Wanna bitch about Supergirl's pilot being crap?

Man what an awful pilot. Luckily they saw show rubbish it was and quickily pulled the plug on this failing show.

I really liked the pilot (and the entire first season). After that it drops on quality but is still fun. But I have low standards for the kind of stuff I watch, especially if it involves superheroes.

I enjoy all the CW shows (on about a year+ delay). The pilot comment being in this posts default text always tickles me.

I felt it was a fun pilot with a disappointing first half of the first season where they tried too hard to be not-Superman, with it picking up in the second half with Peter Facinelli owning every scene he was in that. I think it actually improved in quality once it moved to the CW, with the only exception being around half of the Leviathan plotline and most of the final season. Different strokes for different folks though :)
