Against His Immense and Terrible Flesh

Quote:
The living lowest-hanging fruit that is the Venn diagram between “Superhero fans” and “Men’s Rights Activists” have recently lost their minds at the trailer for the upcoming CBS television show “Supergirl.” Alarmed that a female-led show might include such things as “romance,” “comedy” and – most offensive of all - “women” taking on controversial roles like “employer” and “sister” while men have been relegated to merely “all the other roles on the show,” they’ve vented their fury on the internet rather than merely choosing to not watch the thing, for some reason.

Still, to give them an apparently much-needed ego boost, I’ve composed the following synopsis of a 13-episode half-season for Supergirl which is completely tailored to their priorities and which should alleviate every single one of their giant baby idiot concerns:

Episode 1: Pilot: Supergirl arrives on Earth, is informed that there is already a man flying around and saving people’s lives, realizes that it would merely be tokenism for her to star in her own show and immediately retires from superheroing. Rest of episode is dedicated to her male co-workers playing an epic all-night Call of Duty scenario.

Episode 2: The Parasite attacks downtown. Supergirl is rendered helpless when the power-leeching supervillain dons a shirt reading “Cool Story Babe Now Go Make Me A Sandwich.” Spends rest of episode making sandwiches.

Episode 3: Terra-Man attacks downtown. Supergirl is rendered helpless when he accuses her of being a “fake geek girl” who “doesn’t even know that Jimmy Olsen is supposed to be white.”

Episode 4: Vartox attacks downtown. Supergirl is rendered helpless by his constant fedora-tipping and use of the term “m’lady.” Because he is nice to her, ancient Kryptonian law dictates that she is required to be his girlfriend.

Episode 5: Supergirl discovers an amazing new power – she can make sandwiches with her mind. Spends rest of episode making sandwiches.

Episode 6: A band of Social Justice Warriors attack downtown. Supergirl tells them “This isn’t an S on my chest, it’s my family’s crest. It stands for ‘Not Your Shield’.” They disperse to make sandwiches.

Episode 7: The Galactic Golem attacks downtown. Supergirl can’t stop him because she’s sitting quietly in the same room as her boyfriend as he and the other male characters on the show play an epic all-night Call of Duty scenario.

Episode 8: Toyman attacks downtown. Supergirl is helpless to defeat him because the Teen Titans have been sending her **** pics and she’s too flattered to respond.

Episode 9: Feminism attacks downtown. Supergirl destroys feminism completely by declaring that it’s “a pretty extreme label,” then makes sandwiches.

Episode 10: Bizarro Supergirl attacks downtown. She and Supergirl “lez out,” which her boyfriend calls “pretty hot.” Photos are stolen from Supergirl’s phone and end up on Perez Hilton’s site, but she admits that she’s at fault in the first place for ever getting nude in front of recordable media. Is flattered by the attention.

Episode 11: Ultra-Humanite attacks downtown. Supergirl is mansplained into helplessness. She ultimately is forced to become Ultra-Humanite’s “waifu.”

Episode 12: Misandry attacks downtown. Supergirl defeats it by chanting “Men are good, men are great, Feminism is a form of hate!” until it gives up, makes sandwiches.

Episode 13: All of Supergirl’s enemies attack downtown. Supergirl has a period, however, and must stay home making period sandwiches. Male characters on the show band together to defeat the bad guys using skills they picked up playing all-night Call of Duty scenarios. Episode ends with Superman showing up to spray-paint over the word “girl” in show title, replaces it with “man,” throws the horns, a guitar lick plays, everyone crushes beer cans on their heads. Supergirl shows her boobs, Superman slams an energy drink and turns baseball cap backwards on his head. An epic game of beer pong is played. Everyone vapes. End of season 1. Men win.
 
watched the leaked pilot. It was 'ok.' The main draw is the female lead - she is pretty darn likable and pretty funny. The rest of the cast is pretty forgettable...............
 
not sure if this means anything ,but its something positive lol

The pilot is ok, not really a weak start but nothing special.

Legends of Tomorrow though, that **** may be a poor man's Justice League, but looks amazing.
 
Saw the pilot, it wasn't bad. Flash CGI is better I think, it's a nice twist on the mythology, actually can't wait to see more of it, praying it doesn't become another Smallville.

not sure if this is a one off promo piece or a try out for a on going series ,but it a maybe good indication as to where the tv show is aiming to go
 
looks promising and well done! Dc is really scoring on tv- I can't stand Agents of Shield
 
I thought the first episode was really cheesy.... they stole a few ideas from the first superman movie, one being she saves a plane then the bad guy gets in touch with her by using a high frequency that only she can hear like Lex Luther did.... They refuse to say Clark, Kal-El or even Superman, they keep referring to him as "He" through the whole episode like if you said Superman to many times Beatle Juice would show up...

I mentioned this in the other forum... On Stargate SG-1, the actress who plays Sam Carter said the reason the role works so well and fits in with the other characters was because they wrote it as if she was a man, then she would just add in female touches in her acting... this made it feel more real.... The problem with Supergirl is they wrote her as a real girly girl... I assume this was to attract female viewers but I think it will backfire... They should of wrote her more of a tom boy...

I will say the special effects look really good....

I'm sure the first episode with have high ratings as people will be curious but I predict the ratings will drop off big time over the next 3-4 episodes... if the numbers start dipping into the 8 million and below I can see this being cancelled pretty quick as CBS requires it's big shows to have really high numbers to stick around... IMO this would of been a better fit on CW network...

I agree :goodpost:

I didn't watch the whole episode, but from what I saw, you're right about everything. I don't see this show getting a second season, unless they move it to The CW, if that's even possible.
