    You have no idea what you are talking about, and certainly do not understand what Mosely would mean in that situation. I do.

    I doubt a lowly intern would make such a complaint to HR. For someone to do that you got to assume they must be pretty secure in their job to try and bring down someone with stature in the way they did.

    Of course, and Mosely saying he was the "N-word in the room" meant no other black people were there when the incident occurred, so all of the defensive gymnastics performed by someone else are dismissed, but are called out for being born of the same "say anything" mindset used to defend the white liberal power structure Mosely and innumerable black people had and continue to deal with in allegedly "progressive" environments like that behind Star Trek: Discovery.

    Otherwise good news tempered by Superman & Lois going on hiatus. :confused:

    Oh, don't get carried away. Supergirl should be aired from March 30th to May11th (7 episodes in a row IF there is no break) then, Lois & Supeman will come back from its hiatus, on May 18th, what could mean that the remainder of the season 6 would be released this summer (August to September), knowing that the shooting of the last episodes is scheduled in August, according to David Harewood.
    As the Summer audience isn't usually the one watching Supergirl and that usually, people spend little time in front of the TV at this time of year, it will be interesting to see what this will give in terms of ratings for the show.

    To be honest, I am pretty divided on this return. I mean I am both delighted that Supergirl is coming back at the end of the month, what was quite unexpected (I didn't believe Azie Tesfai who has announced a releasing in April and the schedule of programs shared by CW lately, did not mention Supergirl at all in its grid) and disappointed to see that a show which already lasted 5 seasons and will release its 6th soon, will come and plug the hole while waiting for the return of Lois & Superman, the new star program and, will see a good part of its last season aired during a time which does not correspond to its usual programming, what does not usually bode well. It's a little degrading, IMHO. Yes, the quality gradually reduced like ratings, season after season, even s4b was pretty good but, making such a drastic programming change, it's a little brutal!

    Young Kara and Alex to return:

    Evidently they may be used the same way they were in "Midvale," i.e., to cover for Benoist's limited availability. Best possible solution, if so: "Midvale" remains a series standout, and a proper sequel (as opposed to Vidovic's and Nikkanen's all-too-brief subsequent appearances on the show) would be welcome indeed.

    I need opinions on something.

    With Supergirl commencing its final season at the end of the month, I really want to watch it LIVE.

    However, I don't have the time to get familiarized with the storylines that the season will be picking up on due to the previous season having been left unfinished due to the pandemic, and would like to know if people think I could go into the new season 'blind' without being confused.

    Maybe but if it helps I bet you could find season recaps of earlier seasons to sort of fill in the blanks. Jason

    Interesting, thanks. Could episode 5 and/or 6 (“Prom Night”/“Prom Again!”) be the one(s) with young Kara and Alex?

    Or maybe part 1 is the flashback with the teen versions and part 2 is a reunion-themed sequel with the adult versions?

    Have they retroactively made Alan Scott always gay?

    He used to be married to a woman?

    Or was his boyfriend just very afraid of the FBI?

    He had Howard Hughes money.

    Scott could have legalized gay marriage in the 1950s if he really put his mind to it.

    The one character there I can't identify is the one with the Flash-themed costume on the lower left.

    Two things:
    1) Earth Prime Alan Scott just came out to his children

    2) The Flash character on the cover of the DC Pride anthology is Jessie Chambers, The Flash of the DC Multiverse's distaff universe Earth-11
