I suspected that with the announcement that Superman would be a living character within the Supergirl universe and more precisely in the first two episodes of Season 2, there was a chance that he would dominate the proceedings and sure enough, Superman/Clark Kent basically rendered Supergirl/Kara almost as a 'guest star' on her own series. I found the Superman story-line to be the biggest draw as well as its biggest hurdle moving forward. Since so much has been dumped on the Man of Steel, what's going to happen when he leaves and the rest of the cast is tasked to carry the show? We all know they can succeed, but I think once he leaves, there will be a big gaping hole and that means everyone: cast and writers, better up their game to offset Superman leaving. With that said, this episode was pretty good. I like that they are already expanding some of the back story to include Lex Luthor (who is never seen and in prison) as well as Lena Luthor...his sister, who looks to be groomed to be the series Big Bad. One last thing, I liked what Tyler Hoechlin brings as Superman, but I hate what they did with his costume. I can't stand in how they attach Superman's cape. What the f*ck is up with that? Supergirl's costume has the traditional attachment, but they do something completely different with Superman for the sake of being different. It looks stupid. FYI, the Special FX looked great and I'm surprised at how good it looks given that their budget was cut in the move to the CW. They may have blown most of their money in Episode 1.

I made a mistake in saying last week was the start of the Big Event Crossover. Nope....it starts tonight. D'oh!

Solid Season Finale with Supergirl, Superman and what seems like every other alien race that has appeared on the series so far coming out to take on Rhea and her soldiers. I like that they cast Teri Hatcher in the role. She looks to really be having fun with this character. It just sucks that they killed her off before they were able to work in a scene with Dean Cain. How or why they would share a scene is irrelevant. Just wanted to see it happen. I dug the fight scene between Supergirl and Superman, but I'm not buying it that she would beat him with an uppercut. I have no idea who the baby was that was sent to Earth 35 years ago in the Epilogue of the episode. Very curious who it turns out to be. Gotta wait for Season 3 for that to happen though.
