Supergirl (CW)

So I tried this again the past couple weeks, and I gave it a legit shot made it 12 episodes.

The good; Martian Manhunter is pretty cool, the actor playing him is probably the best actor on the show. Him or...the guy playing Jimmy Olsen, which brings me to another good: I like this Jimmy way more than comics Jimmy, I always thought comics Jimmy was a bit of a t**t. Her sister is ok. Her best friend has his moments, though he gives a "Jimmy is hot vibe" more than a "I like girls vibe" so him liking Supergirl is weird. Lol

The Bad: cover your eyes Joe...every episode is just the same thing over and over. Best friend wants Kara, notices she likes Jimmy and gets sad. Awkward moment between Jimmy and Kara, Kara runs away, Jimmy looks confused. Boss comes in yells at Kara, Kara tries to make boss happy, boss is sorta nice by end of episode. Over the top boss is over the top btw. Supergirl fights bad guy, gets beaten easily questions if she is good enough beats bad guy, she is good enough...till the next episode. Her shooting lasers out her eyes looks so bad, and Red Tornado...well just el oh el

The worst: Supergirl...this actress is dreadfully bad, no range at all, her doing any action scene results in her making a face like she's about to take a ****, and the worst punches I've ever seen in my life. The character is so self absorbed...anyone talks to her about a problem they are having and her response is, "before/wheb my planet blew up..." Or "when my mom died" It's annoying AF. She needs constant reassurance that she is awesome, also annoying AF.

When this first came out I thought, "Jessie Graff (her stunt double) would be the perfect Supergirl" since she's crazy athletic (check her Ninja Warrior runs) and sooo fine. But she's not an actress so I get it. But instead they picked your typical hollywood "pretty" zombie to play the part. Ugh

All the journalism editors are over the top. Perry White, Jonah Jameson, Cat Grant.
 
I'm wondering if this had something to do with her having to basically move to Vancouver to film Supergirl?
 
Today the CW gave an early 2017 renewal to Supergirl picking up the DC/CW show for a 3rd Season.

Supergirl originally debuted on CBS before moving to The CW this past Fall.

The number of episodes want be made official until May ahead of the network upfronts.

Been wanting to see this since Dean Cain was cast in the "Pilot" episode. :rock:

The CW has announced that Teri Hatcher has been cast in a recurring role in Supergirl. Hatcher who played Lois Lane to Dean Cain's Clark Kent in ABC's 1990s Lois & Clark, The New Adventures of Superman series, will appear in multiple episodes of Supergirl; character details are scarce, but she'll eventually become the season's big villain.

Maybe she will be the one holding Jermiah Danvers at Cadmus?

Just started watching the 1st season of this on NF. So far, I'm up to episode 4 and it's not too bad. I do like how they are showing how she's "coming into herself" so to speak and not just going out and kicking everyone's backside starting off.

Not sure I'm digging the whole hunky Jimmy "I prefer James" Olsen thing. I grew up on the Superman motion pictures and I always see him and that geeky dude.

But so far, I'll keep watching it.
 
This latest episode was informative but I feel like the last few episodes have been very soap opera-ish. Too much lovey dovey nonsense. We need less qq more pew pew.
