  • Supergirl Helen Slater Previews Her Smallville Visit | Today's News: Our Take | 11/1/2007
    On the heels of Dean Cain's guest spot last month, another actor with ties to the Man of Steel mythos lands in Smallville (8 pm/ET, CW) tonight when 1984's big-screen Supergirl, Helen Slater, begins a two-episode arc as Clark's Kryptonian mom, Lara.

(Perhaps in Smallville mythology she was "away" on a spa vacation to Venus when her home went kablooey?)Thus far, Slater is slated to appear in at least one episode, the sixth one of Smallville's upcoming season. read more
