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.

Last episode seeing only his red boots laying in the table was the dumbest thing they can did…Aughhhh!!!!!
It is an excellent series, i hope renovation and more funding for the production, actors, writers and producers are excellent and deserve more.
I love supergirl there are not many shows that I like anymore but I love Supergirl and never missed it so please make more
Supergirl is a well-written show with a cast of strong, talented actors who portray their characters quite convincingly. As I’ve found myself watching less CBS in the last few years, it has been a breath of fresh air in the CBS program line-up and should not be cancelled!
, I totally agree with you. This is a very well-written show with a good cast of actors. What I really appreciate is the fact that they’re showing the struggles of young girl trying to find herself and establish her place with her friends and in society. I could do without all of the bizarre criminals but the development of Supergirl among her friends and Society is fantastic
I agree TOTALLY! I love the show as well and it has made me watch CBS again after I stoped for the past few years. I would hate for it to be cancelled.
What? How you get thia Chart? Flash season 2 only got around 3 milions viewers. And this is around 6 milions. Are you kidding me?
Why does tv always screw it up, great show, cast well writtenetc.. What too smart for your audience of brain dead gamers? Tv will change for the worst we are already seeing that.
