Favorite Actor (Series Regular): Chyler Leigh
Enough kind things can’t be said about the performance Chyler Leigh gave in Season 2 of Supergirl as a young woman finally realizing things about herself. Alex became a positive inspiration to young people who might be struggling with their own selves at times, and seeing Alex fall in love – even the painful parts – was a joy that Chyler brought us along for. 49% of those who voted picked her as their favorite Supergirl Season 2 series regular.
The super Melissa Benoist came in second place with 21% of the vote and Chris Wood (Mon-El) was #3 with 15%.
Last Year’s Winner: Melissa Benoist

Wow what can I say about Supergirl! At first I didn’t really watch it! But when I show Ms.Alex and Ms.Maggie I was so into Supergirl. I am a lesbian I they showed me real love! Like they know what love is! And I love Supergirl number 1 fan by the way! I babysit and now I have those three girls watching Supergirl! Everyone on Supergirl is cool and they love each other company! That is why I have been buying posters! So I know we can’t wait for season 3 Supergirl go kick some ass! I love everyone on the show ever change o.k.!

Something is clearly wrong with the fans. No way Alex was the best episode and the Mxyzptlk episode was written by a Supergirl comics writer.
