Starkiller focused eps are still the best, but yeah tonight's was much better than the average Supergirl stuff. Thanks Kevin!
That look Kara gave Nia when she said she didn't know who Lois Lane was is hilarious.
The only thing I would've changed was to have
Supergirl quit the DEO instead of her being fired.
This too! Just seeing all the heroes down all over the place was hype!
Of course they made Agent Liberty a martyr. Kill him or arrest him, just make sure you do it quietly. Even then you'd still have people take up the mantle in his place.
Supergirl continues her naive crusade.

Hey, quick question. I know the actress playing Nia is transgender, but didn't Nia explicitly tell James that she was earlier this season? And if that's the case, then why did she tell Kara she has a genetic condition that only affects females of her race? Surely there's no way retconned her character being transgender, so I'm guessing that was an oversight?
Still need to watch last night episode but I did see the new teaser. Interesting mix of character who they had in there. I think that was a version of the Smallville Green Arrow unless they want to outright say Earth 90 is the Smallville Earth cause I can see them doing that. We never did see Barry on that Earth just Bart and there was the entire JS that existed as the original guard with Clark and his generation being the new heroes. They could easily fit others in the middle there. Anyway.
I really like that they snuck in the 90s Flash theme along with him running toward the screen.

Manchester Black is apparently on Era or on Twitter a lot

Let me put it this way I doubt it's an oversight and they know
Yeah I DEMAND that scene on gif ... that move was pretty swag
Kara didn't need someone to make a speech and say Fly Kara Fly
Suck it Barry
Elseworlds OT is live.
PS. is this season actually good, or still just "good for Supergirl" because I'm like 5 episodes behind, but I'm also thirsty for Sam Witwer

Witwer is hard carrying this storyline. Manchester Black is cool. I mean, it's been better than The Flash this year; if that scores you any points.
The President is a piece of alt-right shit who insists domestic terrorists are very fine people and cares more about what people are saying about him than providing any moral leadership, probably as projection over his insecurities about not being legitimately elected to his office.
So, Supergirl is getting more realistic.

Really great episode. All of the stuff with Nia was good, and I love where this season is going. I'm glad that Supergirl is finally out of the DEO; it's been kind of a black mark to have her associated so heavily with a black ops government organization.
This season has been pretty killer so far.

In his defense an alien secretly became president #whereisthebirthcertificate aliens can't be president ya gotta be born on earth.
Oh of course the new president would go this route, that certainly wasn't an obvious turn the moment President Wonder Woman resigned and put an old white dude in her place that made no sense as someone who would've been her running mate.
Probably the "sensible pragmatist" needed to convince the centrists that she wouldn't be too radical so that they would vote for her.
Well, they'll get a war with Supergirl one way or the other - Soviet Supergirl is still out there for unexplained purposes.
Came here to post this... They've mentioned numerous times that she was transgender... And now she's an alien with powers that only females of their species get...huh?
her being transgender doesn't have to be negated
it might have been a process done on her native Naltor, rather than from an Earth perspective, which might be more complex, ie, genetic change, allowing Nia to eventually develop the same abilities. it appears that she is a late to getting a handle on her abilities

This is most likely it. They didn't just forget that the first live action trans super hero is trans, people.
That's what I said lol
I don't know the exact science but it's a comic show with made up alien powers
If the President really wants to know who Supergirl really is he should probably get someone to run a facial recongnition scan on her. I'm sure someone in the US government could get it done for him.
If only there was some organization that he had complete control over that regularly does facial scans on aliens.

I feel like if shes alone with anyone who knows her identity then they refer to her as Kara and if others are around it's Supergirl. I know I've heard both at the DEO.
I always find it funny how carefree heroes with secret identities can be about using their real names in a public setting in movies and shows and comics. They should probably never do it in a public setting no matter how sure they are that no one's around who doesn't know their secret identity (aside from maybe the rare super emotional scene).
I'm definitely going to chalk it up to that for now. I just wish they'd been more clear or explicit.
I'm fairly sure they've showed her having a locker at the DEO that had her actual name on it, and there can't be anybody there that hasn't heard her and Alex talking about being sisters...
Yeah these CW (and some other) superheroes keeping their secret identities in real life would be basically impossible. They change into costumes in elevators (which would have cameras in them) and then burst out the ceiling, freely discuss their superhero issues in civilian form with a dozen or so people in earshot, pretty sure they carry their cell phones with them which could be tracked, take off their masks in public because the villain just disappeared around the corner and they have to properly convey their reaction to the camera every second week or so etc.
They are pretty dumb, and that doesn't really give them an excuse, but the last couple episodes of all the Arrowverse shows have been a lot of fun for me, so I guess I am happy to forgive it at the moment.

Supergirl until now has just been so incredibly bland and forgetful for me that I couldn't even tell you who any of the previous big bads are and I didn't even care for any good guys beyond J'onn.
This time though... Agent Liberty is actually legit (although I do take issue with how easily the public and the president glosses over the whole terrorist aspect this ep), he's an actually developed character with a story I'm for once paying attention to. In general characters are everything for me, so the new cast (including Brainy now as a main member) has done wonders for my enjoyment of the show.
I died right here, as Manchester has completely cemented himself as my fav CW character now. I can't express how insane it is to me that I can say that about someone coming from Supergirl.
The show still has problems obviously and it's not great but man I agree did the additions of Manchester Black and Agent Liberty go a long way in improving the show.
Those two are both way better actors than previous villains and way more compelling and human (ironic considering the theme of the season)
It helps they're more than generic bad guys who want to rule or kill people
Man I would watch the fuck out of a Manchester Black series with him beating the shit out of racists
Supergirl: If you kill him, what does that make you?
Manchester Black: The intolerant left.
