  1. Ella, Lucifer's and Chloe entering the studio. There is a giant rooster. Luci: "That's the biggest cock I've ever seen." Which is appropriate given than we are going to hear jokes about micropenis later.

    Lucifer making funny voices with a puppet.

    Oh, the weirdness and humour in this show!

  2. I have just been re-watching this today and noticed that Candy also said that she never lies, she just bluffs. I went to the "Candy Morningstar" episode and checked all her dialogues. And I think that if she's planning to open a juice bar and a tanning salon, she's right, she didn't lie to any of the characters. She told Charlotte that she had Lucifer's back. And that she did. Lovely.

    I liked Lucifer's soft voice during his conversation with Candy at the end of this episode. She is someone he can trust and he cares about a lot. I like her.

    I liked that Luci was not bothered that his friends trashed his home partying and that he would have wanted to be there for the fun.

    And that last scene with Chloe was touching and very true to the characters. I also liked that Lucifer kept the painting that he got saving Chloe's life. Hanging in his room.

    LOL at Chloe doing a Risky Business dance (remember that Rebecca de Mornay, the actress playing Mama Decker, was there?).

    My take on William Shakespeare is that Luci made him bisexual and was his muse.

  3. I have re-watching this show and I have noticed something. In the scene that Lucifer looks into Chloe's phone too tease her about her musical tastes he finds it is "full of 90s jams, The Bangles N'Sync". And what does he do to prove what he's willing to do for their partnership? "rock a sweet 90s jam"... Eternal Flame from The Bangles. He pays attention. 

    I love this show. Binge-watched it all recently and hoping season 4 is as good as 1-2!

  4. I also think that the real reason for them dropping Kara/ James is the one that Kreisberg gave: that they did not have chemistry and the audience didn't react well to this.

    I have also heard that TPTB mentioned mentioned months ago that Mechad didn't bring his family from LA to Vancouver and he wasn't sure of being able to commit a lot of time to the show, so they didn't want to invest in a romantic relationship that maybe they would have to drop (because with the change of filming location he could leave). I don't have a source for this so I don't really know if this is true.

    Maybe I am missing something but I just don't get how some people can take a ship so far as to harass anyone they see as a "threat." Especially actors who, in most cases, have little to no control over what is written and are just doing their job.

    Agreed. Everyone can be unhappy or disagree with whatever storylines they get in a show. Sending hate or 'joking' about murdering an actor is not okay. Criticism can be done in a respectful manner.

    I hated Arrow season 5. I used to love Olicity but I think that they ruined it for me. I expressed my opinions online but didn't send hate to anyone. I stopped watching in January. So yes, I understand what is like feeling that someone is transforming your favourite show and ship into something you hate.

    I had never felt the need to block people in social media but my block list is hundreds of people now because I am a Karamel shipper so I have been a hate target too.

    I think he knew immediately what the reaction from this was going to be!

    Oh, I agree with you.

    I have watched most of the interviews during that day, and I think that Chris was nervous at the beginning of the day and got a bit more relaxed as the interviews went on. The cast (specially Melissa and David) seemed to be quite protective towards him. I think that he was hyper-aware of the possibility of any of his actions being interpreted as proof of what a horrible person he is as it usually happens with everything he does or says. And that he was nervous about the possibility of getting hate during the day.

    There is a reason why Chris has almost disappeared from social media in the last eight months. And he is not the only one in the cast (Jeremy said that he would take a break of social media months ago - he tweeted something about all relationships being beautiful just before 2x13 and he received a lot of hate because people interpreted that he was supporting karamel).

    All of the cast probably knew about the plans widely shared in social media by many of the most vocal Supercorp supporters (and others) to boycott and boo Chris' presence at SDCC. Just before the finale there was a finale public screening -Katie was there so there were a lot of Supercorp supporters- and many people booed every time that his character appeared so him being booed at SDCC was a real possibility. One of the things that was planned was that during the panel or interviews he would get questions that would make him feel very uncomfortable. Some interviewers asked Supergirl fans to send them questions for SDCC and they received suggestions that were quite extreme and offensive in my opinion. The explicit goal for many of the people who send hate is to make him leave the show or TPTB decide to eliminate the character and/ or his fictional romantic relationship with Kara because they hate Mon-El / Karamel and many of them say that they hate Chris too (extremely offensive things about him and Melissa -his girlfriend- have been shared in social media). Many of them have said that only thing that will satisfy them is making Supercorp canon. And I think that the cast knew about this because SDCC was alerted about these plans.

