Hello everyone and welcome to another edition of Supergirl catchup, this time looking at 3×19, The Fanatical. We saw the weird Krypton cult make a comeback which was thine, but it felt like something to fill time while they had Reign but didn’t want to really progress that part of the story. Supergirl continued to frustrate me throughout which has really hampered my enjoyment of the show recently. I don’t want to give up on it though as I have really enjoyed the show until recently. Her whole holier-than-thou attitude really needs to change though as I really can’t be doing with it to this extent.

James therefore wasn’t actually the worst part of the episode as one of his (many) speeches actually made me feel quite emotional. I connected to him and it made me hate him a bit less. Why did it take almost three seasons to do that? Plus his secret Guardian vault in the lift was pretty cool too. Keep up the good work Olsen.

Ruby came round rather than wallowing by the end of the episode and I really enjoyed the scenes between her and Jonn’s father. They formed a bond and helped each other which really bought a smile to my face. It was a pairing which I never considered but it worked ever so well…and she got to meet a martian which has to be on quite a few people’s bucket lists. We saw the attempted creation of another World Killer alongside Ruby worrying that she will become like her mother: could this be foreshadowing? Could we potentially see Reign try and turn her “daughter” into a World Killer just like her? There are worse and more boring ways to take the story…

Will it happen though? I guess I’ll just have to keep watching to find out.
