The CW's 'Supergirl' Cast Musical Recap of Season 2 | Comic-Con 2017 | MTV 

'We have the insanely entertaining cast of Supergirl' Almost Everyone: Whooooo! Katie: Hi

KATIE IS LEGIT SO CLASSY REGARDING SUPERCORP, THAT'S MY GIRL

i love katie mcgrath we don't deserve her

100% Chyler would've said something if she were here. But I'm glad she's spending time with her family during such a difficult time.

I love how Katie is like, "I've been around the block a few times." She just seems miles more mature then the majority of the cast.

I hated this interview but Katie is still there trying to explain that there is nothing wrong by supporting Supercorp,, she knows how much we care about it. she cares so much about us

For all of you new Katie McGrath fans, she's always been this woke. When she was on the show Merlin, and everyone shipped Merthur, she said basically the same thing she says here, that fans can take whatever they want out of it and we shouldn't deny them. This was 6 years ago. She's an angel, and the only reason I will continue watching this show.

"I done a lot of shows where's there's a clear undertone with two female characters" *Merlin's intro starts playing in the background*

Holy sh*t, Katie saved their asses so hard at 7:18 - 7:35

I like how Katie is low-key saving everyone's ass

Katie McGrath, our true ally

So now we know that the Supergirl cast should not be allowed anywhere without Flo and Chy, even though Katie did a good job at trying to save everyone's asses before Chris ruined it again... They didn't even mention Alex or Maggie in the recap, you know the actual/canon lgbtq+ representation on the show...

I wish Chyler was there too. I would have loved to see her scold and just clapback in response to the guys

Please save Katie McGrath from this shitshow

this video kinda confirms that katie is our only supercorp wingwoman

Wow I really appreciate how they completely forgot to mention Alex or Maggie during their "recap" (please note sarcasm)

Last year I wrote a comment about them not giving a microphone to the most intelligent and well spoken person in the room (Chyler). This year, they managed to do it again with Katie...

"I feel like I'm gonna get destroyed for what I just did" WELL YOU RIGHT JEREMY YOU RIGHT

And let's be real if Lena was a male character there would already be a love triangle with a bunch of stupid drama and sexual tension

Well everyone here is fighting about Karamel and Supercorp and I'm standing here and all I want is more scenes with Kara and Miss. Grant😂

Okay supercorp shippers already knew this would never become canon, but for them to do this?? I just lost so much respect....

omg that is disgusting the fact that katie was the only one that tryed to defend the fandom while the others were making jokes about it just make me love her more

katie trying to lowkey turning it around and chris making a fucking stupid joke lmao

KATIE MCGRATH DESERVES BETTER

I LOVE KATIE SO MUCH SHE VALIDATES US I LOVE HER

I feel sorry for Katie, I mean look at her face she seems so uncomfortable

Katie is so great

Why are they talking about sexuality when they're all straight.... big silence

....do these actors not understand what shipping is? Most Supercorp fans KNOW it won't ever happen. thats not the point. some of the most popular fictional pairings aren't canon in the source material. fans don't care. they ship anyway and i admire them for maintaining pairings with little to no content. There's not a huge amount of wlw pairing on tv so sometimes the fans have to imagine there is. can't the cast AT LEAST let them have that??

9:10 "It's fine... I just want my broccoli..." - Katie McGrath

God I am so in love with Katie McGrath....I just want my broccoli 😂❤️❤️

gotta love that homophobia. bless katie for being the only open minded educated person there

Katie is so pure. Bless her soul. To the rest of the cast who were making a fool of themselves, please be educated into the fact that you are public figures and what you say and do creates an impact on a vast majority of the people who support, or did support you.

6:25 "I feel like I'm gonna get destroyed for what I just did..." I just..... oh.... oh honey....... yeah. yeah you could say that.

Katie's face during the entire time is everything

It's interesting that Katie says she didn't see an obvious undertone between the two females characters of Lena and Kara, and yet she's the one that when acting as Lena looks intensely at Kara, with the lip-biting and all. Her character doesn't look that intensely at anyone else. But I did like what she had to say in this interview, it was nice.

1:41 i'm straight but this wasn't nice at all!! like saying once was enough he didn't have to go so hard! bruh sorry the supercorp shippers got slammed :( and laughed at

What if a little gay kid that loves supergirl and the cast and Lena and kara, and they see this video of their idols screaming about how Lena and kara is invalid and the rest are laughing at it. Edit: I'm NOT saying that the show has NO representation. I'm talking about the way the actors behave. Different people have different reactions and sensitivity to the actions of others, just cause you aren't affected does not mean that the person beside you is the same. What I'm talking about is the behaviour of actual, living people and not what the show represents.