    So maybe what happened during that interview had something to do with an increased anxiety within the cast, specially if they talk to each other about the hate. In addition to that, SDCC is not easy. The cast mentioned in another interview that they got a long list of things that they couldn't speak about as TPTB do not want them to spoil certain storylines, and there were just a few things that they could and should talk about. They also have to be funny and entertaining during a long day full of interviews.

    BTW, I have seen people in social media saying that they were unhappy that Supercorp was singled out for no reason at all (nobody has talked about other non-canon ships such as SuperCat or KarOlsen or MonWinn). Well, I think that one of the reasons could be all the hate that many members of the cast and producers (specially Chris, Melissa, Rahul and Andrew Kreisberg but not only them) have received from many of the most vocal Supercorp supporters. They are not the only ones but many of the people sending hate identify themselves as such (you don't need to accept my word on that - it is quite easy finding hate messages in social media). And again, I am well aware that the majority of Supercorp shippers do not send hate. It is a shame that many of the most vocal ones do. So yes, I don't think that everyone in the cast have happy thoughts about Supercorp. I know that I used to like it but I don't enjoy interactions between Kara and Lena as I used to do because I am thinking about the hate messages that will follow.

    It's so sad that this situation is hurting so many people. Including normal shippers who do not send hate. Including LGTB+ people. Including the cast.

    Technically, they wouldn't have to break them up. When Masi Oka left Hawaii Five-0 last year, they mentioned his wife and showed her in flashbacks but she wasn't actually in the episode. 

    They also keep John Diggle in a married relationship in Arrow and I think that the actress playing his wife does not appear in most of the episodes of the show.

  8. The elephant in the room that has not been mentioned yet is that a significant number of Supercorp supporters (but not only them) have been constantly sending lots of very insulting social media messages (e.g. tweets) to actors (such as Jeremy, Chris, Melissa, Rahul), producers (including Andrew Kreisberg), other people involved with the show (like Sterling Gates, who was one the writers of episode 2x13 or Leanne Aguilera who has interviewed the cast or Kevin Smith who directed two episodes), and fans of the ship between Kara and Mon-El (Karamel) for months. These messages are not difficult to find in social media. In the week before SDCC Kevin Smith and Leanne Aguilera spoke about the insulting messages that they have got because of this on their Twitter accounts. Rahul spoke about the hateful messages that he received right after he was announced as playing Lena's ex in a recent interview. It has been and still is quite bad. 

    For the record, I am aware that a majority of Supercorp supporters and people who don't like Mon-El or his fictional relationship with Kara have not sent hate or insults to anyone. I am also aware of the reasons that people have for not liking the ship or the character. I do think that every storyline or character or ship in any show or movie or story can be criticised. But I also believe that any criticism can be done in a respectful manner. I have no problem with people having different opinions and expressing them publicly and trying to convince showrunners to change their storylines if they are not happy with them as far as they do not send insulting messages to real people. Some of the hate that has been sent has been extremely bad. I also think that people involved in the show and fans should be able to express positive opinions if they want to, that all ships, canon or fanon, are valid, and that everyone should be able to enjoy any show in the way that makes them happy.

    I have also seen plans shared in social media by a big number of people (many of them Supercorp supporters) to boycott Chris' presence in SDCC and make him feel as uncomfortable as possible because he has spoken about the perspective of the character he plays, his character development to heroism and his relationship with Kara (btw Chris he got the loudest cheer during the Supergirl panel). I have seen messages shared by Supercorp supporters 'joking' about murdering Chris during SDCC so Mon-El wouldn't return back.

    I wouldn't be surprised if the cast actions and reactions during that song, who were childish, had something to do with months of all this hate being sent to them. It is not nice receiving hateful messages so I don't think that everyone in the cast have happy thoughts about the Supercorp fandom and maybe they had too much fun with this particular joke. 

    I do think that the cast members who participated in that song shouldn't have done it, because the way they said that Kara and Lena were only friends and a romantic relationship between them will not happen in the show could have be interpreted as mocking because of the song and their reactions. I also think that this has been blown out of proportion because some of the Supercorp supporters were already unhappy about characters and storylines and statements from actors/ producers about the story that they want to tell. Maybe it wouldn't have been interpreted as mocking Supercorp and LGTB+ fans if the most vocal Supercorp supporters weren't already hating vehemently the direction that the show seems to be taking (Mon-El returning + Lena and Kara as friends and not a romantic couple).

