Supergirl Season 2

[Dev7on]

OK, I would just like to say...

Thirty seconds at the end does NOT make a "crossover episode"!!!!!

Agree. That was very disappointing.

[Super Firebug]

Massive waste of an hour, for those of us watching just for the crossover.

[saipaman]

The point may have simply been to lure in new viewers.

Ding, ding, ding! We have a winner!

[Tenzhi]

That Winn subplot was awful.

[Mandu]

Well you can definitely tell they have moved to the CW.

Alex: I'm worried about something.  That means our relationship is all wrong so I quit.
Maggie: Fine with me.  Goodbye
Alex: I fixed that thing I was worried about so we're on again right?
Maggie: Yeah sure.  But this is your only chance until the next dozen times you are completely unreasonable and we break up.

Spoiler for Hidden:

Mxy loses something for me if you're going to have him be normal looking. Part of the charm is that he can look like anything he wants but still goes with a foot tall, bald and dressed like an organ grinder's monkey got a go go dancer job on the side.

[Tenzhi]

Seems like it would've been better timing to have next week's episode this week...

I'm just glad they used the traditional method of getting rid of him and a version I don't recall having seen in the comics.

[Tenzhi]

Yeah, I liked that, though it wasn't as good as the time Superman got him to skywrite his name three times backwards.

I loved Michael J Pollard's Mxy in the old Superboy show. Even dressed like him from the comics. That show did a lot of things right, better then Smallville IMO.

I don't recall watching Superboy, and yet, when I think of a live action Mxy the first thing I think of is Pollard.  Though in my head he is "that guy from that Star Trek episode".  If asked, I would've speculated that I was recalling Lois and Clark, but apparently that's just a futile attempt to forget Howie Mandel.

He played it good. And in his second appearance they had Richard Kiel (Jaws) play Mxy's bully from the 5th Dimension and he gets Superboy and Lana to help him trick the guy to say his name backwards to send him back.

His first appearance was in season 1 and that on DVD has a commentary for that episode. And John Haymes Newton says Pollard was hired because he could float on air by himself so they could save on special effects. LOL

Superboy was a great show. Like the Flash it had a lot of comic book villains and plots, retooled slightly for live action, Metallo, Kryptonite Kid, Bizarro, Yellow Peri and more.
 
And although it was sort of stretch on how they changed the actor - Sherman Howard was the best Lex Luthor IMO.

[MyriVerse]

Agreed about Superboy. Aaaand... Stacy Haiduk.

Anyway, it's really starting to bug me that they cannot write Kara as the alpha. Someone please kill Mon-El.

[Tenzhi]

Wow... nearly everyone got stupid for this episode.  The artificial dramatic tension created by the stupidity was awful.

[Golden Girl]

The opening pretty much confirmed that Kara must have a special DEO issued reinforced bed

Same. I was rooting for Mon-El the whole episode. I like Mon-El. Even though he's misunderstood and people don't take him seriously he does have a good point when things get odd.

[Golden Girl]

And he's got experience when it comes to covering up a shady past.

They had to up their game since legends isn't on this week. Law of conservation of stupidity.

[Tenzhi]

And he's got experience when it comes to covering up a shady past.

I just assumed he was hiding being the prince (who is, perhaps, also secretly a centaur) rather than anything particularly shady.
