Get Kate Kane in there as an older female role model with great speeches.
She shows up to spy on Lena so they initially don't get along.
Yeah, and he's not getting enough screentime as it is.
Since Winn moved over to the DEO and Jimmy is doing the vigilante thing, they've dropped like 95% of the "workplace Kara" stuff, which is too bad, because I always liked that more than the secret agent stuff.

That looked really good. Plus it confirms the return of my favorite one shot villain.
She's playing Roulette.

She's in every other show man. That actress gets around.
No kidding. Last time I saw her before Supergirl was on The Last Ship this season.

Funny thing is she was on The Last Ship and Last Resort.
Was kinda wasted on Being Human.

Caught up with s2 after reaching the crossover ep in flash and decided to watch all of it first.
Such a big difference from s1, thought s1 was very mediocre, with only like 2 good episodes.
The move to CW almost feels like a relaunch of the show, the new base, the new editor, the alien bar; I never really liked the supergirl bits that much because the physicality and over reliance on cgi (badly composited) just fell flat everytime.
I routinely compared it to flash, where practical effects and action choreography were so much better, perhaps because of having to make to with a lower budget?
Whatever it is, it seems to have crossed over to s2 of supergirl, much better shot scenes, much better pacing, much more visceral action choreography, much better practical shots and cgi blending/compositing.
Sure we get more night shots now, but overall I feel the show has taken a massive leap forward by moving to CW, even Guardian turned out pretty good and I like his look.
I hope it continues the trend for the rest of the season.

She was also really wasted on The Last Ship, Dichen typically doesn't get hired for such a minor role.

True, hope they bring her back next season.

Her and Gjokaj deserved bigger roles in Dollhouse than they got. They were definitely the standout actors in that show. I vaguely remember Season 2 giving them more to work with though.

But seriously, that's sad to hear. Their schedule and the move to Vancouver probably isn't easy on a young marriage.
Edit: Wingfan and I will now be dueling to the death. Winner gets a plane ticket to Vancouver for pilot season

Hopefully, Melissa and I will be able to announce our engagement shortly. I just have to alert my current bride to be it's off then wait for her divorce to be finalized.
Marriage from folks who started dating in their early 20s falls apart, what a shock.
Also Grant Gustin has a girlfriend before people start shipping IRL again, not to mention it's just generally creepy.
At least I live in Seattle, I'm closest.
You don't know. Maybe out of shape guys with aspergers and a litany of anxiety disorders is her type.

Guess Cat's son isn't showing up anytime soon either.
Someone get her a GAF account.
Maybe she might want to visit the City of Angels, eh?
Dying right now. Wait until she sees the monthly dating age threads.
To get away from the creepy, our favorite villains are returning.

They haven't told which fan favorites but who knows.

CYBORG SUPERMAN needs a side kick.

Roulette was my favorite so they already had me covered. I'm ambivalent about Metallo, he has potential but was pretty forgettable. Livewire was sorta dope, sorta cookie cutter but you her powerset opens up possibilities.
Kidding aside, I'm also happy Livewire is back. She was fun and she has to redeem herself for that crossover episode.

I'm putting down $50 that the other "fan favorite" is
Silver Banshee. She's the only person I can think of with significant screen time (regular and as a villain) and she was in the Flash/Supergirl crossover. They probably just need to work out something with the actress. Personally, I didn't like Banshee much. Felt too much like a cheap genre show villain.
Or it could be whatever that Brainiac woman was called in Season 1. There really aren't too many other choices.

There's no fan favorite villains. This show is lousy at villains.
I'd guess Silver Banshee or Maxwell Lord. Italia Ricci is full time on Designated Survivor so scheduling or contracts might be an issue there.
Lashley
Why does he wear the mask!?
Shame. Never nice to see a couple break up.
Honestly..that axe guy from pilot was hilariously probably the best villain Supergirl had
Too bad he is dead.

You should see his comics version.
