Just caught up on this season. My two cents on the season thus far...
-Jimmy Olsen as Guardian is as bad as I'd feared it'd be, but for what it is I am enjoying the Win & James dynamic.
-Tyler Hoechlin was alright as Superman. I liked his Clark and his Superman wasn't bad but something about his performance felt a little off. Still, I liked how he's been written so far, so, that's a plus.
-I haven't caught any Flash, Arrow, or LoT, but at least on Supergirl I appreciate they've learned to not crowd up the first half of the season teasing the annual team up.
-I miss Cat Grant.
-Alex coming out as a lesbian seems a little rushed and out of nowhere but for what it's worth, it's the most interest I've had in that character. Maggie is a decent addition to the cast as well.
-I like Mon-El so far.
-Back to Jimmy, seriously, why the hell would Cat leave a photographer in charge of her media empire? A photographer she was never especially close to at that. And now that he's been giving this, he feels the only way he can help is dressing up and playing vigilante? Ugh. I hope they resolve and write this out asap.
-Impressed that the special FX haven't suffered from the switch to CW. I expected to see it less in the CG and fight scenes and more in the location shoots(amount of extras, set dec, etc...) but nothing has stood out as cheap.
-Miss Tessmaucher hasn't added anything to the show.
Overall, I'm liking this season. The move to CW hasn't hurt it at all, though I suspect the big reason for that being it always felt like a CW show to begin with.
