"Addresses".  Cute.

TVLine Writer: "Crazy ideas about Batman"

Ali Adler: "Don't get crazy ideas. You're getting an alien invasion; count your blessings."

Hee. "We spent over a year prying Superman from DC/the WB's cold, clammy hands. You think we had time to work on getting Batman too?????"

Interesting interview with Berlanti, most notably for this quote:

Quote

Supergirl is changing tonally as well as geographically. Berlanti said he tried, and struggled, to add more procedural elements to Supergirl last year, to appeal to CBS' audience. "Then, by half the year, we relaxed and said, we know how to make the show and let's just focus on that. That was our pitch for the second season, which was to double down on what we thought worked about the show, which has more of a character-based mythology element."

I definitely think it's a good thing they dropped the procedural element. That was one of the weaker S1 elements, and produced some of the season's weakest episodes.

Awesome to see Mehcad/James getting some promotion

Also that he knew what Turtle Boy was (and Elastic Lad)!

Actually Jimmy appeared as about ten other lame one-off heroes as well, but those two are the most notorious.

Any publicity is good publicity, right?  Either way, Miley Cyrus apparently takes issue with the name, Supergirl.  Cat might need to dust off her big Supergirl speech again.  Granted, it sounds like Miley doesn't even watch the show, but just saw a billboard for it. 

Miley Cyrus is a pig and an idiot.   Supergirl by any name is a far more positive role model for young women -- for women of all ages, in fact -- than an entitled celebrity spawn whose 15 minutes were extended only by twerking and repeatedly and repulsively sticking out her tongue.

Season 2 Trailer... and it seems we have another classic DC cover tribute in store!

 

(Unspoiled speculation: I don't think this will work out the way Crisis #7 did, though!)

Yes, the image is that classic cover, but also the words of the Cadmus leader (the whole "gods among us" thing) are straight from several other places (unfortunately that includes the shitty Zach Snyder movies, but it includes lots of comic runs too where it wasn't done quite as badly).

Relevant to the "does Cat know?" question, this interview (warning: it has spoilers after the Cat stuff) with AK confirms that CF plays it ambiguous, so the writers can go either way with it in the future. Reading between the lines, I think CF wants Cat to know and just be keeping it to herself, but the writers want the flexibility and don't want to fully commit to Cat knowing.

Her leaving (even if not "permanently") would have made for the perfect time for a reveal though.

And really, the reason the does she/does she not wears on me a bit is that because they had an entire episode plot hang on it at one point. They did still theoretically leave an opening that maybe Cat went along with the impersonation thing (because after years of Super types being around she should be savvy to the possibility of such), but I've always felt they shaded that a hair too much towards her being fooled.

I'll be honest. I wasn't paying attention to anything the person talking was saying. Instead, I was too focused on watching the clip, even though we couldn't hear what was being said. I loved what

Kara did, breaking those chains so easily, smiling and being all adorkable with Barry/Flash! I was giving Arrow the stink eye, though.

Now, which show will this take place?

That's not from a show episode. That the "Superhero Fight Club 2.0" short that The CW released earlier this month as a promo for the new season of it's DC superhero line-up. You can watch the whole thing here on youtube. I thought it was a fun promo short :)

They released the producer preview a day late:

 

But I was glad to see that Ali Adler is still involved; she didn't move to Vancouver with the show. Last season she was always posting set photos on her Instagram.

I wish they would slow down Alex/Maggie a little, but at the same time, YES GIVE ME ALL THE MAGGIE BEING JEALOUS BECAUSE SHE THINKS THERE MIGHT BE SOMETHING BETWEEN KARA AND ALEX situations. That will just be the humorous gift that keeps on giving!

Media barrage on Alex/Maggie (but be warned, several of the articles have spoilers both for their and other storylines): EOnline, TVLine, EW, THR, Kryptonsite.  Kreisberg says in a few of them they were thinking about the storyline last season.

Thanks!!

Shocking that Kreisberg had no idea about the 'bury your gays' trope, though, considering his line of work.
