Insurgence

Tom Welling & Michael Rosenbaum
About this episode

We’ve made it to the Smallville, Die Hard crossover with Season 2 Episode 12: Insurgence! What would an episode of Talk Ville be without a cameo from the one and only, Al Gough. Al shares his thoughts on the episode that mirrors Jitters, and discusses why they also were surprised by how ‘over budget’ this went. Despite his court ordered anger management, Michael questions a couple scenes where Lex flies off the handle, while also analyzing how Lionel gets creepier and creepier as the series progresses. Tom talks about the iconic scene where Clark leaps a building in a single bound, while also analyzing how Lionel seems to get less blind as the season continues.
