lighthearted
It seems many of the critics were expecting something along the lines of Man of Steel or CW's Flash/Arrow, Supergirl is not that. Although the show has two of the same producers of the aforementioned CW shows, it's less dark and moody. It is more of a lighthearted drama with action and comedy. The cast is upbeat and fun to watch especially the lead, Kara Danvers. She is very endearing as she confronts challenges in the real world and in the supernatural world. The background music is solid and uplifting. Some of the dialogue gets cheesy but it doesn't diminish the story. The story is simple and easy to follow. Some sophisticated viewers might find it banal. Hardcore DC comic fans might be disappointed as well by the casting and storyline but for the average viewer, you'll love Supergirl.
