Guardian beats up some bad guys and then James brags about how cool Guardian is to co-workers. Didn't I see this multiple times this season ? I also feel like yelling at the screen "okay Alex, we get it, you're a lesbian!"
Kara promising to save a missing woman which lands her on another planet with Mon-El. That's what gets my attention. Otherwise you just get too much "I'm James and I'm the awesome Guardian!" and Alex "I'm a lesbian now and I have a girlfriend!" stuff. Sorry but neither add anything to the story really, but repetiveness.
It's called Supergirl and yeah I watch it to see her take on some super villains. Or in this case, trapped on another planet.
Guess who's back! Yeah, I really missed Supergirl and I was waiting for this episode so badly. Supergirl at her most heroic performance so far. It was very interesting and I'm glad the writers noticed this show is called Supergirl and not the Adventures of Supergirl's friends. I love seeing Kara as a reporter. Back in season 1 it all meant a lot to her. Losing her job was just too painful so having her going around being a reporter was incredible.
Outstanding performances tonight. Winn and Mon-El were absolutely awesome. Winn's facial expressions always get me, and today, he was awesome. Yeah, Winn, indeed it's Stargate. I won't buy the Kara/Mon-El thingy. The final scene showed a brother/sister relationship and I feel like the show is trying to show it, but it doesn't quite fit. And now we can all agree Mon-El is the prince right? I mean, it's quite obvious isn't it? If not, why did the Dominator bow?
Anyways, solid episode. Loved Winn's interactions, but I need more Roulette, though. She's an awesome character and her business relations are so funding weird. She's the Napoleon of business. I love her character, she's so creepy. And the Dominator? Not really sure why they have to buy slaves when they have mind control technology, though.
And I never thought it was possible, but they've managed to make James even more unlikeable. He bounces in the office talking about how brave Guardian is and how many bad guys he's captured and no one notices? Please James wear a name tag: I'm Guardian, yes, I know I'm awesome. I don't give a rat's as about him.
Loved the quotes this episode: "This planet socks" was pretty funny, as well as "Start the car" and "I'm not a red shirt, you're a red shirt" got me rolling on the floor. The dialogue was really sparkled today. Gotta love these guys.
Now let's wait for another Likewise episode next week.
Yea i think it is now safe to say mon el is the prince and he probably did something selfish to escape daxam but is now regretting it seeing how gallant kara the kryptonian is. He is learning a lot on earth. Been telling my friend who also watches this show this theory from the beginning. The way mon el told kara his story of how the prince sacrificed himself to save him feels like he is trying project himself as a good person via the prince story
I started watching Supergirl after I saw the super 4x crossover because I was super intrigued about Mon-El (he's so clueless and adorable! Even though he can be a world class jerk sometimes).
So yeah, I'm still basically watching Supergirl because I ship Karamel and because of how awesome and hilarious Winn is.
I really miss Cat's snarkyness though.
This is the first Kevin Smith directed DC TV show that I've given a low score for. Pee-yew!!
I am driven crazy every time they say "yellow Sun". WE HAVE A WHITE SUN. If we had a yellow sun all snow would be yellow, and unsafe for consumption.
The police girl was clever, and they were easily defeated.
Roulette character.. Awful... Actress playing it even more awful. She always gets her ass kicked but always smirks at Kara!... Lol.
To make Alex a dike its one thing... To dedicate entire scenes to it... It just makes me vomit. If I want to see 2 girls eating eachother I'd watch porn, not an "adventure tv show". James/Guardian.. Lame lame lame. I'm getting a Arrow vibe here, loser/lame alert! Wr have another Laurel... Might just be my 2nd show ever i quit watch it before in ends
Was it just me that felt like this was an ode to Stargate SG1 first episode and movie.
first time I watched this series, the lines are too cheesy.

Supergirl is finally back, which means that I'm back to getting up at 4:30 AM just to bring you these dank-ass reviews that you guys love so much (sarcasm alert) before I have to go to school.
I think the writers finally remembered that Kara is the title character. This episode focused more on her and put her at the center of the story instead of sidelining her like the last few episodes did.
I just have to say, Roulette certainly knows how to make an entrance. And going from running an underground fight club in National City to running intergalactic slave trade on another planet? That is impressive. I mean, I don't condone her actions, but you gotta admire her talent for business.
I hope that we'll get to see more of Kara the Reporter. Working at CatCo used to be such a big part of her storyline, integral to her growth as Supergirl, and now she's barely ever there. If Cat Grant were here, she wouldn't stand for this.
And she most definitely wouldn't stand for the whole Man-Hell mess. They're trying to make him a more likeable character because they want the audience to jump aboard the Karamel ship. Well, how do I put this politely? You've got to be fucking kidding me. This guy was a selfish, immature jackass right from the get-go, he was just plain rude to Kara on multiple occassions, he didn't want to have anything to do with the superhero business until the plot needed him to. Honestly, it would've been so much better if he had stayed Kara's clueless little brother. She even compared him to her cousin at one point, so how can you not get creepy incest vibes from this relationship? I know I do.
(Sidenote: I feel like the writers saw Katie McGrath and her magical inability to play a straight character, realized that a lot of people shipped Kara and Lena, and scrambled in panic towards the writers' room to get Kara together with the first male character they could think of because we already have one (1) LGBT character on this show and now Kara has to be an Outstanding Heterosexual or the homophobes would lose their minds.
Sidenote #2: I didn't really ship Karolsen in season 1, but goddamn it, I'll take it over Karamel any day.)
I liked Winn's storyline. Jeremy Jordan nailed all the emotions that our beloved computer geek had to deal with after his brush with death. And his excitement when he managed to overcome his fear and defend himself was adorable.
Alex and Maggie were happy and domestic, Maggie was wearing Alex's shirt, Alex's heart eyes were out of control and I fucking died. Then the angst came, but fortunately, it was resolved pretty quickly. And damn, Maggie was sporting such a gay look in that last scene. Amazing.
"- Plus, the glasses don't help.
- I always said that too. It's kind of ridiculous."
Oh, thank God. At least one person's noticed how lame Kara's disguise is. I knew that Maggie "I'm a Detective, Agent Danvers, I detect" Sawyer wouldn't let me down.
