Supergirl

Looking forwards to seeing some titty punching action.

CBS has officially given the greenlight to the first season of "Supergirl," set to star Melissa Benoist in the title role. The precise number of episodes has not yet been revealed, but the pilot is expected to debut on the network later this year.


Benoist leads a cast that includes Mehcad Brooks as James Olsen, Laura Benanti as Alura Zor-El, Calista Flockhart as Cat Grant, Chyler Leigh as Alexandra "Alex" Danvers, Jeremy Jordan as Winslow "Winn" Schott, David Harewood as Hank Henshaw and, in mystery roles, Dean Cain and Helen Slater.


Hailing from Warner Bros. TV and Berlanti Productions (who also produce the hit DC Comics series "Arrow" and "The Flash" for The CW), "Supergirl" is based on the characters from DC Comics and centers on Kara Zor-El, who comes to Earth after escaping the destruction of Krypton. After many years hiding her abilities, she joins the ranks of her cousin Superman to become the hero she was meant to be.


The pilot episode of "Supergirl" was written by Ali Adler ("No Ordinary Family") and Greg Berlanti ("Arrow," "The Flash"). They will also executive produce along with Sarah Schechter and Warner Bros. TV.

Man that girl has a potato face ... bad casting there - I prefer an actual hot supergirl.

damn you'd think supergirl would have super titties

Powergirl has the super tits.

She looks better as Mockingbird than she did as Wonder Woman. I suspect its the terrible makeup they did for that promo

On my planet, the 'S' is the symbol for sucks.

Who did you dress up as for Halloween? Failed superhero tv series during the era of Marvel. How'd you manage that? The guy who wrote Man of Steel probably did the costume design.

Starts awful... kindof endearing by the end. A little bit lifetime.. but overall, like it quite a bit.

Looks lame, but whatever. It's obvious they are targeting fat housewives with this one.

In the shot I think I see Braniac. Shame, looks like they have a nice budget going but they can't even afford to put eyebrows on that one woman..

I'm one of those who enjoys the dark, realistic comic book shows as well as the more light-hearted stuff so I don't have a problem with this. I laughed at the lesbian line.

I am glad they went the lighthearted route with this, I don't think Supergirl works in a grimdark setting. Although the relationship nonsense will be even more present than in Arrow or Flash I am sure. CGI didn't look bad, but that goes with having a bigger budget than what the CW gives out. She works more as Supergirl now that I see the show in action then when it was just her first photo reveal. Also wtf happened to Callista Flockhart's face.

looks like her eyebrows were waxed
