Hope Annette O Toole the towns mayor has been the glue that holds the small town together. O Toole says she enjoys her character because Hope is nOT boring. In season 4 Hope had a challenging time recovering from her head injury from the car accident she was in. The injury caused a ton of frustration for her. However, by the end of the season, she appeared to be on the mend. As a result O Toole says she believes the character will return to her roots being the towns mayor and being in the thick of everything.


I would like to see her  and I believe this is going to happen  be more of a mayor be more involved in her work OToole told The List.  We see her walking around showing up and she can go anywhere. After all Hopes no holds bar attitude and wit drew the Smallville actor to the role in the first place. We all know that Hollywood has an age problem. In the past as soon as an actor turned a certain age  she was regulated to elderly or sideline roles. O Toole who is currently 70 says everything about Hope shatters those stereotypes.
