SUPERGIRL Season 1, Episode 3 "Fight or Flight" Promo

By the way a few cringe worthy moments in the beginning, but I really love this show!!!!!!

Also the CGI is pretty good!!!!!!

Hopefully they will clean up some of the campy writing........

This episode was pretty good. Some of the writing and acting needs a bit of work, but none of them are really from Melissa Benoist, so it's not much of a problem. I wish they would've explored more into her needing to work on saving people without causing problems because I did enjoy her working with the two friends to train and work on saving people.

I think the special effects are decent, but could use some improvements. Guess that's a budget reason. I'm not so sure about the evil Aunt, she's not that good tbh. I loved that actress in Royal Pains though.

Its not horrible..

and yea, the CGI is decent. Really goes to show you the budget difference for a big network

Hopefully the writing improves, reduce Ally Mcbeal's scenes and cut down bringing up Superman. They mention the man of steel way too much if they are looking to make Karol her own character.

There's a lot of good here, but the formula is tired. The "I don't know if I can be a superhero" drama only really works when there are other stakes involved. Like Spider-Man's constant concern that villains will find out about his loved ones. But Supergirl doesn't really have that. She has a bunch of people telling her "you're not good enough".

Which could be a great way to set up her shoving it back in their faces because she actually believes in her own awesomeness (empowerment!), but her biggest wet blanket is her sister who she loves and respects. Shwang wang wang...

At least Flash is surrounded by people cheering for him, so the only thing stopping him from being awesome is his own self doubt (and when he overcomes that, it's good television). I think I'm at a place where just being a competent standard superhero show doesn't do much for me. I'll watch it, and I hope it does well (primarily to incentivize television executives to continue pushing forward with the genre), but I don't get the slightest bit excited by it.

And also, the Jimmy Olsen thing still bothers me. I do feel like the DC shows (CW excepted) really just trade on the marketability of their big two names but only ever constantly teasing something that 1) aint' that great to begin with and 2) they're never going to deliver. And that's sort of tiresome after a while (especially if Krypton gets off the ground... yeesh).

I'm really surprised on how good the second episode was, damn.

Wait wait wait, am I see praise being given to DC for the lighthearted approach of this show, and negativity being spread for the darker tone Marvel Netflix shows? You guys see what's wrong with this picture right? Now Supergirl should be a lighthearted show and should receive praise for it, but what's wrong with DD and JJ being dark? Why is it okay that Supergirl tone is right but not DD and JJ?

Liking this show a lot. Hope it doesn't totally rely on the alien of the week motif (Livewire best not be an ET). And how the hell did Supergirl pierce her ears?

Two episodes in and people criticize what's going on with the character. Do you think the other characters close to Supergirl will continue to doubt her? Of course not. Do you think Supergirl will always be associated with the para-military organization? Maybe not. Sometimes I think a lot of viewers have some sort of ADD when it comes to what these types of shows need...character development. If your going to show a "super hero" that's well into their tenure, then those points of origin are moot. But, if your going to start with the donning of the costume and the start of the mission, things are not always gonna be smooth sailing. I think this attitude was heaped upon Arrow too in the beginning. People should relax and just wait and see where the journey takes us.

I like this show more than I should. It's cheesy, but well made.

I really love comicbook anything especially seeing them come to life, but in reality this show is pretty bad. Cheesy dialog and the whole Supergirl has to prove herself thing??? Come now she freakin SUPERGIRL enough said! The best thing this show does is tie itself to to Man Of Steele movie, and if it makes it past the first season, seasons 2 highlight will be them mentioning Batman thats it.

I thought episode 2 was an improvement on episode 1.

I'm enjoying it! I think the show is very similar to The Flash in feel. And surprised at special effects quality.

I wish they didn't spend so much time TELLING US that she's a female superhero, and just show us she's a superhero that happens to be female.
