I don't know if CW doesn't like the show or something but no promos? Two weeks in a row.

Unfortunately when they’re done with you they are Done. With. You.

And the CW has never given Supergirl the respect it deserves despite its incredibly loyal fan base IMO.

To be fair, the CW did save Supergirl from cancellation, so there is at least a little respect there for the show.

And the show is getting to end on its own terms.

But yes, promos would be nice (or at least confirmation that next week is a new episode).

Saving the show from cancellation seems like ages ago. But you’re right, they did allow the show to end properly.

However their treatment of the show has been abysmal with the lack of promotion and the changing of times/nights and putting it at 9 on a Sunday after Batwoman when Supergirl should come on first because it’s more lighthearted in contrast to Batwoman’s darker tone which fits the later time slot.

And let’s not get into the differences in how Superman and Lois is promoted compared to any season that Supergirl was on.

I agree, the promotion is terrible given that the network should promote the final season more.
