TV Season Review - Supergirl (Season 3)

So completing another Arrowverse season, we have Supergirl which was the show that in the USA was put on hold after its mid-season finale due to another show on The CW and therefore didn't run in sync with the rest of the shows. But now that it has finished, its time to have a look at it. Hearts will be broken, revelations will come true and the future depends on what happens in the present. So let's dive into the girl of steel's latest adventures:

Still dealing with the loss of Mon-El (reprised by Chris Wood), Kara (reprised by Melissa Benoist) decides to leave CatCo and push away all her friends to make Supergirl her primary focus. But with a little convincing, she goes back to being both Supergirl and Kara and continues to be the protector of National City. Throughout the season, J'onn (reprised by David Harewood) tries to reconcile with his father, Alex (reprised by Chyler Leigh) tries to maintain a relationship while also wanting to be a mother and a superhero team from the future calling themselves the Legion of Superheroes come to National City to warn Kara and the DEO of a so called world killer with some Kryptonian heritage. Plus Supergirl and Kara battle Nazis with the rest of the Arrowverse with the Nazis having a particular interest in Supergirl.

So compared to other seasons, I actually like this one. We get some much needed character development from each of the main cast throughout the season as well as the introduction of the Legion of Superheroes who add a bit of depth and comic relief to the show which is great. The villain I think was the best thing about this season as its one that despite being Kryptonian, has a split personality between being a human mother and a Kryptonian world killing machine which makes for some good story telling. A great season overall, just a shame we had to wait a bit longer for us to see the second half. 9/10
