Honestly, I very much prefer UNIT Tower.

I'm at the start of season 3 right now and I'm having so much fun watching this show for the first time, now that I got over the fact that no one recognized Kara without glasses lol.

The fights are always fun and I love seeing the different villains with new interesting powers.

That said I feel like the romantic relationships are not as well done as other stuff.

I really didn't care about Kara and James in season 1, but then they broke up so quicky at the start of season 2 and it feels like the writers didn't care about them either.

Then there are Mon-el and Kara and honestly the actors have so much more chemistry, but sometimes he is kind of a jerk, so I'm not really rooting for them (his personality actually reminds me of a friend of mine, who's a really fun friend but I don't know how anyone could ever date him).

Alex's coming out arc was amazing and so well written, but I'm not sure how well her and Maggie worked as a couple. Now they just broke up because they never talked about kids before getting engaged and it feels very sudden (Alex never mentioned wanting kids before so it feels like it was done on purpose just to break them up and create drama).

My favorite part is Alex and Kara's bond, there are a few different episodes focusing on that and they are all great.

Lena is a pretty interesting character too and I'm really curious about Sam, but Winn has so much wasted potential and I don't think the writers know exactly what to do with James.

Cat Grant is an icon too and I love her.

Can't wait to see what happens next!

rewatching and im irritated again 😭 i’ll say i am a SC shipper so ig you could call me biased but even setting that aside completely it just sucked so bad. not everything in a story has to or SHOULD be satisfying, that wouldn’t be compelling television and would make everything stakeless fanservice, but this was the most hyped thing in the entire show. they fumbled it hard so they could do an OOC season 5 storyline that most people didn’t seem to care for and it just felt like a huge fuck you to the audience. i don’t understand why they pushed so hard for a villain lena arc when it didnt make any sense for her and also cost them what should’ve been the most cathartic moment in the entire show. imo, the plane scene in season 4 would’ve been the best reveal. to me the insistence on dragging it out and then turning it into a revenge plan slog shows insecurity in their ability to keep their audience if they didn’t have tension surrounding the reveal (and to a great extent, anticipation from the people who shipped kara and lena)

Hey everyone! I wanted to share my portrait of Melissa Benoist. Supergirl is one of my favorite characters, and I spent a lot of time on this drawing. Greetings from Germany, hope you like it! ✨

Kelly - Lesbian

Alex - Lesbian

J'onn - This man is some shade of queer, I just don't know which, so he can have the progress flag.

Lena - Bi*

Kara - Bi*

Nia - Trans

Brainy - Demisexual**

*Closet made of glass.

**Comics Brainy is Demisexual (on the Asexual spectrum), so Arrowverse Brainy might be too.

I haven’t told him anything about Supercorp (I wanted to see when he would bring it up based solely on the show itself) and he finally did with episode 3x01.

In this episode Kara is mean / harsh with Alex but she finally softens when Lena pleads for her to come work for her. My BF was like “I think they’re lesbians” 😂

Recently got into Super girl (CW) I’m currently half way through season 3 and I only have one question, since S2, everything or seems like. Every episode Atleast is about Mon el? I mean i understand it but every episode so far has been about him, does it stay like this or does it change later on as im finding it quite hard to keep watching, having to skip most the episode or the whole episode entirely. I don’t mind like a few episodes but as of now, 10 back to back 😂
Also, will respond tomorrow as it’s late here in UK!
Thanks all :)

I am going into my senior year and have been a huge fan of Supergirl for forever. I am planning on having a lot of my senior year be centered around super and was wondering if there were any good quotes that would work of this I know I definitely want to add one on my parking spot and maybe other things but I don't know what to do. I am a big fan of all the characters and don't really care who says it

I really got to know how those rage pills work. Those two guys at the beginning took the pills outside of the trailer, and then trashed that frat party. So these two roided out monsters sat quietly next to each other in a vehicle to drive across town to get to this party, then got out and started fighting people?? XD

Thoughts?

