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?

The number of obvious CBS shills on here posting positive comments about this crappy show is hilarious. “I enjoyed watching this show with my whole family it’s on CBS Monday night at 8” or some variation thereof. GTFO of here seriously.
um why are you watching , if you don’t like it?
Nay it’s STEVE and MARTIN, I think it’s the same person. The person is ether spamming this thread to be funny or there unstable. Why doesn’t the moderator do something?
This show is retarded. The female superhero is so cliché it’s annoying. Cancel this trash to make way for something better
Right now nearly 8 million viewers are saying you’re wrong….just hit a few numbers on that remote and maybe you can find a reality show that will please you. lmao
so if 8 million people jumped off a bridge, would you do it also? and instead of telling us how good superhurl is (because you can’t) you make a personal attack with the stupid reality show comment.
pot meet kettle
So, you are having a tantrum about a show you don’t like and then attack someone for telling you to watch another show?? Please tell me you are a juvenile so at least your hissy fit makes sense
I am not a shill and I love Supergirl. The acting is great and love the cast. This show us better than Arrow which has become CW’s version of the Walking Dead. It was good the first season but too many characters coming back from the dead. It has lost it’s charm
How is she cliche I was stunned to see something fresh and different? CW’s take on Supergirl was spunky. This version had a more vulnerable feel. At first I didn’t know how I felt about it. Then I watched her develop and grow into a brave young lady. I’ve grown to rather be fond of CBS’s take on Supergirl. I think you should give it more of a chance.
I enjoyed watching supergirl tonight my whole family love this show looking forward to watch
supergirl which is on Monday night it would be nice if cbs would renew the show for another
season.
I enjoyed Supergirl tonight my whole family love this show we are looking forward to next week s episode, I am so happy that CBS has this great show on Monday night and I hope there will be a full season this season, and you must renew this great show for another season. CBS must keep their fan happy so just renew it for another full season.
Supergirl is a excellent show that cbs as on
Monday night at 8 o’clock that is a perfect
time my son Loves the show as well
There kids love the show.
Supergirl is an excellent show I love watching a Monday night at 8 o’clock it’s at a perfect time my daughter loves it her kids love it my older brother loves it my grandkids love it its got the whole range range range from 10 years old up to 60 it is an excellent show the ratings are there CBS got a good show now let’s keep it going and run a full season and renew it for another season does it deserves.
This show needs to be canceled immediately. What a disgrace to the fans. Ratings will decrease rapidly if this is not done.
Seriously what’s such a disgrace, the fact that the show teaches decency, morals, goodness, self sacrifice and compassion? Since when was that a disgrace to the fans? Oh wow your right, I guess we should all go watch some piece of dirt show were everyone is sleeping with everyone else. Huh, huh, hue… NOT!!!
Jimmy Olsen the Cub Reporter was NOT Black as depicted in Supergirl. What were the writers of this show thinking when they have 2 White Women fighting for a Black Mans affection!!
I believe you are a bigot.
Why, because I want this show to stick to the same tradition it had for over 50 Years. I never read a Supergirl or Superman Comic where Jimmy Olsen was a Hunky Black Man. I guess next we’ll see Batman or James Bond as a Black Man, Jeez. You must love the Kardashion’s since they all love Black Men.
oh calm down
“Tradition” is a weak excuse for racism. Slavery was a “tradition.” I, for one, am glad to see adaptations actually adapting to modern times. Maybe everyone in comics was white 50 years ago, but there have been a lot of changes since then, many of them for the better.
I agree, there have been a lot of changes in the past 50 Years. I don’t however agree “many” of them are for the better. I’m glad I was alive in the 50’s when things were much better than they are now. I”m not referring to the Black and White situation, just to all the craziness going on nowadays.
It certainly is not going to resonate with black women. Huge mistake. There is a very large percentage of the black female population who do not like white girls stealing their men. Call it racist if you want, but reality is reality.
aw its no different then , another character who I love , is in complete contradiction, on 1 hand in ones own opinion this person appears like they prefer the same gender as there own based on demeanor , and mannerism , on another hand though that person is crushin on the opposite gender, but ether way I love that character, not saying who it is that I think that off.
Love who you want Kathryn, I’m speaking of Tradition!
Speaking of tradition and off both what you are talking about was the….don’t hate me if I misspell , the Wen character, ever in any Superman/Supergirl comics ?
I think the show is great I look forward to watching it every Monday night it’s about time CBS put something good on Monday night. It’s a great show.
That’s the same words almost exactly STEVE and MARTIN wrote…MARTY now! Dude just how many fake aliases are you going to create on this thread? Your not fouling any one.
The show stinks….
I was at my daughters house for Thanksgiving and my grandson and even my daughter and her husband watch Supergirl they love the show just like I love the show so I think CBS made an excellent choice and putting it on channel CBS & I hope they keep it onCBS because it’s got a wide range of age group that is interested in watching the show so just renewed for another season
I love Supergirl CBS please keep this one on.So what if Jimmy is black .Get with the program God did not make the whole world white.This is a great show. I am a woman of color and I don’t have any problem with this. Plus the women are beautiful.
What does GOD have to do with a Comic Book?
