The show’s decision to quietly set the stage for season 3 while it ties up loose ends is a smart one. Much of the episode feels mired in the past--and some critics may lament Kara’s post-breakup funk, rightfully so--but hopefully, once the season’s story really kicks into high gear, Supergirl will be flying higher than ever before.

Supergirl continues to fly high in her third season with simple and honest superhero fun. A superhero series without complications, which does not tighten the nuts more than they should in the action, nor in the violence, nor in the dramatic. Here, Supergirl generates a cult and tells us the process recalling, in a very intelligent way, the plane crash in which Kara had to intervene a few years ago, leaving the closet after it. An accidental witness of that rescue becomes leader of a sect that uses the authentic Kryptonian religion to base a religion on the superiority of the heroine. The episode mixes, without complicating, a few reflections on faith as support for desperate and how to differentiate a true faith from another that is not (spoiler: there is no way). And he does it as always, with disguised people flying and explosions.

SEASON 3
While the first and second season was content to say in it's own world, Season 3 actually had the guts to tackle more real world issues then I've seen a show like this approach. Though that has been happening a lot lately. Season 3 is bold, interesting and faster paced then the show has ever been.

SEASON 3
Supergirl continues to be the best superhero offering on television. The effects far exceed any other superhero show and the acting is superb. You will believe a girl can fly.

SEASON 3
While "Supergirl" remains entertaining as ever, the writing is inconsistent as it delivers a poor payoff to the overarching conflict despite some strong individual episodes.

SEASON 3
Season 3 was probably the most boring and forgettable season in the show. I actually had to look up on Wikipedia what episodes belonged to it, and it has only been a month since I watched it. In fact it was so boring that I used it as a background sound while I did my college projects. And the amount of chit-chat in it, argh! I decided to skip all the talking and only seeing the actual action scenes (which is, in case you're Warner Bros, basically what we actually watch superhero shows for), and ended up finishing each episode in hardly 5 minutes. There was something about a Kryptonian woman who decided to go evil because the voices inside her head compelled her to do so. Also Mon-El came back so everything that happened in the climax of the previous season goes down the drain. Although this wasn't a straight-up dumpster fire, provided Brainiac finally comes in it, Mon-El gets his comic costume and the action scene is still meaningful. There was also the Crisis on Earth-X, which is really annoying because it's the very reason why I have to watch it in the first place; otherwise I will not be able to understand Arrow and The Flash.

SEASON 3
Instead of concentrating on battling evil villains, the show is concentrating more on the relationship between Supergirl's adopted **** sister and her girlfriend. **** relations between consenting adults is one thing for an adult-based audience; but there are younger viewers to the show and should they be subjected to this lifestyle at their age?

SEASON 3
The show is a reasonable version of the DC characters, but is uneven in writing and direction. It tries to be campy and cute, then slides over to overdone drama, then fails miserably at social commentary. The worst is the lesbian romance. Not every show needs a **** subplot and this one suffers damage for its crude handling of the issue. This show frankly does not handle heterosexual relationships well either (as demonstrated when Kara gets totally turned inside out when Monel leaves then shows up again). The show lost its best comic relief when they wrote out Cat Grant. Her line about real life hubby, Harrison Ford, was gold! Now this show just takes itself too seriously. The Winn character cannot handle the needed comic relief on his own.
The season long story arc is hurting most CW super hero shows and this one is no exception. The Reign plot is plodding along at a snails pace. Boring! Comics are supposed to tie up their plots in an issue or two. Move the plot along, already!
Stick to super powers and punching out bad people. Find some better comic relief. Leave the romantic plot lines to the soaps.
