope. Not only no suit, but gave up his powers because I guess you can’t have a family and be a Superhero at the same time?? Then now we’re getting a Superman and Lois show that has him with a family. ??? Even with my gripes about him not wearing the suit , Smallville is still the best CW DC show.

Personally, I feel that even though he never wore it, in the context of the finale Clark still did wear it. He became Superman, flew, saved Air Force One and then the world. So I was pretty satisfied with the ending.

      They had him on the “crisis on infinite earths” storyline in the arrowverse(should be the smallvilleverse imo) and they made it so Toms Clark GAVE UP HIS POWERS!! It really pissed me off, Clark’s progression into superman was basically all for nothing. He’d learned over 10 seasons that he needed his powers because the world needed him, he wouldn’t have given up his powers. I was really disappointed. Currently watching smallville all the way through again. Lol

    • @HeyitsmeOakleyD
      @HeyitsmeOakleyD 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Rough Collies Rock well they were in between choosing Brandon rouths and Tom wellings superman to play the part of the superman that Brandon rougt repraised. In the end it was easier to use Brandon because he was already on the main sets and play ray palmer. So he could switch between roles if needed to. And it closes off routh’s version of reeves superman and gives him a second televised adventure. Even tho wellings Clark giving up his powers pissed me off, at least we had a close to the series. But hopefully they write it so that one of the smallville characters or actors (apart from Erica durance because she has already) return as their respective character or just have them come back for a episode

I remember watching the show as a little girl in 3rd grade when it first aired on CW and faithfully watched the show. Now that I'm rewatching it, I still get so excited to see all my favorite characters: Lana, Clark, and Lex who is a really great complex guy, etc. My husband and I are always rooting for Lex and Clark even though they become enemies. The chemistry between all of you guys to make the characters come to life is beyond perfect, I can never imagine anyone else being those characters.

When I watched the show I felt alive, felt hope and I dreamed of how one day I could fight for people who can’t fight for themselves. I found that through joining the US military. Smallville told the story of a boy going through life trivial and and becoming the man whose destiny is to great to phantom for us mortals. I liked how it shows Lex slowly becoming the adversary of Clark. They could not have found a better young Clark Kent than Tom Welling. Smallville will always have a special place in my memory.

    I've just been watching a couple of the smallville podcasts and happened upon this and ... wow thank you for this. Sometimes, even with many people around you who you KNOW love you, you just feel like you're going through something like this alone. Michael nailed it when he said he didn't even know where it was coming from, but you just keep focusing on everything negative that COULD happen. I've found that what you do is create a LIE in your head about a situation or a person ... it's not anything based in reality, just your own fears. Then you're thinking you have to catch yourself and not project that false reality onto the people around you in the real world ... which i believe is why it's so hard to talk to other people about anxiety or depression ... 1) you don't want to put them in that same headspace and 2) you don't want them to think of you as THAT person. The knowledge that other people who you believe have their *stuff together are experiencing the same thing helps ... not because misery loves company, but because you then realize that literally billions of other people go through the same thing and still manage to get through life without losing it.

    "You can't be creative in survival mode" is SO TRUE. Weirdly that's actually how I realized I had anxiety (which I'd had all my life but did not really know what it was.) I finally put 2 and 2 together when the worst bought of anxiety I'd ever had happened at the same time I was trying to choreograph a dance piece and I just could. not. produce. ideas. Dancing however is still my number one best way I have to manage anxiety and get out of my head -- something about exercise that is also emotionally expressive really helps me work out my thoughts without actively thinking about it and getting stuck in bad thought spirals. I would 100% NOT be who I am today if I did not find that outlet.

      That’s exactly how I am atm with my writing. I found myself feeling uninspired and hopeless. I just feel like I’m just wasting time like I should be doing something productive and useful but I’m trying to fight through it and not let my anxiety destroy my creativity. It’s hard tho but I am trying.

      @MaryEllen Brokop I'm not everyone and I don't doubt there are people who do manage to create in the thick of it, but for me I could use crisis for inspiration later after things are a bit better, but not during when it's taking every ounce of energy to do base level things like get myself out of bed and make myself eat food.

      @MaryEllen Brokop Well there’s a difference. In my case along with my anxiety comes self doubt. I am stressed and worried and anxious about what is going on in the world, about getting job, and having money etc I have had panic attacks about these things and that spills out to my creativity. It makes it feel as if it’s not enough it’s not practical so why bother doing it. Even tho I love it and I have ideas of what stories I want to be told. For others they have an overwhelming sense of emotions, the stress or anxiety is just too much that they use creativity to let it out, because they can’t express what they are feeling in any other way so it comes out in dancing, singing, painting, etc. so yeah for some it does become an outlet but for others it hinders it.

    It's refreshing to know that celebs are just like us and not everything is sunshine & roses cuz social media skews your perception with the non-stop "happy" pics they post. Me and my then ex-wife also used to go to therapy and it was the best decision we made because it made us realize that as much as we loved each other (very much still to this day) it was never going to fundamentally work in the grand scheme of things, we were better off being co-parents. Life is so damn short so you gotta think about your own mental health and happiness. Going to therapy was the best decision we made because we're now happier than ever separately and our relationship is much more whole for our kids. Thanks for this great interview Michael! it's nice knowing that celebs are just like us and what they project on social media isn't the whole truth, they too feel the way we do with anxiety and personal dilemmas.

Im adopted and found out that none of my birth family are artistic or creative and yet my adopted mother brought these atributes out in me, and im grateful for that, yet at the same time its frustrating because i dont really know much about my birth mother so im not sure about which attributes i get from her and what i got from my adopted mother.

      I’m artistic in that I sing and draw and write but my daughter takes it to a much more creative and original and passionate way where she is also a perfectionist about it and very detailed and she is truly just an artist, I’m sure I would or could have been too, not to her extent of research and honing her craft but I realized later she must get the basics or the affinity from me but she resents me so much for working all the time and not teaching her or helping her with anything or sending her to classes or being supportive or taking her places to have fun that every thing feels like work to her and she is in a bad headspace she turned 18 recently and I always said from when she was born if she was with other parents she would go so far in life and would have resources I never gave her. I called it similar to her having potential energy and without resources and support it never reaches or turns into kinetic energy… so I guess the potential energy doesn’t really matter unless it’s pushed or flourished into the kinetic energy, so I’m glad your adoptive mom was so good at cultivating your true potential

    I am 32 years old and I never saw the show when it was on air (even though it was the perfect series to cope with adolescence). I now have HBOmax and as a huge fan of the Superman and DC comics, this is the best show made based on the life of Superman and Lex before metropolis.
    I really enjoy watching Smallville with my wife, and am struck by how wonderfully well-written the episodes are; the engaging plots and depth that both Tom and Mike bring to Clark and Lex, respectively, certainly resulted in a timeless TV show.
    Also, I came across this youtube channel and am now one more subscriber looking forward to every new video, thanks for all this Mike.