    I also think that some of the opinions and summaries that have been posted online about this situation as a response to people asking what had happened during that interview are not true or biased. For example, Chris was the one cast member in that room who didn't laugh or react during that moment (when Jeremy said that they were just friends) but a lot of people is saying that Chris was mocking fans and Katie was not. Full disclaimer, as a Karamel shipper and Chris Wood fan I am probably biased too. So the best way to get an opinion is watch the video.

    I have read many social media messages from LGTB+ people on this issue trying to really understand their perspective. Many said that they think that this wouldn't have happened if this wasn't a wlw ship so there is homophobia involved. Many said that this has been really bad for them because shipping LGTB+ ships can be important for people struggling with their identity to help them accept themselves and feel that they deserve happiness and love. Many said that shipping is sometimes the way some LGTB+ people use to cope in difficult times, and they are crushed because Supercorp was their safe happy place and now it does not feel safe and happy anymore. Many said that they are feeling terribly bad because they have interpreted this as a non LGTB+ person telling them that the way they are and their feelings are not important or valid. Many said that because there is discrimination against LGTB+ everyone should be specially sensitive and not saying things that could be affecting negatively LGTB+ people. Many said that this situation has been a trigger to them reminding them of bad experiences. Many said that non LGTB+ shouldn't be the ones to decide what is discrimination and how to feel about the idea of two women loving each other. I am listening to all these opinions and think that they have good points.

    So this situation has been a mess and it would have been better if that joke during the song hadn't happened. And I think that apologies were necessary because feelings were hurt.

    In their defense, the cast spent all day joking about everything in all their interviews. That same day they also joked about Karamel and made fun of each other. I don't think that what happened at that interview was planned, it was just an improv song and it happened.

    I also think that Jeremy is a good guy and he feels truly sorry. He has listened to the feedback that he has received and I don't think that he would do something similar in the future. I think that it is difficult to understand what is being part of a minority when you are not part of it and he has probably learned from this incident.

    This was probably posted somewhere on the Arrow forum earlier but I only just noticed that GG was nominated as Best Villian as well.  I love that since they don't mention for which character, I can just pretend it's an indictment against all the dumb stuff Barry has pulled.  

    Also good for Josh and Teri.  

    Supergirl got two more nominations, for Best TV Ship and Best Liplock (both with Melissa and Chris - Kara and Mon-El = Karamel). Best Liplock is both for movies and TV.

     

    Four nominations in total for Arrow (Best TV Action Show, Best TV Action Actor-Stephen, Best TV Action Actress-Emily, Best TV Villain-Josh)

    Four nominations in total for Flash (Best TV Action Show, Best TV Action Actor-Grant, Best TV Action Actress-Danielle, Best TV Villain-Grant)

    One nomination in total for Legends of Tomorrow (Best TV Action Actress-Caity).

    Six nominations in total for Supergirl (Best TV Action Show, Best TV Action Actress-Melissa, Best TV Action Actor-Chris, Best TV Villain-Teri, Best TV Ship-Karamel/ Melissa & Chris, Best Liplock-Melissa & Chris)

     

    The voting period for the second wave of nominations ended a couple of days ago.

    From those who hate who?

    James is the only original cast member I could see them killing off. Or maybe Cat Grant, but filming the flashbacks would require too much of her time. I suppose Winn is a possibility, but unlikely.

    The ones who hate Mon-El. And though that he would not return to season 3. I was always sure of his return but it feels good to have confirmation because I enjoy this character and his story a lot.

    I'm guessing that means he did end up in the future?  

    Although I'm not an "astute comic book fan", so maybe not. :)

    Well, in comics Mon-El ends up on the 30th century and gets a Flight Ring and a permanent cure from his lead allergy from the Legion of Superheroes (who travelled to the present in Smallville for what can be a similar storyline). The Legion can travel through space and time so I expect that they rescued him because he is needed.

    A surprising amount of commentors think its Supergirl, someone speculated that is the reason for the relative lack of spoilers for the new season. But it does not fit Supergirl's format, tone or style at all. If they did it would be a big WTF, possibly shark jumping moment. Also, this death is supposedly happening in the premiere and hasn't officially been approved yet and Supergirl is already filming its premiere. 

     

    Wistful thinking from the ones who hate him, probably. I agree with you. 

