(No one wants to be Firefly.)
Is 13 years "too soon"?(almost getting tears watching poor Inara)
I liked last night's episode quite a bit.I thought the series got off to a so-so start, but it's improving. I just wished they'd pace things out better. The early plot-line involving the aunt feels premature to me; more like it should be a late season development leading to a cliff-hanger finale. Maybe they felt rushed to get a lot into a half-season due to being unsure whether they'd get to make more or not.
Don't really care for Zodette, though.
I was expecting Hank Henshaw to turn out to be some sort of cyborg. But instead there was an interesting twist. Don't really care for Zodette, though.
It looks like that the only way for Kara to persuade Cat that she's not Supergirl would be to find a shapeshifter who could take on her form and be in the same place as her at the same time.
I enjoyed the episode, and can let a few less-believable bits to slide by.
Spoiler for Hidden: Wait, the part where the glasses and ponytail weren't an effective disguise anymore was a 'less-believable bit'?I kinda thought her leaving Cat to deal with the emergency (not to mention the reluctance to take off the glasses) ruled out any way of putting the secret ID back in the bag. Presumably they'll just let Cat keep the secret, either out of the goodness of her heart or because Kara has the goods on Cat's son and Cat's view of the world wouldn't let her rule out a retaliatory reveal.
On the subject of shapeshifting Martians, some White Martians will apparently be making an appearance in episode 11.
I just want to say something about Superman and Supergirl's secret identity. What bothers me the most is that they are the only superheroes who doesn't wear a mask and disguise their voices like everybody else in the DC Universe. How the hell nobody doesn't recognize who Clark Kent/Kal El and Kara Zor'el is. All they're wearing is glasses and a ponytail for Supergirl and then all of a sudden when it's time for Superman or Supergirl to save the day they take off their glasses and clothes and fly off!!! Like WTF?? It's like when I wear glasses everybody knows who I am but, when I take my glasses off people think I'm a different person. It's still me but, without the glasses. <--- That last example is my real life experience I do wear glasses. I can't believe Cat is the ONLY person who figure out who Kara is. It's weird...............
