While many figured this would be the last season of Smallville as The CW moved it where shows go to die (Friday night's), the show managed to get enough people to tune in that it's getting a tenth season.  You read that right...it's turning ten next year.  After next season, Smallville will have aired over 200 episodes.  No matter what you think of the show, that's a hell of an accomplishment.  With the season finale next week, The CW has sent over a bunch of images and the official synopsis.  Hit the jump to take a look:
