>Blood Bonds
>A standoff ensues between the DEO and Astra's forces also Non kidnaps Hank, while Kara tries to refute Cat's allegations that she's Supergirl.
>This show was stupid. Has it gotten better?
Yeah, it's improved a lot since the Livewire episode. Less hamfisted and there's been some really good character development.
>What can you say to sell me on the show?
Hank Henshaw is actuallyMartian Manhunter.
Do you think Cat will use her knowledge of Kara's secret identity to blackmail her into....doing stuff?
Wait I thought Supergirl didn't come back until next week!

I read blackmail but thought black male
>>78674628
Don't touch my waifu like that. She's pure
The mid-season finale ended on a really fucking good cliffhanger, I'm excited to see what happens now.
>>78674493
Same. I am glad I checked again.
>taking J'onn hostage
YOU DONE FUCKED UP NOW
Never thought about that. Just how many times have superheroes fought in the air only to be interrupted by a passing plane?
Guys, is this Hypercrisis?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dk9Mzu4vDxY
Max, the handsome Lex Luthor.
>"unless he has super-powers" lol
>Unless he has secret superpowers you're not telling me about!
Really now.
>>78674799
Everything is part of the Hypercrisis if you squint hard enough.
>>78674399
What kind of stuff?
Are all the fight scenes this shit or is it just when they do air combat?
I really hope they keep Astra as being somewhat morally grey instead of completely evil all along.
>>78674887
the fight scenes aren't the greatest
ASTRA DID NOTHING WRONG
>>78674399
It crossed my mind earlier today that she might come to the conclusion that knowing compromises her relationship with both Supergirl and Kara and decides to remain willfully ignorant. It's bullshit and I hope it or something like it doesn't happen, but it would be funny to see people flip out over it.
>>78674887
The air combat is shit because of their TV budget. The rest of the fights aren't THAT bad.
>>78674887
"Wires and green screen" budget needs to be increased.
A white hair streak, the evil goatee for female twins
>>78674799
Man, she's so much hotter black-haired.
>She thinks I'm supergirl
Bitch, she KNOWS you're supergirl.
Supes
Kara is adorable when she is flustered.
>>78674399
once J'onn gets out he will pose as either Kara or SG with her in the same room and Cat will do the "I was so sure" routine
its over, supergirl
Why is she so scared of her boss knowing she's Supergirl? She not snitching on her right?
>>78674799
Reminder that the white guy is both Benoist's real-life husband and is going to play Cat's secret son and Kara's midterm love interest on the show.
>>78675020
It's going to reach critical levels and melt the board!
I'll be disappointed if they backtrack on Cat knowing who Kara is. It's much better if she knows.
>>78675020
Supergirl's actress is way better than any of the CW verse leads. She's got Gustin's charisma and dorky awkwardness, but can sell dramatic scenes a hell of a lot better.
Cat a best.
>>78675024
Yep, that's going to happen. And it will be SG because J'onn can bench press a buick like Kara can.
>>78675060
Same here. I like the idea of her supporting cast all being in on the secret. Plus it's better than making Cat Grant look stupid by having her remain oblivious.
>>78675103
>Plus it's better than making Cat Grant look stupid by having her remain oblivious.
Like they did with Lance on Arrow?
>>78675103
yeah but Cat seems like the person who would tell Kara "ratings are down fly around some so we can get pictures or I squeal"
Is Limitless good?
>>78675194
Yes.
>>78675194
Yes. I think it's the best new show. It has a fun sense of humor.
>>78675194
Yes. It's fun. It can be serious but it can also be silly at times. But it's a good tongue in cheek silly.
You got GOT
I love J'onn.
Best. Twist. Ever.
Jesus, Cat. Why don't you say, "Supergirl" a little louder?
>preemptively snap your neck
MAN OF MURDER

Can we have more Secret Adventures of Martian Manhunter in this show? Please
why doesn't Cat just shoot Kara in the foot to see if she takes any damage?
>>78675366
maybe that's the secret power of Kryptonians
Supergirl's evil aunt can get the tip
Kill your only telepath...stupid kryptonian.
HA HA TIME FOR GOVERNMENT-SANCTIONED TORTURE
>>78675387
She can't risk the bad press and potential jail time if Kara was an actual human.
Lmao I hate how comic shows make this look like it's so evil when this alien bitch has murdered tons and is about to enslave the planet. But the soldiers are bad for torturing her? gtfo
>>78675469
Who said it was bad? Kara cares because it's her ain't.