I am obsessed with Katie McGrath. I'm in the LGBTQ+ community and I love that she validates her fans. But to those saying she's the only one, Melissa yells "GIRLFRIENDS" in 1:38. I think Melissa is a silent supporter

They forgot Alex existed as a character in the song... rude.

Jesus. Imagine hating your lgbt fan base this much...

this interview convinces me they only started a relationship between lena and james to destroy supercorp lmao

Katie you are my hero.

7:01 if u wanna skip to Katie!!

“When a person tells you that you hurt them, you don’t get to decide that you didn’t.” - Louis C.K. For whole two days I am jumping from Tumblr to Twitter to RU-vid to look for comments and reactions on this... I do not understand how the cast that was interacting in the song (minus Katie and Odetta) still have not apologize and just search for excuses for their behavior

WHEN THEY LET KATIE SPEAK SHE FLIES AWAY UP AND OUT OF THIS SHIT STORM GOD BLESS HER

I might be one of the rare few, but as a bisexual woman who totally ships Supercorp, I didn't find this offensive at all. They were having fun creating a musical recap of the show, and in their high spirits, might have gotten a bit carried away, but that was all it was for me. And to be honest, I think it's actually good that they're not queer baiting by leading fans on with a "Will they, won't they?" type thing. Melissa and Katie also got more serious about it later on, and when Katie gave that really beautiful and thoughtful answer as people have pointed out, you can hear Melissa verbally agreeing to it with a definitive "Yup." If Chyler and Floriana had been there, they might've also had more to contribute to the subject and kept the conversation more grounded since they're more involved with the LGBTQIA+ community, but unfortunately they weren't. Regardless, anyone who has followed the cast of Supergirl knows that they're all beautiful souls with big hearts and they love their fans, whoever one might choose to ship, so I don't think they deserve all this negativity they're getting over this one interview.

katie sweetie i am SO sorry

From this video, we can differentiate the boys from men...

welp. at least I have Katie and Chyler

Can we just free Katie like just let her be free let's not drag her down with this shit storm #freekatie

we knew it was never gonna be canon but to drag it this hard? jeez well thats overdoing it like its a good ship let us ship in our corner of tumblr with our fanfics and fan art you don't have to fucking yell

This confirms Katie is our SuperCorp wingwoman or something

There is this wonderful interview/gif of Mark Hamil responding on a similar situation when a young male fan asked him if Luke Skywalker could be gay. This poor kid was apparently having a very tough time with his sexuality and found something in a character that he thought he could relate to. And Mark's answer to this kid was the epitome of what professionalism and responding to fandom should be about. This mocking, snarky song regarding Supercorp is the exact opposite of professionalism and understanding that Mark displayed. And this SG cast wasn't even prompted to bring up Supercorp at all. Like, they had no reason to even do it, but you can't help but feel like they definitely had an desire to undercut a part of the fandom that sees something in characters that they don't necessarily see. And it doesn't even matter how the actors may personally perceive it, it is how they handle themselves in a public space/fandom space that is very telling about their character.

I aspire to be someone as mature as Katie, She could not have said anything but she did. #therealsuperhero

As an actual lesbian, I find the hate comments way more insulting than what the cast was saying. Leave the cast alone. If you feel offended, then that’s your issue. I say this because (as hard as us fans wish it) SuperCorp will never happen. It is not canon. Also, the Daxamites know not of their corruption. Hence all the partying. So, can we just call down? The cast was not making fun of lesbians in general. If a fictional non-canon ship offends you when it’s attacked....then you probably need help. Just saying. This show has a cast who works hard. And they’ve gone through so much hate. As a group they experianced death threats. If a cast can stick together through all that shit.....then I’m going to be loyal to their show. Haters will hate. It’s sad but true. But I’m going to stand up for the cast, my LGBT community, and the logic of reality. It’s a show. My show. Their show. If our show offends you, then that really sucks. Because even if it stops making seasons, I’ll still be a fan.

istg if the made supercorp canon their ratings would go 📈📈📈 because a lot of people stopped watching cuz they keep forcing kara into relationships that have no chemistry.

i can't believe the level of unprofessionalism, incompetence and blatant homophobia

Disrespectful. Honestly, you can't go back from this anymore

Even though I’m full Karamel and not SuperCorp, I like that Katie says that like it’s whatever you take away from it. So its like you do you!

I miss Chy, she's funny for real, the rest of them, they're too much, it's kinda annoying.

hahah....okay we get it SUPERCORP cant happen geez.

