I have five episodes to watch on my DVR. Is Alex still wearing clown makeup and pretending to be a vigilante that no one would recognize?

Am I the only one questioning how ZorEl can speak English? It would make more sense for them to speak in Kryptonese, at least in greeting. And as far as I could tell from the pilot episode she called her parents mother and father not mom and dad.

I thought this show was about super girl, not Alex’s insecurities, plus she has NO superpowers so WTF is she even in the ship?? They’re rescuing Supergirl but it’s all about Alex, the selfish cow. In the other hand, I loved Myxysptlix- I didn’t look up the name so hopefully it’s spelt ok. So to have the female version of evil Nixy will bring interesting dramas!! Kryptonians are vulnerable to magic, or so I remember in the comics back in the 80s.

Yes Alex is the worst. So selfish and stubborn. Awful character.

I haven5 watched the show for awhile, but turned it on last night. Now I know. The writing was so cheesy, and randomly trying to be poetic, jon, oh man, and with his portrayal, and that writing, it's almost like he was funneling Adam West. It's time.

I was fully expecting Alex to either die or to ask Kelly to marry her. Still, everything in this Alienesque episode is Alex's fault, what possessed her to bring so much danger to her crew. So many good lines and moments in this episode.

Coming back after S5 this episode alone is very satisfying. I hope the rest is gonna be the same.

Also Lena is now part of the Super Friend Zo- Super Friends? Yeeees!

I loved the Harry Potter references and the fact that brainy is afraid of balloons. It’s just the small things that can make an episode a little bit better.

Kelly Olsen can deliver killer comeback speeches! Get that woman a headset and a hero to chat up!

So Alex tried to help John then gets stabbed then says it's no big deal. She's stupid.

This was a really good episode.

Season six has been putting out bangers.

I feel like I owe the writer an apology for calling out their “character assassination” of Alex Danvers.... good job in this episode !

Well at least now the only zone Kara is trapped in is the Lena friend zone

u/KrayleyAML May 12 '21

After buying that 750 millon dollar company, I think it's poor Lena the one that's trapped in the friend zone. Girl is now broke and single.

u/nullnicky May 12 '21

She sold it to Andrea though, so hopefully at least broke even. I m sure Lena's bank account is alright from being CEO for a few years.

Fuck. Nyxly’s on the ship. She’s 100% the main villain for Season 6.

u/Ygomaster07 May 12 '21

I am so hyped for her as a villain.

u/Munro_McLaren May 12 '21

I wish the villain was more personal or a Supergirl villain. She isn’t either.
