CBS unveiled several trailers for their new Fall shows. Two of which might interest genre fans. Supergirl, which follows the cousin of Metropolis’ most famous son. The other is Limitless, a spin-off of the 2011 Bradley Cooper film of the same name.

90% of the Supergirl trailer feels like a parody– but the ending shows some potential.
Also– do we need to watch the first ep after that trailer? It pretty much shows us everything.
It’s more of a first-look. I think it’s what the networks show to local affiliates and advertisers to get them excited about the coming season.
I will undoubtedly watch Supergirl, but I’m not holding out much hope for its longevity based on the preview. I hope there is much more to it than that but at least it looks (mostly) fun.
Limitless looks good also. I enjoyed the movie, may give the series a try and see how it goes. Seems like a decent premise for a show, but time will tell.
