SUPERGIRL: Season One

[monitor_ep]

Nice update:

* Laura Vandervoort is to play Indigo

* There is to be an episode that will use the story "For The Man Who Has Everything", this should where Kara is under the Black Mercy and she is dreaming that Krypton did not explode and she is still there with a young Kal-El.

* Lexi Alexander is going to play Master Jailer (forceful and unrelenting jail guard on Fort Rozz, Master Jailer showed no mercy. Now on Earth, he is hellbent on catching all of the Fort Rozz escapees and brutally bringing them to justice.)

* Hope Lauren will play Bizarro Supergirl

Second best new:

New CBS president Glenn Geller raised the possibility of a crossover between his network’s “Supergirl” and the CW’s DC superhero drama “The Flash.”

“I have to be really careful what I say here,” Geller said when asked by reporters during the Television Critics Association winter press tour. “Watch and wait and see what happens.”

The answer is in stark contrast to previous answers given by former CBS president Nina Tassler, who always downplayed the possibility of a crossover. (yahoo tv)

Personally, I'm of the opinion that both networks would be foolish to dismiss the possibility of a crossover since they are supposed to have a shared universe. They don't even have to make it a full crossover event if they just want to test the waters. I could easily see J'onn J'onzz show up on The Flash, especially if one of the spatial rifts they accidentally created opened in National City. With Arrow, it might be a little more difficult to cultivate a semi-crossover since Team Arrow does not normally deal with metahumans (although it seems like they are going to be the show to breach the walls of DC's magical/mystical elements).I could see maybe Oliver Queen coming to National City to meet with Maxwell Lord (d-bag that he is) and perhaps some threat would arise that would force him into he Arrow gear. There are an infinite number of avenues they could take; let's just hope they actually decide to choose at least one...

I may be in the minority but I like the idea of superheroes NOT sharing the same universe.

^^^^^^^^^^^^
Cool. CoolCoolCool.

Tonight's episode still has 15 minutes to go and I'm finding it very tedious. I hope the Max Lord character is finished with by the end of the season.

I wish they would stop name dropping Superman throughout the show. Unless he's going to show up, then let's leave it go. Last week 8 evil Kryptonians attack and it's left to the rookie and the out of practice martian. I can see not getting involved with say Toyman, but the others?
Tonight though I liked the doll nods to Super Friends and Superman Adventures Toyman.
Max Lord is getting annoying but he's starting to become Kara's Luthor.
And Kara's sister cleans up nice!

^Agree on most accounts. I do give them props for shaking up the status quo with the ending. Didn't see that coming!

Here is the first image of the White Martian in Supergirl Strange Visitor From Another Planet.

If you slow it done you can see more green Martians.

One of the best episodes last night. After coming off as a block of wood in the first few shows, "Hank Henshaw" is becoming one of my favorites.

Have last night's recorded, but haven't watched it yet. I was too enthralled with THE X-FILES.

In comics, these stories are fine and fun. But it starts getting a tad silly on TV and movies.

The Martian storyline.

First...Mars is too bloody close to Earth. Krypton was really far (and destroyed), that's fine. But Mars is still here and is one of the naked eye planets.

So humans were unaware of an existing Martian civilization? A civilization that had big white Martians attacking small green Martians?

And if the big white Martians are aggressive, super strong, and number in the millions...why have they not invaded Earth yet?

The story works in comics...but find it rather silly in the TV show.

I know, I know, suspend disbelief, Hector, just enjoy the show...yeah, I am, still watching Supergirl, don't worry...Ill keep going along for the ride, lol...
