This Supergirl article contains spoilers for Season 6, Episode 5, “Prom Night!”
Supergirl Season 6 Episode 5
Supergirl’s first trip to Midvale back in season 3 was an incredibly special episode, a moody mix of winding roads and the sense of home, taking inspiration from Smallville and Veronica Mars, while giving viewers an insightful look at a true moment of growth for the Danvers sisters that also offered perspective on where they were in their modern continuity. For the final season’s return, take all those expectations and add in the promise of a young Cat Grant and two episodes to build the story. While the somewhat inaccurately named “Prom Night!” is only the first of those two episodes, unfortunately so far it doesn’t quite measure up.
The biggest hurdle for both our heroes and the tonal beauty of the previous escape to Midvale are a pair of extraterrestrial villains. Like something out...

Jessica Queller knows exactly what she’d like to see
As “Supergirl” nears the halfway point of its sixth and final season, fans are preparing to officially say goodbye to their favorite characters. But some are still holding out some hopes for any spin-off series — including “Supergirl” showrunner Jessica Queller.
In a conversation with TheWrap, co-showrunner Robert Rovner said there are no conversations regarding a spin-off show happening so far — but that doesn’t mean they aren’t open to it. “I wish!” Queller said with a laugh. “Call the bosses!”
And, if the call gets made, Queller knows exactly who she’d like to see in a spin-off. “I’m really attached to the Midvale girls, to the flashback episodes [with] young Kara and young Alex and young Cat Grant. I think that would be a great spin-off,” she said.
