first trailer!

 

[detectiveconan16]

Nice choice, though she'll have to wear a wig as Supergirl, though it's odd since it's the other way around in the comics.

At first I was going to say her smile is a little strange, but then I realized it's much better than resting bitch-face.  If she's any good, I have high hopes.

[ITDEFX]

what are the chances that the same thing that happened to the NBC WW pilot happens to this series, where it's filmed, screened and canned before the public sees it?

[detectiveconan16]

Hey, CBS let that show about a guy with a computer in his brain air several episodes.

NBC let a show like that air for four seasons! #bringbackchuck

I stand corrected! (As I own the box set, I should've known!)

[detectiveconan16]

Edit: Oops wrong topic.

 

Jimmy Olsen is played by Mechad Brooks, not my first choice to play Superman's Pal. But he'll be too cool for the role, and will probably be Supergirl's love interest. Eh...

[Kay_Faraday]

I was rooting for claire holt =(

[ITDEFX]

Honestly I wouldn't mind a black/hispanic or red headed super girl. 

[detectiveconan16]

Me too especially considering we'll NEVER see Superman in the tv universe, but I guess the power of executive boners rules the land.

 

Disappointed with Jimmy Olsen, considering they made him soo un-Jimmy. An Alpha Male?!

[ITDEFX]

They should do it....forget the blonde hair/blue eyes.....give us something unique! 

[ITDEFX]

You know I was just thinking about this on the way to work this morning...

I think it would have been awesome if they played Kara's foster parents.

[detectiveconan16]

Why not? Dean Cain needs the work, outside of hosting alien conspiracy or "funny" commercial compilations.

[ITDEFX]

There ya go folks

 

So they aren't taking the slow smallville approach ... she is actually in her suit from the start...hmmm...not too shabby.

 

[detectiveconan16]

I guess Geoff Johns realized nobody wants to watch another freakin' origin story. I like the costume, except for the fabric and colors. The costume designer for the other two shows made a terrific Arrow costume, but I don't like the dark colors of the Flash costume, when Barry is supposed to contrast the dour Oliver. We don't know how Supergirl will be filmed, but I'm guessing it won't dark and gritty.  What do movie and tv show producers have against solid bright colors? You'd think a positive superhero would wear inspiring colors.

 

I guess people are going to gripe about the not-so-sexiness of this costume. Like why are her legs not showing, or why is she wearing a skirt, and where's the cleavage or crap like that. Oh to moan that it's not as fappable as Lynda Carter's costume.

[dohdough]

I think the suit look great! Love the red piping.

[ITDEFX]

I hope this turns out good.... we need a Batgirl series next. 

[ITDEFX]

neat

[detectiveconan16]

Wut? She's doing it Lynda Carter style? I thought there were wigs involved, like in the comics.

[ITDEFX]

Yes, because in the DC universe all it takes is for a Kryptonian to wear glasses and the entire modern civilization is clueless to even suspect that she is a superhero.

[TheN8torious]

Maybe she's just trying to get Freddie Prinze Jr's attention.

 

 

[detectiveconan16]

Oh noes. A Freddie Prinze Jr. equivalent to play Superman would make a lot of sense.

[detectiveconan16]

Looks like I'm going to skip to episode 2 of Supergirl. I think Benoist would make a great Supergirl, but it's only held down by the fact that the writers think her story is going to be close to a romcom, even if it can be everything Man of Steel should've been. It looks like it's going to take place in an alternate universe, unless somehow they decide to make this show take place in the future (doubtful as even Gotham has the gall to say it's 2015).

[ITDEFX]

That was a pretty good first trailer.  It has potential to be a good tv series.....  How long will CBS keep it before they can it?? Who knows... I am still bitter with them over the cancellation of Jericho.

[ITDEFX]

oh yeah..nice legs.

[RedvsBlue]

Reddit was absolutely blasting the show last night but I think it looks good. Yeah, it has a pretty blatant romcom tone but I like that it's different than almost every other "gritty/dark/edgy" take on superheroes these days and that's a little refreshing. I haven't watched Arrow or Flash at all but this one has my attention that might at least give it a shot.

[dohdough]

I think the show looks great!
