Is Jimmy the love interest? Please say yes, the salt will flow.

 

[FunkyPajamas]

That seemed like a sex and the city episode with some superhero bits thrown in. Expectations adjusted.

Did we watch the same trailer? Sex and the City?

Is Jimmy the love interest? Please say yes, the salt will flow.

But I want Jimmy to be Supes' love interest!

 

[Kouichi]

Looks like a ton of fun! I love how excited she is to be Supergirl. Reminds me a lot of Flash. I expect this will be just as good as those given the team.

 

[entremet]

The tone is very sitcomy.

Kinda unexpected honestly.

 

[Scientist Supreme!]

It's on a line for me. One side looking charming and fun while the other is hokey and soapoperaish. Let's hope it ends up the former.

 

[NimbusD]

They said Kal-el 10 seconds into this trailer ffs.

I meant 'dont ever' say kal-el. As in, once you know who he is, he'll only ever be referred to as 'my cousin' as they do 20 times in the trailer. Calm down.

 

[Napoleonthechimp]

very hokey but promising. at least she's flying

also its nice to see Chyler Leigh get some work. Not Another Teen Movie was a loonnnggg time ago

You know she was in Grey's Anatomy for a while, right?

 

[MLCodest]

The potential for Green Arrow, Black Canary, Speedy, Arsenal, Flash, Firestorm, Vibe, Atom, Rip Hunter, Supergirl and more on the same show is absolutely incredible.

Spoiler

Add the numerous Hal Jordan teases and I'd die.

 

[MattyG]

This actually looks great. I didn't realize Kara was played by the girl from Whiplash.

 

[CREMSteve]

That looks... kinda fun!

 

[Marty Chinn]

I wasn't feeling this when they had the first promo picture of her in the costume, but this trailer sold me. It looks fun, light hearted, and may even have some good humor to it. She's very charming and looks way better in the outfit in the video than the promo pic.

 

[maquiladora]

Holy fucking shit that looks like garbage.

 

[VeryGooster]

She was on Grey's Anatomy for a lot of that show's run.

Show looks as fun as Flash has been.

 

[Clipjoint]

I enjoyed that quite a bit. Melissa Benoist just oozes charisma and likability. Will watch.

 

[JustinBB7]

Not sure about this yet. Looks pretty cheesy.

Movies, no. Arrow/Flash, probably.

I thought it would be connected, but no way Oliver/Barry would not know about Superman though. Guess we'll see..

 

[Lazyslob]

this looks awful. the tone of like we can do it! yea! bugs me

 

[Servbot24]

Looks alright. Definitely aimed towards female tweens, but hey... I watched Glee, I can probably watch this.

 

[NimbusD]

It is Arrowverse. Confirmed recently

Hopefully the movies wind up bombing and they just bring superman to TV. I'd like that much better.

 

[ryan299]

Doesn't mentioning Superman renege the whole no supes/bats on tv? Or was that specific to Arrowverse. Pretty sure a crossover is going to happen here.

Multiverse. It's happening.

 

[Aiii]

I have a feeling I'm going to love this show to death.

 

[Dysun]

Looks good, hopefully they don't go overboard with the cheese and find the right balance ala Flash.

CGI looks pretty bad for a major network though, I'll assume its improved by the time it airs

 

[Toki767]

I still think the costume should be brighter, but it seems like a cool start.

 

[FunkyPajamas]

I'm sorry, but did you guys talking about "rom-com" and "sex and the city" miss the plane, the truck, the fights, etc? Or do you think The Flash is a romantic comedy because there are some laughs and people kiss?

Or did I just fall for some good old trolling?

 

[Alavard]

That seemed like a sex and the city episode with some superhero bits thrown in. Expectations adjusted.

I can see how you'd think that, what with all the mentions of sex... Oh wait.

 

[Slowdive]

Looks good.

 

[Carbonox]

Looked way better than I expected. Looks more clean, fresh and ultimately not cheap like Arrow.

Will definitely watch.

 

[foxtrot3d]

Holy fucking shit that looks like garbage.

I'm gonna reserve judgment because I just went back and rewatched The Flash reveal trailer and while I think it is better than this trailer it still has some cringe parts due to the way its cut and the ever changing music score. Hopefully this show will be just as good as Flash and we're just seeing "shit" because the trailer is cut stupidly.

