Of course, Flockhart looks like she's in her 30s.
Haven't seen many 30-year-olds, have you?
Spoilers Supergirl - Season 1
- Thread starter Commander Richard
- Start date
Flockhart does still look really good though for her age (and if she's had any plastic surgery it was really subtly done and not really noticeable in interviews), so it's odd to me that the show puts her in such extreme soft focus for every closeup. I assume it's something she requested (like the Laurel actress on Arrow), but all it does is just draw more attention to itself and make her face look even more unnatural.
So, is he truly outrageous? Truly, truly, truly outrageous?
Flockhart looks like she's aged about 15 years, and I mean that as a compliment. I would be worried if she still looked like what she did during Ally McBeal.
Well, I would certainly agree she looks good (and I won't say "for her age" she just plain looks good) though I'm not too big of a fan of her body-type. Though, I was big fan of her looks back in the "Ally McBeal" days.
But she doesn't look in her 30s. She looks in her 40s. Which she isn't.
But in her 30s? No way. Only if our hypothetical 30-something-year-old had been a heavy drinker and smoker for the last 20 years of their life.
(Not saying Calista is either, but she'd have to be in order to look like a 40s-year-old woman in her 30s.)

Generic plots never bother me much if the character interaction and dialogue is fun (some of BTVS's best episodes barely had plots
). But look at what we get in this one - a really skeletal "Hate dealing with family during Thanksgiving" set-up featuring by-the-numbers confrontations - "Why am I not good enough/I'm hard on you because you're capable of so much" - that are vaguely resolved on the way to the Big Reveal about Dean Cain's character that moves the metaplot forward.Not buying Kat Grant's little breakthroughs in her interactions with Kara, either. How much imagination did it take to sketch in the fact that tough workaholic Grant's got a rough relationship with her own mother?
It's okay to put a story together with notes on cards, but at some point you have to go beyond the outline to write a script. Didn't see that here.
It's early yet. I'd rather they get that family stuff out of the way now so we can be done and not have to have endless angsty episodes dealing with it later. More knockdown dragout super power beatdowns, says I.
^ God no. Fighting gets old. I never understand why people want to see endless fights and battles.
I still haven't seen "Livewire". I'll get two episodes on Monday. I thought we'd miss some development with Lucy Lane and Jimmy and someone here confirmed it. Even if it's not much, even if it's predictable, it's still something and I want to watch everything in order.
for some, it might be the result of being part of the video game culture. Big on overblown action, light on character development. That's why some like the Star Wars prequels while writing off the original films--and you'll usually find their favorite element to be lightsaber fights (more = better) and very over the top, video-game-like characters like Darth Maul, or Sidious.

Well after three seasons of Arrow and one of Flash, I've guess I've just learned to put up with those kind of overly angsty and melodramatic character moments in a Berlanti show by now. And while it might have been unoriginal, the revelation we got about Cat still did the job of softening her and making her seem a bit more complex than before, which is good enough for me.
Certainly it would be nice to see the writing become richer and more complex as the show goes on, but right now I'm just enjoying the really fun and optimistic spirit and how much it feels like this perfect mix of the Donner movies and Lois & Clark.
Was Supergirl fighting Ke$ha!?!?
Another one of those moments...Henshaw had to tell her to take the bomb up...I was ahead of both of them.
That last scene between Max Lord and Supergirl was very similar to the confrontation between Lex and Superman in the Lois & Clark Pilot.
The Lord plot is sort of tiresome and predictable
Alex says--
--after seeing the follow up episode last week, it is suggested Jimmy is that idiot. Then, Kara buying Lucy's sob story about the nature of the breakup is pushing Kara to willingly walk into that dreaded "friend zone," but up to this point, Jimmy is not treating Kara as just another cape to chase.
I'm in favor of the Kara/James relationship going forward, but if this is going to be a running "will they/won't they," with a character sold as her dream guy, its just the confusion /doubt subplot so draining to a series. Its no better than--
About the bomb--why didn't Supergirl go straight up in the first place? That's the only direction with the best chance for minimal damage.
Now that Kara and Alex are investigating the death of their parents, will Kara remember she spotted Super-Henshaw's red eyes, and know she was not just being loopy from the fall?

Unless she went into space, raining shrapnel could "possibly" kill a lot of people.
Space is 50 to 62 miles up depending on who you ask, which seems more about rounding to the closest 50 than how dark it is up there... 62 miles is a 100 km.
Dropping a bucket of sand from 30 miles up could probably take out most of a small city.

My DVR currently does not believe episode 5 exists. It didn't record it and On Demand knows about 6 and 7 upcoming and the last four but not this episode.
The naughty pirates have fourth dimensional brains.
Last week in the torrent forums episode 5 aired, and this week was episode 4.
The future will never know this temporal glitch happened.
Syndication, DVDs, and legal streaming libraries may continue to respect the glitch, because they are resources that are all managed by 3 dimensional twits.
This glitch will probably be preserved forever.
