Supergirl & The Flash Score High Ratings

Last night saw The Flash and Supergirl air on CBS, which drew in some pretty good numbers.

The episode gave Supergirl its best rating since early February with 7.24 million viewers tuning in, which is up from the previous episode of 6 million.

The 7 million viewers is also almost more than two times what The Flash on the CW normal sees (around 4 million).

Supergirl also beat Fox’s Gotham, as the two air at the same time, with Gotham netting 4.78 million.

The episode was a bit corny for my taste (poor choice in villains, and I could do without the Kara and Jimmy Olsen romance), but seeing Supergirl and The Flash on screen together was pretty cool. Grant Gustin and Melissa Benoist have some good on screen chemistry.

More than likely with the ratings success, this will mean further crossovers down the line with Supergirl, Flash, Arrow and DC’s Legends Of Tomorrow, which Gustin said was the plan.

Update: CBS released the following official announcement:

 

“SUPERGIRL” SOARS WITH “THE FLASH” CROSSOVER

“Supergirl” Leaps +31% in Adults 18-49 to a Seven-Week High and Increases +21% in Viewers

Tops All Monday Scripted Programs in Adults 18-49

 

SUPERGIRL delivered its biggest adults 18-49 rating in seven weeks and its largest audience in five weeks with last night’s “The Flash” crossover episode, according to Nielsen preliminary live plus same day ratings for Monday, March 28.

In adults 18-49, SUPERGIRL averaged a seven-week high of 1.7, a +31% jump from a week ago. In viewers, the crossover episode averaged 7.24 million viewers, up +21% from last week and delivering its largest audience in five weeks.

SUPERGIRL was Monday’s highest-rated scripted series in adults 18-49.

Kreisberg added: “We’re going to do it, we’ll just do it next year.”  

Berlanti then revealed Lynda Carter’s role: “All right, she’s the female president of the United States.”

10 Supergirl & The Flash Spoiler Details

Monday, March 28th at 8pm ET on CBS sees the highly anticipated crossover air for Supergirl and The Flash.

Below you can check out some details from the episode as Entertainment Weekly offered up some tidbits. Promos and preview images for the episode are also included below.

Spoiler warning is in effect.

• The crossover will be referenced on the April 5th episode of The Flash, but only literally for a flash as Barry disappears for a second in his world, but ends up for an entire day in the world of Supergirl.

• Supergirl and The Flash exist in parallel universes where they haven’t heard of each other’s characters, meaning Supergirl doesn’t exist in The Flash universe and vice versa: “Supergirl has never heard of The Flash and Flash has never heard of Supergirl, so there’s a lot of like, ‘Wait, you’re the who, now?’ ” says Kreisberg.

• It’s said since Arrow and The Flash have never referenced Metropolis or Superman because Superman doesn’t exist in the Arrow and Flash universe (probably Batman, too): “If Supergirl and Flash were existing in the same universe, then why has no one on Flash or Arrow ever talked about Metropolis or the fact that there’s a Superman?” Kreisberg points out. “The one explanation for that is because he doesn’t exist in that world.”

• Barry crosses over into the Supergirl universe through use of the tachyon device he has been creating to help take down Zoom.

• It will be a fun and lighter episode, and The Flash and Supergirl are quick to trust each other.

• Barry helps teach Kara about being a superhero; likewise, helping Supergirl helps Barry gain the confidence he needs to fight Zoom back in Central City.

• Winn thinks the idea of a multiverse is cool; Jimmy Olsen feels as if Barry is a little bit of competition; Barry is intimidated by Cat.

• Live Wire and Silver Banshee are the villains.

• There will be race between Supergirl and The Flash.

It’s hoped this leads into one big crossover with the other DC shows.

“Worlds Finest” episode synopsis:

Kara gains a new ally when the lightning-fast superhero The Flash (Grant Gustin) suddenly appears from an alternate universe and helps Kara battle Siobhan, aka Silver Banshee, and Livewire in exchange for her help in finding a way to return him home.

Grant Gustin Hints At Mega Crossover: Flash, Supergirl, Arrow & DC’s Legends Of Tomorrow

Monday, March 28th sees The Flash crossover into the world of Supergirl.

As we’ve already seen The Flash and Arrow together, as well as Arrow and Legends of Tomorrow, futher down the road it’s possible there could be one mega crossover between all four shows.

While speaking with EW.com, Grant Gustin mentions he is hoping it’s a possibility.

But viewers will get to watch Barry and Kara address an age-old question. Like The Flash and Superman before them in the comics, the two have a footrace to figure out who is faster. “It’s one of my favorite moments in this episode,” says Kreisberg. “It’s close.” Hopefully close enough that they’ll need a rematch next season, maybe with Green Arrow and the Legends as an audience. “That’s in the cards at this point,” says Gustin. “The whole point of us doing this crossover is setting up the fact that maybe next year we can cross over all of them.

Watch two teasers below for The Flash and Supergirl episode “Worlds Finest.”

