CBS passing Supergirl to The CW was a big move, and its nice to know that Supergirl may still have had a future even if the deal had not worked out with The CW.
The renewal feels an awful lot like a last-minute Hail Mary that The CW happened to catch, so its hard not to wonder what would have happened if Supergirl hadnt found a new home.
Luckily, we finally found out whether or not Kara would be back when news came out that Supergirl would indeed be getting a second season on The CW.
Those numbers werent high enough for renewal to be a sure thing on CBS, but theyd be fantastic for The CW.
