Chris: Henry. James. Olsen.
David: Yeah. Henry James Olsen. Why did he even go by James when his younger brother’s name was James?
Chri's: Is his dad George Foreman? Because that’s the only way that even makes any sense at all. Seriously, this is the dumbest thing in the history of the show. They want to have Jimmy Olsen, but they also want to have a younger Jimmy Olsen in reserve so they can match up with whatever the hell their vision of the Post-Smallville story of Superman is, so their solution: DOUBLE OLSEN. And the amazing thing is, that’s not the only time they’ve pulled this nonsense! Remember when Cat Grant showed up at the beginning of Season 10, and had to explain that she wasn’t the Cat Grant that already existed from Season 9?
