Smallville

Crusade - S4-E1

Trivia: Martha makes a remark suggesting she thinks Bridgette Crosby and Dr Swan are together to which Bridgette comments "In another lifetime." Bridgette is played by Margot Kidder, who played the original Lois Lane, Prof Swan was played by the late Christopher Reeve. A nice touch I think.

Pariah - S4-E12

Trivia: At the end, when Clark is visiting Alicia's grave, there is another grave shown with the name Allison Dunn on it, which is the name of Smallville's set decorator.

Ageless - S4-E20

Trivia: The names of the students who RSVP'd to the party are names of people who worked on the show in some form, with the exception of the two characters in the episode, Karen and Tanner. Even the host of the party, Christina Verano, worked on the show.

Ageless - S4-E20

Trivia: When looking at Karen in the yearbook, the other person on the page is listed as Jacquie Gould. Gould is a Canadian director out of Vancouver, where a lot of the show was filmed. She's credited as first assistant director for one episode.

Spirit - S4-E18

Trivia: When Dawn is looking through the yearbook, some of the names seen are people who worked on "Smallville." Mairzee Almas was one of the directors who would go on to direct Kreuk (Lana) in "Beauty and the Beast" and a few other DC shows. Assistant editor Anthony Ashley, assistant directors Jen Carpenter and Rob Duncan, costume designer Caroline Cranstoun, and location manager Michael Hauka. Many would also go on to work on other DC shows.

Gone - S4-E2

Trivia: The Daily Planet article about Lionel Luther being found guilty was reported by Perry White. When Perry was seen in season 3, he was a disgraced reporter, after Lionel got him fired, who worked as a tabloid reporter. He vowed to get sober and get his career on track at the end of the episode "Perry." He isn't physically seen again until the end of season 9.

Gone - S4-E2

Other mistake: Lois digs up Chloe's grave site to unearth her casket. It is obvious that the casket is not buried six feet deep. You would think, with all that is going on, that LuthorCorp would have at least buried the casket deeper to deter inquisitive eyes and maybe throw in a few scattered bones for good measure.

Trespass - S6-E14

Martha Kent: Clark? What are you still doing out here?
Clark Kent: Well, I'm still doing my chores.
Martha Kent: Well, you usually finish those in about two minutes. How is it that I drove to Metropolis, attended the Children's Foundation dinner, and made it back before you finished?
Clark Kent: Because I'm doing them the normal way.

More quotes from Smallville

Answer: In the comics, Krypto is a dog from Krypton who was used as the passenger in a test launch by Jor-El, Superman's father, before he launched the actual rocket taking his infant son to Earth. Krypto's capsule was involved in a mishap, sending it out of Kryptonian orbit and eventually found its way to Earth where he linked up with the young Clark Kent. Like any native of Krypton, Krypto has superpowers on Earth. In Smallville, the dog is a standard Earth dog who has been experimentally injected with kryptonite, giving him super-strength for a limited period of time, who escapes and links up with Clark (who suggests the name Krypto, ostensibly because of the dog's cryptic origins). It doesn't take too long for the dog's strength to fade, and the Kents decide to keep him, although they ultimately name him Shelby, after a dog that Martha Kent had in childhood.
