Supergirl Flash hugBest Episode: “Worlds Finest”

The Best Episode “winner” for Supergirl Season 1 took the top spot by only one vote; that’s how close it was.

Which episode was the victor?

At 33%, the #1 choice for Best Episode of Supergirl Season 1 was “Worlds Finest,” the story in which Barry Allen from The Flash guest starred, some villains teamed up, ice cream was to be had, and Cat Grant had all of the best lines. “Worlds Finest” had a lot of what makes Supergirl a special series wrapped within, and if you have a friend who’s considering watching the show before they move to The CW on October 10, this is a good one to make them see.

Falling Supergirl Melissa BenoistComing in at #2 was the episode that at the time, KryptonSite reviewer Louis Rabinowitz referred to it as “an episode that stands tall as the best episode of Supergirl thus far” – that would be “Falling.” Red Kryptonite episodes were always among the best episodes of Smallville, and that tradition continues with a really good story on Supergirl. Melissa Benoist was able to show off some great range and talent, and it’s so much fun to see Kara, even temporarily, as a mean girl. The placement of the episode was also good, because it forced many of Kara’s relationships in the series to change for a little while leading to the Flash crossover.

#3 was “For The Girl Who Has Everything,” the otherworldly homage to the classic Alan Moore comic book story.

    For the “Worst Episode” I think I voted for the 2nd episode because looking back the Pilot got me into the series but it got better around the 4th or 5th episode so I couldn’t pick anything after those episodes so I only had two episodes to choose from episode 2 or 3.

    For best guest star I voted for Italia Ricci because I liked here character as a villain.
