SUPERGIRL: Season One

[phil]

I'm glad to hear its coming back. I do hope some retooling is done beyond just relocating to Canada. The series has potential so I hope they build on what they got right this season.

I hope since the move to Canada that they will overhaul the show and drop the working at Catco. All Supergirl needs to do is work at the D.E.O..

I'm glad that SUPERGIRL is getting a second season, especially with the move being made to The CW. If everyone involved is smart, they will definitely find a way to bring Kara into the Arrow/Flash/LOTverse. I'm thinking that by having something HUGE happen in the season opener or one of the early episodes, they could easily bring Kara, her sister and J'onn J'onzz into to existing CW/DCverse, thereby allowing the show to have a quasi-reboot and dispensing with some of the baggage from the first season. If Kara were to exist in a universe WITHOUT a Superman, then she could really shine and become the hero she needs to be without living in the shadow of her cousin. Perhaps other's could migrate from the original Supergirl universe by way of Vibe or The Flash or, who knows, they could introduce Harbinger or Pariah from CRISIS into the mix to act as a dimensional one-way portal from the original Supergirl-verse to the CW/DCverse...

I wouldn't be surprised if they retool it quite a bit. Also, some of the cast may not want to move to Vancouver.

CBS and WB are in talks about what to do with the show.

Both sides have a potential out. Moonves could push 'Supergirl' to The CW, which as it happens is a joint venture between CBS and Warners (Moonves and his team are responsible for programming the network). Such a switch would make perfect sense. The youth-skewing CW already has “The Flash” and other superhero franchises (there was a crossover between 'Supergirl' and 'The Flash' this season), and its audience is much more aligned with 'Supergirl] than is CBS’ much-grayer viewership.

Since the show cost $3 million an episode I can see CBS passing on a second season. I would like it to get moved over to the CW but with a status change. Instead of Supergirl, retitle the show Powergirl, Agent of D.E.O. Powergirl could be the sole survivor of Krypton. I would keep here original history in which her rocket took longer to get to Earth and when she gets her she is in her early 20's. I would have here brought to the D.E.O. and getting trained as a special agent.

I really like the idea about Supergirl working for the D.E.O. and with Martian Manhunter. I did not like to carbon copy of working at a news-company and having two supporting cast groups. She was barely there to keep her job, always leaving for most of the day to go to work at the D.E.O. and fight crime. You could keep the cast at the D.E.O. include Cameron Chase, Nemesis, Sarge Steel, just name a few.

I have finished watching yet on demand, but overall I've enjoyed it. It's different and that that's not bad thing. If everything has the same tone,it all becomes retread after awhile IMO. The fact that I'm not a hardcore Superman fan might make it easier to digest for me.

Just for the record, and although this show is "roll up the eyes" viewing for me...I find Melissa Benoist extremely likable, if it wasn't for her...I would've bailed out a loooooooong time ago...but just because of her, and her alone...I watched the entire series. Having said that, the Supergirl show is still too cringe worthy for my personal taste. I prefer the Flash, and believe me, that one has had plenty of stupid moments too...but I like the supporting cast in Flash way more...especially the inept Star Labs crew, ok, that was quite passive-aggressive of me, lol. But Wells is a fascinating character to watch, aside from Grant Gustin, actor Tom Cavanagh is just as essential...those two make the show...and of course, Cisco, for the court jester comedy routine, lol. Danielle Panabaker as Dr Caitlin Snow is also a solid cast member. Supergirl has no such cast, they are all annoying to no end...although David Harewood as Hank/Martian Manhunter has eased up a bit, I was beginning to like him, For him at first was quite unbearable. Calista Flockhart/Cat Grant shows potential, just make her more human, she could potentially be a great character. Winn is decent. The rest? Meh, even hottie Alex was getting on my friggin nerves. Don't get me started on "James" Olsen or the blatant disrespect for the Man of Steel again...I'm warning you, lol...

Watching Supergirl makes me happy. Corny and all. It reminds me of the silver age when comics didn't take themselves so seriously. I hope CW picks it up if CBS cancels it. More Crossovers. Yay! Flash/Arrow/DC Legends/Supergirl characters all in one big story. That would be cool.

Yeah, I didn't watch it religiously but I loved it's vibe.

[WannabeMego]

I enjoyed Supergirl...I think there were more Good Episodes then Bad...Some Episodes just felt like 'Throw Aways'.

I'm so tired of the Darkness & Negativity that surrounds our typical TV programming...I hope they can find the right balance of Family-Friendly & Strong Female Role Model without falling victim to Camp & Cliche'.

I'm with you on that. If CBS does drop it I really hope CW steps up to the plate, retools the show and puts it on their schedule. I think more crossovers would be great! While I do like some of the aspects that make it a simpler, more family oriented show, I think they need to look at changing some stuff if they want it to have staying power.

Can anyone explain why Supergirl is not on the same Earth as Flash and Arrow?

Who knows how they landed on that decision but I think it was an epic fail. So Sups and Supergirl will only ever meet up with the Arrow and Flash if they travel to another earth? Well that's exciting. NOT. I read somewhere that the producers/creators of the shows said it wouldn't work to have them on the same earth due in part to the fact that they had never mentioned Superman on either Arrow or the Flash. To bring them up now people would wonder why they are now just mentioning them. Whatever. My thought was "So?" I have a second cousin on my mom's side I haven't mentioned in years. Doesn't mean she isn't still out there. This was one of their lamer ideas IMHO and if you follow this reasoning, then what Earth is WW and GL on?

Ok. Rant over.
