The kryptonite dispersal thing would have worked better if they had just said it made National City off limits. They could explain that they’re in a valley so the kryptonite wouldn’t blow away. Supergirl could have been cooling her heels in Nevada somewhere until J’onn brought her the containment suit and it would…

Originally in the comics it was an actual vulnerability. In the show, we know he can overcome it as he did to prove he wasn’t a White Martian. I agree that the simplest explanation is that he was in mid battle but it did come across as thoughtless.

The physics observation is on point and something generally ignored by comics. In the first season of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, a wannabe super type saved a woman from a burning building by jumping out an upper story window. He landed hard enough to shatter the pavement but he was only supporting her upper back and…

Yes. She revealed it last season, IIRC.

I thought this incarnation of J’onn was *afraid* of fire because of his experience during the Martian “holocaust” but not vulnerable to it. Didn’t he put his hand in fire back when the White Martian infiltrated the DEO? Sure, he had to prioritize--he couldn't worry about one house when the city was under siege--but the…

I think you’ve got it backwards. Kara handled things badly, even though her motives were correct. When Snapper fired her, she admitted her mistake. And she paid a price. The show was clear on that. Anissa hasn’t figured it out yet, and it has yet to come back and bite her. But, of course, it will.

The writers don't have a clue what's happening at CatCo, why would you? I just happened to remember James was no longer "Acting CEO" now that Lena bought it. What CatCo actually does is fairly fuzzy. It was originally a "media empire" that published a glossy magazine and owned at least one radio station. Now people…

We won’t see Allison Mack any time soon but what about Sam Jones III, Pete Ross?

My usual random thoughts:

Except James isn’t the CEO any more, Lena is. He’s more like a high ranking editor at this point.

I wonder if we’ll find out the containment suit was originally an anti-Kryptonian device Lena repurposed?

And if they hadn’t been callous toward him he wouldn’t have any motivation. Characters driven by the needs of the story instead of the other way around.

Pete's problem isn't aliens, it's progress. Buggy whip manufacturers didn't go out of business because of some "war on horses," they went out of business because cars were a better alternative. Basic capitalism.

No, #Shedoesn'tknow. Some folks might wish she knew but she doesn't.

J’onn ignoring the burning house was really jarring. I get that he was busy dealing with a Daxamite invasion but he could’ve said "Sorry I can't stay and help but I'm a little busy right now. The Fire Department should be here soon," or something. But, of course, if he had, there wouldn't be any motivation for…

Several of us complained about the lead-in-the-atmosphere gimmick two seasons ago, including me. IIRC, I worked out that it would take a couple of cubic miles of lead to create even a small concentration. Plus, the kryptonite atoms/molecules couldn’t travel faster than orbit velocity or they’d leave Earth. That means…

“Doesn’t Thunder get dizzy when she’s holding her breath?”

I’m not sure where they’re going with Anissa’s story but it can’t end well. What happens when mom and dad find out? When someone figures out where the Reverend’s charity came from? If she gets caught or captured?

Dunno if it’s intentional but diabetes and accompanying amputations, especially of feet, is more common than it should be among blacks.

Brainy and Nia would have interesting chemistry, him with logic and her with intuition.
