SUPERGIRL: Season One

[monitor_ep]

I am going to say either Mon-El or Streaky.

I was thinking of the horse or monkey. Can't remember their names.

The horse was Comet

My daughter came racing into my office with "what other people come from Krypton?" my answer was "a lot".

[MegoSteve]

Please be Streaky!

Without giving anything away about tonight's episode my guess is Krypto

[Earth 2 Chris]

I like the show, but they've really dug themselves a hole with this storyline. National City being the only target for everything on this scale has become a fairly bad joke. There is some clever character dialog and some great acting, but I think they reached a bit too high with the scope of the threats. I hope they get a second season to shake out the bugs. It seemed sure to get one at one time...now not so much.

I'll be sure to watch in case this is the final episode ever. I won't be surprised if the show is cancelled but it is disappointing because it had potential to be a much better show. Melissa Benoist is great as both Kara and Supergirl and is the shows greatest strength. If it is the end I hope it's failure doesn't damage her career.

Is tonight the season finale?

Tonight is indeed the season finale. It may also be the series finale as CBS hasn't "officially" officially renewed it. Sometime back they (CBS) stated that all of their sophomore shows had been renewed but stopped short of listing Supergirl among them. Another recent article that I read just the day before yesterday listed all the shows being renewed and Supergirl was not on that list either.

I'm grown tired of this Supergirl show, it's really dumb, dumb, dumb...and can't stand Cat or Olsen.

You know what I dislike most about this show? How they demean Superman himself...every chance they get, time after time...oh, Kara, you did something than not even your cousin could do...oh Supergirl, you are much faster than Superman, oh Supergirl, you defeated that dude that Superman could never defeat, blah, blah, and blah...

You have a dozen rogue Kryptonians flying around...and they are hiding like little weaklings, unable to do anything but strike in the shadows...and it's always small time stuff.

Benoist makes a great Supergirl...but the show is fast losing my interest.

At this point, I would not shed a tear if it's cancelled.

If it someone does make a comeback in the WB, it better fire its current writing staff...and get some people who actually think things through.

Thought this episode was badly written. Why only National City? Why not the whole country or world? Why would Max save Cat? Why is Superman affrcted-the excuse given was stupid? Who was the friend I don't remember that jumped and why couldn't Supergirl catch all of them? Why is her sister so stupid?
Too many holes in this one!

[LonnieFisher]

They need to kill off 95% of the cast, and it might be able to be salvaged.

So now that we have one episode left in the first (last/only?) season, I'm worried about this show. Coming from the same creative team as Arrow and Flash and as much as I want to REALLY like this show, it's lacking for me. While I think the flying effects are usually spot-on, a lot of the other effects (costumes, sets, make-up, etc.) are not up to par with the Arrow and Flash. And, IMHO, the acting overall is just kind of hammy. I don't know. I'm still hanging in there but I hope if it does get a second season, they do some re-working of some stuff. It deserves to be a success.

The episode felt a bit padded. It had some great moments, but it felt like a one-story episode spread to two for it's epicness, and the fact that it's the finale.