Huh. The Day the Earth Stood Still came out in 1951. General Lane would have to be well past seventy to remember seeing it (assuming he saw it first run).
>>78675469
That's pretty fucking brutal regardless of who they're using it on.
But yeah Alura is still definitely not a nice person, but you can acknowledge someone's a villain and still think that literal torture is wrong.
>>78675469
There is a huge segment of people who think torturing someone is worse than killing them.
>>78675543
There was a smaller theater in my hometown that showed older movies alongside second-runs of more recent films. It's not unheard of.
>halfway through the show
>17 unique posters
First time watching the show and I can already tell supergirl has a solid fanbase
>>78675469
Any chance to make the (American) military look bad has to be taken. That's how television works.
>close the door
YOU KNOW SHE CAN HEAR THROUGH WALLS
>>78675543
He could have seen it on VHS as well.
>>78675545
They're doing it to save lives. It's literally the only way to make her talk
>Every minute you waste in here means a person who's not getting saved out there!
>>78675586
And this is without going against Gotham which is the more popular show here.
it's kind of sad that i can see how this cat plot will end.j'onn will reveal himself to kara, shapeshift into her as supergirl and cat will see supergirl outside while kara is inside at the same time.
Soneone is getting shoot in the head.
Max Lord is actually a halfway competent shady-as-fuck businessman.
>>78675676
Yeah, that's a twist I was not expecting. Usually when the supervisor finds out an underling has superpowers, they don't want them to leave their sight. This is the first where the supervisor wants them to go off full time.
>>78675683
I love Gotham. I got into Supergirl because Gotham went on Winter break.
>that cape shielding
niiice
Well at least they sent the indestructible bullet-sponge in there to verify Astra's info.
Ok I get her having super durability, but how does her cape not get burnt..?
bye-bye Echo Team
gotta love how these shows make military look stupid and constantly walking into traps
>>78675676
I feel like all of this really is just leading Cat to be convinced that Kara isn't Supergirl. Don't do it, showrunners.
>>78675755
"Kira" is letting perfectly good stories go to waste dillydallying over lattes. Of course Cat would hate that.
>>78675809
its Kryptonian
>>78675838
She'll know it's a ruse but she can't prove it.
>>78675809
Made from Kal's babby blanket.
It must have been a huge blanket.
I'm thinking even if you can legally fire someone just for being a superhero you'd have to prove it.
SHIT
EVERYONE'S RUNNING ENHANCED INTERROGATION TONIGHT
jesus max
Damn, Paul Rudd.
He bout to catch dat Jason Todd
Geez, what a drama queen. Just tell her.
>>78674493
I thought it came back the same week as Flash and Arrow. I guess I'll have to catch this episode online.
>>78676004
DISCOUNT Paul Rudd. Get it right.
I want Cat's necklace.
Can Kara and Clark tell when someone is lying like Daredevil can?
>>78676089
Clark can, but I don't think Kara is trained to notice those details.
Am I the only one who thinks her aunt is kinda hot?
This episode feels more like a mid-season finale than the actual finale did
>>78676089
Daredevil guy is super smart not just super powered, he killed it in law school. Kara is just some dumb shit assistant.
>Heroes find a way
Melissa Benoist consistently sells the drama really well.
>>78676130
No.
Astra a MILF
>>78676130
Asstra is smokin'.
Supergirl's hair is always fabulous when she's in costume. Who does her hair so fast?
Holy shit, this set QUALITY
>>78674628
Now this is advanced autism
Awww, good job making Alura more rounded without going "SHE WAS THE EVIL ONE ALL ALONG!"
>>78676130
there's a reason her actress was a playboy bunny in that horrible show about the playboy club
> YOU BETRAYED THE LAW
TONIGHT THERE'S GOING TO BE A JAILBREAK
SOMEWHERE IN THIS TOWN
>>78676130
well the mid-season finale was basically just a two-part cliff hanger.
>>78676227
WHAT
>this car commercial
>kids being this excited over a fucking car
My suspension of disbelief is ruined.
>>78675966
Depends on the state. In a right to work state, an employer can terminate someone without reason, they will just have to pay unemployment.
>>78676296
it was on NBC so no nudes sorry bro
Can't she just super speed blitz these jokers?
>>78676361
Whatever, it'll do.
She could've been Zatanna when she was younger. Whew.