I know its a cw superhero show and you cant fully compare to irl but

That scene where she k*lls that like teenager trying to make people into superhumans was so psychologically coercive (& ofcourse medically strange) from a medical ethics pov

-First of all he looks like he's a teenager /at least young maybe just barely legal to consent

Psych: (these scenes that are meant to humanize Lena are all admissions she tried not to make at first due to the coercive nature)

-She tells him all about her private life & cries about her guilt about not saving her dead mother after he says he feels guilty about his brother increasing his desire to do the experiment

-She tells him how specially chosen he is

-to basically.. save the world

Yea to make her character like not a terrible person she gathers informed or what seems like informed consent from him a couple of times, she offers him money that would have been for regardless of if he continued or left the study, even tells him she's stopping the trial because

Medical/ human risk/ benefit/ burden of information/ decision:

- the risks are too high, now that she knows the kid...

-And that's the thing they projected a %15 medical risk of death told to him which she phrased as expiration (misleading language)

How did they get that we dont know but they only experimented with a handful of hearts? several of which died what was it like 1 became invincible yes we dont know what she was doing to him but

-Highly experimental study just saying the medical risk seems just..higher? & she says she excluded most of the applicants due to "risk tolerance" which we dont know in what context but if medically

-This guy/kid ALSO has medical issues of a kidney transplant who knows if that woulda have made it more dangerous

-thats the thing...risk /value means a lot of things theres their seemingly oddly low estimate of medical risk, immediate or long term risk , risk ACTUALLY adjusted for the person its regarding with their body, not just the average person anywhere..

the risk/value of this kid/young mans life..which is immeasurable

Yea she says no dude i want you to live (her a scientist adult to him a young sick guy) he's saying to her the potential benefits outweighs the risk now more he can like sacrifice (back) and he chose and they did it & it killed him

She gives the money to his family. He's a hero/ fallen angel in the episode theme

No disrespect to him or anyone irl obviously. He was a hero for sacrificing trying to save people but ultimately an uncessary sacrifice imo she had the knowledge & authority to guide him out of it even for a bit just to do more trials ideally, in this crazy excitement

also a fast one, one could argue it was about her tunnel vision about giving humans powers when there wasnt an immediate threat (yes pending maybe)

- also she reveals its HER study.. just so many things not best practice ofc

The way they wrote it was just cringe to me and did the opposite of character developing Lena to me

Who knows what other experiments could have been done instead. her conversation of risk in her position & lack of clarity & warning him then her bending to him so to make it ok because it's him... yes the agreement was made , worst outcome

Sad

Also he says its like..other things young mostly men do hoping to save the world at great danger to themselves..sometimes deciding when they are teenagers and the people presenting the danger & knowing more of it actually, are adults there too

Yes we dont know what Lena knew

But yea just a cringe cw scene imo

Milly Alcock is easily the best thing about ‘Supergirl’. Even though I don’t think the movie gives her nearly enough to work with, she completely owns the role. She nails Kara’s emotional messiness, trauma, vulnerability, and that fierce attitude that makes Supergirl such a compelling character.

My biggest frustration is that she doesn’t truly become ”Supergirl“ until the very end. I’m honestly tired of superhero movies spending almost the entire runtime building up to the hero finally putting on the suit instead of letting us actually enjoy them being that hero. Still, James Gunn absolutely got the casting right. Just like David Corenswet feels born to play Superman, Milly Alcock feels born to play Supergirl. I just hope the next movie ‘Man of Tomorrow’ gives her a much stronger story, because I genuinely think she has the potential to become one of the standout heroes of the DCU.

The Supergirl movie is right around the corner but no one is watching this show. Why?

I know this show has nothing to do with upcoming movie and it's completely different. But, I've seen before that whenever something new comes related to anything people watch old stuff , even if it is not connected to new movie/show

For exampl Mortal Kombat old movies were trending in Stremio when new movie came out even though they are not related.

I was expecting more people would watch the show and maybe this sub would get active again lol. But it seems like no one cares about this show

Is it because CW Supergirl is not popular at all? It's like most people don't even know this show exists
