The Top 25 Smallville Episodes
Considering it's been off the air since 2011, October is a surprisingly busy month for Smallville. On October 1st, the entire series was released on Hulu, marking the first time Smallville was ever available to stream in the US. And on October 16th, Smallville celebrates its 15th anniversary, with the show beginning its 10-year, 217-episode run on that date in 2001.
With all that in mind, we're taking a look back at the 25 best episodes of the series and its depiction of a young Clark Kent (Tom Welling) going from a freshman in high school to finally taking on the mantle of Superman. Smallville evolved a lot over the decade it was on the air -- and went from the WB to the CW -- as Clark graduated, made new friends and began to encounter many more superheroes and villains.

Jurassic World 2: No Militarized Dinosaurs
Jurassic World director Colin Trevorrow has come forward to shed light on the upcoming sequel, which he say swill be "more suspenseful and scary" than the original.
Thanks to his involvement in Star Wars: Episode IX, Trevorrow isn't directing Jurassic World 2. Instead, horror director Juan Antonio Bayona is helming the film, and according to Trevorrow, he's the perfect fit for the film's darker story. "It will be more suspenseful and scary," Trevorrow told Jurassic Outpost. "I knew I wanted Bayona to direct it long before anyone ever heard that was a possibility, so the whole thing was just built around his skill set."

The Top 10 Scrubs Episodes
It's a big anniversary for Scrubs this weekend, with October 2nd marking 15 years since we first met the men and women of Sacred Heart. The impressively durable series -- it ran for nine years on two different networks (including that weird pseudo-spinoff Season 9) -- helped usher in a new era for network TV comedy, with its then-rare use of a single camera format and more multilayered storylines. With that in mind, we're taking an updated look at the Top 10 episodes of the series.
The best episodes of Scrubs are those that have plenty of goofy humor, an imaginative daydream sequence or three and a stomach punch at the end to remind viewers the show still takes place at a hospital... where people occasionally die. So without further ado, here are the Top 10 episodes of Scrubs.
