I keep watching this show, but it does nothing for me...Matter of fact, I really only halfway watch it. If it didn't tie into the other three shows I probably wouldn't watch it at all....
I liked last night's episode when she stood her ground for the oppressed and inspired them through her actions.
Just like Superman and his fam are supposed to but then they lost me when she barbarically eye lasered a ship without removing it's inhabitants. Kara's comic book counterpart would never.
On the plus side looks like Melissa Benoist put on some weight. She was looking right.

This forced relationship drama is killing the show.
The first 5-10 minutes wasted on Mon-EL/Kara and her sister's lesbian relationship were draining.
Starting to think the show must have low ratings because these seem like attention-seeking gimmicks more than anything.
Sort of like......."hey, let's throw some gay stuff in here so we can get the LGBT's to watch it."
Or.............."let's push this Kara/Mon-EL thing to draw in the teenage/twilight love story type CW fans."
If they're having to resort to such desperate tactics, the show is probably on it's last legs and won't last longer than another season.
Either that or it might not even get renewed at all.

I never watched season 1 yet I agree.

True, all of the CW D.C. shows have them to some extent.......but it seems forced and unnatural on Supergirl.
Still funny how they're acting like Kara and James were never romantically interested in each other.
That relationship seemed more genuine than what they're trying to push now.

It is weird. Especially since traditionally James and Kara do have a romantic history together in all mediums. Shit he was the only one from the Superman movies to actually appear in the Supergirl movie back in the day.
Also weird since CW prides themselves on being oh so progressive with the homo relationships and making Reggie from Archie asian or Josie from the pussycats black but oh no an interracial romance is too taboo apparently.

They do, but it's only black woman/white man interracial relationships.
Although it shouldn't matter, that's a huge difference.
I'm thinking they don't want to alienate any of their possible crossover(non-superhero) fans.
Matter of fact, they don't even want any black-on-black relationships.
They've had 2 black female legends on the show and haven't given Jefferson a shot at either one of them.
Even when him and Vixen went back in time during slavery days, you'd think they would've formed a bond that would've developed into something more.......but the CW wasn't haven't that.
John and Lyla Diggle = black man and white woman
It's just weird especially since they have better chemistry than Kara and Mon-El.
Speaking of Mon-El so when they announced that both Superman and Mon-El were going to be on the show this season I was hyped. I was hoping Mon-El would still be "Superman's big brother" and all that. Instead they didn't even know each other. It sucked cause it was a big opportunity to have another seasoned DC icon on the show besides J'Onn.
Mon-El has the El name because of his relationship with Superman now it doesn't even make sense. He actually knew the Kents. He also was a leader of the Legion of Superheros, he's been a part of DC canon since JFK was prez and has a wealth of material they could've drawn from. Could've taught Kara a lot as a more experienced supporting player and balance the cast more. Instead he's some frat boy after her pum pum. Like ok but you might as well not have even called him Mon-El.
I hope that if they ever get to Power Girl or Brainiac 5 they show them more respect.

Diggle and Lyla are the only one though......and, even then, they're hardly ever shown together.
Didn't know the backstory on Mon-EL.
Maybe they were afraid his real story might take some shine away from Kara, but it would've definitely made the show better.
With him and Kara practically being from the same planet (they share the same sun), I never understood why he didn't have the same powers she did.
