Supergirl: Season 2 Discussion (2×18-2×22) — Episode 38

by

Supergirl’s second season has come to an end, and we discuss what worked and didn’t work for us in the final five episodes. Here’s the scoop: we really enjoyed “Ace Reporter” as well as the wonderfully different and complex older female characters who were around at the end of the season. Unfortunately, we cannot get behind the writers’ attempt to transform Mon-El into a hero, and we are disappointed that so many characters played by people of color seemed to be shuffled to the side to make room for his storyline.

Supergirl: Let’s Talk Lena! (2×22 “Nevertheless She Persisted”) — Episode 37

by

Lena Luthor knows how to deal with those pesky Daxamites. For that, and many other reasons, we love her. Kris and Stephanie share their appreciation for Lena’s engineering accomplishments in the Supergirl Season 2 finale, as well as offer some suggestions to Kara regarding with whom and how she might spend her time now. This podcast episode contains ludicrous luxuriating in Lena Luthor and her (non-canonical) love of Kara. More typical episode discussion is still to come.

Supergirl: Let’s Talk Lena! (2×21 “Resist”) — Episode 36

by

Kris and Stephanie share their love for Lena being so over those silly Daxamites in Supergirl 2×21 “Resist.” But we couldn’t resist talking about Daxamite fashion, which led to quite a bit of hysterical laughter. We’re very sorry. This podcast episode contains ludicrous luxuriating in Lena Luthor and her (non-canonical) love of Kara. More typical episode discussion is still to come.
