After a few episodes in the Phantom Zone, Kara (Melissa Benoist) has finally made her way home - with her father Zor-El (Jason Behr) in tow - and it looks like the August midseason premiere will see him try to acclimate himself into Kara's life in National City, which looks to be easier said than done.
As mentioned above, Supergirl will be off until August 24, but when it does return, expect the final run of twelve episodes to air uninterrupted through the Fall, until the highly anticipated series finale, which is tentatively scheduled for November 16. However, whether that last episode will be an extended installment or not remains to be seen.
No word on what to expect from the latter half of the season just yet, but a few plot points to look forward to are the return of John Diggle (David Ramsey) in episode twelve, Kelly Olsen (Azie Tesfai) taking on her brother's Guardian mantle, a pair of dangerous new Big Bads, the return of Mxyzptlk (Thomas Lennon), and, of course, the return of Lex Luthor (Jon Cryer)!