This really was very embarrassing and felt insulting to watch. It isnt about them not being headcanon or anything. It was more about the way they mocked over it in that song. And the also how Mel was laughing so hard over it & Win singing it harshly. Its fine it not being a canon, the shippers have accepted it & are living in their fics and imagination. But such mature & talented actors, acting so childish. Really feeling disappointed and disheartened. Didn't expect so low from them here. Loved Katie, she is a pure sunshine ❤️

“Daxam, Daxam! We live in a cool place. You wanna have a good time? Come on over to my place!” Because slaves, misogyny and oppression is so much fun! This was disgusting. Don't even get me started with all the homophobia in that song and in these comments..... Edit: I find it hilarious that there are heterosexuals who will never experience homophobia or be able to fully understand how harmful this song was, telling me that my gay ass whom is currently living in a homophobic environment; doesn't have the right to say what is and isn't homophobic. There has quite literally been thousands of people from the LGBTQ+ community who aren't even fans of the show or supercorp shippers speaking up about how wrong the part about Kara and Lena is. News flash to you heterosexuals attacking me; if thousands of gay people are saying something is homophobic; IT. IS. HOMOPHOBIC. There are also people trying to justify Daxam and the song about it, but I'm honestly too disgusted to write about how wrong it is to be slave owner apologists

I really respect and support the lgbtq community... But what some of the people in the supercorp fanbase are just being so wierd in the comments. Like jeez, stop. They didn't mean to disrespect you guys. I don't understand how such a small phrase like "They are only friends" can trigger so much hatred and misunderstanding. Like bro. What if somebody shipped you with your best friend or co-worker? Idk about you, but I'd be pretty grossed out, no matter who that is. And the only thing that you can reply to that respectfully is that "we're just friends". I don't understand why Jeremy saying that makes it any different.

Supergirl was a great female superhero show when it was on CBS, and when it moved to the CW I was excited to see crossovers between their other DC TV shows. But then the second season was bittersweet because Kara became a background character in her own show to a misogynistic slave owner, but conversely Sanvers became a thing. Once Mon-El got kicked off of Earth I was really hopeful for Supercorp as well as Kara as a character since it seemed that she was back to her optimistic season one self. But now, not only do I feel less excited with speculation about Mon-El's return, but Floriana's disappearance from the main cast as well as the lack of Sanvers mention in this video angers me. And as a cast of a TV show who is literally only at Comic Con because of their fans, this cast sure does a great job of making them feel awful for having opinions about it. (Except you, Katie. You're doing great, sweetie.) A lot of their viewers came from the existence of LGBT+ representation, and the homophobic mockery, their absence of acknowledgement of the only canon LGBT ship, as well as shaming of such a big portion of fans is so disappointing and unprofessional.

Katie is to pure

Mel said “Girlfriends” first then Jeremy said JUST FRIENDS

you know what this felt like? sitting at lunch with my group of "friends" and them laughing their asses off because of some mean joke I didn't get and feeling so weird asking myself what the hell was I doing with these people. I swear, all those laughs bring such bad memories.

katie is the only respectful person in this video

Y'all do realize that was the most disrespectful thin ever

why they gotta be hating on #Supercorp jesus

Okay but did anyone else hear mel singing "a girlfriend!" around 1:39? Just noticed it and I'm dead lmao.

1:you can tell the cast was out of control. 2:katie saved everybody. 3:I can see why people are getting mad and asking for an explanation and I totally understand but I really like this show so don't cancle it this show brings me and my cousin together and we never get to see each other but when we do watch this and it makes us feel empowered and like a supergirl And I love that feeling Please dont cancle #thankskatie

well, that happened :/

The thing that bothers me about these comments is some people trying to brush off the people who speak out about the things that were disrespectful in this, you may not agree but listen to your argument, some people are trying to say things like "you're ignoring that they already have lgbt representation" as if we should excuse everything they do because they gave us one couple, as if we shouldn't complain because they gave us something, as if it's weird to ask for more, we got one couple that has been confirmed that next season, one half of the couple won't even be a season regular anymore I'm just disturbed that people are using this attitude of YOU'VE ALREADY GOT SOMETHING, STOP TRYING TO GET MORE as if we haven't had to deal with every hetero pairing they could fit in with always a possibility of more to come, also having to deal with the fact that even though we've accepted that there's a low chance of it actually happening(becoming canon), we're still not happy with what the show has done, most of us plainly don't like Mon-El as a character and would be perfectly content with Kara and James (which not to forget that they built that up to throw him to the side for a disrespectful white guy who got a pass for every bad thing he's ever said or did since "he's learning")(also add that little fact to the whole J'onn/M'gann thing where they built up something that would be great and then sent M'gann away) And to address the other excuse(the actors have all been attacked by supercorp fans): Stop assuming this entire fanbase is toxic, we're not, we can't help that there's terrible people in the fandom who blatantly disrespect the actors, most of us generally avoid those people (there's a whole group of people who are plain disrespectful who most of us do our best to avoid) and we don't support their behavior, stop thinking the majority is toxic, because actually a lot of them are just nice people providing to a fandom who support something they know have a low chance of actually becoming canon and they're really cool people and most of the toxic part of our fandom only shows through because of toxic karamel fans who rile them up and sometimes they can't just sit back and listen to people disregarding/disrespecting them (like some of the cast in this video) and then others use that to represent all of us, sorry for ranting, this subject just bothers me in how people think our fandom is toxic and don't even point out how other parts of the supergirl fandom are just as bad and sometimes worse, we just want to live in our fantasy world in peace instead of being put down by actors we looked up to, that's all, just take into consideration how you'd feel if people you looked up to made fun of something you were passionate about knowing that many people, not just you, love it, it hurts...

