Well, that was an astonishing instance of disappointing literally everyone, because I can't imagine anyone walking away satisfied with it. I suppose the Chlois shippers could be a little happy, since their ship came off the best, but other than that? MEGA FAIL.
What makes it worse is that this is the first season arc Smallville has done in a long time, maybe ever, that has been actually affecting. By creating a slow burn centered on the two best actors in the cast, the show managed to actually improve upon the rather lame Doomsday plot from the comics. Doomsday basically being a werewolf isn't that original an idea, but the twist with Chloe made it new and fun to watch (although they could've done less of the apocalyptic music everytime Davis did anything. He could've brought Chloe flowers and the soundtrack would be the same as him sacrificing a nun to Satan).
( Spoilers. But really, you could consider them due warnings. )

Author’s Note: Spoilers for 8x22 Doomsday.
Summary: Chloe takes a look at the apocalypse.
( It hurt to look at a lot of things these days. She couldn’t look at the Watchtower without thinking of Jimmy, which was the kind of pain she welcomed because it was better than the nothing she felt in-between. She couldn’t even drive through Smallville without feeling Clark’s footprints under her. But Davis hurt most of all. )
