Sorry, but no.
He got the most screentime in Season 1 by virtue of being the romantic lead.
What series were you watching? James was also the moral center who helped shape Supergirl as a hero, as she was on wobbly legs (heroically speaking) throughout most of the first season.
As for other characters "that mean little"... you do know other people watch this show and actually like all those other characters as well, right?
You do know that others have been actively criticizing the attention paid to Alex and minor characters, right?
So sorry you're not getting enough James in your life, but as others have pointed out, this isn't a Kara & James show, it has an ensemble cast,[/quote]
No, its the Alex and Her Costumed Friend Show.
Your complaints might carry more weight if you weren't also in the same breath arguing to completely axe the most mature, believable, honest and realistic romance there is in the Arrowverse...
...and which relationship would that be, since the most mature relationship was axed--at the start of Supergirl season 2.
