Smallville" executive producers Brian Peterson and Kelly Souders spoke with the LA Times and answered their questions about the series finale and what challenges they faced.

GB: The show moved away from "Smallville" in emphasis quite a while ago and even Tom Welling has said that the show's title could have switched to "Metropolis" in a way. Was that a concern as you balanced your brand with the necessary trajectory of the story?
BP: In a weird way "Smallville" wasn't just about where it was set even though he did live on the farm for almost the whole series. It was more about the coming-of-age birth of a hero and the spirit and growth of a hero. He was not ready to become the hero that everyone knows as Superman. We tried to stay true to a lot of the themes and the visual palette of the pilot but as he grew and Clark became a different person and came into his own the show had to do the same. We took all of that in. In the finale, in fact, Lois calls him [by the nickname] "Smallville" again.