>>78676395
Then she would give Lane a reason to consider her a danger. Kara doesn't want that to happen.
OF COURSE IT'S AN AMBUSH YOU IDIOTS
>You have to transform!
YOU FUCKING IDIOT
SHE HAS SUPER-HEARING
well Alex just spilled the beans on Hank/J'onn
It's funny how Superman doesn't give a shit about invading Kryptonians
He's totally going to betray Astra.
>>78676502
>implying he's not off saving the world from bigger shit
>the show didnt forget kara has superhearing
thanks show
And now Kara's in on J'onn's identity!
Well you guys called it
>>78676525
naw he's just railing Lois whenever he can
"No, you can't."
Heh.
called it >>78675706
God dammit show. What do you have to gain by this?
I love how she keeps calling her Kira on purpose.
BACK TO STATUS QUO
Well, damnit.
>another talk with clark
cute, even though it's just another motivational speech thing
i really wanna see Kara txt Clark back with "do your dam job and round up these alien prisoners"
Aw that was a really cute scene.
>Astra and the Kryptonians is now a B plot to Max Lord
I... don't know what to think of this?
So Maxwell is basically her personal Lex Luthor in this canon right?
>52
HYPERCRISIS
Fuck
>Room 52
IS THAT BIZARRO SUPERGIRL?!
>>78676668
WAIT WHAT WHERE
>>78676663
Cept he seems to be a better Lex than anything we've seen on tv or movies for a long time
>>78676653
Same! "She may be my Aunt but she is yours too! Get your ass over here!"
Who's the chick in the bed?
>>78676663
That's BEEN established
>>78676706
One of the papers said "Jane Doe".
>>78676685
She somehow turns into Power Girl? Or could be getting a girl Brainiac?
>no more Cat suspects Kara is supergirl shenanigans
awwwww
Did this show really have "white male privilege" as a villain? Also, why is Jimmy Olson a down-to-earth guy? That's the last thing Jimmy Olson should be. Why didn't they just make Jimmy Olson the white awkward guy and the other guy a new character, like Diggle?
>>78676702
She's only Clark's kind-of aunt, his father's brother's wife's sister.
>>78676744
If Cat is as smart as she seems, and if the writers have any brains, she'll realize soon that it was all a trick.
>>78676761
>villain
One-off punchline for a character that literally only appears in one episode. Chill the fuck out.
>>78676761
You're baiting to hard friend
>>78676786
Seriously she's got to realize that there are shapeshifters out there if we've got all this crazy alien shit running around in this version of the DCU.
>>78676791
>>78676796
I was legitimately asking. The instant I heard it, I rolled my eyes and deleted the recording because the dialogue was hamfisted anyway. But seriously, I just don't get why they made Jimmy Olson a sociable guy. I don't care about his skin color, it just doesn't make sense to me.
>>78676786
Cat will accidental spill something super hot on "Kira" and notice she doesn't get burned then Cat will get all suspicious again
Soooo are we getting Power Girl or what?
>>78676983
Maybei hope
>>78676876
He's usually depicted as sociable in the comics. There's more to him than weird Silver Age stories.
I didn't even know it was back so soon. I guess I'll catch it on demand tomorrow
>>78677135
You should, this was a good episode, apart from the return to the status quo right at the end.
FYI there's no new episode next week. It'll be back on the 18th.
>>78677220
why
>>78677076
Oh, ok then. To be honest, I don't know too much about Superman characters. I just thought that the writers were just being edgy with the source material to say it's "completely different unlike anything you've ever seen".
>>78677220
Thanks for updating me.
>>78677220
Well
>>78677318
No idea
>>78677318
state of the union next week maybe?
>>78677709
>Truly, you are a Supergirl™ with Scorpion™ potential.
>Sorry, autocorrect. Meant to say Limitless™ potential
>>78677827
All three hours of Monday night tv on CBS are reruns next week, not being replaced with something else.
>>78676761
>Also, why is Jimmy Olson a down-to-earth guy? That's the last thing Jimmy Olson should be
Jimmy has always been down to Earth.
>>78678050
Perfect
>>78677329
>I don't know too much about Superman characters
And that didn't stop you from posting and getting pissed off
instant message Clark is best Clark
>>78679474
I like to imagine he's off on the other side of the world beating up evil subterranean magma robots or some shit and still finds time to chat with her.
>>78674362
>Yeah, it's improved a lot
>>78680828
The end.
