Re: Supergirl TV Series
Supergirl rumored to crossover with The Flash...
That's a big maybe, though. Depends entirely on if CBS orders the back 9 episodes, and they may not, as rating for Supergirl, while strong, have been steadily dropping. Even Agents of SHIELD's ratings didn't drop to Supergirl's current levels until after almost an entire season. Supergirl is only a handful of episodes in.
Livewire episode was alright. The show might be finding it's footing, but there is still massive room for improvement because I couldn't even finish the drone episode.
I want this show to be good, but it's just missing on every level.
For one, Melissa Benoist isn't interesting, compelling, or riveting in any sense. Part of that may be how Kara is being written, but the character is so one dimensional right now. I get that it's only a handful of episodes in, but how do they expect to retain an audience when their lead is that uninteresting?
Second, they continually keep driving home that this is Supergirl/Kara's story and not Superman's/Clark's, yet his presence is felt probably TOO much in the show. The Pilot appearance made sense, but they're overdoing it, with his occasional emails or Jimmy constantly being there. If it's not Superman's story, stop presenting this show as relying so heavily on him.
I don't know, this show just isn't doing it for me, currently. Hoping it gets better.
