  1. I don't think the show is portraying it that way but that's how it's been taken by some.
  2. I liked Steve very much this season but I hate the idea that Nancy's value depends at all in wether she picks him or Jonathan. Both are good guys this season and she is a pretty good person too.
  3. I enjoyed this season. I hope Noah gets recognition for his acting like Millie did last season because he shone brightly in all his scenes. I loved Joyce being a strong momma and doing everything to help her son. Bob was such a great guy, he will be missed. At first it was like "really Joyce?" but as the episodes went on and I totally got it and thought he was a keeper. I'd gladly end up with a Bob. I liked Hopper and Eleven but the scene where he kept yelling at her made me so uncomfortable due to my own bad experiences at home. I'm glad he apologized at the end and that he will have Joyce to confide now so he can keep his temperament in check. I liked Max but I hated when she kept being treated badly by everyone, even the kids, especially Mike. Her brother was such a disgusting creep. I like that she defended herself from him but I can't see his abuse ending there. I think Jonathan and Nancy do have chemistry so they make and okay couple but I hated how apart they were from the rest of the storylines. I do like the little touches that remind us that Nancy kicks ass though, like her grabbing the shotgun and later on when she helped burning the monster out of Will. I could deal without so much of the romantic plots. It feels like everyone on this show has to be paired up. I just can't get into Mike/Eleven and Dustin was annoying when he treated Max badly because she liked Lucas better. His last scene with Nancy was very cute though, I'm glad she was there for him. Steve was at his best with Dustin and the kids. He was a much better character this season. I felt so bad for Dustin's mom when her cat died. A pet is family. I tried not to get attached because I knew the cat was a gonner as soon as I saw that trash bin shaking but it was still horrifying to see his poor bloody and mangled body. Though I oddly feel bad for Dart dying as well. I was pleasently surprised Paul Raiser's character ended up being a good guy who believed in Will (though he shouldn't have) and helped everyone to get out of the labs. I could have done without Eleven's standalone episode but I didn't hate it, the placement was just unfortunate.
  4. I forgot this show was back last week but I caught this episode and I actually enjoyed it. I could do without Mon El ending up being Kara's issue but I liked what they showed with Kara's pod fkying out of Krypton and the destruction she saw. Probably thinking about her family, friends and all the people she knew dying horribly. Poor Kara. I loved the praying in Kryptonian. Since Erica Durance (!!!) appears to be Kara's mom now I hope they explore more of life on Krypton. Seeing Kara and Alex together again was also fantastic. I missed them so much. That quality for a scene between them was missing for a long time. So Lena bought Catco and is probably now taking over in the same style she probably did with L Corp and she and James will butt heads. Hey, James has a storyline! Go James. But I like Lena so I hope this all ends well. It's just weird that she doesn't have an office and is hovering around the building all day but I liked the scene when she wouldn't let Kara put on an attitude on her and when she told Eve that she could use the elevator. I loved seeing Kara and Winn together having scenes again, that was so nice. And Winn and Alex's scenes are also fantastic. And Kara and Maggie! Kara had scenes with so many characters! That was the best. Alex and Maggie were cute but there's gonna be trouble in paradise. Wanting children vs not wanting them is more complex than band vs dj. Reign was fine as a character but her daughter was so annoying. I could do without the kid. All in all I really liked most of the episode.
  5. I wonder if they will have any new footage ready. Last year Supergirl had the worst video presentation of all the panels I watched and it was all season 1 footage.
  6. I think GHSCORPIOSRULE meant a Dean Cain and Teri Hatcher reunion.
  7. I loved parts of this but disliked others. I expected so much more from the Superman and Supergirl fight. I should have known not to. Supergirl just won too easily at the end. I don't mind that Kara is stronger but I do think it's more fun when they are a little more eavenly matched and it takes a bit more to beat what should be the biggest threat she has faced. Then the match with Rhea was just boring. I hated that they were building up the Mon El leaving storyline at that point and Kara kept looking at him for long moments after getting punched and Rhea did not take advantage and used her kryptonite fingers to finish her. Whatever. Melissa sold the goodbye scene and Kara's heartbreak but I couldn't care less about Mon El leaving. I wish he could stay gone. The end song was so cringy, it reminded me of Buffy's season 2 finale for some reason with Sarah Mclachlan breaking my heart instead and then the whole thing was just worse. Sorry Idina Menzel (if that was you) but that was too forced. I did love Cat Grant of course and her interactions with Kara. I really missed them. I loved Kara's quip about wanting to Rhea to kill her, lol. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Winn so much! It's funny because I don't remember loving him this much in season one but now I'm at the point where I wouldn't mind if they had made him Kara's love interest instead of James or Mon El (this version of him, not season one's). I also really enjoyed the Luthors, their first scene when they talk about Lena falling for Rhea's trap and Lena talking about how Lillian taught her to doubt herself and look for validation was just excellent. I wonder what role Lillian will play next season because I can see Lena (and many people on Earth) starting to find her point of view the most reasonable after this invasion. I also enjoyed the parallel to Medusa, in which Lena stops the chemical weapon made by Kara's father that would kill all aliens on National City and now Lena makes a chemical weapon that would kill all Daxamites. Kara despised her father's creation but she was the one to detonate Lena's. I really would have loved it if this show would have spent time revisiting Kara's own conflicting feelings on her father's actions and for her to admit to seeing things his way because I thought her point of view in Medusa was too unfair to him. The Alex and Maggie scene was cute, although it came out of nowhere. J'onn and M'gann feel so wrong since I can't help seeing them as uncle and niece even though I know there's no relation here. I feel sorry for James. It seems he was the only one to not get any romance (nor screentime) this season. I almost want to buy a shirt that says "Free Mehcad!". The boots promo for Wonder Woman was so cute. Melissa Benoist is adorable and I loved Lynda Carter's wink and Teri and Chyler's faces. BUT, it did made me realize that Wonder Woman's boots are fugly and look uncomfortable for battle lol. They somehow had looked cool in her earlier trailers. And finally: Do Teri Hatcher and Deab Cain hate each other? Why would the show deny Lois and Clark fans a scene between them?