  12. Spoiler about Chris Wood / Mon-El:

    "Where exactly did that vortex take Mon-El (Chris Wood)? Kreisberg assures us Wood's hot hero will be back in Season 3 but is mum on his current locale. 'Where he went his whereabouts and how he returns is one of the central mysteries at the start of the season,' he explains. 'The more astute comic book fans may have a semi good guess as to where he went'.

  13. I'm very excited about the next episodes. There is a few interesting interviews with Andrew Kreisberg about the next episodes here:

    http://www.cbr.com/interview-supergirl-andrew-kreisberg-superman-general-zod/

    I am so excited about all people that is returning in these episodes (Superman, Cat, M'Gann, Eve).

    I want more Rhea and want to see what happens after her interactions with Mon-El and Lena. I want to see the Daxamites attacking Earth and Maggie/ Alex/ Jonn/ M'Gann and everyone else fighting them. I wan't Kara and Mon-El finally fighting together again and more romantic moments between them.

    Also according to paps (check tweets from canadagraphs and pursuit23), Lena, Lillian and Winn have scenes together in the alien throne room and I want to know what it is about.

    I want to know what happens with Mon-El that according to paps will have to make the ultimate sacrifice (something related to pods) but will be in season 3. He is still in DEO clothing in his leaked photos in the finale, so I don't think that we will get his supersuit of hero name this season but paps said that there will be an emotional scene with Kara so I'm expecting her ILY.

    I am so excited about the finale Supergirl/ Superman fight (there are leaked photos all over twitter) and what role plays General Zod in this. According to paps Clark doesn't recognize Kara, so maybe he thinks that he is fighting Zod?

    I want to know who the season 3 villain is (Kreisberg said that we will know in the finale).

    I'm so excited! I am loving this season!

    Finally! Some news I can be happy about! Maybe his Supes can kick Mon's ass.

    My speculation is that Superman will be giving Mon-El the Legion Flight Ring that is in the Fortress of Solitude. In the last episode they filmed the ring (2x17) and then focused on Mon-El. It seemed to be foreshadowing to me, particularly when Mon-El in comics is one of the Legion members who owns a ring.

    Spoiler

    And we know for interviews that there is a supersuit for Mon-El, so the finale seems to be an appropriate moment for him to start his comic-y superhero path (we know for interviews that his development as a hero will continue in season 3).

    I'm fully expectIng Mon-El to go back to Daxam after defeating Evil Momster in 2x22. He'll either be King or their answer to George Washington, but he's going to have to go back and clean up the mess.  Then he will be Kara's lost love, and she will be free to date again next season although she'll mourn quietly for awhile.

    Most of the Daxamites are scattered across the universe anyway, so I want him to abdicate so they can be a Republic. The mess will be cleaned up after defeating Evil Momster.

    I want Mon-El to stay with the team in Earth.

    Spoiler

    Which will happen because Chris said in an interview that his hero arch will continue in season 3 and he has already tried on the supersuit.

    Oh, that's sure to end well.

    Rumors are based in a few semi-cryptical tweets by 2 paparazzis (lemon_buzz and pursuit23) on the 6 April, which indicate that:

    -Sanvers will fight crime and Daxamites together in 2x21.

    - Maggie & Lillian share a scene in 2x21.

    - Rhea and Lena have scenes together and so do Lena and Mon-El (maybe also in 2x21?)

    - To a tweet asking if there will be Lena/ Kara scenes in 2x21 the response is: "The Lena/ Mon-El Scenes create a bit of um.....tension? with Kara".

    - To a tweet asking or Lena & Mon-El gonna have to save Kara or something the response is "No. Very far from it".

    - Lena does not like Mon-El.

    - There is a tweet mentioning "a villainous prearranged marriage that was halted before started".

    - When asked if the marriage was Mon-El & Lena, the reply included diamond ring icons, celebration icons and champagne icons. People is speculating that this response means yes.

    - Cat Grant will be seen again in season 2.

    I'm still super confused by the Daxamite as villains. It this really going into season 3? For how long have they got Terri Hatcher? I thought they had a arc only this season because Kevin Sorbo said only 3 episodes. 

    Well, HE has been in exactly 3 episodes. She, however...

    I have heard rumors of Teri Hatcher being filming with Brenda Strong (Lillian Luthor). No confirmed, no source, sorry.

    If they are true we may get a scene with Teri Hatcher and Dean Caine (papa Danvers, currently under Cadmus' control). As a Lois & Clark fan, I really want this to happen.

