Informal group consensus doesn't matter. Just because a lot of people think something makes it true.

He had a chance to stop the Daxamite invasion TWICE. Once when he could have taken his rightful place leading his people and changing their mindset but he was selfish and only thought of what he wanted. He had another chance in Lena's lab when he could have stopped his mother but didn't. It was Kara that made that sacrifice, she was the one along with Lena, Winn and ironically Lilllian that stopped the invasion. As I recall he pretty much stood around being helpful as ever
His first instinct is to run away. He wanted Kara to run away with him leaving her family, friends, the whole planet at the mercy of his mother and her army. If he knew Kara at all he'd know due could never watch another home be destroyed. No, I think Kara deserves a better man, an honourable man. Someone that trusts and respects her
That's my opinion on the matter. I have spoken to a couple very nice Karamel shippers who weren't happy with the way he was written on the show. But then the showtunners don't fill you with much hope when they come out with the reason they did about why they dumped Kara/James. Putting aside the extreme lack of chemistry that was a really stupid reason
Anyway I don't think any of us are gonna change our minds as to what kind of person he is so another topic perhaps. I don't read the comics so I don't know any of the characters in the Supergirl universe, but what characters would folks like to see crop up on the show? Heroes or villainssigpic

"The Night Shift". I think its handling of not only coming out, but a gay relationship was the best I have ever seen. But not that you'd relate too much to it, when I said gay, I meant not lesbian but gay. Alex and Maggie have always felt off and wrong, and not in the sense that I'd rather not see a LGBT relationship but in the sense that I was just not convinced that they actually belonged together.Originally posted by Falcon Horus View Post
Their struggles focused too much on being a couple in love versus being a couple that goes through both personal and interpersonal struggles. That last part is where The Night Shift really does it well in my book.

Not quite certain want "lgbtqurs" are...but I would like to know which fantasy world you live in? There are LGBTQ people in "nearly all the other shows during prime time on the other networks"? Tonight, I have five shows recording on my DVR...only one has a lesbian couple. Tomorrow, I have four shows recording...there are no LGBTQ people. Wednesday six shows...no LGBTQ people. Thursday four shows...no LGBTQ people. Friday 5 shows...one LGBTQ person. Saturday three shows...no LGBTQ people. Sunday...two shows...no LGBTQ people. I have 27 shows recording this week...only 2 shows have LGBTQ people (characters or in Friday's case a host). So, I don't know which orifice you pulled your comment out of, but it wasn't correct by any means.Originally posted by garhkal View PostsigpicComment

And after a couple more episodes there will be zero evident LGBTQ characters in Supergirl either. At least I hope Alex doesn't suddenly realize that she's bisexual after all and starts dating a nice boy to make the likes of garhkal happy.Originally posted by LtColCarter View PostsigpicComment

Well, he's kinda a bad example, and also a good example. Bad, because he was just in a handful of episodes, and his sexuality was just side note. On the other hand, it is a good example, because the said side note was that his genetic reject "parents" kicked him out for being gay, so that people don't forget that this is still happening even in supposedly developed countries like the USA, and not just in Africa or the Middle East.Originally posted by garhkal View Post
What was impossible just fifty years ago, it's now fairly common that nobody kills you or beats you up for loving who you love regardless of "race, colour and creed". I'm sure another decade or two it will add gender too.
I'm sure that the garhkals of the sixties were as outraged for having Uhura on the Enterprise (also Sulu, and Checkov), but Kirk kissing Uhura in an episode was a big step for American television. Unfortunately there were also a lot of steps back and further in the past decades, exactly because of the garhkals they wanted to cater to.
Edit:
Something like this:

The only shows I watch that you have listed above are on the CW. I stopped watching The 100 after season 2 because it got a little boring. For someone with such a negative view of LGBTQ individuals...you sure seem to know which shows have them on. I noticed you forgot to include Will & Grace on NBC. Don't forget to add it to your line up.Originally posted by garhkal View Post
I hope this isn't the case.Originally posted by pjt View PostsigpicComment
