No Lena, the worst you was after Lex came up and told you that your totally not gay crush Kara was Supergirl. Shooting him was a morally correct decision, Lex is a threat to not just humanity, but reality.

I wish I was half as good looking as Jessie Rath did in that suit. 2009 wasn't that long ago. Assure me it wasn't that long ago. Mia singing 9-5 is pretty great. Also glad they had Kara have a boyfriend rather than some Milhouse that followed her around that she had to deal with. twistedmentat fucked around with this message at 04:43 on May 5, 2021 |

I watched the last two episodes yesterday and I loved the second part of the 2009 episode, though it being only 2009 made me feel really old. That was still 10+ years ago dang. I do like how they didn't make the guy that hangs around with Kara be her actual boyfriend and not just her hanger on that's totally in love with her but she's oblivious. The second one was pretty crummy until Brainy being afraid of balloons.

So Supergirl is now a childrens level issues show? It might as well have a bit at the end where Kara comes out and tells you "remember to separate your paper types!"

Tiggum posted:The most powerful people on the planet being told that time is running out to do anything about climate change and going "That sounds bad. Someone should probably do something about that, at some point." and then carrying on as usual is pretty realistic tbh. "Yea we should really do something about that, but we have to consider the effects on the stock market" is what non insane leaders say. The insane ones just deny it or assume its not a problem because Jesus is going to come back tomorrow.

I'm confused about the folded American flag in Alex and Kelly's apartment. Aren't those given to family members who have had someone die in military service? Who died? It seems weird set dressing to have randomly in an apartment. It would be like having an Oscar just there. Something that specific needs an explanation. I guess maybe Dean Cane died?

bobkatt013 posted:And killed them off once they got really bad Kevin Sorbo was a well known shithead chud before he was on Supergirl. I think Dean Cane on relatively recently started being lovely? Like most of his stuff has been direct to video/streaming talking animal family movies. Waiting for them to have James Woods on.

Tiggum posted:Andrea and William were talking to Kara right in front of a picture of Supergirl. The whole idea that people can't identify these super heroes is absurd and dumb and the show should really not be drawing attention to it. I think Kara blends in better than Clark. Supergirl is this glamorous blond, who wears a red cape and a form hugging body suit. Kara Danvers looks like a woman who's facebook relationship status has her married to her cat and has a masters in library science. They are real good at making her look pretty plain and unremarkable, which is pretty hard when you're dealing with one of the most attractive people on TV. But yea, one of the big concets of superheroes is that people can't tell when a superhero is right in front of them if they're wearing glasses or a hat. Also, you'd think Nia would have a doctors note that she has narcolepsy to explain her falling asleep every so often due to her powers.

If the reason of the episodes were bad PSAs, i'd be pretty happy. I really love how everyone just trusts everything Nyxi says without a second thought. twistedmentat fucked around with this message at 01:39 on Sep 10, 2021 |

Okay, I've met a lot of people from Newfoundland, and not one of them sounded like anyone in that episode, also its Newfundlund, you do not pronounce it like a sentence. Also it feels a big late in the series to introduce an entirely new power set for Lena. But this episode had a kitty so not all bad.

muscles like this! posted:Kelly as Guardian seems like they should have either done it much sooner or not at all because this is pretty late in the game to add another hero to an already overstuffed team. Especially one that doesn't exactly bring anything new to the table. Yea, its like the Lena is magic plot, should have been done last season at the latest. I do give them props for not having a Evil Kryptonian as the main villain for the end of the series, Even if Nyxie is kinda meh really.

It feels a bit like they just don't give a gently caress and let the writers do whatever they want, and rather than doing a bunch of wacky one off episodes, they decided to do all the subplots they had dreamed of for earlier seasons.

The idea you have to work in an office to be a reporter is pretty hilarious in the time this show has been on the air. Kara should have just become a blogger or a Podcaster. She could just talk with herself and claim it was an interview with supergirl.

nunsexmonkrock posted:I guess the last couple of episodes of Batwoman were okay too. I saw an ad for Batwoman being all "OMG Alice is back!" and my plan on watching this season when everything else was hiatus during the holidays was scrubbed. Yea, its been like 5 episodes, don't celebrate bringing back a character. It just reaffirmed someone on the writing staff is really attached to Alice and thinks they created a great all time villain. It felt like that with Nyxi too, she was fun in the Phantom Zone but outside of it she was just a frustrating villain because she didn't actually succeed due to being clever, but the writers just deciding she's going to win. Most of the way she got the totems was just popping up and taking it from whomever got it, or forcing them to give it up. Or just the heroes being dumb. But even with all its dumbness the show still could give you positive feelings, it was uplifting and upbeat, something that honestly is really needed now because the world is poo poo and a lot of entertainment seems to still focus on people being miserable.
