Tuesday, 27 October 2015: I am a big fan of Superman even more than Batman since I was a teenager in my favorite decade, the seventies {70's}, I have loved such comics as Superman, Spiderman and Aladdin. I am even rooting for Superman to win in the upcoming movie, Batman vs Superman. I still think the best actor with the best look to ever portray Superman was the late Christopher Reeve.
Anyhoo, with all the airing of previews of the pending "Supergirl" and the fact that I have like cute and funny actress, Calista Flockhart, ever since watching her on her TV series "Ally McBeal" by writer David Kelley, I was excited to make sure that I watch Supergirl because I am a big fan of the Superman series.
The series is Not bad, but it could be a lot better. I am all for opening up doors for African American, Latino and Asian actors to portray all roles, but Mehcad Brooks does Not fit the role of Jimmy. The old saying of "if it's not broke, don't fix it". He is to old to play Jimmy. Jimmy should be a first year college student type. They could write a new role for Mecad to play.
They should stick to the original story line, where only her earth parents and maybe one other person knows (her earth sister) who Supergirl really is. She should Not be telling her co-workers and this special government agency that her earth sister works for her identify. If she is going to tell two co-workers, she just as well tell her boss and the entire office staff.
I like Calista (Mrs. Harrison Ford) as an actress, but it seems her or the writers are trying to make her character out to copycat the brilliant Meryl Streep role as the queen of mean from "Devil Wears Prada". Calista can't pull that off. Leave that type of role to brilliant actress, Meryl or Julia Roberts. The mean sarcastic boss does Not fit Calista at all.
