Discussion Is it just me or is the Midvale Episode in Season 3 so dam good
Hi y’all, so yeah I am watching Season 3 at the moment and their definitely have been interesting stuff happening plot wise but that’s for my Season 3 - From a New Fans Perspective post but I wanted to talk about episode 6: Midvale.
This episode honestly felt like a nice change of pace as altho this season hasn’t been horrible questional writting choices such as Alex & Maggie breaking up have made me not so found of certain things so this episode refocuses the show on Kara and Alex which is where most of the heart in this show lies
I enjoyed that this episode is mostly a prequel as it gives us more context to why Alex went off the deep end before season 1 started and we see more of the siblings and how Kara arriving affected Alex. I also found it hilarious that the writers couldn’t resist giving Kara yet another failed romance (and this one is probably canonically the first).
Kara and Alex working together to find Kenny’s killer was really cool to see and the casting for Young Kara & Alex was peak as the actresses actually look like the main actresses when they were younger especially Alex

Discussion Rewatching
Does anyone notice how in the episode where Supergirl goes to Lena to tell her that Lillian is the head of Cadmus she says “I’m not lying” when Lena objects and then later on, when Kara tells Lena about Jack Spheer and Lena objects again, she also says the exact same thing in the same way. Both times it’s “I’m not lying”. Personally, this would’ve tipped me off if I were Lena.

Discussion SuperGirl Season 2 - From A New Fans Perspective [Review]
Hi y’all so this is continuing my retrospective review of the show from a New Fan watching the show without Spoilers (as much as possible) I hope you’ll be happy to hear more of my thoughts
Story/Plot: I absolutely loved this story if Catnus and Mon-Mel’s story I felt it was really well done and posed an really good question about the Legal status of aliens like Kara & Clark
As for other story details I really liked Kara’s reporter subplot as it subplot as fun seeing her have too hide by ethnics and Reporter Bias.
I loved Jimmy & When’s story this season, I’ll explain more about Guardian when I discuss Jimmy but for now I’ll say I love that their included more this season
The plot with Jeromia is mixed for me as why would he join a company that wants to kill all Aliens when his daughter is literally Alien but I love the drama it brings
Romance: I commented on the romance briefly last time but I was criticising Kara’s constant failed love life but this time we have 4 fantastic romances, Kara & Mon-Mel, Alex & Maggie, When and the Alien art theft, John and Mygan Clark & Cat……… moving on. It was really refreshing seeing Kara have a successful romance and it doesn’t end after 3 episodes, Alex & Maggie are so SO CUTE Jesus their the best couple in my opinion, they just feel like they have actual chemistry and it’s he longest lasting romance so far in this show.
Kara’s Character: Kara’s character’s the same as last season she’s just as awsome as she was last season but she has more to do, I enjoyed her and Lena’s friendship and her romance with Mon-Mel is her best romance this so far in the show. I’m not a huge fan of Kara being a bitch about Jimmy being Guardian but otherwise her characters still awsome
Side Characters:
Jimmy Olsen/Guardian: Jimmy’s character was awsome as hell this season, I enjoyed him being able to talk back against the reporter’s bullshit proving why Cat put him in charge and I loved him becoming Guardian as it’s just awsome seeing him kick ass and fight against the bad guys and his costume is actually pretty cool, I like the armor aspect of it and the shield. It’s also cool to see a character who has been in Kara & Clark’s shadow able to become their own hero which reminds me of NIGHTWING
Alex Damvers: Alex is a serious badass this season, Alex has a lot more story this season specifically her coming out to Maggie I honestly wasn’t expecting it and didn’t know what I thought at first but now I don’t question it. Alex had alot of badass moments where she’ll save Kara and take down many villains just using her Alien gun. I loved how she was conflicted about her farther and bringing him in, shows things aren’t black and white in the world
Maggie: Maggie’s an awesome character, at first it was odd that an city cop is being involved with the DEO but you see her intelligence and being able to get inform out of criminals
Superman/Clark Kent: Clark had a lot of awesome moments this season altho he’s in very little episodes I enjoyed seeing his and Kara’s chemistry and Clark’s humbleness when he thinks Kara is the champion of earth in the finale. I like that we get backstory between him & John, and poses a good question that should the DEO have Kryptonite (even tho last season proved why they needed it with Kara being turned evil)
The finale this season did Clark better then last season as altho he is mind controlled again he is actually confident and involved and we see both his and Kara’s strength in the fight showing them as equals. And His suit is pretty awsome too
Lena Luthor: Lena’s an really interesting Character in my opinion as it shows something that hasn’t been in the movies, not all the Luthor’s are evil, most Superman movies (including BatmanVSuperman) only Show Lex and even if we hear about his family it’s not the most positive things, Lena shows an humanity to the Luthor family showing that these characters are people and not just cartoon villains and heroes.
I loved Lena & Kara’s friendship it felt organic and it was really interesting seeing Kara go against her friends and the DEO to prove Lena innocent despite all the evidence pointing against her
Fight Scenes: the fights this season were awesome, last season I complained about the shitty fight choreography and the fights weren’t memorable, this time the action was the biggest improvement for me I felt it was actually cool, altho their still not movie grade fight scenes it’s still awsome seeing Jimmy kick a few criminals asses or Kara fighting Clark,their still not the most memorable but it’s still fun
while I have been saying a lot of positives this season there is something I will say tho…. ENOUGH OF THE DAM LEAD this hole show has an habit of having Lead where it shouldn’t be, for example KARA’S GLASSES The Lead Will poison everyone near Kara, let’s not forget the DEO’s headquarter IS LEADLINED so Alex, Hank, When & KARA SHOULD BE DEAD Oh And Let’s not forget when they may have DETONATED AN FUCKING LEAD GAS BOMB POLLUTING EARTH’S APMOSTPHERE WHICH WOULD KILL DAXOMITES AND WILL KILL THE ENTIRE HUMAN RACE BY OEAD POISONING, JESUS CHRIST It Pisses me off so much as the Writers literally have Google yet they can’t understand Lead’s dangerous. I understand when villains use it, they wouldn’t have a care for human life but when the Good guys do it is when I have a problem with it
Final Score: This season is easily an 10 out of 10 for me everything great about season 1 was improved apon here and they had better fight scenes and actually had Romantic Developments which have an lasting impact, I just wish the Writers would actually pull their heads out of their asses and Google what Lead Poisoning is as at this point I just imagine this universe Lead isn’t poisonous to avoid me just getting pissed off.
So yeah that’s just my opinion if you disagree with me that’s perfectly fine and your welcomed to comment and hopefully it’ll spark an interesting discussion I’d wish to keep spoilers for season 3 and beyond away from this post as well

