MISTAKES/GOOFS

FACT: Both times (before and after Clark reverses time) Lex throws his alcoholic beverage and glass into the fire in his mansion, their is a burst of flames that just appear to be larger. This burst should be blue as alcohol burns blue.

TRIVIA

SPOILER: The death of Jonathan Kent on the series was done in order to coincide with the character's death in the comics.
SPOILER: John Schneider was told in advance that his character was going to die. In an interview, he said that he got the script and read that Lana was going to die, he thought that the producers had either changed their minds, or someone played a joke on him.
When meeting with Chloe after going back in time, and Clark tells her that he has done so, Chloe says, "What did you do? Spin the earth backwards on it's axis?" This is tie in to the original Superman movie when Superman flies around the earth to reverse it's direction and time to save Lois Lane from being killed in an earthquake.
