I thought the latest episode was actually good.
What did you all think? Also, is this the biginning of the end for James and Lucy? Are Kara and James gonna finally hook up by the end of the season?

What? Their relationship's been getting stronger.

Gotham + Supergirl > Flash and Arrow

Was it the one with he train?

I don't know, the biggest flaw in this how is the constant references to other heroes.

There was a time when that was the only reason anyone watched Arrow.

I don't think most casuals even realized that Arrow was a DC show until Barry.

Livewire and the most recent episode were far more watchable than the rest of the series up until this point. I'm hoping this bodes well for the future.

Great episode I agree

Anything Red tornado was terrible, he was like some kind of cheap 80s toy, that retarded "Clark doesn't have to deal with pent up rage issues like us GURLS do" line was the most hamfisted crap ever and to add injury to insult Kara doesn't even notice that when Red tornado reappears he suddenly has both hands again, might've been an important clue to what was going on eh?

Supergirl is the most entertaining shitfest of a train wreck since Agents of S.H.I.T, but unlike Agents it doesn't have Marvel hype train running it, looking forward to it being canned and reading all the tumblr tears.

First three seconds of that webm was literally the only time Supergirl has not been the most cringeworthy shit.

My biggest problem with that scene is how difficult it is to separate Kara from all the grey crap, with Flash they not only highlight the bolts on his helmet with energy but up the color on the costume when he runs, here she just blends in other than the occasional closeup.

So far I've avoided this show. I know this show is bad, but is it entertainingly stupid, like Gotham, or just irredeemable? I'm down for cheesy, stupid fun ever once and a while, but I don't want to watch a show that is lifeless and dull.
>>
>>77866459

It's just really mediocre, what little action is suppressed by retarded drama such as Kara drooling buckets over Jimmy Olsen, someone she only just met like weeks ago, thenhas a complete emotional breakdown when she discovers he has a girlfriend, her ugly betty relationship with Skeleton Cat Grant that wish it be half as clever as it tries to be and the constant barrage of DID YOU KNOW SUPERGIRL IS A GIRL AND A WOMAN AND TOUGH AND STRONG?! CUZ SHE IS.

oh hey it's Whiplash again

>>77866565

That's Obadiah Stane man, he's just wearing a wig.

I'm enjoying the character drama way more then the fight scenes. It's corny but in that 90's Lois&Clark way that I can get into, and it's nice to have a cape show where everyone is generally pretty happy and pleasant to each other.

I'm not going to defend the action though. I can't call Supergirl vs Red Tornado the worst fight scene of the year only because Supergirl vs Evil Aunt Hairpulling And Slapping Contest still exists.

Supergirl is CBS's highest rated show on Mondays and is tied for second among major networks. It has nearly double the total viewership of Gotham. It's not going anywhere.

That's not what was said at all, faggot.

The point that they were getting at is that a woman is usually ridiculed more than a man when they can't keep their cool.

It's the old hysterical woman trope.

The Variety article I linked has the Gotham numbers. It matched a season high. Despite the hate it gets from 4ch, Supergirl also crushes Agents of Shield, by the way.

I meant the numbers for when it returns mr trips. I wonder if that episode's quality will do anything to the ratings.

I actually liked the last episode.
I'm just so sick of /tv/ hating on this show just because she has a crush on a black guy.
Can anyone explain why /tv/ cares about that so much? So she likes black guys who really cares?

>>77871336
/tv/ are jealous because they will never get the bick black cock they all want.

This show needs fewer love quadrangles and more of the hot sister.

>>77871336
Well see, Superman canon, and by extension Supergirl canon, is very well established. With any other hero you can say "here's some parallel dimension where they're black or Jewish." With the super family you know which specific dimension.

So James Olsen is from earth 23, but the rest of the cast is not. This means that Superman had to have kidnapped him from another dimension to manipulate his Kara. Superman is a dick and the villain, but the show is too dumb to notice.

That's probably not why /tv/ is mad tho...

Embracing their bad writing accidentally making Superman the villain is the only way to salvage the show to be quite honest in my honest opinion family.

He told her to shovel coffee for a decade. He laughs at her and plots new ways to torture her psychologically.

>Don't fly Kara. Put on glasses and be a wage slave. You're fine. Nothing can hurt you, especially not little green rocks. What little green rocks? Here: have a hologram of your mother I've been hoarding, and stop asking so many questions or I'll throw your crush back to his home dimension.

>>77871336
Because /tv/ is a bunch of angry small dicked white virgins.
I could care less that Supergirl likes black guys.
Most normal people don't care.
>>
>>77871336
If the people of /tv/ ever went outside, they would see that white woman/black men pairings are everywhere and it isn't that big of a deal.
Can't wait to read their reactions when Kara and James finally fuck.
