fmaz Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) I predict that this show will pick up viewership numbers in season 2. Those of us watching from the start have been rewarded with a great show...but I can't imagine any of us expected such a deep connection to the DC universe as they've built week after week. I know feeling it wouldn't punch up to the levels of Arrow or Flash kept a lot of people away, but I think a lot of comic fans will watch season one over the summer and realize what they've missed! That Flash crossover episode will be a great intro to the show for a lot of folks who've yet to give it a chance. Those are some of the people who will decide to check it out in reruns or on Blu Ray.

snowman28 Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) Watched last night's episode but didn't catch any Lobo reference. If I missed something could somebody fill me in? Regardless, still very excited to see these characters coming up AND Or is it ... Edited February 23, 2016 by snowman28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnhDepTrai Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 When the sister discuss the identity of the Masked villain with J'on, she asked if this is a bounty hunter or an intergalactic bounty hunter and ask if "he is in town", J'on answered with "if he is in town, I would know", something like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artboy99 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Is that the Brainiac symbol on her head?!!?!? Holy mackerel! I think it is. Very cool if so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krighton Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I watched the pilot and so turned off by Ally Mcbeal and male model Jimmy I couldn't watch any more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zosocane Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I watched the pilot and so turned off by Ally Mcbeal and male model Jimmy I couldn't watch any more That's too bad because you've missed some incredible superhero television, arguably the best of all hero TV shows right now. This show keeps getting better and better. I think Calista Flockhart is outstanding (reminds me of JJJ). I agree Jimmy Olsen was horribly miscast, but I tune him out.

Rodey Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I'm not a huge fan as everyone else is. I enjoy it. Feels too dopey for me at times. And Flockhart gets really hammy at times. The SFX are cool. And the fight scenes are fun. I just get annoyed with some of the acting. Man, I can watch Jenna Dewan Tatum all. day. long.

I find Melissa Benoist to be very attractive as well, particularily as Supergirl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the blob Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 When the sister discuss the identity of the Masked villain with J'on, she asked if this is a bounty hunter or an intergalactic bounty hunter and ask if "he is in town", J'on answered with "if he is in town, I would know", something like that --- yup. of course, there could be 127 other candidates in the d.c. universe. i'm concerned that they don't have the CGI budget to do a proper lobo. painting some regular size guy blue ain't gonnah cut it. they need a huge dude who can sort of act or cgi to make someone look huge. of course, the dothraki dude from GOT would look right, maybe after 6 months of intense HGH/juicing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the blob Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I watched the pilot and so turned off by Ally Mcbeal and male model Jimmy I couldn't watch any more ally mcbeal keeps SG grounded in earth's issues. she probably dominates the show too much, but she serves a purpose. i don't have a problem with hunky jimmy olsen, it's just that he is too much of a darn moralizer and what not. also, i think it's b.s. that he has the keys to the fortress of solitude. also, if SG is about to have to go to war against a small army of krytonians with only a martian manhunter at her side, shouldn't she be giving clark a call?

I think calling it the "best" is a bit of an overreach but let's just say it's far exceeded expectations. The pilot was only ok, as you know, and it's just come so far since then it's really gotten exciting, especially with possibilities. I'd highly recommend at least tuning in for the Flash - Supergirl crossover episode. That will give you a glimpse at how far it's come. Knowing how much they've committed to pure DC mythology lately... I'd be SHOCKED if that episode doesn't end with, or at least allude to, a little race to between the two heroes to see who is the fastest....

Yep. When Non tells Kara at the end of the last rites for her aunt that after the period of mourning ends, she will be the next to go in a coffin, I told my son that if I were Supergirl, I would have called Clark Kent right then and there.

Creepy! I do think it is now time to bring out the big guns. Even with all the Kryptonite weapons within the DEO's control, they still couldn't stand against all that firepower.

He's waiting on that call. I love it. It's all building up to a big season finale, I have no doubt. Supergirl, Martian Manhunter, Red Tornado, maybe a turned-Bizarro Supergirl, and maybe Superman (I'm sure we won't see Him, but He'll lend a hand) teaming up to take on the Fort Roz Kryptonians in a mano-a-mano showdown. I also love it how Kara's happy-go-lucky persona is eroding and she's developing a scowl on her face. Kudos to Melissa Benoist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
