Terence Stamp voices Jor-El in the Smallville series, and he also played General Zod in Superman II.
In the episode where Aquaman appears, he says, "We should start a JLA," (Junior Lifeguards Association). This is funny because he and Superman are later on a team Justice League of America.
In the Episode "Flash" when Clark confronts the Flash in his hotel room, he reads off the fake I.D.`s Jay Garrick, Barry Allen and Wally West. Those are the secret identities of the first three men to be called the Flash. Also, this Flash says his name is Bart, like Bart Allen, the teen hero formerly known as Impulse and currently being called "Kid Flash."

Despite many hours of outdoor farm work, Clark never gets a tan or a sunburn. In fact, Tom Welling, who plays Clark, is contractually forbidden from getting a tan, because the show creators were not sure if Kryptonians could tan
Clark always wears blue and red clothes (or at least one of these colors). No surprise that when he got his Superman costume, he chose those same colors.
