Havenât watched this show in forever but caught the finale on. I forgot how fucking stupid it is that glasses work to conceal their identity. It really makes me more angry than it should.
Supergirl season 2 is a definite improvement over the 1st season but it still feels like a chick flick superhero show at times. The "girl power"politics were a bit cringey and having supergirl be stronger than superman is justâŚI donât know probably the worse Iâve seen superman job since his portrayal in the justice league cartoons.
Moving to the CW greatly reduced the shows budget. Since the CW is co-owned by Warner Bros, they donât have to pay the 1 million plus dollar an episode licensing fee that CBS had to. Edit: Forgot to mention that the show went from filming in California to Vancouver. Those three things saves them a lot of money.
What really got me is that Super Girlâs nemesis in the show is Lex Luthorâs Sister.
That like Krypto the Super Dogâs nemesis is Lex Luthorâs Pet Iguana
No I take it back, the Sister thing is dumber than the Iguana. At least with the Iguana he was presented on a Kids show, so I allow the suspension of disbelief.
Yeah Smallville had Lexâs sister as well but that show is trash and Tess Mercer is badly tacked on
Then again the whole thing about Luthor stealing 40 cakes is canon
Lena Luthor isnât Supergirlâs nemesis. They are friends. Lexâs mother, Lillian Luthor, is her Nemesis. Sheâs the one that founded Cadmus. Her original Nemesis was Maxwell Lord but the actor that played him, Peter Facinelli, lives in California and didnât want to make the move to Canada for the show. Itâs the same reason why Cat Grant (Calista Flockhart) was only in a few episodes.
LOL, so its worst then I thought. Anytime line where Lexâs parents are still alive is trash any ways.
I like the origin story where Lex killed his own parents by cutting the break line on their car (when he still just a kid), getting the insurance money from the death, then suing the car manufacture for the death of his parents for the seed money for his education and his going from poverty to uber rich multi-multi-billionaire.