Okay so let's cancel supergirl and have a spinoff of Lena Luthor

When Jeremy said that it's never gonna happen it reminded me of the time that I was told that my best friend is never going to love me back.

Thank you, Kate, for being the only person with more than two functional brain cells in this video. Thanks for talking about a gay ship like any straight ship and not treat it as something weird . I appreciate you ❤

omg... lol I don't know if its because she has alot of experience with comic con from Merlin and understand how to just go with whatever comes in terms of shipping but... #katiemcgrathisneo she dodged shit like the matrix. she just kinda says to fans to ship whatever you like which is smart, noncommittal and always accepted by people. never alienate fans...come on guys you wanna have fun while drawing people in even if you don't agree. I don't think he was trying to be rude, he just either not thinking it through or was swinging for funny and didn't land for lots of people...idk

Okay, supergirl fandom: GET OFF YOUR HIGH HORSE! I'm bisexual. But I realize that the writers of the show don't owe us ANYTHING. Kara is STRAIGHT. It was literally established from the very FIRST episode when she told Winn "I'm not gay." I don't have an issue with people shipping supercorp. Do what you want to do. But when you start acting like it's disrespectful to add a love interest like Mon El, who is a flawed character, and has a character ark where he has to learn how to adjust to earth, much unlike the lifestyle he lived on daxam. If you don't like his character, okay. But again, saying it's misogynistic for the writers to add his character as a love interest is honestly just ignorant as to how writing works. They wanted a character who would be inferior to Kara in many ways so that she could make the transition of new rookie in season 1 to an experienced hero in season 2. Their romance forms through her mentorship of him. Thoughts on the video: THEY HAD FUN, OKAY! They decided to poke a little fun at the big phenomenon of supercorp shippers. It was a JOKE. I'm bisexual, again, I don't take any offense to this. Y'all seriously do need to take a joke about your own community and see your faults lol. I see people commenting on Chris Wood's Instagram to: "go choke and die" This is getting toxic if it were or already. In general, the supergirl fandom needs to learn that writers of tv shows don't owe them anything.They don't need to change a straight character gay. That would be a terrible storyline and terrible writing and would be unfortunate since Maggie and Alex's story has been handled so well. I love this show, and instead of fighting over trivial things that the actors said in a goofy interview, we should be sharing our love of the show.

“ it fine I just want my broccoli” 😂😂😂😂

suddenly i don't know a supergirl's cast

This was amazing and hilarious and they did nothing wrong. They literally just said that Kara and Lena are just friends, which is a canon fact. They didn't say lesbian relationships suck or that they're not valid. They didn't say the LGBT community is stupid or not valid. They didn't say anything disrespectful at all. People have blown this up out of proportion because they're mad that the show hasn't given them what they want. These are the same people that have spent the last year sending hate to the writers for not giving them what they want. These are the same people that conveniently forget that SG already has a beautiful f/f relationship, which for sure would've been talked about more if Chyler had been able to come (she had family commitments btw). These are the same people that throw around the word "abusive" like it's candy, further diluting that word for those that have experienced abuse in real life. These are the same people that have mocked Chris Wood for his appearance for months. These are the same people that made wild assumptions about Melissa's personal life when they don't know her at all. These are the same people that literally encouraged others to act disrespectfully towards Chris at SDCC, one even going as far as saying that they wanted someone to kill him at SDCC. These are now the people playing the victim by taking what they "supposedly" knew already (that Kara and Lena are just friends) and twisting that to make it look like the cast somehow disrespected and invalidated the entire LGBT community. Talk about first world problems. There are LGBT people in the world that are literally getting beheaded for being LGBT, but sure, let's get offended over a line in a silly song stating that two women are just friends. I am disgusted. Please put down your phones and go out in the world and educate yourself. Witness the absolute horrors that others have to go through every single day while you sit in your comfortable home bitching about a TV show. Entertainment is a PRIVILEGE, not a right. You're not entitled to anything. If you want a story to be a certain way, then by all means enroll yourself in film school and make your own shows and movies exactly how you want and make all the characters LGBT. Otherwise, it's not your story to tell. We've gotten to the point where we cannot appreciate other people's work for what it is - their view, their idea, their perspective - because we feel the need to take it and control it, and twist it so that it's OUR view, OUR idea, OUR perspective. What is the point then?? Anyways I'm going to keep on loving and supporting this show and cast. It's heartwarming and a beautiful story about growing up and changing for the better and inspiring people. ✌

