Take the clumsy charm of Christopher Reeve’s Clark Kent, just not the same level of confidence of his Superman. Add the bubblegummy flightiness of Lois & Clark. Stir in some freak-of-the-week essence from Smallville and a dash of cynical but insightful wordly wisdom from a late-1990s David E. Kelley dramedy.
Then leave it overnight and sour it slightly with some ill-advised romance that diminishes its otherwise winning main character, and that’s Supergirl for you: An enjoyable throwback to a family-friendly time that hits some turbulence along the way but tries hard to fulfil its potential.
