Our Review
Stargirl (2020) is a action and adventure series from The CW. It premiered on May 18, 2020. Viewers rate it 6.6 out of 10. It is currently ended. It runs 3 seasons.
What Stargirl Is About
Stargirl follows high school sophomore Courtney Whitmore, who moves to Blue Valley, Nebraska after her mother remarries Pat Dugan, a former member of the Justice Society of America. She uncovers dark secrets from her family’s past, receives Starman’s very useful cosmic staff, joins the Justice Society of America and inspires the unlikely group of young heroes to stop the villains of the past.
What to Expect When You Watch
The format keeps each instalment self-contained enough to drop into, spread across 3 seasons and it leans into its action/adventure roots while leaving room for the quieter character beats.
Production values hold steady, and the series keeps a consistent tone rather than chasing trends.
Why It Stands Out
Fans of action, adventure and supernatural have a clear reason to give this one a shot. It sits comfortably alongside The CW’s other originals, a 6.6/10 audience score puts it in steady company and it commits to its premise instead of hedging between tones.
Released in 2020 and carried by The CW with the series still ended, it lands hardest with action and adventure viewers.
How Stargirl Compares
If Stargirl lands for you, the next stops are Avatar: The Last Airbender, Attack on Titan and Star Trek: The Next Generation, which share its action/adventure lean.
Each of those sits at a different point on the same spectrum, so they make a natural follow-up once you finish the run here.

On the whole Stargirl is the kind of series that rewards a patient watch, a tone that stays true to its action/adventure roots, It has held up since 2020 and so if the premise sounds like your lane, the execution holds up.
The Bottom Line
Stargirl is a safe bet for anyone already inside the action and adventure lane, the audience score holds around 6.6/10 and so there is little risk in starting it tonight.
Verdict: 6.6/10. Watch it if you want action/adventure you can settle into.