  8. Cat Grant was so much fun. I missed her and I had no idea how much until this episode. Of course I loved all Cat and Supergirl moments and the moments with Winn were so cute. Those first scenes with Alex and Maggie fighting the Daxamites looked pretty cool and I loved the imagery of people rebelling against the Daxamites but that part didn't feel earned in this episode. The arranged marriage plot was so stupid. The worst part of the episode. I felt like Katie McGrath looked annoyed in those scenes and Chris Wood was just flat all episode long, especially in his last scene with Kara. I did like Lillian going in to save Lena though, it's interesting that she does seem to care for her daughter after all. Teri Hatcher is a fun villain and she is definitely having fun in the role so I don't mind that Rhea has no depth at all. I expected more from Superman than being so easily mind controlled. Again. I liked the president. There's something odd about Lynda Carter's delivery but somehow it works for her character. I enjoyed seeing her push Alex to do her job and Alex's conflicting feelings over Kara. Chyler Leigh is such a good actress. Cat and Lena have to know Kara is Supergirl. Right? It makes no sense if they don't. It also makes no sense for Kara to try to reason with Rhea. Honey, there's no reason to try if even her son is not interested.
  9. I forgot the show was coming back! And it was Rahul's episode! Nooo. Well, I liked Jack and Jack and Lena's flirtation. They actually felt like two adults instead of bickering teenagers, like I though the show liked their romances, and I appreciatted that so much (I'll be fair, Alex and Maggie are not that bad). The Jack character was likeable due to Rahul but if it were any other actor I would have felt cold about him dying in the same episode we met him. Especially after he was set up to appear to be the villain for most of it. Still, that is one good looking man. I was actually very endeared by Lena when she didn't get upset at Kara for crashing her date. That was nice. I liked their last scene in the couch, so touching and I love Kara as a protector. I really don't want her to go to the dark side but I'm excited for her story if it goes there, I'm not sure what I want. My favorite part of the episode was seeing Kara get back into reporting and following the investigation and being protective and a hero. Her last scene with Snapper was very nice. I also thought Melissa Benoist looked especially gorgeous this episode, I loved the blue and white shirt and white skirt she was wearing, oh, and that blue dress and coat Karie McGrath was wearing was also fantastic, they should let her keep her hair down more often. I wish they would have added a scene with Kara and Alex processing Kara witnessing the whistleblower's death and not being able to help him, I get that other things needed to be furthered but I could have done with a little less Lyra-Winn. I feel so bad for James for the way the show has treated him this season that it hurts to complain about his story but I just didn't care for it and thought he was in the right and Winn was in the wrong. Mon El was ok, it's kind of sad because I can't get over my dislike of him to fully enjoy him when he is being fun. I don't get why he couldn't have been a fully nice guy all the time instead of making him a douche who rehabilitates for Kara.
  10. Maybe she can kick Kara's butt for not fighting for the job she claimed to want so badly.

    My issue with Mon El is not just that they spend so much time fighting, it's just that their fighting is always about him disrespecting or undermining her and she correctly calls him out on it but then forgives him every time. Now finally she decided not to and here she is convinced to go back to him by some musical entity who decided the guy is right for her and she had lost her way when she didn't forgive him a couple of HOURS earlier. It wasn't he who had to learn about trusting her and the importance of honesty and being responsible for his actions and sorry doesn't always resolve things, it was SHE who had to be taught a lesson in forgiveness when it's been all she's been doing with him again and again.

    I haven't watched many The Flash episodes but I actually liked everything I saw about the characters, I might catch up on the show on Netflix. I enjoyed the interaction the Flash team had with Martial Manhunter. I thought the musical numbers were fine, I liked all the voices but I felt like they didn't take advantage of what Melissa can do, I've seen her be impressive in live numbers. It seems the same happened to Grant here judging by other comments. I wish more women had sang and been part of the musical side besides Kara, I'm sad Alex did not crossover but I would have liked seeing the Flash ladies singing and dancing too, I enjoyed the Barry/Iris part even though the whole reasoning for the musical was stupid. That proposal with a serenade was adorable. Mon El did not deserve to be forgiven by Kara however, he is constantly forgiven by her after she calls him out for his crap almost every episode since they got together and now that she decided not to (FINALLY!), a magical being comes and makes her change her mind.
  13. I think the Alex heavy episode is 2x19 because 2x16 and 2x17 are about the Daxam plot and 2x18 was the one with Jack Spheere, so the big Alex episode had to be 2x15. I do think they could have added Chyler to the musical if they wanted, they just chose not to.
