Stargirl

Video isn't working for me either. Is this the one?

The video you linked was removed apparently

Most of the Stargirl teaser trailers have been removed, guess they don't want us to see it...
Though it wasn't really anything special, they showed what I'm guessing are the main characters standing in front of school lockers and then we get to see Stargirl in the costume and that was it. No one is missing anything great by not seeing the trailer.

Star girl is going to m air a cameo appearance during Crisis. Plus, all episodes of Star girl will air on the CD the same week they first stream on DC Universe.

This looks like it's going to be fun!

I like the bare mid riff.
Never thought i'd see something like that in a CW show in 2020.
Maybe somebody over there "gets" it.

CW has been trying to expand from their target audience of the past, which they claimed was mostly postfeminist young females. They now include young males. Latest surveys say they are pretty close to 50:50 female:male viewers now, which is a HUGE change from the turn of the century. Most of that is due to their change in focus toward SciFi and Superheroes. 

I'm sure a bare midriff isn't going to cause rioting in the streets by CW viewers, although I suppose it's a risk. 

Personally, my hopes all rest on Amazon Prime, Netflix, Apple+ and Disney+, who at least embrace Gen-Xers.

Give me Expanse, some of the new Apple+ shows and anything that originated with Tolkien, and some Star Wars spinoffs, and I'm happy. And don't forget Season Two of The Boys which just wrapped up filming. That is a fun show which we'd never have seen if Bezos wasn't personally such a fan of many of the same things we are. With Expanse, The Boys and a huge Tolkien series coming, Bezos is my SF/Fantasy entertainment hero.

OMIGOSH!
Is that bare thighs?
Is she wearing shorts!

Don't worry, she will be wearing pants and an overcoat by episode 7 lol

Still, I must confess, I will be checking this out.  Can't be worse then Batwoman

I'm with you Shadar, so looking forward to the streaming services upcoming productions.  Can't wait for The Expanse (one of the best shows I've seen, not just in the sci-fi genre).  And also Amazon's Tolkien productions.

Peace.

I have hope - I have hope. Maybe they will get back to the early Flash formula I seemed to like so much with this one with a focus on the core hero and the modest size family and support unit around them.

I'm confident they'll get Geoff Johns sister right. A character of her own.

Flash is his own character. With his own stories, concepts and what they say one of "richest" (weirdest) rogues gallery in comics. Far different from Supergirl, Batwoman and even Green Arrow. A hurdle their writers has never or evened tried to overcome.

Stargirl doesn't have any of those. All she has is the basic foundation of a good girl trying to do the right thing. I hope it's enough but deep down I know it isn't. Time will tell if they're creative enough to overcome this.

The top poster shows two young women with bare mid riffs and bare thighs on a CW show made in 2020.
All three women featured look very feminine.

I still can't believe it.

Possibly as predicted an official trailer is vastly different without any hint of possible superpowers 

The 2019 Disney Stargirl is a wholesome family friendly film

Looks like Disney Stargirl  and CW/DC Universe Stargirl are different
A trailer with superpowers

Tbh, that actually looks pretty decent

Certainly a million times better then Batwoman, and much more fun then Supergirl lol  

Looking forward to giving it a try when its out

Peace.

Anybody watch this?  Thumbs up?  Down?

It was a pretty good start to the series, establishing several of the main characters(mainly Courtney and Pat) and their relationships. A bit heavy on the teen drama, but that's to be expected from a CW show. Plus, it's true to the original Stars & S.T.R.I.P.E. comic, where Courtney was portrayed as being very resentful of her mother's marriage and the move from LA to Nebraska. Hell, the show lightened her up a bit, because she was a bit of a brat early in the comic. Here she's more tolerable. Of course, with her creator Geoff Johns as a producer, he's not going to let them screw around with a deeply personal character(Courtney was modeled after Johns' sister, who had died when TWA Flight 800 went down in '96). On top of that, it established that she's got a background in gymnastics and martial arts, so her growing skills when she suits up won't be too far out of the blue. We were also introduced to several supporting characters who will become heroes and villains in their own rights. And points to Luke Wilson and Amy Smart for their portrayals of Pat Dugan and Barbara Whitmore-Dugan. 

All told, like I said, it's a good start that ended on a nice cliffhanger and I look forward to seeing where it goes from here. 

Haven't seen it yet.  I'm waiting for a few episodes to air before I dive in.

Want to give it a fair shot.

Peace.