Kara gains a new ally when the lightning-fast superhero The Flash (Grant Gustin) suddenly appears from an alternate universe and helps Kara battle Siobhan, aka Silver Banshee, and Livewire in exchange for her help in finding a way to return him home.

Melissa Benoist Wants Batgirl In Supergirl

Batgirl seems to be a hot commodity right now as the character is rumored for Batman vs. Superman, and anything related to Batman seems to turn into gold.

While participating in a fan Q&A on Facebook, Melissa Benoist is asked about the potential for Batgirl to appear on Supergirl, in which Benoist offers her possible theory how they could make the character work on the show. You can watch the full Q&A video below.

“Chyler Leigh who plays Alex on the show, her and I actually, we kind of have a theory that perhaps, and this is just us, we are not the authority on this, but we think that Alex could make a really good Batgirl. She’s got all the gear and the gadgets and the D.E.O to make her a really good Batgirl.”

Batgirl and Supergirl are featured together for DC Super Hero Girls.

Supergirl airs Mondays at 8pm ET on CBS.

Supergirl & The Flash Share Same Easter Egg

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:24551:]]

Last night’s episode of Supergirl happened to feature a cool DC Easter Egg as a Legion Flight Ring was featured.

Now where did we see that before?

We saw the Legion Flight Ring on The Flash a couple episodes ago when Barry went through the portal to Earth-2, which also happened to feature Supergirl.

Coincidence?

Nope. We see the rings and images are exactly the same from both episodes (see below).

The Flash is scheduled to crossover on Supergirl on Monday, March 28th with the episode titled “Worlds Finest.” 

“Supergirl” airs Mondays on CBS at 8pm ET; “The Flash” airs Tuesdays at 8pm ET on the CW.

Arrow’s Stephen Amell Wants To Appear On Supergirl

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:24465:]]

With Grant Gustin appearing as The Flash in an upcoming episode of Supergirl, it makes sense to have the face of DC appear some time as well.

While speaking with IGN, Arrow‘s Stephen Amell mentions he wouldn’t mind appearing on Supergirl.

Sure! In this iteration of the DC Universe, the “Television Universe” as it were, I’m the guy that’s been around the longest, so I always feel — whether I’m on a show or I’m not on a show — I always feel as though I can in some way, shape or form represent them, and I always want them to be wildly successful and last for many more years than we end up lasting, because I just want to see people have success. So I would love to go over to Supergirl. That would be a blast, if for no other reason than I miss shooting in Los Angeles. [Laughs]

Lobo Teased In New Supergirl Promo

Alex Danvers question if its an international bounty hunter, with the Martian Manhunter replying, “No. We would know if he was in town.”

Lobo seems a bit much for this series, but maybe with the success of Deadpool, WB would green light a rated-R Lobo movie? Dwayne Johnson was at one time circling Lobo and the latest saw Danny Trejo seemingly vye for the role.

Supergirl does battle with the deadly Master Jailer (Jeff Branson), who is hunting and executing escaped Fort Rozz prisoners.

Tom Welling Doesn’t Think His Superman Exists In Supergirl Universe

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:24319:]]

The last couple of weeks have seen talk about Smallville‘s Tom Welling potentially appearing on the new CBS Supergirl TV series.

While nothing official has been taking place (at least that we know of), that hasn’t stopped fans speculating about the possibility, which on more than one occasion has reached former super ears of Welling.

Welling previously offered at first he felt it might be odd to reprise as Superman for Supergirl, and most recently stated if given the opportunity, he would need a little notice to fit into the tights.

Now in an interview with BirthMoviesDeath, Tom Welling says he doesn’t think Smallville exists in the same universe as Supergirl.

“I do enjoy it. It’s got a different angle, a more comedic angle, of course. It’s telling the story in a different way, and I don’t think it’s a world that I ever existed in with Clark because they’re two different shows. There’s really nothing in common, there are no parallels at all. I say that being a fan of what they’re doing. I think they’re doing a great job.”

Tom Welling does go on to note he feels the success of Smallville and the people that worked on the series is in part responsible for the current DC TV universe of Supergirl, Flash and Arrow with specific mention of Glen Winter.

You know, the success of Smallville is directly correlated to The Flash or Arrow – that genre that Warner Bros has been able to do. I do feel proud that it started with us, but it wasn’t just because of us. I think technology and timing – we were suddenly able to do things in television that were, until then, only available in film because of how expensive they were. So we were lucky to be able to have that timing. A lot of the people who worked on Smallville, it’s a lot of the same crew on Supernatural, The Flash, Arrow. Glen Winter is now the god that we all knew he was, and it all started with Smallville. He’s a genius, and he’s earned everything that he has. He’s so creative, and such a great guy. Glen Winter is somebody who hasn’t been singled out yet by anyone, but if you look at what he did on Smallville and then Flash and Arrow, he’s the throughline.”

While Welling’s Smallville may not be a part of Supergirl, that doesn’t necessarily mean the actor can’t be a part of the universe. Just this past week saw confirmation of the DC multiverse on The Flash (check out all the Easter Eggs), so it’s possible Tom Welling could always appear on Supergirl as another character (how about Zod?).
