The tools of a hero mean nothing without a solid core.

Kara looks off in these flashbacks/transpositions. Is it just that it's been a few years?

That was great. I love this version of Myx being basically Q.

Also the real answer was to take Ben Lockwood out to an island and leave him there. Technically it was the berries he ate that killed him not Supergirl.

When's the last time a show had a clip show?

Wait, I bet it was some lovely CBS Sitcom wasn't it?

Clip shows are generally an artifact of when seasons tended to be way longer and also there weren't things like home video or streaming so the audience wouldn't be *quite* as familiar with what you were showing them (though they still noticed and it's not like anyone liked these things.)

It looked like she was wearing a wig for any of the non-bangs hairstyles.

Yeah, and it changed the shape of her face enough for me. I joke about blonde women looking the same to me, but part of my brain was seriously trying to parse those scenes as Miss Tessmacher in the suit so I may not be wrong.

It also doesn't help that every single woman in the CW shows has The Hair, long on top with loose curls at the bottom. It's really noticeable on Legends because both Sara and Ava have it.

The bangs at least break it up for Kara.

So they really didn't address the fact that Mxxy was being played by a completely different actor, right? And I remember him saying that the 'Council' was punishing him and making him make amends for his actions. What council!? There's some organization in the 5th dimension that polices everyone!?

He said that he put on a younger sexier face to try and woo Kara and went overboard into sexcreep territory and that this was closer to his real appearance.

I like that the show is aware enough to realize that they made his first appearance super creepy and decided to make amends for it.

I cannot remember if the Hat was 5th dimension in origins in the comics.

Not if it means William is the baby daddy. They'll probably just write around it as best they can, but there's also a chance they push the start of season six to midseason, and have Supergirl take over for Legends.

Kara finding out she's pregnant would make one heck of a season ending cliffhanger though.

Butt first, let's

Yeah, writing in Kara being pregnant would be really, really big. Its not the same as like a member of an ensemble workplace sitcom where you may never see the kid. Pregnant Supergirl is some big poo poo.

It makes much more sense to just push back production unless you're ready to commit there.

Alternatively you pull a DS9 and have Kara be a surrogate mother for Alex and Kelly.

Also, of course what's really important is maximum congratulations to Benoist and Wood!

Especially since Superman is getting a show with kids soon, another superbaby is redundant.

I mean, I know Kara loves her sister but I'm not sure the Kryptonian womb of one of Earth's greatest protectors is the best surrogate choice.

Oh no there's more kryptonite in the atmosphere or something. Now Supergirl's stunt double has to spend most of the season wearing that helmet and suit.

Danielle Panabaker on The Flash is pregnant and they've addressed this by just pretending she doesn't have a big preggers belly. She's wearing loose clothes but it totally doesn't hide it.

Kara suddenly stops flying, shooting eye lasers, and fighting robot creatures for 9 months as the CG budget goes entirely to hiding Melissa’s baby bump :v:

Seriously though, that’s incredible news. Congrats to both her and Chris Wood.
