Finals revealed the show to be flat again at 1.1 instead of up at 1.2. For those asking if a slight rebound in “Smallville” ratings guarantees the show a 10th season, I’m inclined to point out a few facts: a) “Smallville” likely remains (thanks in part to Tom Welling’s salary) The CW’s most expensive shows to produce. b) It’s now dead last among Friday’s weak field of Big Five first-run shows and sometimes even lags Friday cable fare like “Monk” and “White Collar.” Even if Friday’s 1.2 sticks, “Smallville” also remains among The CW’s lowest-rated series: CW current first-run season averages in 18-49: 1.76 The Vampire Diaries 1.49 America’s Next Top Model 1.23 Supernatural 1.13 One Tree Hill 1.11 Gossip Girl 1.10 90210 1.01 Smallville 0.78 Melrose Place c) According to the finals, “Smallville” garnered 2.63 million viewers Friday; that’s a long way under the 4.76 million viewers per episode “Smallville” averaged during seasons one through eight (to say nothing of the series’ 6.3 million season-two peak). d) Last season, when “Smallville” was pulling a substantially bigger audience, CW execs thought long and hard about replacing it with, among other things, “The Graysons” (a look at Batman when he was a boy).