    I may have forgotten, but I don't remember scenes establishing much of anything about Mon-El's distaste for Daxamite society prior to the last few episodes. I think there was a line or two where he conceded in his courtship of Kara that maybe Daxam was superficial or the like. But I don't think there was an acknowledgement that Daxam would be by our standards flat-out evil. Maybe in the one where they were slaves for a hot second?

    See direct quotes from his negative comments about Daxam here:

    Episode 2x04: Alura's hologram: "Daxam. Sister world to Krypton. A race of bullies and hedonists, committed only to their own pleasure. They are selfish...". Kara: "Bye, mom! Sorry about that." Mon-El: "No, it was, uh, an apt description."

    Episode 2x06: Mon-El: "Yeah, you never met my parents. They weren't exactly role models." Kara: "But mine saw the end of the world coming, and didn't do anything about it." Mon-El: "Hey, it's not It's not your parents' fault. It's not even Krypton's fault. Okay, we shared a star, that's all."

    Episode 2x09: It was the first mention that Daxam had slavery. Mon-El: "Wait, this is Maaldoria?". Kara: "You know where we are?" Mon-El: "The locals call it Slavers' Moon. The royal family on Daxam used to buy their slaves here." Kara: "I forgot. They had slavery on Daxam". Mon-El: "There were a lot of things there I didn't agree with". 

    Episode 2x09: Mon-El said "There wasn't much to inspire me on Daxam". Kara: "What about the Prince?". Mon-El: "He wasn't worth admiring. But I wanna be". (basically admitting that HE was not worth admiring but wanted to).

    Episode 2x14: Kara: "If your father walked through that door right now, after all these years that you thought he was dead, what would you do?". Mon-El: "I would run." Kara: "Run?" Mon-El: "Because he was not a good man."

    Episode 2x16 is when Kara meets his parents. This conversation is during the meal at the spaceship: Rhea: "And to find you. So that we might return, now that the atmosphere is hospitable. To make Daxam great again." Mon-El: "Daxam was never great."

    Episode 2x16 (break up scene): Mon-El: "I'm the former Prince of Daxam. And I was a spoiled, useless person, but I didn't know. Until I met you." (I believe that this is literal - it never occurred to him that his way of living was wrong until he came to Earth).

    Episode 2x16 (no witnesses, just Mon-El and his parents at the spaceship after Kara broke up with him): Mon-El: "You never cared about our people before." Rhea: "Things will be different this time." Mon-El: "They won't. It'll be more of the same. I think about our lives there and it makes me ill. I detest who I was. I was ignorant, and blind to those around me and letting myself be propped up at the expense of our people. And I'm tired of being served and I'm tired of taking the easy way out. And I'm done being your prince." Rhea: "You sound just like her. That Kryptonian girl has poisoned you". Mon-El: "No! Mother, that woman is the best thing that's ever happened to me. The best thing I know. And whether we're together or not, being near her, it makes me a better person. It makes me the person that I want to be." (note that he wanted to be a better person independently of getting her back or not).

    Episode 2x17 (at the spaceship, after he agrees to return with them to save Kara from Rhea): Lar Gand: "Your life will always be Rhea's responsibility. But son, you belong with your people. It means so much to them to have you back." Mon-El: "If this is about the people, then some things have to change. One day I will become king. And I want to be a different kind of king. And why not start now? Why not rebuild our kingdom better than it was. And make justice available for everyone. And get rid of rank and make it so that everyone's voice is heard equally." Lar Gand: "This is absurd." Mon-El: "Why? Why is that so absurd? We have a chance to start again, Father. So why should we go and just recreate the same broken system as before?" Lar Gand: "Because it's what the people need. Do you think we survived the destruction of our world by giving everyone a say? Our royal house stood for a thousand years because the people need our order. And our leadership." Mon-El: "Our house would have fallen. So rebuild with me, Father. Please." Rhea "Enough! (she slaps him) It will take us four years to reach Daxam. Maybe if you spend that time in a cell you'll be cured of these misconceptions." (she calls the guards and he is taken prisoner). Again, this conversation happens with only guards as witnesses, with no hope of returning to Earth or getting Kara back. He just said it because it was what he thought.

     

    I don't think that Mon-El started to think about how bad was Daxam society until he decided to stand up against Parasite (this happened at the end of 2x07) and started to question what type of person he could be.

