I like the look, it's the more traditional design with the newer Man of Steel colors, it fits with the superman design well.

 

As for the alternatives, not going to happen, no need to show more skin just for the heck of it. If they bring supergirl to the movies then I actually hope she's older and not a teen, give me, say, 25-28yo superwoman.

Im gunna watch this just for Kara shes cute as hell :p

But yeah Mad Hatter said it best with the teaser showing most the season

Hardly, just the pilot and obligatory setups, and her boss Cat Grant has been a PITA for decades so her attitude fits. I'll give it a few episodes for a typical goofy 20ish girl to begin growing up.

Hate it or like it, things get really interesting if they do crossovers with Arrow and Flash, even if it's on a different channel, it's the same companies behind both of them.

 

Also, maybe putting this on CBS, and not the CW could be because, as MoS hinted at, we could get supergirl in the next MoS movie?   While they might crossover on the TV with Arrow and Flash, having it on CBS and not the CW like the other two gives WB enough buffer to also use the character in the movies without complicating things.  Though, I honestly don't get why it'd be hard to just link the movies with the tv series now, supergirl could be the show that does it actually.

Very forced dialog and bad comedic timing. Will watch a few episodes before deciding. But this doesn't look that promising. Why do they have to make that much of her being female? She's a superhero made into a girl that want to succeed. Very generic american dream from that preview. It's boring and bland. Supergirl can be just as good as Superman can with little to no forced girly issues being thrown in your face.

How on Earth could this crossover with MoS universe? The tone couldn't be more different between the two.

 

Anyway, looks pretty cheap and very cheesy. They can still pull of an entertaining show out of it, if they're self-aware, but I'll pass.

You should re-read what I said, I never said it'd crossover with the MoS movie universe, I'd said they'd be able to use the character, supergirl, in a future MoS movie, there's a difference.   This supergirl tv series could crossover with Arrow and Flash though, which is what I expect more.   Having "supergirl" on CBS and not the CW would just be because WB/DC wants to use the character in a movie, putting it on CW means you tie it to the other two shows at the hip, I'm guessing they don't want to, even though it's the same companies behind all 3 tv shows so they could do a crossover between the three or not.

    • A coalition of publishers sued OpenAI and Microsoft over scraping content without consent

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      A coalition of publishers sued OpenAI and Microsoft over scraping content without consent by Hamid Ganji Image via Depositphotos.com AI companies often rely on readily available internet content to train their chatbots and provide users with instant answers. This method of AI training is fast and relatively inexpensive, but using a website’s content without permission or compensation is not something publishers like to see, and this is exactly why Microsoft and OpenAI are now being sued. As reported by Bloomberg, a group of publishers that collectively own nearly 400 newspapers has filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft. The coalition argues that the two companies scraped their content to build AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Copilot without paying any compensation. The complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, argues that while AI products have generated billions of dollars in market value using publishers’ work, none of that value has been shared with the publishers. The plaintiffs are seeking statutory damages and injunctive relief for alleged copyright infringement and violations of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. “Defendants systematically and secretly crawled the Publishers’ websites—including content behind paywalls and other access restrictions—and copied the Publishers’ articles, stories, and other original works onto their own servers without authorization,” the complaint states. The publishers also described the AI boom as a “death knell for local journalism” if AI companies that scrape content for free are not held accountable. Former New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Platkin and his law firm, Platkin LLP, are representing the publishers. “Our models empower innovation, are trained on publicly available data, and are grounded in fair use,” OpenAI spokesperson Drew Pusateri told Bloomberg. This is not the first lawsuit involving the unauthorized use of publishers’ content by AI firms, but it is one of the largest coalitions ever formed against the free use of content by AI chatbots. In 2024, OpenAI and Microsoft also faced a similar lawsuit from eight newspapers that claimed AI products were benefiting from their content without permission.
