Reasons I watch Supergirl S1 vs S2

 

Season 1

 

  • Power to the girls
  • Actual feminism
  • About women, for women
  • Alex Danvers
  • Friendship, and family bonds
  • Danvers Sisters
  • Cat Grant
  • The zero need for Superman
  • James and Winn being respectful supportive guys, who are proud to be around powerful women
  • Space Dad

Season 2

 

  • Alex Danvers
  • Maggie Sawyer
  • Sanvers
  • M’gann M’orzz

 

 

 

Season 2 destroyed Kara’s character, shifted the protagonism to a useless dude, the story telling dropped in quality, feminism was non existent, power to the girls shit on, demographic shifted from women of all identities and backgrounds in s1 to comic fanboys in s2.

That shift alienates most season 1 fans, and ponders to the alpha male archetype of cis-het white dude.

 

The changes in demographic are most prominent at the promo pictures. While Season 1 was focusing on Kara’s face the most and her overall posture as a powerful hero, the season 2 promos focus on her bust, and legs, to ponder to the male gaze.
