Review of Supergirl

love the girl

I love Melissa Benoist. Too bad the storyline of Supergirl is derivative (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. anyone?) and boring (any chick-flick you ever saw).

The writing is weak -- the characters are cardboard stereotypes (especially Calista Flockhart's) and the dialogue is banal.

Why is Jimmy (er, James) Olsen even in this show? And David Harewood is basically reprising his role from Homeland.

I would rather see truth, justice, and the American way at the center of this show (enough with alien invaders already) and a lot less romantic claptrap -- Lois and Clark pushed that envelope as far as it can reasonably go.

I watch to see the girl. I wonder how long that will be enough.
