SUPERGIRL/FLASH: Musical Crossover? Wtf?

After weeks of rumors, it's finally confirmed that The Flash and Supergirl will have a musical crossover. Smh.

This is usually a move that shows do out of desperation in their 5th (and above) seasons as their writers run out of ideas but it looks like the CW is either desperate or just taking a big risk for musical fans.

Why would this even be considered? The Flash's Grant Gustin and Supergirl's Melissa Benoist are Glee alumni. Jesse L. Martin (The Flash) was an original cast member for Rent, Carlos Valdes (The Flash) has albums and Jeremy Jordan (Supergirl) starred in NBC's Smash and is starring in Broadway's Newsies. Now word who exactly will be singing or dancing in the episode but it's assumed both stars will be taking center stage for it.

I personally, am not looking forward to this. It seems like a big mistake in my opinion and although comic books have that creative edge to pull off such odd things, I think that doing it on screen this early is not a good move but hey, it might actually be good, who knows?

Do you think this is a mistake?

SUPERGIRL: Sharon Leal Cast As Miss Martian

DC is trying their best to salvage Supergirl by featuring some cool characters! In one of my articles, I mentioned a few things that the CW would have to do to save the daughter of Krypton and it looks like they knew what they had to do too. Today it was released that Sharon Leal has been cast as Miss Martian! This marks the first time the character be adapted to live-action, having only appeared in comics and animation.

SUPERGIRL: Can CW Save Supergirl? Here's What Needs To Be Done.

By now, you've probably figured out that Supergirl was canceled by CBS and picked up by CW due to a decline in ratings. Despite the cross-over episode with CW's The Flash, the show wasn't able to hold on as its own overall. This could have been because CBS is home to more mature audiences where Supergirl, for the most part, appeals to a younger demographic. It was a risk for CBS to take for that reason alone but definitely worth it if it brought in more viewers from a wider spectrum of ages, however, it didn't.

CW is known for its teenage drama's and has remained successful for it since their WB days when Smallville used to be on. What does this mean for Supergirl? Since the show is more appealing to younger audiences, the CW is one of the perfect places to move it to. Seeing that CBS co-owns the network, it was no surprise that it moved there rather than ABC Family or what is now known as Freeform.

The network is also home to other superhero drama's like Arrow, The Flash and DC's Legends of Tomorrow and seeing that Supergirl is a DC character, CW is its best chance. But is the move enough to increase ratings and change already made opinions of the show since its first season? Here's what needs to be done:

1.) Better Story and Character Development: The first season lost its momentum and lagged in too many areas when it shouldn't have that eventually made the season seem long and dragged out. The characters were dull, making not only its hero boring but also their villains. If the CW plans on adding another successful super-hero show to their belt, this is something their writers are going to have to flesh out.

2.) Introduce New (familiar) Characters: Expand the series a bit by bringing in new characters from the comics and/or animated series. Powergirl would be an excellent guest star, Braniac would be an awesome villain and Ms. Martian would blow fans minds. Since the characters that CBS introduced didn't impress anyone, it's time to bring in the characters that do. As far as we know, at this point, Superman and Lena Luthor have been added to the recurring characters list and although Superman is a fan favorite, is he the best character to bring in right now seeing that this a Supergirl show and with Batman V. Superman and Justice League being so popular, is it a Superman overload? And how many people even knew Lex had a sister? Could this be a sign that CW isn't bringing the right characters in? Hopefully Tyler Hoechlin (Superman) and Katie McGrath (Lena Luthor) can give these characters the kind of appeal the show needs.

3.) Better Action & Special Effects: The first season was almost embarrassing to watch due to the cheesy action scenes and poor visual effects. So not only did the shows story and characters were bland, the action was lame. It's no wonder it had poor ratings. With shows like Arrow and The Flash under CW's responsibility, Supergirl has a great chance at upping that aspect in their favor so long as its star, Melissa Benoist, can pull it off like her male ally's.


Here's hoping that Supergirl can soar in with a better show to impress audiences or else it may just be cancelled for good.

SUPERGIRL: The New Superman Revealed

The following is a picture of the new suit.

Fans and even myself, are not too pleased with this angle of Tyler Hoechlin who is the most recent actor to dawn the Kryptonian shield. However other, more recent photographs flatter him more. Take a look:

He still looks scrawny to me with the exceptions of this legs. But that's just me.
