Welling’s hit WB show Small town was a cultural milestone in Superman lore, as the character was explored through the lens of a teen drama about angst. Tom originally started out as a model and quickly transitioned into acting, appearing in a few episodes of Judging Amy and small roles on other shows. Welling turned down the role of Clark Kent on Small town twice because he thought the idea sounded ridiculous and was afraid of being pigeonholed. However, he was convinced after reading the pilot script. Tom Welling brought out the best part of Clark Kent: his innate goodness. He saw the best in people, even Lex. Much of the show was Clark struggling with his destiny, trying to come to terms with his origins and holding on to his humanity. Welling did a great job portraying that struggle. But the relationship between the two friends kept viewers coming back for more. Lex and Clark were tragically destined to be bitter enemies forever.
