SUPERGIRL Review, BET Awards 2026 and More | SEATED Podcast | Ep. 39

WATCH ON YOUTUBE

Hosts Tre'vell Anderson and Ray Love Jr. are grabbing their red capes and taking flight for their review of Craig Gillespie's gritty, highly anticipated cosmic revenge thriller, SUPERGIRL.

Starring Milly Alcock as a jaded Kara Zor-El, alongside a star-studded cast featuring Jason Momoa as Lobo, the film tackles trauma, vengeance, and what it means to be the Woman of Tomorrow.

Ray and Tre'vell get into the nitty-gritty of the film's execution, unpacking how this darker DC universe chapter holds up through the Black gaze and whether the blockbuster actually gives what it's supposed to give or just gets lost in space. Tune in for their hella honest verdict: is this intergalactic rescue mission a "Seated," "Stream It," or a "Skip It?"

Ray also drops in a special Fresh Out segment, unpacking their unfiltered reactions to the highs, lows, and culture-shifting moments of the 2026 BET Awards.

Plus, the hosts play a special "The Melanin Multiverse" edition of the Black Cinema Games, highlighting iconic Black characters from across the DC Universe. Finally, they close the show with Good Vibes Only, sharing what's bringing them joy this week.
