Just so you know.

I don't like Lana.
I'm not too crazy about Pete either, except in fic.

And, despite a few eps where we got a glimpse of how awesome Lana could be if the writers weren't such chowderheads, I've never liked her either.

honestly, first I disliked her because she was there. I'll admit all I wanted to see was Clark and Lex. Then, the actress underwhelmed me with her ability to wring any juice totally from any scene she was in. Then, they decided she wasn't cool enough, and suddenly she was super Lana, who could do anything. It wasn't until this season that she's improved a lot in acting and rarely makes THE HAMSTER FACE, which is why I call her that.

When the show first started, I was expecting Lana to be like the Lana Lang I remembered from the comics -- Clark's one-time high school crush, who he loved from afar and who never gave him the time of day. I certainly never expected her to take over the damn show! A lot of my resentment of her probably stems from that.

Yeah, I think the less you know about Smallville canon, the happier you'd be with the characters on the show. I think most of the problem lies in the fact that KK doesn't project likability. If she'd been a warmer character, I doubt people would resent her as much as they do.
