I take this statement with a grain of salt.

Thanks for trying.

And you actually posted Resident Evil as a movie series that you enjoy, yet you are quick to denounce Supergirl? Wow...such morbidity.

 

Because it doesn't support your baseless assumption about me not liking a strong female lead. You literally have no evidence to support that. Everything I said about the pilot had nothing to do with it being a female in it and everything to do with the forced dialogue, weak fight scenes, and overall poor story telling.
Her being a woman had nothing to do with it. You know what it enjoy your show.

 

I'm more than inclined to suggest that your previous post were just to save some face value. Yes, I do recall you liking Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but as far as "bad ass female leads"...I do question that given you history on here. So I do have more than enough of a right to question your reason as to why you assume that Supergirl would be terrible based on the pilot. Arrow's first episode was slow to generate, as did Smallville, yet you are quick to suggest that they had good pilots?

As I said, just give the show a chance and let it build up. If you watch at least half of the first season and it still doesn't catch you, then I'll readily understand it.

But in the meantime, you're just making quick snap judgments on a show and it could very well be just a warm-up for what's to come.

 

Dude did you write the pilot?
Again its just my opinion I didn't like it
I thought Sailor Moon was shit too, am I allowed to think that? lol

 

Do I need to? I'm just less inclined to judge a show on the pilot and, in the case of this story, I saw the whole episode myself and it definitely has a lot of potential. As I said, give it a few episodes. TV shows don't have the same budgets as movies, so I'm inclined to give it a chance, especially since they are stretching resources between Arrow, Flash, and Legends of Tomorrow. For this bit of effort, I'll keep my optimism.

 

Back in the days, I used to watch almost every pilot for a tv show. We didn't have cable at the time and it was a subject of conversation among the other kids. Like everything in life, some pilots worked, others didn't. But back then, these pilots, in an attempt to gat viewers tried every trend available. In this case, it was the following genres of sexy women, handsome men in sci-fi(which was very big), adventure, sitcoms and westerns. Crime, legal and medical dramas remained the same. I remember seeing Jaime Lee Curtis in a failed pilot called Callahan, an Indiana Jones-like comedy adventure show. Indy inspired a lot of adventure shows like Tales Of The Gold Monkey and Bring 'Em Back Alive. Others came and went after a few shows and never saw the light of day. Such a show was Q. E. D. With Sam Waterston. After what seemed like a month on tv, it went off the air. I believe that a show needs a chance to prove itself. I'm sure we all remember Star Trek: The Next Generation and how well it had done. I remember having a hard time trying to like the cast of characters in the show. They were hard to like. Especially, Captain Picard and Commander Riker. But after carefully and wonderfully written stories, the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise became endeared to Trekkies and non-Trekkies. We can only choose to watch it, or not.
