Supergirl - Season 1 Review
by iwantmycookies | created - 23 Aug 2016 | updated - 29 Aug 2016 | PublicSeason rating - 7.5-good
Highlight episode - Falling
MVP - Melissa Benoist
My main reason for watching this was the fact it was being moved to the CW and would become apart of that joint universe, and although it had a very weak start, on the whole it wasn't too bad. Benoist is great in the lead and although some of the romance is very hammy and the writing isn't that great, by the end the show was able to remain entertaining enough and had two great episodes in Falling and the Flash crossover. They also did a pretty good job with the Hank Henshaw character which was a nice surprise.
