Gold K is also tricky because it takes away a Kryptonian's powers permanently and pretty much the only way to find that out is to be exposed to it (unless the DEO is able to "analyze" it), which means someone gets to be not super any more. It could be a way to deal with whatever threat is in the new pod though so I…

Maybe Tyler Hoechlin's eyes are green? Honestly, I have no idea.

Yeah, I didn't really think it would be Max but Rick Malvern kinda came from out of left field.

Thanks. They're just so absolutely cute together I can hardly stand it. I'm guessing one potential issue might be social status. I mean, tech nerd or not, she's an heiress and the CEO of a humongous company and he's basically a grunt who works for the government. I know if I were Winn I wouldn't think I had a shot.

It sure looks that way. But she didn't answer either, not that we don't have a good idea what her answer will be.

Supergirl is at her best when she's talking to people. Her line, "Leslie, let me help you," to Livewire in season 1's Thanksgiving episode was classic Supergirl. It's only after talking fails that she should start throwing punches. As usual, I blame bad writing.

I read somewhere that after the original reveal that the President was an alien Carter asked if they could put her in full on alien makeup so that's part of it. I don't know whose idea her being an alien was originally. I get that people who know and work with aliens might not necessarily freak out, especially…

The Brainiac in season 1 was Brainiac 8.

She found the inner strength and resolve to prevail. That's what heroes do. It's part of drama.

I have no idea who Lyra is supposed to appeal to (horny guys?) but I'd love it if she were gone next season. If they want to pair Winn up with anybody, make her Lena; they have great finish-each-other's-sentences moments when they're in geek heaven together working on some new gizmo.

I can't imagine Calista Flockhart returning full time next season so they'll need to walk that one back somehow.

Not to mention that Winn made her suit except for the cape, which means it's a notch above cosplay but she never has a run in her tights, boots that are worn out and smoldering from stopping a runaway train, etc.

Wow. I can't believe I forgot all about her visit-your-super-friend gizmo until just now. That would have worked even better.

Except the Constitution doesn't say anything about the head of the DEO or anyone else, just the President and VP. Her successor could make an exception for J'onn but nobody can make an exception for her.

Thanks, I made the same assumption. She didn't hesitate to use heat vision against Superman.

You're assuming the rules allowed something beyond hand to hand combat. That may not have been so. She used heat vision against Superman so it stands to reason she didn't use it against Rhea for a reason.

Mon-El was affected by "lead radiation" in spite of lead not being radioactive an any meaningful way. Beyond that, any exposure was permanent and resulted in death.

Earth's troposphere is 2 billion cubic miles of air. It would take a lot of lead (a couple of cubic miles) to bring the concentration into the 1 part per billion range. In real life, it would take weeks to disperse and it might not reach the southern hemisphere at all. That part was just terribly sad from a logic…

It's possible the rules specified hand to hand combat. As for not leveling the city, the evil queen was defeated and all the average foot-soldier wants to do is survive to walk away. Rhea was the spiteful one. We saw from Lar Gand that not all Daxamites thought the same way as Rhea.

I agree that we need to see more of Kara's life as Kara. Maybe even show her actually being a reporter. That part of her life is where her friendship with Lena can shine.
