[spoilers for Smallville coming up] Yeah, it's really *really* slashy. I especially like the Luthors, who just flirt across the board, especially Lionel. One of Glover's acting methods is touching a lot, I suppose in order to make the reality around him grounded or to react to it - or just cause h knows how slashy he is. He put so much subtext into his interactions with Martha, they turned it into canon (unless they'd planned it all a season in advance? Who knows...?).
Bu the show was definitely not proud of its slashiness, the writers bitched about it, and probably intentionally wrote fewer scenes in which Clark and Lex talk about their feelings (used o have those in most episodes) to discourage it.
Dark Angel Jensen... hmm... might have to try to watch that show 8again*. Perhaps just his scenes...
