I kind of lost track of Supergirl for awhile there. I was still watching it, but the initial rush of excitement was gone, and I was only half paying attention when I watched the episodes and then forgot about them.
But this week's episode--Number 14, "Solitude"--got my attention with the new villain, Indigo, played by Laura Vandevoort. If you don't know who she is, then (1) she played Supergirl in Smallville a few years back and (2) you should definitely do an image search.
One of the super-cool things about Supergirl is the way they've brought back a number of past Superman Family actors in new roles in the show. Let's see . . . Helen Slater (movie Supergirl 1984) as Supergirl's mom, Dean Cain (Clark Kent / Superman in Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman TV Series 1993 - 1997) as Supergirl's dad (hey, wait a minute . . . that's kind of incestuous, isn't it? They're cousins!), and now Laura Vandervoort (Kara / Supergirl from Smallville TV Series 2007 - 2011). And they also gave us Lynda Carter (Diana Prince / Wonder Women in Wonder Women TV series 1975 - 1979) as President Olivia Marsden. Now where the hell is Tom Welling?
