Mark Pedowitz was pretty confident at the TCA presentation that The CW couldn't be more pleased with all of their superhero offerings at this time, all of which seem reflective of the net's current "Dare to Defy" self-imagery. <br /><br />"But this series has really showcased everything I love about the character and I get to enjoy it for another year."<br /><br />Indeed. I still recall when the executive producers did their first round of interviews for the Supergirl series, and someone had asked 'Why Supergirl?' as if this was some sort of backdoor way of ushering in yet another Superman-centric series. IIRC, the general response among the EPs was more along the lines of, "No, we want to do a series about an iconic female superhero, and so we chose Supergirl". <br /><br />Turns out that Berlanti Productions always had a long-term game plan in mind...and so, here we are. Still going stronger together. <br /><br />KET KEThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13797904604074311480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-23520050175541001352019-02-05T15:54:59.431-05:002019-02-05T15:54:59.431-05:00Benoist is a godsend, as is Chyler Leigh as is (wh...Benoist is a godsend, as is Chyler Leigh as is (when there) Helen Slater.<br />As said, no doubt that the success of the show led to a bigger comic footprint, even in things like DCSHG.<br /><br />I think the purpose of this Crisis is going to be like the comic.

So it has already surpassed Lois & Clark (4 seasons) and Superboy (4 seasons) and it's only behind of Adventures of Superman (6 seasons) and Smallville (10 seasons).<br /><br />Who would have thought in 1986 that Kara Zor-El would have her own tv show which would last longer than at least two Superman shows and will have over one hundred episodes.
