Just drove by them shooting the crossover. Only saw Superman and Supergirl but Superman was wearing his red and blue, so, take that for whatever you will.

I'll take it as confirmation that Superman is in the crossover! But we already... oh.

Where are they shooting it? Vancouver?

Vancouver, yeah. I'm so behind on all these shows by at least a season. All the news i've read about Superman appearing all mentioned he was wearing his black suit so I assumed this was "news" to someone out there who cares

I liked this show for a while - fun stories, truly gorgeous lead, actually good special effects for T.V. And then more and more the hostile extreme liberal content kept rearing it's head.

The negativity and insult woven into Supergirl peaked for me during one episode when a character delivers a line that says something like "I don't want to spend my life working for angry old white men". I couldn't believe that not only was that sentence used to define the current zeitgeist, but that they said it as if it was a progressive thing to say and believe.

I never watched that show again.

Wonder when the Sexual Assault episode will happen. you know those Liberal SJW Supergirl Writers wanna do that. Maybe that is why Lex is coming on. Lex will be accosted for sexual assault or something

Yeah the agenda-driven nature of the show gets real grating. It's why I stopped watching, too. I also can't stand how they brought in Superman just to put over Supergirl as the stronger of the two.

Superman: Silver kryptonite. That's a new one. The whole time, I thought I was fighting Zod. It didn't weaken me at all.
Supergirl: It might have.
Superman: No. No, I was at full strength and you beat me.

Superman: You okay?
Supergirl: Of course. I did the right thing.
Superman: I... think it goes far beyond the right thing. I couldn't have done it, Kara.
Supergirl: You don't have to try to make me feel better.
Superman: I'm not. I'm humbled by you. I'd like to think that if it came down to a choice between Lois and the world, but... I don't think I could. You are so much stronger than me. Stronger than I ever will be.

Supergirl: I just have to beat her. And I will.
Mon-El: Why not Superman? Isn't this his fight, too?
Superman: [entering] It's everyone's fight. But Kara just defeated me. She's the champion of Earth.

Yeah. It's bad. It's a bad show.

Like, whether it's women-over-men in general or Supergirl > Superman specifically, the people writing this show simply don't understand that you can add to something without taking away from or diminishing something else.

Like, they spend a decent amount on SFX, clearly, but... it's terribly written.

Holy crap. Man, am I glad I tapped out when I did way back when. I think I take the prize for longevity on the show... I made it to, maybe, Episode 4 of Season 2.

She's hot, though.

Anyone else had been cast, I don't think they'd have HAD a Season Two. What little good the show has, is all her.

You're not wrong. Although Martian Manhunter was pretty great, too.

Yeah, but Martian Manhunter's beaver wasn't shotgunned all over the web a while back.

The best part of Fallout was Sexyoff 2018 between Lena (Katie McGrath) and Mercy (Rhona Mitra). I'm not really into the whole aliens political story going on this season.

While Man of Steel may not have necessarily been the most entertaining episode that this series has featured, I think it might have been the most interesting episode. It definitely makes the whole alien political story going on this season make a lot more sense.

lol... so Lex Luthor has a crippling disease and this whole Lex Luthor story is about him going to his perfectly healthy sister, Lena Luthor, for help.

https://www.comicbookmovie.com/tv/dc...luthor-a167011

So basically they've brought in Lex Luthor just to make him job to Lena Luthor and get her over. Sort of like they did with Superman to job to Supergirl to get her over.

Based on all the superhero shows I've seen, my gut feeling is that Lex eventually takes over Lena Luthor's mind/body so that it's still the female actor but now trying to act like it's really Lex Luthor's personality in control.

Could be dead-on with that.
