Supergirl

Season 1 was quite good and held well to the superhero genre. Season 2 started well but drifted deeply into interpersonal drama. Season 3 started the way season 2 ended, with less emphasis on the superhero and deeply into character emotions/relationships and social issues. These are important discussions, to be sure, but I watch superhero shows to see action and fun, not for deep emotion or for a critical societal exposé.

Frankly I don't care who's straight, gay, engaged, in love, depressed, happy or psychotic unless it directly relates to the villain:heroine story line. Supergirl has, seemingly, fallen to influences (pressures?) far from the original comic book universe. It has become a soap opera.

Supergirl isn't the best superhero show available but I have to admit that I enjoy it more than I thought I would and that's mainly because Melissa Benoist is just about perfect as Supergirl. I love most Superhero movies and TV Shows so I thought I'd give this a chance and I'm glad I did because I really do enjoy it. It's not great by any means but it's also not as bad as some others here say either. I like most of the CW DC shows (Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, Legends of Tomorrow, Stargirl, etc. The only one I don't like is Black Lightening) and while this isn't my favorite I still enjoy it. Even though it was probably the right time to end this show and the last season was the weakest, it still went out in a high note. I'm going to miss seeing Melissa Benoist every week.

This show had promise. Supergirl is too much of a basket case and the agenda of the show is targeted to one audience.

I don't think it's a coincidence that the only good season of this show was the season that was aired in CBS. Everything went downhill the moment it was moved to the CW. At this point I'm not sure if the writers are even bothering to put an effort, they literally don't care that their show is deteriorating. Sucks because Melissa Benoist IS Supergirl, She embodies Kara so well and brought her to life. I can't help but imagine what this show could've been if the networks treatment to the show was a little better. The cast made this show tolerable, they deserve so much more.

I actually enjoyed Supergirl a lot more than I expected and that's mainly because of Melissa Benoist. She's the perfect Supergirl. Besides being beautiful, she's a terrific actress. I hope that they find a way to bring her into the DCEU or even on Superman and Lois. I know James Gunn took over and is starting from scratch but you're not going to find a better Supergirl. The rest of the cast is very good too, they all made the show entertaining for a lot longer than it should've been. Like most shows that stick around long enough the show did start to dip in quality a little in the later seasons so even though it was the right time for the show to end I'm still going to miss it.
