While I do like this show, this episode is okay, but has many problems. While it has a good story that teaches Supergirl not to go for glory, the problem here is she is ignored by the crowd. Why, because of Superman.
Yes, Superman, the man of steel, makes his debut here, and sadly, the writers messed him up horribly. Instead of the noble hero who fights for truth, justice, and the American Way, DC Super Hero Girls 2019 (as I will call this) basically reduces the hero to a superjerk who has let the glory and attention inflate his ego way too much, and the people of Metropolis treat him like their lord and savior to the point where he takes credit for Supergirl saving the world. I can understand Hal Jordan being scared of Star Sapphire (since she's obsessive to the point where she wants to force him to date her again), but what they did to Superman is unforgivable. Lauren Faust, if you are reading this, you need to make an episode where he accepts Supergirl as a heroine and stop making him act like a jerk to her or other heroes.
