I love how hypercompetent Snapper is. He is like completely right.
I imagine this is what Snapper would be if they ever aged him up in the comics. The last time i read anything with him in it was 52 Aftermath, and he's got the right amount sarcasm and dickishness going for him here

I think they've got that character in a good place. Instead of being a work foil that Kara proves wrong, he's genuinely making her a better journalist. I guess the only problem is that I can't see them ever connecting on a person level. Which is fine for his character, but I wonder where Kara is going to get her life advice from. Hopefully not the holograph of her mom...

Poor Jimmy about to get replaced with that Alien Dick w/ the alien dick.
 
Dumping Jimmy is the best thing they did.

We now have a proven pattern for CW shows in regards to established love interests.

Flash Season 2: Bye Iris, Hello Patty
Supergirl Season 2: Bye Jimmy, Hello Alien Fratboy
Arrow Season 2: Bye Laurel, Hello Every Straight Woman in Starling City

Jimmy does feel superfluous at this point. Actually, Kara's personal life in general seems to have been squashed. I guess there isn't time. Catco Kara gets journalism lessons from Snapper, DEO Kara has aliens to punch, Winn has DEO computer magic to do, Alex has her own subplot, and Martian Manhunter is getting dating tips.

And every time it was for the better.

Is Max Lord off the show too?

It looks like it. It is strange because he did promo for season 2, so he might do some small appearances once he has time.
 
Kinda hate how weak they portrait Kara lately...i get why they do it but come on.

Also....4 episodes in...James has been in like 4 minutes in total ? lol wonder when hes gonna die.

Keep him off the show long enough for people to not care about his old characterization or forget it.

Allows to character reboot better

I agree - he was really useless in S1.

Dont know how they could improve him though...he has no powers lol. Is the Kara x James thing something that happens in the comic too ?

No. Not that they have shown any inclination toward sticking to 'canon' couples that do not work.

Kara is more often than not paired with Braniac 5.

Yikes...yeah i dont think James can be redeemed - thought he had some kind of plot shield going on so they would have to make him relevant again. Dont think that will be necessary.

Looks to me like they intend to do a full scale re-tooling. This is a good idea.
 
Maybe all the lead that is around is making Mon El weaker than he truly is. Can he write with a pencil? What about old lead paint? Use a computer or stand next to old lead pipes?
 
This show really does have too many characters sometimes. What happened to Faran Tahir's character in the pilot? He showed up that once then never again.
 
Joe and Cat are invincible in Arrowverse....cant hate them, they are too good.
 
Joe is a bit too on the nose nowadays. After three seasons, Barry shouldn't need that much assistance.

Nah Joe is just fine considering all the family Drama he had to handle the last 2 seasons.

I also miss that DEO chick from season 1 who was just always there when she was needed but never had her own plot. Gotta get some of those background characters back dammit.
