This just feels like something which isn't going to have a second season.
You're not the first person I've heard say that, but nah man Melissa in that Supergirl outfit is the winner for me.Does noone else find the sister prettier?
It is. The pilot was all over the place and everything felt rushed. They tried to implement feminism, coming of age, one antagonist for the pilot and one for the whole show, quite a few characters, their relationships and her history. They failed spectacularly and it's a shame, since the show's actors seem to be decent. At least that's what I think, but since Gotham has its fans this will probably find its place as well.It just appeared in the usual places. I can't bring myself to download it though. I just know it's going to be some shitty teen angst comedy like all the others they make in America.
I have a high tolerance for shitty superhero stuff, but this pilot was just not done well or any decent IMO. The best thing is probably its potential and the actors. It could go down the same route as Agents of Shield improve a lot or it could stay on a similar level to Gotham and what is currently Arrow. With that being said I have no idea, why I still keep on watching Arrow."Failed spectacularly" is a bit much. The pilot wasn't great, but it showed a decent amount of promise I think. I have a feeling I'll enjoy it less than Arrow, Flash, Daredevil, and (probably) Jessica Jones, but I'm pretty sure it'll be better than Gotham and Agents Of Shield.
Plus, she looks so fecking good in the costume, and for a simple guy like me, that goes a long way.
Me too. This is one show I'm clearly watching for the actress and nothing else."Failed spectacularly" is a bit much. The pilot wasn't great, but it showed a decent amount of promise I think.

Plus, she would be the only one that stand the power of his spurt. It would blast a normal woman's head off.What's the point in Supergirl? She exists in the same world as Superman (and Batman). Surely, if there were some huge threat to the world, those superheroes would want to come along to help save the day? But, no. They leave the fate of the world to one young girl. It only takes a quick check to see what's trending on Twitter.
"Shit, the world is about to end. Oh, wait. Let me just Whatsapp Superman". That's what I'd be thinking.
I've never understood why Superman and Supergirl exist in such separate spheres of influence. Between the two of them, they should be able to deal with every single world issue in about 5 minutes.
Also, there are many cultures where cousins marry. If these two wanted to re-create the Krypton species, they should be getting it on. It may seem distasteful, but when the future of your entire fecking species hinges on it, you've got to take the risk.
You could say the same for a lot of superheroes, Supergirl has less of a reason than most, she's basically a god and is about as powerful as Superman, Batman and Green Arrow are just billionaires with some toys.What's the point in Supergirl?

This show is superb, S2 and S3 are really excellent. While S1 was a bit shit but showed promise at the end."Failed spectacularly" is a bit much.

Agreed and I found Smallville dull. She is very good looking though so i'm conflicted.Well he has a point AoS was ropey as hell Season 1, I thought it was nailed on to be cancelled up until like episode 18.
But that dramatic turn around was because of the movie ties in, so it could be argued that although that saved them, did it also hold them back because they were constrained to move forward with the plot until that happened ?
Season 2 and 3 have been massive improvements, I agree and the problem for this show is that there was always the kernel of a good idea in AoS, this just looks like a bad version of Smallville.
I agree, but he also singled out Gotham as being not as good. I mean seriously wtf? Gotham is amazing. Each to their own I suppose.This show is superb, S2 and S3 are really excellent. While S1 was a bit shit but showed promise at the end.
I thought Gotham was meant to be rubbish? It had rubbish reviews at the start.I agree, but he also singled out Gotham as being not as good. I mean seriously wtf? Gotham is amazing. Each to their own I suppose.
Its a pretty solid cop show, not a superhero show. Depends what you're in to.I thought Gotham was meant to be rubbish? It had rubbish reviews at the start.
What the actual feck? Nah, it's feckin amazing! Really dark and gritty and some amazing performances. The Penguin for one is superb. It gives a great insight in to Gotham City and all the criminals before Batman came along. It also shows all the Batman characters in their early years quite well. I love the Flash and Arrow and Agents of Shield, but I think Gotham is superb. Its first series was as least as good as the first series of Arrow.I thought Gotham was meant to be rubbish?

Yeah, I don't like Arrow... I read loads of reviews and caftards said it was shit so didn't bother with it tbh.What the actual feck? Nah, it's feckin amazing!

Fair enough mate. It's been up and down for a while but I thought the first series was really good.Yeah, I don't like Arrow... I read loads of reviews and caftards said it was shit so didn't bother with it tbh.
Season 2 was one of the best seasons of all the comic books shows imo, it's worth slogging through season 1 to get some of the backstory necessary for that although it's not vital. Season 3 onwards has been shite though.Yeah, I don't like Arrow... I read loads of reviews and caftards said it was shit so didn't bother with it tbh.
If you ask most Batman fans, they all say that Gotham is absolute shite and actually not doing the whole world any justice. I completely agree with that.What the actual feck?

I thought Gotham was pretty rubbish. Watched the first episode and hated it so much didn't bother to watch the rest of the them. But each to his own I guess. Supergirl pilot was pretty standard, but like most guys here, I think Melissa Benoist is absolutely gorgeous in her costume, so yeah, would give it a go, prolly 5-6 episode before deciding to continue with it or not.What the actual feck?

I preserved through season 3 mostly because of the crossovers with Flash which is awesome and I like the first 2 season. Was waiting whether they could turn it around. But the season as a whole is pretty bad. Season 4 looks ok-ish, but still haven't been good yetSeason 2 was one of the best seasons of all the comic books shows imo, it's worth slogging through season 1 to get some of the backstory necessary for that although it's not vital.

Like I said, each to their own. I couldn't give a feck what most Batman fans think. I like most of the versions of Batman and enjoy their different take on it all. I was a fan of the early comics and read them until I was a teenager, I loved the old Batman TV series and enjoyed the old film even though it was completely stupid. I then enjoyed the first two Batman movies with Michael Keaton because they captured the true dark feel of Gotham and the entire comic book series. I then also didn't hate the next two films because they captured the silly side of the early TV series and film.If you ask most Batman fans, they all say that Gotham is absolute shite and actually not doing the whole world any justice. I completely agree with that.

Yup I do think it's shit. I am however strangely entertained by it, it's so shit it's good. I enjoy every episode.If you ask most Batman fans, they all say that Gotham is absolute shite and actually not doing the whole world any justice. I completely agree with that.

I'm similar with Arrow as I am with TWD now - too invested to stop watching so slogging through till it ends. Admittedly less so with Arrow as the Flash crossovers are usually class (and there are more enjoyable moments within poor episodes).I preserved through season 3 mostly because of the crossovers with Flash which is awesome and I like the first 2 season.

EDIT: Hmm, maybe it's not shit then. I do have great taste.

I'll take your word for it, but I ain't jumping back on board, season 1 was just so damn bland that it effectively ruined the show for me. And unlike Arrow season 3, it had no previous good will to balance the slogging through terrible episodes.This show is superb, S2 and S3 are really excellent. While S1 was a bit shit but showed promise at the end.
