Supergirl (2015- ) TV Series

Postby chouette » Thu Aug 18, 2016 6:27 am

The first season of Supergirl was released last week on DVD/Blu-ray. I didn’t think I would like it but it’s actually not bad at all!

Supergirl (2015- ) TV Series

Supergirl is an American superhero action-adventure drama television series developed by Ali Adler, Greg Berlanti and Andrew Kreisberg (the latter two having previously created Arrow and The Flash) that originally aired on CBS and premiered on October 26, 2015. It is based on the DC Comics character Supergirl (Kara Zor-El), created by Otto Binder and Al Plastino, and stars Melissa Benoist in the title role. Supergirl is a costumed superheroine who is the biological cousin to Superman and one of the last surviving Kryptonians.

The series was officially picked up on May 6, 2015, after receiving a series commitment in September 2014, and received a full season order on November 30, 2015. On May 12, 2016, Warner Bros. Television announced that the series had been renewed for a second season and that it would move from CBS to The CW. It is scheduled to debut on October 10, 2016.

Series synopsis ~

Kara Zor-El (Melissa Benoist) was sent to Earth from the doomed planet Krypton as a 12-year-old by her parents Zor-El (Robert Gant) and Alura (Laura Benanti). Alura gave her instructions to protect her infant cousin Kal-El, and informed her that she, like her cousin, would have extraordinary powers under Earth's yellow sun.

En route to Earth, Kara's spacecraft was diverted by a shock wave from Krypton's explosion and forced into the Phantom Zone, where it stayed for 24 years. During this period, time stopped for Kara so, when the spacecraft eventually escaped the Phantom Zone, she still appeared to be a 13-year-old girl. By the time the spacecraft crash landed on Earth, Kal-El had grown up and become Superman. After helping her out of the craft, Superman took Kara to be adopted by his friends, the Danvers family. The main series begins more than a decade later when the now 24-year-old Kara is learning to embrace her powers after previously hiding them.

The whole superman thing kinda left me cold, though the original B&W series on TV was a nightly staple. I've watched all the new ones, even though I found most of them to be quite boring. I guess I'll give this one a shot, just for the sake of completion... :D

:cheesy


Yep, same here. I like all these superheroes series but this one never interested me in any way. Probably because Superman as a girl is against my principles lol


Upcoming in Season 2.

December, 4 way crossover Supergirl/Arrow/The Flash/Legends of Tomorrow.

Episode 13. Musical crossover Supergirl/The Flash. Most likely as Melissa and Grant were in Glee for a while and they think it'll be a fun thing to do.
Sad Lexa Doig Fan and PROUD of it!
