Eh, they have to know what Supergirl is by now. I imagine they're as curious as the rest of us to see what this might due as a stunt?

Every time I read "National City" it makes my blood a little angry. National City? Really?

Eh, the romantic subplot seemed tacked on, and they really could have skipped some of the fights.

Eh, I'd say it depends on the sin. If you die for, say, someone eating an entire jar of peanut butter in one sitting, that's not much of a sacrifice.

It's different so it's bad! This format isn't canon at all.

I bet someone who'd been saving up his snark all week and was ready to pounce said that.

Rockmond Dunbar? Now that's a name you can set a clock to.

Ah… I was hoping is was "dubstep".

Good for you; every show needs devoted fans.

They should call it The Walking In Circles Dead. Haha, I just slay me.

Hopefully there's a Chokey Chicken kiosk.

When I first heard it, I heard it as "Steaky", as in beefsteak. I find it's somehow more disturbing that way - how do get a nickname like "Steaky"?

This seems to be the only animated show they cover here that consistently gets poor grades. Eh, maybe Nu Simpsons, but that's a special case. So, probably other stuff you should be watching first, assuming you record and not just watch as broadcast.

Sometimes when all the little terrible things come together just right, the result winds up being so much worse than the sum of its parts. It's like being 20 minutes in and trying to figure out of the movie is actually satire (or porn) and realizing the movie doesn't know either.

So now that the end-times haven't happened (though we have a few months I guess), do people like that just say "well, he could've been the Antichrist - he just didn't try hard enough"?

Supergirl feels like an experiment, putting on a FX-heavy genre show on CBS. Gotham on Fox is one thing; it's Fox. But CBS is the old battleship, skewing old and if not conservative exactly, towards the pre-Peak TV set. Multi-cams, procedurals, low serialization. So it gets a demo CW would love, but overall views are…

To your credit, it really seemed like a stupid premise.

Chicago Talent Competition.

Oddly, I hated it. It was a big scene in MASH, and the punch that no, some people just don't get to go home was the point. The comedy bit was just "haha, this is TV, return to your untroubled, incurious lives". I know it wasn't "canon"- not that I knew what that was at the time, but it felt cheap and just a tiny bit…

Pitch, Tuesdays, 9 pm FOX. It will last two airings.
