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.

What do you think? Do you like the Supergirl TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Supergirl is my favorite show! It is definitely something I look forward to watching every single week. I would definitely keep watching if it’s renewed; so I hope it is!
Keep it goig. Each week it kept on getting better. Looking forward to a second season.
why can superman fly in space but supergirl can’t? and I don’t think it makes sense that a punch from silver banshee who is a human should knock supergirl off her feet. I would get if non or j’onn punched her and she took damage because their strength is similar to hers, but silver banshee’s scream is the only powerful thing, not her punch
Me and my kids LOVE this show! Please renew! We look forward to supergirl and her friends every week, have never missed an episode! I keep checking for the renewal notice, I will NOT have the heart to tell them if it’s cancelled! Just watched the finale, can’t wait for it to start again!
RENEW!

My family loves watching Supergirl together. We don’t watch much TV but always make time for Supergirl. I love the values it teaches about being brave and courageous and a good friend, and there isn’t immodest behavior. Truly a family friendly show and would love to see it continue
Supergirl is one of my favorite shows on TV; I always make time to see each new episode.

We want Supergirl to be renewed. It’s a great family show that I can watch with my grandparents kids. I also watch about 95%of my TV shows on your channel.
