Benoist is a better (appearance wise) Supergirl than Vandervoort was. That nose on Vandervoort. She's not ugly, but that's not a nose the girl of steel should be spouting.
You have many question, Mr Sparkle. I send you premium answer question, hundred percent! -

They wanted a Plain Jane for the female audiences to relate to.
So true and don't forget they wanted a hot guy for her to lust after
Boston and Philly love to slander us, but they don t have as many fans as us -

She's too average for Supergirl.
But guess what that's what CBS wanted.
They didn't want a chiseled godly model type.

Well that's stupid. That's like casting a regular-looking guy to play Thor so that plane Joe male audiences can relate to him.
This is so stupid. Superheroes are SUPPOSED to be impossibly good-looking. This really was a dumb move. -

You could doll most average girls in makeup, like they do for her as SG, and they could look like her version of Supergirl.
Benoist doesn't have supermodel or stunning/outworldly looks.
She looks like a plain jane. Hence why she looks like many of the cosplayers who dress up as SG.
