The CW has been having some great success with DC Comics superhero shows. Now, CBS has gotten into the game with their own entry — Supergirl. While Arrow and The Flash fit well with rest of The CW’s programming, Supergirl seems out of place on CBS, a network known for older-skewing procedurals. Will the new series soar in the ratings or will it crash? Cancelled or renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.
Supergirl revolves around Superman’s cousin, Kara Zor-El (Melissa Benoist). As a girl, she survived Krypton’s destruction by being sent to Earth where she was raised as a human. She kept her powers a secret and now, as an adult, works as an assistant at a big city media conglomerate. Kara’s existence becomes known to the world and she is enlisted by a super-secret agency to help protect the citizens from evil forces as Supergirl. The rest of the cast includes Calista Flockhart, Chyler Leigh, Mehcad Brooks, David Harewood, and Jeremy Jordan.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
5/12 update: Supergirl has been renewed for a second season but is moving to The CW.

Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you like the Supergirl TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?

LOL them ratings 😀
I love season 1 and season 2 .I can’t wait until the new season and the grandchildren love the show
I love season one and I love season too can’t wait for the new season to start excellent show how family watch is it a grand kids watched it in my brother and I watch it every week
I enjoyed season one. Season 2 just jumped
in full and they have and excellent
show.
I enjoyed season 1. Season 2 just jumped into full on politics with the writers full on campaigning for Hillary Clinton. They don’t even try to be subtle. When I want politics, I watch the news. I think Supergirl has tremendous potential and they have the perfect actress for the part. Get different writers and lay off the politics or this show will wind up in the dust bin, which I would hate to see. I’m watchning on netflix and not even sure I’m going to make it through season 2. Stop trying subliminal mind control and just entertain!
Please renew
