Unlike some fans I actually like Supergirl been a huge supporter of the show since Season 1 Episode 1 The Pilot. I have not always liked the writing on the show but it is what it is. My favorite Seasons of Supergirl are Seasons 1 and 2 but did not like Season 3 and the 1st half of Season 4 , the back half of Season 4 was good once Lex Luthor came on the show and Season 5 was just ok. I've always like the cast including Melissa Benoist as Supergirl / Kara Zor-EL (Kara Danvers) they may not always get the best material to write with but they always do the best the can in the roles. Yes the way Supergirl sometimes handle Superman on the show not always the best but did love their team up at the beginning of Season 2 and love Tyler and Melissa as Clark and Kara. Hope someday Supergirl does make a guest appearance on Superman & Lois. Those are my thoughts on Supergirl and can't wait for the final season !!!Kenny Kraly Jr.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-56559086378385255012020-10-08T13:12:11.719-04:002020-10-08T13:12:11.719-04:00Hello from a french fan of supergirl,

It was completely unexpected, but his pitch perfect interpretation of this iconic super villain was a revelation!<br /><br />The good news is, Ms Benoist wasn't the first Supergirl, and hopefully, she won't be the last. <br /><br />This just clears the way for <b>"SUPERGIRL: <i>The MOVIE."</i></b><br /><br />Scrimmagenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-76107720578366621912020-09-25T17:06:49.184-04:002020-09-25T17:06:49.184-04:00Six seasons is great, off you go Melissa, with my ...Six seasons is great, off you go Melissa, with my thanks! I’m also in the camp that says just stop the show without giving the character a conclusion - let Supergirl still be fighting crime in National City. It’s not like the other shows are likely to be around more than a few more years. <br /><br />I’ve enjoyed the character of Supergirl often, but the teen angst, the fact characters are so emotionally dense a lot of the time, for the sale of drama... I won’t miss that. I agree there’s too much of the other characters - J’onn should have left a couple of years back when he got the detective agency, and I get tired of Alex’s love life. But I love Lena and Eve and Eliza and Winn... loads of great characters. We are indeed lucky to have had a quality show for so long. <br /><br />And a PS to John from England, I come from about an hour’s drive from Hartlepool too - Seaham, and I was born near Peterlee.

Schedules permitting, it would be nice to see appearances by Mehcad Brooks, Jeremy Jordan and other former cast members. I'd also like to see another Midvale show before the end. And hopefully the door will be open for Melissa to show up as Supergirl on the new Lois and Superman show.<br /><br />The show isn't perfect (what is?) but it did make Supergirl more visible to the general public. Thanks to the show, we even got new Supergirl material from Sterling Gates-the Mxyzptlk episode and that 4 issue mini series.Professor Feetlebaumnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-43747060141772806692020-09-24T19:34:25.751-04:002020-09-24T19:34:25.751-04:00"Also, with the Superman show on the way, IDK..."Also, with the Superman show on the way, IDK but I can't help but get this feeling that, there's this unspoken assumption, 'oh we've got Superman now, we don't need you Kara.'"<br /><br />It's rather easy for one to think this, but the corporate reasoning in this case gets a bit more murky. Because the scenario that seems to have unfolded here is a bit of a repeat of how Supergirl got moved off of CBS after one season....in effect, it's because of a shuffling of the suits at the executive level. <br /><br />Nina Tassler was the programming exec that originally ordered and shepherded the Supergirl TV series to its premiere on the Eye network. But then, shortly after the premiere, she left the company. The show then became an orphan piece of programming that Tassler's replacement(s) at the net really didn't want to be responsible for....which is why the net took so long to eventually decide to offer it to The CW. Luckily, at The CW, there were already creative types in place who knew how to nurture and market superhero fare. <br /><br />Susan Rovner leaving WB-TV next month for a top position at NBCUniversal is sort of a repeat scenario of the programming shuffle that happened in the wake of Supergirl's first season. Her abrupt exit is apparently having a ripple effect, as industry insiders had widely assumed that Susan would be next in line for Peter Roth's job at WB-TV. But that's not happening now, and the company is still scrambling to reposition itself in the midst of a organization change that was already occurring when she made her plans known earlier this month. <br /><br />Since Susan Rovner was responsible for a lot of programming initiatives at WB-TV (including Supergirl, which her hubby Robert has been shepherding since Season One), there was bound to be some fallout from her departure. <br /><br />KET KEThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13797904604074311480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-81589006055275739232020-09-24T12:23:58.305-04:002020-09-24T12:23:58.305-04:00I'll always be grateful to MB, she was Supergi...I'll always be grateful to MB, she was Supergirl's TV "Proof of Concept" her success with the role will make it that much easier for the next girl in the next project to inhabit the role of Kara Zor El. But then I'd always predicted that if you put Supergirl down into a TV series with some muscle behind it, she'd thrive as a character, she was made for TV from 1959 on down. I'll miss this show when its gone, I tried as much as possible to watch it in "real time" weekly....I frankly figured at one point we'd be lucky if it lasted three years and 75 episodes, but they've managed to double that pessimistic projection on my part. <br />MB owes us nothing, she has a husband and a kid now, commuting to Vancouver for the next 2 years probably was never in the cards, she hit a home run with Supergirl, we can ask no more of her.<br /><br />JLGAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-89434873578460512912020-09-24T10:16:14.877-04:002020-09-24T10:16:14.877-04:00I'm sad to see it go, but six seasons is a goo...I'm sad to see it go, but six seasons is a good run. Though I really hope they don't go for a heroic death, and I hope they don't send her into the future. Partly, they've done that A LOT in different media. Also, with the Superman show on the way, IDK but I can't help but get this feeling that, there's this unspoken assumption, 'oh we've got Superman now, we don't need you Kara.' Plus, if she did go to the future, feel like she'd be leaving a lot of people who care about her ie Alex behind. <br /><br />I could be reading too much into it, but I'd rather they ended on a note that Kara's adventures are continuing in National City, we're just not following every week now.
