That footage was cringeworthy.

Didn't even know who Melissa Benoist was, so I did a Google search.

My adult filter is off, so I had a bit of a shock at the pictures that showed up.

 

Yeah her past is actually porn well adult photoshoots lol

She went from Adult stuff... to Glee? That must have been one hell of a reality change!

No plan for the UK showing of this? :(

Got to admit, I'm mainly interested because she is pretty damn cute  :blush:

Yea, not sure about this.  Especially after watching Daredevil on Netflix.  Seems like Super Girl is a poorly acted half assed attempted at making something good.  Yea, I am just going off the trailer but I would be surprised if this goes to season 2 and really surprised if there is a 3rd season.  And the fact that Supergirl reveals herself to the public by saving people on a plane...that was done in Superman and Superman 4.  Booooring.

NO. Private pics of her and her fiancee, along with dozens of other public figures and celebrities, were stolen during the iCloud hack and put up on 4Chan last year.

Or don't take nude pics?  Let alone pics of you having sex to, I don't understand people today.  The whole selfie craze is one thing, but taking pics of yourself nude to?  How vain can we get?

Yeah, but looking at the amount of different individuals that were "hacked" during the fappening, I can't believe it was as simple as that. I'm sure there was some security compromise in Apple's systems that they weren't ready to divulge.

 

OT, I think this looks cheesy as heck and I doubt it'll be interesting enough for me to continue watching this after the pilot.

You should re-read what I said, I never said it'd crossover with the MoS movie universe, I'd said they'd be able to use the character, supergirl, in a future MoS movie, there's a difference.   This supergirl tv series could crossover with Arrow and Flash though, which is what I expect more.   Having "supergirl" on CBS and not the CW would just be because WB/DC wants to use the character in a movie, putting it on CW means you tie it to the other two shows at the hip, I'm guessing they don't want to, even though it's the same companies behind all 3 tv shows so they could do a crossover between the three or not.

 

"Though, I honestly don't get why it'd be hard to just link the movies with the tv series now, supergirl could be the show that does it actually."

That's just a hypothetical on my part, no one expects this to happen.  People have thought about Arrow and Flash linking to the new movie universe but WB doesn't want to do it.   And you can link the two without doing a full on crossover, just a comment about "supergirl" in one of the movies would do it.

And I don't expect my comments to be taken seriously by anyone, but they fit the context -- even hypothetically, the tone between the two is jarringly different. Then again, Marvel has Ant-Man in the same universe as the Daredevil...

 

And again, the show looks way too campy for me. If that's your thing, knock yourself out.

I don't know if it'll be good or not, I don't take trailers and such to mean much personally.  I just find it interesting that they put this on CBS and not on the CW with the others.

I'll give it a shot but I'm doubtful. Also kind of curious how they'd handle it being supposedly in the Arrow/Flash universe when the Supergirl promo seems to imply Superman having been in the public eye for a noticeable amount of time, but characters from the other two shows see Barry as the world's introduction to superpowers.

I just read an article about them possibly setting up the idea of multiple universes in Flash next season... so with that in mind, it would be pretty easy to do crossovers if they wanted.

It does look awfully cheesy. I think the success of Arrow/The Flash has been the dark gritty aspect. Yes, I know that The Flash has been a lot more light hearted, but since the reveal of the true identity of the Reverse Flash at Christmas, it's been handling a very fine balance between light hearted-ness and dark aspects. This along with every other Superman related TV Show/Movie in the past just looks too cheesy. I guess Superman/girl just entails that cheesy airy fairy storyline. Whether it does enough to pull in the viewers is gonna be the hard part for the script writers!
