Why did Supergirl fail?
>>
So she could learn to get back up.
>>
it didn't fail. it's doing decently well.
>>
It didn't. It's one of the best shows of the decade.
>>
It was on CBS
I don't know what idiot thought that was a good idea when CBS shows require ratings bigger than other networks to survive
>>

The entire concept was premised on the idea that women and young people would watch it in large numbers. Instead, it was largely watched by older men, with the show fewer young viewers than both Arrow and The Flash

just doesnt work bro

Wait, there was a Super Girl?

older women*

I bet at least 33% of the anons here whose mummikins are couch potatoes will confirm that their mother watches this.

my wife watched it, going to cw is honestly the best thing for it

She was a lot cuter back when she was on Glee. What happened?
>>
>>71958538
The show got a 50% male audience, when most scripted shows skew 60%+ female. I doubt the network, producers or production company were expecting it to have so many male viewers, especially since it had so many production choices oriented towards women viewers

Has there ever been a superheroine show on one of the big 4 that didn't?

I agree, I wish she were in more movies.
>>
>>71958822
Well, men like superheroes more than women.

It'll be interesting to see how they rework the show for The CW. The CW superhero shows get wayyyyy more young viewers (i.e. 18-34) than Supergirl did on CBS.

I didn't even know it aired.

>>71959195
Shes the only good thing about the entire fucking show.Everything else is absolute dog shit.Her boss should make any normal person want to press the "explode planet in case of emergency" button. >i'm 90 years old, but i'm still a girl theres nothing wrong with being a girl why would you want to call yourself a woman
WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN?WHO?WHERE?
>>
they didn't choose the fanservice costume
not enough panty shots
they had to tell us why they were strong women instead of showing us

It did not fail in my book. She was awesome and i hope i get second season.

>Why did Supergirl fail?

Rather than make a Supergirl TV show they made a watered down Superman story. Literally every story was a Superman story tweaked for Supergirl. They even made her a watered down CLark Kent, working in media for Not Parry White, with a photog Jimmy Olsen that gave her the key to Superman's fortress.

Wrong network

>>71961072
They wanted to make a Superman series but they couldn't because of muh DC politics. Same shit as Arrow, which is literally watered down Batman

>fucking ally mcbeal is a massive bitch no one likes
>jimmy olsen gets a race change
>the DEA, sorry DEO, trying to keep the illegal aliens in prison where they belong

they had so much shit they could have done to make it like actual super girl but they decided to hope on the SJW bandwagon. the show constantly reminds you (quite literally sometimes) about girl power without actually making any of the women strong.

oh and the fucking name dropping every where they fucking can. that enrages me the most.
>>
>>71960900
This was their chance to get the flash audience.

They honestly couldn't do better?

I remember when the CW had to kill off a bunch of characters because of the upcoming suicide squad movie. I never understood that shit.

>People will be confused if there are 2 different versions of the same character, one on TV and one in the movie
>Proceeds to recast the Flash for BvS

DC politics are retarded and inconsistent.

network television is dead. why would i spend the effort to keep up with a show once a week i don't know i even like yet, when i know i could find something on netflix and watch a few episodes and immediately decide it's good or bad.

because this Jew actress has always been better than her new replacement

She didn't want to go back to the Jew that gave her that show and fuck him again now that she's married.
