Immediately, the storyline is something different for longtime fans of the franchise as well as Superman and Lois' characters onscreen, since this type of story arc hasn't been done before. It's not ideal to have a two-month hiatus after only a few episodes, especially for a brand-new series, but the positive reactions to the series suggests viewers will tune back in when it returns in May.
Some films and TV shows began filming in early and only recently completed - if they've wrapped at all. You can be pretty certain that we'll see the hero emerge in full for the first time before the series comes to a close. Even if multiple promos hadn't teased it , there's common sense to consider: "Smallville" has always been about giving fans an inside look into the early years of a young Clark Kent.
To not end the series with an explicit nod to his future as a superhero would be a disservice to the fans. Will Superman suit up in the final stretch of story arc and beat the bad guys as the true Man of Steel, or will he instead emerge victorious in the final episode and only then, in the series' final minutes, accept his fate? Which would you prefer? They have lost trust in their promotions since they have proven to be untrue. Viewers will now be left wondering if future promotional dates will be changed at the last minute, too.
Loss Of Buzz Lead-Up: The network had sent out screeners of the new episodes earlier this week to reviewers. In doing so, they got early buzz from the industry about how great these episodes would be and how the countdown to return had begun. Additionally, this got fans excited and the new episodes were anxiously awaited. Now, none of that buzz can be maintained. Promotional articles are a week too early, the buzz will die down, and the reminder of a return will be marred by the memory of why fans are getting their new episodes a week later than usual.
Loss Of Viewers: While it is true that devoted fans of Smallville and Supernatural , while voicing their extreme displeasure over the delay, will likely tune in next week, that's not going to be necessarily true for everyone. Some viewers may be fed up with the way they have been treated and simply tune out, going to another network to get their entertainment. Additionally, casual viewers who had seen the dated promotional ads and were planning on tuning in are going to be in for a surprise.
They will not know of the change, so instead of finding a new show they might have watched, they change the channel and never come back. It's poor planning on the part of the CW and a very bad situation for fans of all four shows. Vampire Diaries and Nikita may suffer some backlash because of the change, while Smallville and Supernatural fans are being given the short end of the stick. Yeah, you're welcome.