    Note that Mon-El woke up at the end of 2x02 and 2x03 happened in a couple of days. 2x04 is the chapter when Winn and Mon-El go to an bar with a Halloween party (meaning that this happened on 30 October 2016 ). So he woke up from his coma roughly 5 months before his identity was discovered (yes, I know that Kara said in the Flash crossover that he had lied for 9 months, but that would roughly be the moment when his pod landed in Earth - writers in the Flarrowverse are never good with dates e.g. how many years since Kara landed in Earth? they have given at least 3 different dates). The Halloween reference gives us an idea of when 2x04 happened and the rest of episodes (as usual in the Flarrowverse) are supposed to happen roughly when they are released (e.g. the Mxyzpltk episode with Valentine's Day was released on 20 February).

    Remember that TPTB have said that they wanted this character evolution to start from the most distant point to being a hero (shallow and selfish) to thoughtful and selfless. As he woke up roughly 5 months before his identity was discovered, I find the level of distaste that he shows in 2x16 about Daxamite customs to be a quick evolution, to be honest. I don't think that it would be realistic that he started to be self-aware before 2x09.

    Also, as a secondary character and particularly a love interest, his POV does not get a lot of time (just the same as with any conflict with Iris or Felicity what the narrative wants us to look at are Barry's and Oliver's POV).

    Delurking with one wish: please, for the sake of the show, my stomach & my sanity, just kill Mon-Hell.

    Respectfully disagree. For season 3 I want Mon-El to be in the show. I would tone down the romance drama though, I would be happy with them as a background relationship.

    I love Mon-El as a character (his evolution and personality and his funny bits), his relationships (particularly with Kara and Winn) and his role as the cautious one (in contrast with Kara, bringing some balance to their approach to threats) and the fact that he is also DEO and being in connection with other aliens at the bar, which may be useful in the future.

    I think that brings interesting storylines like the Daxamite threat. He is also the one who knows more about other planets because of the way he was raised (e.g. he knew the value of the bounty) and is probably able to be a diplomatic connection to others in future situations, particularly if he gets recognision as King of Daxam now that Lar Gand Is dead, but there is also potential for other storylines related to the Legion of SuperHeroes, the Flight Ring, Dominators...

    Fights with him should be cool. We haven't seen many and I'm excited to get a full battle as Supergirl support. I also love Martian Manhunter, but the CW has not so much money for CGI and scenes with him are cheaper to film. I love Kara but I absolutely adore team-ups. And I want the supersuit too.

    And yes, I love the romance. And I think that Kara is 1000 better in scenes with him that in scenes with Cat (she was constantly bullied) or James (the teen struck by the hot guy who was dating another woman but didn't want her to look somewhere else - see Barry). I really think that Kara is much more confident and leader in Season 2 and for me the main reason is that she is not related to Cat and James and is getting people who really admire her like Mon-El and Lena.

    But I respect that others feel different about Mon-El.

    I had a lot of fun with scenes like the body-controlling fight, game night, mind reading show off, President Carler and whatever she is up to, the spaceship rescue, the Fortress of solitude, Winn's heroics, Mon-El's fun lines, Kara/ Mon-El cuteness together, everything related to the Daxam Royal Family and specially Teri Hatcher who I think is killing it.

    By the way, I don't think that the relationship from Rhea and Lar Gand to his son has ever been a loving one. That phrase about peeling out the little child from her leg creeped me out. And Mon-El didn't seem to be too surprised about being slapped or imprisoned, I wonder if that has happened before. I think that the exile years when Rhea's strength kept him going made Lar Gand be softer. I believe that mom and dad do not love him, that they just need Mon-El to continue the blood line, which seems consistent with how medieval monarchies rules for succession worked. But unless he is recognised as King (which probably should be now that Lar Gand is dead) he will not have real power to change anything.

    I loved the conversation between Mon-El and Lar Gand. No witnesses, no hope to see Kara again, but Mon-El was already trying to change things for the better. Yep, he is trying to be a better person for himself now.

    It's fairly simple to follow season 2, even if you haven't seen season 1. You only miss minor plot points here and there. I do recommend watching season 1 at some point, though. It really is a great season because it's so female focused. And definitely watch the first Flash/SG crossover in season 1. Barry goes over to her earth and it is highly entertaining (with TWO female villains in that episode! TWO!). 

    I would also recommend the episodes 1x16 and 1x13

    (the one with Red Kryptonite and the one with Black Mercy).
