Supergirl TV series: News/General Discussion

[ecgordon]

Sounds like are judging it before you even seen it. That seems premature

We've got the pilot to judge, and that was pretty bad. I'm convinced someone within the network leaked it so that they could get some feedback about how to tweak the concept of the show.

I actually kinda liked it, but then again I'm a sucker for super-hero anything

[ecgordon]

The only thing I'm a sucker for is a well-told story, no matter the genre. There are times I feel I'm watching entirely different shows than other people, and I also sometimes wonder why I continue to watch certain shows because they aren't wowing me the way they seem to be doing for others.

That's still not enough for me. I always give a show a few episodes as pilots are notorious for being bad

[VampyreWraith]

I haven't watched the pilot, but I also usually give a show at least a few episodes (especially if it's in a genre that I really like).

But still, not a bad place to start. I hope they explore things in a bit more darker depth like they've done for Flash to make it appealing. She's supposed to be the angriest DC superhero right? I hope they take that aspect of her and include it in the show. But so far, she has little to be angry about. It's that sorta thing that makes me worry. But I'll be reserving final thoughts until I see a few more episodes myself.

I'm going to reserve judgement until I see the show.

Pity the Exex that leaked it didn't get the others, to leave it up.

The pilot was leaked? And I missed it!? Dang it!

The pilot felt like one giant exposition...not really a bad thing since that's what they are supposed to be. But it felt too obvious. But hopefully the season would be better. I am looking forward to this show though. That said...it does show great potential. You'll find a way to....enjoy it.

I agree it does have great potential. I hope it is good! Still frustrating that I missed the leaked pilot.

I felt the same way, as when i found out about that it WAS leaked, by that time, it had already been taken down.

[ecgordon]

It's still available if you know where to look.

[LtColCarter]

Well, I finally saw the pilot, and I didn't feel it was all that horrible. Although, there is a lot of room for improvement...I do feel the show has potential.

[garhkal]

Agreed. Though i would hope that we get MORE than her fellow homeworld's prisoners being her "enemy of the week"s..

[LtColCarter]

In the beginning...that might be all that we get. However, for the show to survive...it will have to branch out.

That's kind of the problem having a character as powerful as Superman or Supergirl, you're very limited as to who you can get who can prove to be an adequate enemy for them. Superman has the benefit of having Lex, but Supergirl doesn't really have as many memorable adversaries. Though I reckon bringing Amanda Waller into Supergirl as more of a full on antagonist wouldn't hurt.

Oh oh oh! I just thought of something awesome.

We know from Arrow and Flash that no mention has ever been made of aliens or Superman, which you'd kinda think they would have done if Meta Humans were such a surprise, so my guess is that Supergirl is in one of the parallel Earths, so what if at the end of season 1 she gets sucked into the Arrowverse Earth and is stuck there, so she actually becomes the first Kryptonian superhero and actually is able to take the place of Superman on Arrow's Earth.

Intriguing. That might put an interesting spin on things.

I know right? It's how I'd write it... But that probably means it won't happen cos TV writers rarely go with my awesome ideas.

[jelgate]

A big problem is the shows are on different networks
