It's not. But we're hoping it might be on the remote chance that CW will pick up the show or at least just get Matt Ryan to appear as guest star Constantine .

HBO level or bigger?
I've been meaning to watch Reign, but haven't gotten round it yet. Really need to get on that...

Did we get any real reason to believe they're not? I mean..I can't imagine Lego guys doing brooding Flash. I get that people complain about MoS, but I don't think Snyder wanted to make a dark movie, it felt like he wanted to inspirational drama and just failed at it,

Depends on what HBO show
It sure looks more expensive than True Blood.And most cable networks don't even dream of doing HBO-level budgets

I like the tone, looks like fun
But I don't like the pop music. My only gripe.

mmmmmmmh.... I'm going to watch it, but I wonder what the target demographic is? It almost seemed too casual to appeal directly for comic heads, but it seemed very, teeny bopper if you ask me...
Sure the first few episodes fine, but once the series goes on I'd like it to take itself more seriously, and for Super Girl to take herself more seriously... Not some clumsy babe all the time (outside of her office job, ala clark kent)
I mean we are talking about one of the more powerful superheroes in existence.

Saw the second trailer that was posted upthread.
Music is better.
Trailer is blander.

It looks fun enough to watch at least the first 3 episodes. I'll give it a chance. I like that it isn't going for the tired grimdark thing the DCCU movies seem to be shooting for.

I still say they should get Zack Snyder to cut the trailer.

Music is both better and worse. The overly dramatic choral stuff just isn't working for me on this one. I do like some of the new scenes shown, but I still think the first extended look was better.
Yeah, overly dramatic choral stuff is a huge pet peeve of mine in trailers, but none of this music will actually be in the show, so I'm pretty indifferent.

So where did the info come in that Greg got it in his contract with CBS that Kara could be used on Arrow and Flash?

Well you'll get it before me .
Damm UK ... It probably wont get picked up untill Spring. Hell Agent Carter still hasn't released here yet.It's like they intentionally cut the extended one different from this one, what surprise.
It's like if you took the Flash trailer from last year, cut out nearly all the Weather Wizard scenes and replace them with everyone telling Barry what happened in the 9 months since his coma (my fiancee died, I'm seeing my dad's partner now, etc.). People would complain just as much.

I think what rubs me the wrong way about the 2-minute trailer is that they killed all the jokes. Everything that gives her a discernable, engaging personality is in that ad. It doesn't hook me. The orchestral stuff isn't enough to make up for that.
Too bad reading through the thread again, it would say otherwise.

Melissa Benoist Melissa Benoist Melissa Benoist. So glad it looks like the show has its own tone and voice. I think it nailed the aspect that the Super family looks to inspire people but they also look to ordinary people for inspiration.
Kinda reminds me of that leaked Tim Krig's Wonder Woman tv show.

Look like it has potential..
If they keep mentioning superman over and over without showing him it's going to get really awkward.
Also, I don't see how they are going to even try to make the secret identity thing work..
It seems like supergirl just tells everyone who she is.. and she goes without glasses as her alter ego all the time.
Costume would be good if they didn't remove the yellow from the S.. I don't know what they were thinking there, it just looks blander this way.

Not bad... It's got just the right tone for what it is. But the key is Benoist who she seems really likeable, which ties it all together. Kara's life both in and out of costume show potential to be good fun.
Couldn't have really expected much better.

Why's everyone tripping on Dean Cain being in this thing?
Helen Slater is standing right there. Right next to his doofy ass.

Her role as Supergirl is probably older than a good deal of Gaffers. And I guess maybe her role in Smallville wasn't that memorable or people didn't watch that show (I didn't).
No one watched that movie, so I doubt 99% of people alive know who she is/was. Whereas Dean Cain has inspired an entire generation!

Inside and outside the costume she looks the same, even with glasses and her hair done up.
Come on.

So whats the deal
TV Superman is separate from the Movie one but is restricted from having his own show or appearance
But Big Movie DC charactes can be referenced in the background as theuir TV counterparts?
Im trying to wrap my head around how DC is handling this split universe stuff

Movies and TV are 100% separate.
Everything is separate.
So now DC have:
-the new movie-verse
-Arrow-verse
-Gotham-verse
-Constantine-verse
-Supergirl-verse (most likely)
