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.

What do you think? Do you like the Supergirl TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?

I watch super girl and the family loves the show also I don’t know the super heros have to get drunck also why did the director and writers permit .
I am very upset about the direction of season 2. My 11 & 13 year old girls watch with us. Is there a reason that the Super Hero had to get drunk. Is that what we want our young girls to think is cool? This show started out appropriate for my girls but has turned into an evening soap opera. Is there a reason that the Lesbian angle had to be part of the show. Our kids get enough of this all ready just by the nature of the world. Does it need to be in their shows. There is… Read more »
Lady, You’re not alone. Sad, I really liked the Pilot, but now “Everything” has to be “Gay” or so Ultra-Left the Commies think their whacky too!
I really had high hopes in the beginning, thought it would be a good character to look up to.
Those days died long ago.
Sad.
