MOS 09 – S1E09 – Blood Binds Baleful Blondes

Welcome to the Maid of Steel podcast! We are a podcast dedicated to the CBS Television series Supergirl and in this installment of the podcast we are covering season 1 episode 9, “Blood Bonds”, which originally aired on January 4, 2016.

As much as I like to joke that this is the first episode back from the winter hiatus—because what is more fun than getting the Scarlet Cougar’s blood boiling?—this really was the most manageable hiatus for a television show in my memory. The cliffhanger from episode 8, in which we see the allusion to Supergirl going up against Non, left us wondering what kind of a disastrous fallout would ensue when the show came back in the new year.

MOS 08 – S1E08 – Cat’s Out Of The Bag

The cat’s out of the bag, in more than one way, by the end of the Supergirl winter finale! Season 1 Episode 8, Hostile Takeover, originally aired on December 14, 2015 and is the final episode of this year. Luckily, we only have to wait until January 4 before seeing the results of all the secrets that came out in this episode. Cat’s personal life, Astra’s mission on earth, and Kara’s identity are all brought to the surface, each bearing very different resolutions and very different consequences.

MOS 07 – S1E7 – Earthquakes and Earthlings

MOS 07 – S1E7 – Earthquakes and Earthlings

How often it feels like the one day we are without something is the day we need it the most? Not long ago, the battery in my car died… So I worked from home while my wonderful dad went out and got me a new battery and replaced it! My point is, the one day my car doesn’t start is also the day several people who do not have cars ask me if I’m available to give them a lift. It’s the subtle ironies in life that keep it interesting, right? And the one day that Kara says, “The world can go without Supergirl for one day….” is the day the world ends up needing her the most.

In this installment of the Maid of Steel podcast, Karen and I discuss season 1 episode 7, “Human for a Day.” The episode originally aired on December 7, 2015. A guest star of note was the man under the hood of Jemm, Charles Halford, whom Constantine fans, like Karen, will recognize as Chas Chandler! We really enjoyed the use of this obscure D.C. Comics character, and hope you did too! Read more…

MOS 05 – S1E5 – Adventures in Babysitting

Hello and welcome back to the Maid of Steel podcast! We are a podcast dedicated to the CBS television series Supergirl. This week, Karen is unable to join me, Emilee, and in her stead we recruited Michael to fill in!

MOS 04 – S1E5 – Mommy Issues

MOS 04 – S1E5 – Mommy Issues

Hello and welcome back to Maid of Steel! We are a podcast dedicated to the CBS television series Supergirl and this week we are talking about the episode entitled “Livewire” which originally aired on Monday November 16, 2015. If you were slightly confused by the content in this episode, it bears noting that in light of the tragedies suffered by Paris and Beirut, CBS chose to replace the originally scheduled episode, “How Does She Do It?” with this one due to thematic elements that may appear insensitive.

As it is still the first season of this show, wink wink, most of the show elements are not mission-critical. Even if they were critical, I fully support and respect the decision CBS made and our thoughts and prayers go out to the cities and citizens affected by these blatant acts of terror.Read more…
