All right, everyone. With eighteen episodes under her cape, I think the time has come to Rank 'Em. It's simple - rank the episodes of "Supergirl" you've seen from your favorite to your least favorite.

I did this with "Smallville" previously, and it worked pretty well.

So, without further ado, here are the episodes which have aired:

Episode 1: "Pilot" (10/26/15)
Episode 2: "Stronger Together" (11/2/15)
Episode 3: "Fight or Flight" (11/9/15)
Episode 4: "Livewire" (11/16/15)
Episode 5: "How Does She Do It?" (11/23/15)
Episode 6: "Red Faced" (11/30/15)
Episode 7: "Human For a Day" (12/7/15)
Episode 8: "Hostile Takeover" (12/14/15)
Episode 9: "Blood Bonds" (1/4/16)
Episode 10: "Childish Things" (1/18/16)
Episode 11: "Strange Visitor From Another Planet" (1/25/16)
Episode 12: "Bizarro" (2/1/16)
Episode 13: "For the Girl Who Has Everything" (2/8/16)
Episode 14: "Truth, Justice, and the American Way" (2/22/16)
Episode 15: "Solitude" (2/29/16)
Episode 16: "Falling" (3/14/16)
Episode 17: "Manhunter" (3/21/16)
Episode 18: "Worlds Finest" (3/28/16)
Episode 19: "Myriad" (4/11/16)
Episode 20: "Better Angels" SEASON FINALE (4/18/16)

Favorite: Human for a Day
Second-Favorite: Toss-up between Red Faced and the Pilot
Third-Favorite: Livewire
Least Favorite*: Stronger Together

* Strictly because of process of elimination
 
It's absolutely impossible to rank them all for me but Human for a Day is certainly the best episode yet.
 
I accidentally left Fight or Flight out of my rankings, so I'd rank it as my Third-Favorite alongside Livewire.
 
Based on the episodes I've seen:

Human For a Day
Pilot
Livewire
Stronger Together
How Does She Do It?
Fight or Flight

(Need to catch "Red Faced.")

It is hard to rank one over the other, although the episode that brought tears the most was this last episode "Human For A Day" and #2 is tied with "Livewire" and "Red Faced"

But I have enjoyed all of them immensely.
 
1. Human for a Day
2. Live Wire
3. The rest. . .
4. . . .Red Faced
 
1. Human For a Day
2. Livewire
3. How Does She Do It?
4. Pilot
5. Red Faced
6. Stronger Together
7. Fight or Flight

But tbh I've enjoyed them all
 
Very Good:
Human For a Day
Livewire

Good:
Red Faced
How Does She Do it?

Mediocre:
Fight or Flight
Stronger Together
Pilot

Those first three episodes were weighed down heavily with blurry/just out of frame Superman and especially the hamfisted feminist themes (I don't have an issue with feminist themes, I have an issue with Supergirl beating the audience over the head with them).
 
Well I Missed Fight or Flight because I was visiting relatives during the Thanksgiving holiday in one of the Central timezones and they took me out to dinner at 7pm.

I am seriously considering waiting until the episode is rerun to watch it.

I hope that they they air the episodes in the originally intended order.
 
My updated list:

Human For a Day
Pilot
Livewire
Hostile Takeover
Stronger Together
How Does She Do It?
Fight or Flight

(Need to catch "Red Faced.")
 
Strange Visitor From Another Planet
Human For a Day
Pilot
Childish Things
Livewire
Hostile Takeover
Stronger Together
Blood Bonds
Red Faced
How Does She Do It?
Fight or Flight
 
Strange Visitor From Another Planet
Human For A Day
Red Faced
Hostile Takeover
Blood Bonds
How Does She Do It? (Tied with Livewire)
Livewire (Tied with How Does She Do It?)
Fight or Flight (Tied with Stronger Together)
Stronger Together (Tied with Fight or Flight)
Pilot
Bizarro

If I broke these down into favorite scenes it would look a little different.
 
Strange Visitor From Another Planet
Human For a Day
Pilot
Childish Things
For the Girl Who Has Everything
Livewire
Bizarro
Hostile Takeover
Stronger Together
Blood Bonds
Red Faced
How Does She Do It?
Fight or Flight

Episode 14: "Truth, Justice, and the American Way" (2/22/16)
1. Truth, Justice, and the American Way
2.
Blood Bonds
3.
Hostile Takeover
4.
Childish Things
5.
Human For a Day
6.
Fight or Flight

The rest have been flawed enough that they don't deserve to be in the running. Supergirl's main issue is that it veers between really good and not very good, and it hasn't had more than 1 or 2 episodes that have have been consistently solid.