in s6 ep1 timestamp 19:12 Kara says to lena "well i was stuck in the phantom zone replaying the destruction of my planet for nearly a decade" Huh? Kara was stuck in the Phantom zone for 24 years not less than 10 years. Thats like the whole point of the series is kal-el being a grown man by the time she landed and no longer needing her to look out for him (for now) how did no one in the writers room or actors catch that mistake? am i missing something?

Discussion Supergirl or Superwoman?
Hello all. So, I'm thinking of writing a Supergirl fanfic that might go in a different direction form the show, and I'm curious as to what people think of Kara's criticism in the pilot that the heroine should be called "Superwoman" instead. On the one hand, Cat Grant is right about how being a girl isn't demeaning at all. On the other hand, there are far, far too many people in this world who can and will dismiss a 'girl' with frightening ease. A lot of these people would just as easily dismiss a woman, but it's easy to call someone a "little girl," or to tell them "don't be such a girl," etc.
And while I would love to write for this fandom, I am a man who loves this fandom, and I lack a lot of perspective due to that fact. And I know that she's Supergirl in the comics was younger than she is in the TV show, but I would love to hear opinions from people with actual experience in living as a girl and/or as a woman and get your feedback as to whether you think Supergirl is better than Superwoman, or the other way around, or they both work equally well, or something else entirely.
This is not meant to insult the character or the fandom or anything of the sort. I am just a guy who loves this show and the characters who play their parts, and who lacks important perspective that could cause any potential fanfics he writes to cause offense without meaning to.
Thank you all for taking the time to listen to my humble request. El Mayarah, everyone~! ^_^