Can we just appreciate Katie losing her shit in the back while the cast was singing the recap of season 2 😂

Katie seems like the only mature one out of all the cast members. I can definitely see why they've been getting a lot of hate. :/

Everyone's saying that Katie was uncomfortable and stuff when they said that Supercorp were only friends, but she was also laughing like the rest of the cast so everyone needs to just calm down

Ok but how is this disrespectful? They're just saying it won't happen in a fun, entertaining way. Not once did they say anything bad about the LGBT community.

i have never felt so hurt and alienated...

This was just disgusting to see, mostly because of that song, but props to Katie (you know, the one who was actually being professional here) for what she said and for remaining respectful

Invalidating at its best. This is disgusting. Thank you Katie for not tolerating their bullshit

If Chyler was there her and Katie would've slammed them down hard. 👀

I honestly didn't want to address this, but this has gotten way out of hand. As a black lesbian woman, I have been blatantly disrespected whether it has been behind my back or right to my face for something I cannot control, no matter how hard I tried. But people are taken what happened way out of hand. First and for most, as someone who has followed this cast since it started, anyone with half a brain would realize this was not meant to offend anyone. If this has hurt you I am deeply sorry, but leaving hate on anyone's IG pages or Twitter because they are "hurt", has never been okay. I have read comments where fans talk about being disrespected and yet tell another human being to kill themselves and how their career is ended. Are you serious right now? Being a part of the LGBTQ+ community should have showed you that words hurt. Honestly, if you didn't like what happened, you can tell them, but being disrespectful will not help our situation or make it better. I disagree with most of you and I hope that you get thicker skin because this is ridiculous. P.S. Why would anyone apologize after receiving hate from thousands of people for just saying the truth? Yeah, I know I wouldn't. By the way I fucking LIVE for Supercorp, but I realize that it will never be canon, so I read fanfics all day. I suggest you do the same. I however will mention that people make mistakes and that what was said shouldn't have been said, but sometimes people not in our community don't realize how hurtful shit like this can be...

Why are people working so hard to start drama. When Jeremy said they are only friends, she started hysterically laughing. She wasn’t awkward about it. Everyone is trying to start drama and it’s ridiculous. Let the cast joke around and have fun

The thing that impressed me the most out of this interview is how Jeremy did it with the full knowledge that the "joke" was offensive and would "get destroyed" for "debunking Supercorp" to then turn around and issue an "apology" about how hurtful the LGBT community is being to him when he did it by "accident". Brotha, you knew exactly what you were doing, and to turn it around on the fandom and say they are the hurtful ones because they are making you feel bad on purpose is so low that I honestly can't care about your entire career as an LGBT "ally". Today you were not an ally, your actions of the past do not erase the amount of anger and mockery that you put behind your words during that musical recap and your apology is nothing but you putting the blame on the community for reacting exactly as you expected them to. I am beyond disappointed with this cast. You all should be ashamed of yourselves.

my thoughts: - most people knew that it was a non-canon ship that wasn't going to happen - BUT, that doesn't give actors the right to completely mock that ship - i understand that this was a joke, but it was really going too far - odette, david & katie seemed really uncomfortable throughout the song and it's obvious that they were trying to save the situation, but awkwardly laughed in the moment - katie is such a classy lady, i love her so much - i wish chy was here to tone this shit down, because chyler worked for almost a year to get that representation on screen, but when she's not there; it's all fun and games and the cast just begins to make fun of a non-canon wlw ship

if you love chris wood, be glad he didn't laugh for most of it when the rest were laughing about supercorp. i mean he laughed until he stated about the sexuality thing and then stated it was sarcasm. and katie was trying to not be rude and stuff. damn i stanned katie ever since merlin man

maybe they should have sung about one of the characters being a literal slave owner instead

Katie is such a role model. I love her.

great thing Katie exists am i right
