Episode Summary & Review
Summary
Superman discovers Kara, the last survivor of a Kryptonian colony named Argo, who takes the identity of her first cousin and becomes Supergirl. Anxious to fight crime like Superman, Kara soon gets more than she asked for. She and Jimmy Olsen stumble upon a teenage Intergang operation, led by the sadistic Granny Goodness.
Our Take
A decent setup episode that spends most of its runtime on origin business before letting Kara cut loose. The Kara and Jimmy pairing is charming and Granny Goodness makes a genuinely creepy villain, though the teen Intergang plot feels thin. Worth watching if you want Supergirl’s introduction, just don’t expect the action to kick in until the back half.
