CBS/CW's Supergirl Series

Superman is actually showing up as in an actual character and not a background cameo? Color me surprised, I never thought they would do that for two reasons:

1. Superman is in the movies, and they probably didn't want him conflicting with the show. I know they're casting a new actor, but I never expected it.

2. Superman appearing automatically makes Supergirl into the sidekick role, when its her show. I remember when Teen Titans 2003 was airing (the original show), they said the reason Batman never showed up is it would automatically make Robin into a sidekick instead of the leader, and they didn't want that. Superman won't be in every episode obviously, but the few he's in he'll likely overshadow Kara.

Sounds very interesting. Also was that rumor of Superboy appearing ever confirmed?
