TV show description:
An action-adventure series, this TV show is based on the Supergirl character that first appeared in DC Comics publications in 1959.
Thanks to the help of her parents, pre-teen Kara Zor-El (Malina Weissman) escaped their doomed homeworld of Krypton by being sent to Earth. She is the cousin of Kal-El (Kevin Caliber) — better known in adulthood as Superman.
On Earth, Kara is raised by a pair of foster parents, scientists Jeremiah and Eliza Danvers (Dean Cain and Helen Slater). She keeps her superpowers a secret and often feels like she’s living in the shadow of her foster sister, Alex (Jordan Mazarati).
As a 24-year-old woman, Kara (Melissa Benoist) makes her home in National City and works as an assistant for Cat Grant (Calista Flockhart), a fierce taskmaster and the founder of a media conglomerate named CatCo.
Working alongside Kara are IT technician Winn Schott (Jeremy Jordan) and renowned photographer James Olsen (Mehcad Brooks). The latter has recently been poached from his job at The Daily Planet newspaper in Metropolis to serve as Cat’s new art director.
Kara manages to keep her Kryptonian abilities a secret but is ultimately enlisted by Hank Henshaw (David Harewood) — the head of a super-secret agency where her scientist sister Alex (Chyler Leigh) also works. Kara’s needed to help them protect the citizens of National City from evil forces and becomes a force for good like her cousin. She becomes Supergirl.
Series Finale:

What do you think? Do you like the Supergirl TV show? Do you think it should have ended or been renewed for a seventh season?
This show is one of my favorites! Please renew CBS – or move it to the CW. Either way – it must continue!!!!
This is Great well written show that should continue
I love this show! I don’t really watch TV but Supergirl is one of the three shows I watch and record on my DVR!
Love Supergirl. Please renew. My granddaughter and I enjoy watching together!
RENEW! I LOVE this show. I rarely watch network TV, Nothing worth watching in my opinion. but I DVR this EVERY WEEK cause I work Monday nights. PLEASE dont cancel! IF is, CW should jump on it ASAP!
I think the show could be great.I don’t think that cbs should change the prime time
Just watched supergirl cross over with the flash. Lost of fun.
Great show please renew for season 2
This is my favorite show on TV. Great characters.
Should be moved to Cw if cbs NCIS shows procedural both of a shows has a good Drama
Should move to CW or Possibly Netflix, CBS isn’t a good fit with all the NCIS shows and procedural dramas- Just saying..
THIS IS MY FAVOARITE SHOW EVER!! It inspires young girls including me! Please don’t cancel it!
i think the show could be good. i do not think that a prime time cbs show is where we should push black and white relationships. She will influence many small children who should not have that pushed on them. let them grow up and make their own decision. i think the ratings will continue to go down as long as they have this going on. i will not let my children watch it.
You won’t let your children watch the show because of a black/white relationship? That is very sad to hear. The show is showing that love is color blind. It is not like these two met at a bar and just fell into bed. Their love is developing out of friendship which should be what you want for your own children. Sounds like you should listen to your own words and let your children “grow up and make their own decisions”. Just saying.
Told you. I live in the real world. Look at this weeks ratings. Down 30%
It will keep going down until it is too late. Then when CBS tries to do something about it nobody will care and the show will be gone.
Renew definitely the show is excellent
Renew definitely the show is excellent
