Greta Gerwig made a film that was critically acclaimed, culturally impactful, hilarious, unique, visually exceptional, perfectly cast and acted, left people laughing, crying and thinking AND made a billion dollars at the box office. But no Best Director nom?! #Barbie #Oscars2024

The real MVP is Alycia Debnam-Carey being willing to come back as Lexa for not just one, but two key scenes. Extended scenes, no less. Some people love their fans and understand what certain roles mean to them. Some people GET it. Cherish those actors. #The100

I've rarely seen somebody have as big of an impact on such a 'small'-ish show as Lena Luthor did on SGCW. One of the most multi-dimensional and beloved characters. Rivaled in fan and media popularity only by the lead herself, who ALSO loved her and embraced her power. Iconic.

It’s genuinely amazing how there can be no Lena nor Supercorp in an episode and still have so much that connects to both. They’ve either accidentally (?) written one of the deepest love stories in TV, or it’s all on purpose. And the fact we can’t tell which (yet) is... tiresome.

The irony: I’ve seen Supercorp fanfics where fans literally duplicate scenes, pulled verbatim from the show, but then add in a love confession or kiss or hookup at the very end. And it completely fits, with very little added. B/c the show itself has laid a ROMANTIC foundation.
