Ever since it was announced that Supergirl would not only be returning for a second season, but heading over to The CW to join the other DCTV superhero shows, the news was met with a mixed fan response.
There was excitement that the show would finally be on the same network as all of the other DC comics adaptations, but also concern that a smaller budget for the second season might have a negative affect on special effects or the ability to retain certain actors from season one.
Personally, I choose to remain on the side of cautious optimism–and I’m just glad we are getting a season two of Supergirl, regardless of network it’s on. Besides, you can’t deny that it’s going to be absolutely fabulous to have a different superhero show on The CW from Monday through Thursday–and that Supergirl is going to be remaining in its original Monday night timeslot, paired with similarly happy-Monday show Jane the Virgin. (They’re not on at competing times anymore! I don’t have to fight over which one I want to watch!)
