Actually I think Lucy got more likable towards the end of season 1, especially once she was included in Kara's secret and ended things with James.
But, she's not really a needed character now so I'm good with them not including her.
I just looked her up and she actually appeared in 13 of the 20 episodes last season. That's actually a lot for a recurring guest star. Some actors require in their contracts to get a guaranteed number of appearances for TV and I'm willing to bet that once the show moved to The CW, that was out of the cards for her.

I wasn't feeling this ep for the 1st 90% because the bad girl had zero depth but in the last 10% they set up some promising season arc possibilities.
Already some grumbling about Preisident Carter. Don't blame me I voted for Kodos.

Once the POTUS reveal came at the end I started to wonder if the weird speech pattern was intentional due to what she is.

I figured the easy guest spots for Lucy Lane and Maxwell Lord would be casualties of the Canada move.
I wasn't all that crazy about the bar of freaks. It almost felt season 2 of Dark Angel ridiculous.

It reminded me of the cantina scene in the original Star Wars, which was fine for a galaxy far, far away, but I'm just not enjoying the idea that Earth is crawling with many more aliens besides the Kryptonians. I can barely stand the Martian dude as it is.

You can watch the original Wonder Woman show in HD now
It's scary how hot Lynda Carter was back then (still looking good today)
Definitely one of the hottest in hollywood history in her prime

So I gave this a try finally last night; really wanted to see the two Superman episodes, but this was the earliest episode on the CW app.
It was an extremely painful 10-15 minutes before I had to shut it off; it felt cheap and tacky in terms of character interactions compared to the other CW shows and I felt pummeled by really ham-fisted socially aware references.
Does it get any better? I really wanted to like it, but for me it was more painful than last season of Arrow which really hit some low points.

The show now has its heart in the right place most of the time. They've more fully embraced the comic book essence that is Supergirl.

finally getting caught up on the dc tv shows
they said the signature of the heat vision either meant kryptonian or infernian, yet Kara's heat vision is blue not big orange fiery balls

Yup, I'm sure it is pretty simple to get some other woman into that Martian suit. Also helps the race shapeshifts. She just choose a different human disguise.