 

[Spiritreaver]

I think the only thing I would've preferred is if Superman didn't exist at all or was not known at least. A universe where she's the leading hero would be rather cool actually.

But ehhhh, I'm sure there's a million reasons why they wouldn't do this but oh well.

 

[BluenoseGames]

I enjoyed that quite a bit. Melissa Benoist just oozes charisma and likability. Will watch.

Exactly this. I normally would like something this cheesy but its just Melissa's charm and like you said likability.

 

[Messypandas]

The Flash trailers never looked good to me until I was invested in the show, then it elevated to some of the best entertainment on TV currently. I'm giving this a chance at least.

 

[SillyEskimo]

It's definately not for me, but my 6&8yr old daughters will likely enjoy it. It looks right up their alley.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Looking good! Definitely interested.

 

[MHWilliams]

Is Jimmy the love interest? Please say yes, the salt will flow.

Yes, he was cast as the primary love interest. The other kid is Toyman.

 

[border]

Looks fun, though I have my doubts that this will be able to sustain itself as a weekly TV series with a tiny budget and interesting stories.

I love the shots of her jumping, trying to fly and not quite pulling it off.

Despite the cheap special effects, that part where she stops the 16-wheeler truck also looks really awesome.

Are they allowed to say "Superman"? It seems like they were weirdly tipetoeing around it.

 

[MisterAnderson]

The first half of the trailer is literally the SNL Black Widow skit.

LOL. Spot on.

 

[spidye]

I swear the music and tone makes it seem like one of those parody videos about network shows.

exactly my thoughts

just needed Rob Schneider in there

looked awful


compare that turd with daredevil

 

[-Plasma Reus-]

Some of this stuff looks really well done.
It's nice to see some colours as well.

 

[infi]

Looks good.

Glad that the love interest, best friend and sister seem to know her identity so no keeping secrets for long.

I've got no idea what the comic book Supergirl is like but this one seems charming.

 

[Empty]

it looks kinda bad but devil wears prada meets superhero stuff is a mildly interesting combination of elements

 

[BluenoseGames]

The Flash trailers never looked good to me until I was invested in the show, then it elevated to some of the best entertainment on TV currently. I'm giving this a chance at least.

Exactly you people should give this a chance and same with The Flash.

 

[FunkyPajamas]

I can see how you'd think that, what with all the mentions of sex... Oh wait.

There was also a City, so he's got a point.

And somebody works for a magazine or a TV news show or something.

Also the minute I saw Calista Flockhart I expected Bon Jovi to show up too.

 

[charsace]

I liked it. Only thing I didn't like was the girl power song part of the trailer because it came off too cheesy.

 

[Shaanyboi]

God, I hope they cross over with Flash. Her and Barry would be a lot of fun together. Also my girlfriend really wants to see her and Felicity hang out.

 

[Slayven]

Yes, he was cast as the primary love interest. The other kid is Toyman.

Twitter will be on fire with teh first kiss. Diet Racist will flow


Friendzoned so hard he becoems a supervillain? Goddamn

 

[vagabondarts]

I'll watch it. Looks fun!

 

[RangerX]

I can see how you'd think that, what with all the mentions of sex... Oh wait.

Admittedly I typed that around 3 mins in and it seemed a bit vacuous and shallow like SiTC. Last 3 weren't too bad. Seems fun and I like the main actress.

 

[BodiesWithoutOrgans]

Supergirl will get on great with Flash

Arrow not so much

 

[Toki767]

Looks good.

Glad that the love interest, best friend and sister seem to know her identity so no keeping secrets for long.

I've got no idea what the comic book Supergirl is like but this one seems charming.

This is the one that annoys me most about all the CW superhero shoes. Not sure if it's some CW mandate at this point lol

 

[Messypandas]

I want to see her melt Ollies bar as hes ascending the salmon.

 

[Ganzlinger]

2cheesy4me

Seriously.

But I hope it turns out to be good. Her "normal girl" life seems fun.

Oh, they explaining why Clark couldn't come talk to her was dumb.. but it can't be helped lol
