    Supergirl (2026): A Missed Opportunity

    Scene N Nerd returns with a raw, unfiltered breakdown of Supergirl, and we're not holding back. Sarah and Will went in ready to love this and came out feeling one thing: disappointment. This wasn't just a misfire. You can feel a disconnect in every frame. The script was watered down. The source material was gutted. Milly Alcock and the cast deserved better. Jason Momoa's Lobo just looked like… Jason Momoa in makeup.  We break down where it all went wrong, and whether James Gunn's DCU can course-correct from here. Want to keep the conversation going?
