You know that you mus be a super excited to watch a show, when you let not only two episodes accumulate on your DVR, but also two episodes from a companion series, and so far at least one from a third, before getting around to watching any of them.
Well, here we go, up, up and away.....
Oh, great, I get to see the last couple of minutes of Batwoman..... yay.....
Awe, the blonde girl wants to bond with her...sister... group activities are important to maintain family ties in adulthood. I'm sure this whole "ruling Gotham together" thing will be really good for their relationship.
Moving on.
Or not, because of course there's previews. "I know you don't want to be the city's next great hope...." What? Then why the fuck is she running around in the bat-suit?
I'm going to nope the hell out of this one.
Okay, for real this time, the episode has started - glossing over the trope of trying to set a kitschy vibe by playing a well known rock song under unusual circumstances, like a school bus careening out control - what is wrong with the pack of apparently unsupervised kids crossing the street without bothering to check for traffic; which would have allowed them to see a bus hurdling towards them? And when they do see the bus, they stop dead in their tracks like a dear in headlights.
But you know, we apparently need Lena to leer at Supergirl being fawned over by those whom she just saved and other passersby, presumably to remind us that she's mad for not coming out to her..... as Kara....
Did Lena cut the brakes on the bus? Please tell me she didn't cut the brakes on the bus.
Ah, it was a simulation - so Lena made the...artistic (?) choice of playing "We're Not Going to Take It" during her fantasy sequence?
And her AI offers to help her kill Supergirl. Don't trust her Lena, because next she's going to ask you to help her off her mom, Rosie the robot from the Jetsons; in a "Strangers on a Train"-esque murder pack, which never ends well.... I hear....
Let's not gloss over just how quickly either Lena or not-AI-Karen has jumped to murder. I mean, this seems like a pretty extreme response to finding out that Kara is Supergirl on Lena's part; especially since it's not like Kara went out of her way to hide it from one of the smartest people on the planet. Once again, if anyone should have been able to figure it out on their own, it should have been Lena; she has the intellect and the frequent association with both Supergirl and Kara, unlike the vast majority of society, for whom passing familiarity with one or the other would make it more plausible for them to overlook the glaringly obvious resemblance. And even if her not noticing can be excused, I can maybe understand being a little miffed, but Jesus tap-dancing Christ, she's leaped murder in a single bond.
Let's not downplay the AI's part in this either, because an artificial intelligence so quick to accept and offer to help plan a murder is like a half step away from the rise of Skynet.
But seriously, after all of the failed attempts by Lex to kill Superman, why should any reasonably intelligent person or piece of technology believe for a second that remotely think they'd be any more successful with Supergirl?
Oh, good, she's just using the simulations of murder to "get it out of her system" - I....guess that's better.
Yay, I was hoping Alex and.... I want to say Kelly (?), were still going to strong; it's not at all a living manifestation of Ambien...
Is it the smartest move on Superman's part to donate the pod he arrived in as a baby? I mean, for one thing, there's something odd about the general public know the exact specifics of how Superman arrived on earth. I suppose it's plausible, but it seems like it flirts with giving too much away. More importantly though, that's some super ass advanced tech relative to anything on earth to just be sitting around at a museum. A replica, maybe, but the actual pod?
Oh, and it can apparently be used to make a bomb, what with it using anti-matter for fuel....what the fuck Kal-El. Why would you give them a pod that still contained FUCKING ANTI-MATTER???
Who the hell designs an entirely white+glass office? The custodians must hate these people.
"CatCo isn't the end all of what we can offer each other...." Mmmm...
I mean...

I really hope the new editor is... I don't know, evil monster from hell that Supergirl has to toss into the sun in order to save the earth. That's not too harsh, is it?
What the fuck kind of business transaction would allow the employees to be locked into a new 3-year contract without the employee's consent? Don't get me wrong, I concede that it's probably not outside the realm of reality, along with the non-compete clause, but God damn, that's some bullshit.
Damn. I gotta admit, Kara's reveal to Lena was well done; she said all the right things, it had all of the right emotions - and they're going to fuck it up by continuing to have Lena hold this absurd grudge.....
I hear the words of Lena accepting Kara, but I don't believe it's sincere.
"How do you guys change so fast?"
I mean, yeah, I get how Kara and J'Onn change so quickly, but how did James?
Okay, so J'Onn gets pulled into the black hole that Midnight opened and Kara follows to retrieve him - that means that when they get back, it's like 100 years later; what with the time dilation related to close proximity to black holes? No? Alright then.
Come on guys, the greatest movie villain of all time is obviously Glinda the witch from the North in The Wizard of Oz. It's so obvious how she orchestrated the plot to murder two of her rival witches and depose the so-called "Wizard" in order to consolidate the power and rule Oz herself; using Dorothy as a patsy.
Oh my God, Lena has an ulterior motive! I can't believe it....
