Supergirl: Hope for Tomorrow

There’s a big peace conference, random good deeds, and a new subplot that I think is an absolutely horrible idea. With this being the final season, maybe there is, in fact, “Hope For Tomorrow.”

Stargirl: Summer School, Chapter Ten

Eclipso’s rampage in Blue Valley continues. Stargirl’s new JSA has been pretty much taken apart, and now there’s a lot of strain among the members who remain. We see family tension, a few different ideas of ways to help, and an unexpected visit among other things in this episode.

Supergirl: Magical Thinking

The final season of Supergirl is, in my opinion, dragging. I don’t know if they’re suffering from bad writing, bad editing, or some combination, but a lot of what’s going on isn’t really making sense. I really liked this series when it came out, and some of my favorite characters are on this show, but this just really isn’t working.

Stargirl: Summer School, Chapter 9

Despite the cheery title of “Summer School,” the second season of Stargirl has been increasingly dark and grim. The evil of Eclilpso is loose in Blue Valley, and the novice heroes are no match for him.

Supergirl: The Gauntlet

The sixth and final season of Supergirl is heading for the series finale as the “Superfriends” clash with the evil Nxy and her alien sidekick, Mitch. The opposing factions are now racing to find special totems to give them what they need to defeat each other.

Supergirl: Blind Spots

You’d have thought that returning from the Phantom Zone would have been a high point for Supergirl and her team. Even though her PTSD was remarkably short-lived (just an episode, conveniently), there have been other problems, many of them from Dreamer’s horrendously selfish decision to help the 5th Dimensional Imp Nxylgsptinz get to Earth.

Stargirl: Summer School, Chapter Seven

Stargirl and her new JSA are having a rough summer. Not only do two of them have to go to summer school, which no teen wants, but they’ve dealt with malicious teachers, a powerful demon on the loose, a rival team being put together, and an enigmatic 19th century visitor. In addition to this they have mysteries involving their predecessors, complicated love lives, crushing guilt, and a lot of pressure as the stakes are constantly being raised.

Supergirl: Mxy in the Middle

Last episode ended with a trapped and desperate Supergirl calling for help in a most unexpected direction.

Stargirl: Summer School, Chapter Six

They’ve been doing a good job showing Cindy Burman, AKA Shiv, putting together a team to challenge Stargirl’s fledgling Justice Society of America. Now, at least most of the pieces are in place and Cindy is making her move.

Supergirl: Still I Rise

Supergirl’s final season has been remarkably uneven on many fronts. This particular episode has many of these problems all at once. There are a few good scenes, a few really bad ones, inconsistent internal logic, and characters using powers that don’t make sense, as well as forgetting powers and helpful coincidence.
