Been looking forward to this. It has potential and hopefully they'll have good success. I just hope they don't downplay Superman or refer to him in very vague terms.

Oh and Melissa Benoist is a cutie that you just can't help but crush on want to take home to mama.

I've seen the pilot about a month ago, a bit campy but reminded me of Lois and Clark back in the day. Solid pilot and yeah, Supergirl is cute as hell.

Didn't one of the show runners, or at least someone involved with the show say they were going to do exactly this? Because the show "isn't about Superman".

They never even say his name when referring to him

Hopefully momma hasn't seen the video of her getting plowed on the internet.

Told myself I would give it a chance. I don't have high expectations.

Keeping that lame arse Superman as far away from this show would be the best thing they could do.

No, because it could lead to a pretty an awkward conversation for two reasons.

1. Why am I bringing a chick to meet her that is dumb enough to allow that to get posted on the internet?

2. Why in the hell is my mom surfing The Fappening?

Yup. Every promo I've seen has been laughably bad. This has cheeseball trainwreck written all over it.

I would guess that it is a rights issue, I think in the pilot they only show some red boots or something, don't remember off the top of my head. they never say his name so it might be a rights issue.

If they do have the right then they may have to pay to use his name versus getting the super girl name cheap.

Yea, the promos last night on CBS were laughably bad. I was on the fence about picking this up for my rotation, but I'm solidly in the nah I'll pass camp.

Benoist should have stuck with shows like Glee.

I watched the pilot and the ways that they refer to Superman didn't stand out as "avoiding" anything. I'm pretty sure that they did say Superman at some point. If they didn't, they did it in a fashion that was so seamless that it didn't stand out as avoiding anything.

This isn't a Superman series, so don't hold your breath for him to show up.

It was a fun pilot. I'd especially recommend it to folks with kids. I'd think that young girls would love this series.
