Just watched the Supergirl trailer again. Melissa Benoist really fucking kills it. Even though I feel like I’ve seen all of the first episode, I don’t care. I’ll still watch it.

That transition from goofy awkwardness to increasing assuredness is really hard, and she manages it in a trailer. That’s impressive.

The show kind of reminds me of Tina Fey’s new show, if Kimmy Schmidt had superpowers. Hooray for the return of sincerity, and for women on TV.

I probably identify with stories like that more than most because that is in fact the story of my life. I was a really really awkward, gawky, weird misfit and I turned out pretty okay.

Still can’t fly, though. I’m working on that.
