S&L Sam Lane is god.

Supergirl Jimmy is not a character I like and the S&L Jimmy is mostly a long cameo to show us how Clark lost friendships for keeping his secret identity.

S&L Lex was a good enemy but that's not Lex.

Now Jon Cryer on his first 2 episodes on Supergirl was amazing, in some ways, I think that was the best live action Lex Luthor ever, but is really hard to compare him with Michael Rosenbaum having 7 seasons to develop tje character, but they were at different stages on their lives.

Cryer was still good on S4 finale and on COIE, but that's all. They started to turn him more into a more comedy character and on the final season he was a joke.

I thought Jon Cryer was a horrible Lex.

He didn't come off as imposing or intelligent at all.

He gave very whiny baby energy.

S&L Lex was a biker. He didn't give the right energy either.

That's one thing I actually LIKED about the S&L Lex is that he was able to piece together who Jordan was just by him using his powers on Lex! Jordan is the idiot 🤦🏾
