CBS Launches 'Supergirl'

In this new age of superhero mania, it's hard to believe we have yet to see a female superhero (of which there are many) given her own show or movie, but all that's finally going to change this fall when CBS of all networks premieres Supergirl. Personally, I get a bad feeling from this trailer, and I can kind of understand all the online cracks about this looking a lot like the SNL parody of what a Marvel movie starring Black Widow would look like. Calista Flockhart looks pretty painful here and the whole Devil Wears Prada office setup is cause for concern. The only ray of hope is that this is once again the same team, led by Greg Berlanti, who spearheaded Arrow and The Flash, so maybe they can make magic once again (although the female characters on those shows haven't exactly been handled with flying colors either- Sara Lance as Canary being the one exception). We'll see.
