Critic reviews for Star-Crossed
Supergirl had a fairly rough week, with an episode that didn't take full advantage of two key new characters.
Hopefully next season some of these crossovers will actually happen on Supergirl.
Ultimately, the episode works because this cast is really, really strong. Melissa Benoist is cranked up to 11 for almost the whole thing - bubbly without being twee, determined, but believably hurt.
Another episode where Supergirl took the back seat on her own show. Whatever the opposite of I'm Here For It is, I'm exactly the opposite for all this dull romance drama.
One thing I'm sure of: We need more Hatcher and Sorbo.
This episode adds yet another twist to that CW genre tone: A healthy dose of '90s flair.
