In which episode of smallville does jonathan die?
"Reckoning" received mostly positive reviews from commentators. Various critics felt that the death of Jonathan Kent was a poignantly emotional choice, although others expressed their desire that Lang would have died. This was especially true for fans, who angrily opined their views on various "Smallville" fan sites. Michael Ausiello from "TV Guide" wrote, "Watch ['Reckoning'] because it's one of the best hours of TV this season and I'm not even a big "Smallville" fan." Vic Holtreman from Screenrant gave the episode a largely positive review and called it "a great episode overall". He called the scenes leading up to the funeral "quite moving" and noted that the loss of Jonathan Kent was a blow, not only for the series' main characters, but also for the audience itself. However, Holtreman mocked the "old moon-pie eye’d Clark/Lana situation" and the fact that "Lana didn't die". Omar Gallaga from Television Without Pity gave the episode a B and wrote that the death of Jonathan Kent "still stings". Chris Carabott from TV Fanatic named the episode the second best "Smallville" episode (coming after ninth season entry "Absolute Justice"), and he wrote that "The death of Jonathan Kent is one of the most pivotal moments of "Smallville"." Carabott also opined that the ramifications of the episode helped to "shape [Clark into] the man he has become". Michael Duffy, in the chapter "Sacrifice or Salvation? Smallville's Heroic Survival amid Changing Television Trends" of the book called "The Smallville Chronicles: Critical Essays on the Television Series", called the episode "momentous". Furthermore, he argued that the presence of clips at Jonathan's funeral from "Reckoning" in the eighth season premiere "Odyssey" helped to "subtly resituate and creatively reboot the "Smallville" universe" during the show's later life.
