Zap2It Article Talks To The Reunited "Dukes of Hazzard"
Special thanks to: Ron

Zap2It.com's Kate O'Hare spoke to Tom Wopat and John Schneider about their reunion on the November 3 Smallville. Wopat, who starred with Schneider on The Dukes of Hazzard 25 years ago, guest stars as senator Jack Jennings.

In the article, they talk about some of the inside jokes to look for in the episode. (Whoever wrote "Chickasaw County" into there, you rock; but the real question is - does Sheriff Little live there?) They also discuss how easy it is for them to work together again, and Schneider jokes that he only works with people with the initials T.W.

"The difficult part is," Wopat said to O'Hare, "they're yelling for 'Tom' on the set, and we've got two TWs here."

Also in the article, Tom Welling claims he was too young for the original Dukes of Hazzard, even though *ahem* he's older than the webmaster who is writing this article, who caught the show's last five years or so when they were on Friday nights at 8 on CBS. Good try, Tom.

Aquaman Spin-Off Poll Results
This past week on KryptonSite we set up a new poll asking if the fans are interested in an Aquaman spin-off series from Smallville.

The results are in! 8,463 people voted... and it was a really close race. Ultimately, Yes, definitely! took the top spot with 2,556 votes, or 30%.

Coming in second place was "I'd consider watching" with 2,430 or 29%. Taking third was "There are other DC Comics characters I'd rather see," which had 28% of the vote (2,373). As you can see the results were close. We may have to have another poll asking about which DC characters next.

Finally, 1,104 fans said "No way" to the idea of watching an Aquaman spin-off. Considering that was only 13% of those who responded, I'd say he performed swimmingly.

Smallville has continued to maintain its good ratings. While most shows dropped this week, Smallville was lucky enough to keep its audience - and it finally flew past Everybody Hates Chris on UPN.

"Aqua" Ratings!
Smallville swam ahead of FOX this week, as they showed repeats of their doomed show Reunion and got their lowest numbers yet. The lack of baseball or The OC did, however, do Smallville some good, as it and Survivor are the only shows this week that improved.

The WB will most likely be making an announcement, but it is expected that the show did very well in its target demographics.

Here's the overnight-ratings breakdown.

Smallville may be near the bottom of the charts, but it was still a very close ratings battle for Thursday night, and the show again did well in many key demographics.
