Review of Pilot

Supergirl: Pilot (2015)
Season 1, Episode 1
6/10
Non-Canon
25 November 2016
While the show has promise, it breaks with canon in so many ways, it hurts.

The original Supergirl and her more recent incarnations are present here somewhat, but for some reason the creators decided not to hide Kara Zor-L as Linda Lee of Linda Lee Danvers, but allow Kara Zor-El to be Kara Danvers.

Between that and no wig to hide her Blonde hair under a dark wig or Haida her dark hair under a blonde wig, the Bsupergirl persona looks too much like the Danvers one. Too obviously like the same character.

Maybe this was done so as not to confuse the pre-10 year old watchers.

While Superman.s strength was really super, Supergirl tires far too often. That, and the neo-Zod character of her Aunt, gives too many repeats to recent.Superpolts.

It is unclear as to if this is set in the Superman (1978) universe, or some entirely different one.