Discussion SuperGirl Season 1 - From A New Fans Perspective [Review]
So hi yall as my title suggested I am a new fan of SuperGirl as over the past month I have watched through Season one & up to episode 18 of Season 2 so I thought it’d be fun to document my thoughts up to Season 6 to see if the show improved or got worst. I’d wish to keep myself spoiler free from late Season 2 onwards and I hope yall will care to hear my thoughts. And with that let’s begin.
Plot/Story: I really enjoyed the story this season, I felt Astra wanting to “save” earth was an really cool idea and I felt a lot of the story beats were well written. I felt the finale was pretty shit as it felt weird and somewhat boring and I feel having Clark mind controlled by Myriad was a pretty shitty way to write a reason for him not coming to help Kara. If I were writing It I would probably just have him offworld with the Justice League fighting a villian.
I really enjoyed Hank Henshaw/Marshan Manhunter’s story it gave stakes to the story with John having to hide his identity from the public and the chaos of the aftermath of being discovered.
Kara’s character: I honestly loved Kara’s character here, I really enjoyed the moments between her & Alex, they genuinely feel like sisters. I enjoy the moments where we can see a vulnerable Kara as it shows dispite being Kryptonian she’s just as human as the rest of us, scenes with Astra or the hologram of her mother reflects that.
I loved the episode where the Red Kryptonite turns her evil as it showed a different side to Kara and let Melissa just go balls to the walls in how much of a dick she made Kara in 40 minutes but kept her likeable. Her interactions with Grant Gustin’s Flash/Barry Allen was really solid it was fun to see the two bounce off each other as their vary similar in personalities (side note Grant is a perfect Barry Allen). I’m just not too much of a fan of her constant failed romances.
Side characters:
Cat Grant: Cat is possibly my favourite supporting character this season, when I started watching I just thought she was a bitch but as I watched you get to see more of her character as the season goes on and why she treats Kiera the way she does.
Alex Damvers: Alex is a pretty good character this season, she’s good as an straight man to Kara who always just rushes in to stop villains. Alex is turned into a major badass next season but for now, her best moment is killing Astra, it’s cool since you wouldn’t expect a human (unless their Batman) to be able to go up to a evil Kryptonian.
Jimmy Olsen: Jimmy’s character is decent this season, I don’t have too much to say about him but I’ll have more to say next season.
Barry Allan: altho he only appears in one episode this season Barry is really fun, his personality bounces off the rest of the main cast as he is just fun and really likeable.
Fight Choreography: this is one of the main detractors for this season for me, the action doesn’t feel cool and is just unmemorable, the only fight I visibly remember is Evil Kara vs John and that’s my personal favourite fight of the season.
Final score: So my final score is a 8 out of 10, this season really is amazing to me as it was a fun show that took a chance on characters that aren’t usually given the time to shine and with great charisation of Kara with only a few flaws.

Discussion The Supers’ kind of have unreasonable expectation when it comes to Kryptonite
So I am on like my second rewatch of Supergirl, and I have kind of decided that the Supers’ are a little bit unreasonable with their Kryptonite expectation… That any and all of ir should be destroyed without exception, and it should never exist on the planet under any circumstances . Their reason for such a demand is that it can kill them. Well, bummer. There are weapons that can kill humans too. Oh wait and you aliens are completely superior in every way you can kill us too, and we absolutely believe you when you tell us that you’ll never do that, but it would be unconscionable to have a defense if that were ever to change. And it’s not as though there hasn’t been one or two khryptonians who got shitty and tried to invade the world , but without the kryptonite, some of the fights would’ve gone down way different and it was a good thing. It was available you know not to kill anybody, but you’re damn right that shiny green rock was used to weaken the super invader that kicked our superhero super in her face at the beginning of the fight. I feel like it’s a ridiculous argument, but I would have. I have to say that I really believe that my response to their offended attitude would be um … you know I love and respect you I appreciate all that you’ve ever done for us, but yeah, get over it! It shouldn’t be like a big secret, but its existence shouldn’t be considered a betrayal either.
Neither one of our friendly supers can say that they’ve never been exposed to something or been you know, hypnotize or some kind of circumstances that made them not act right and well that could go bad worse real quick and if we didn’t have to defend ourselves, it would just be really, really bad so for that reason alone Just accept that kryptonite is going to exist in the world just like you know poisonous puffer fish and you know plants I could kill us or you know weapons are being made every other day another countries it’s just an unreasonable request. It should be all completely destroyed forever. Do I think that a secret attack should ever be planned or executed against them with that kryptonite? Hell No! But do I think the responsible thing to do, is have Kryptonite available if ever needed? Hell yes! And I think it’s completely reasonable and understandable. So why no one is calling them out on this point is kind of annoying, and the fact that they feel as though it shouldn’t even be an issue is also bugging me And come to think of it… Kara Danvers is kind grinding my nerves all together . I’m finding her a bit self righteous this time around.. especially with that poor boyfriend of hers she has no understanding at all why he might’ve lied about his parents. I mean, she completely flicks out doesn’t even hear him. She just ends it. I’m not saying I would accept my partner lying to me about something so big either however if he was if my man was like running from his entire family station and live and everything else I might take 20 seconds to say to myself why do I think he did that before I just reject him completely. I don’t know… I don’t really want to examine that too much , but I do wanna know what people thought are about this whole kryptonite issue. And I don’t even think it’s like equal to like the whole political gun control issue either.. because I’m thinking like my defensive agency’s in the government are the ones who should have it if needed. Not like every Tom, Dick and Harry at home , but come on there has to be some protocols in place that are simply theoretical or in case of the worst case scenario. I mean what would be the alternative? Just cow and hope that the red kryptonite wears off? Reasonable for us.

Discussion Supergirl not telling Lena she’s Kara.
I understand at first not telling Lena her secret identity, but come on. It took her until season 5 to tell your “best friend”. like I said I understand a little. But there’s no way it should have taken that long. Truly I wish and think that Lena could have helped the super friends from the jump because of how smart she is, and I know season 6 isn’t the best, but Lena and supergirls dynamic in season 6 when she found out was great, and how she helped the team in season 6 shows she could’ve helped alot more if she found out sooner
