"Born on the planet Krypton, Kara Zor-el escaped amid its destruction years ago. Since arriving on Earth, she’s been hiding the powers she shares with her famous cousin. But now at age 24, she decides to embrace her superhuman abilities and be the hero she was always meant to be."
Looks like the development of the series is now moving forward faster than a speeding locomotive! (... It's Friday, puns are going to happen) No one has been cast yet for the title role of Supergirl, but with this series order it is almost a guarantee that the show will premier by next Fall. Also with this being on CBS the thought of this maybe being a spin off of Smallville is pretty much kaput.
Marvel might be kicking ass at the movies, but DC is adding to its reign of television. This fall season alone sees three new DC television shows (Constantine, Gotham, and The Flash) premiering. And now there is news that another superhero is getting the small screen treatment. A Supergirl television series is in development from CW's Arrow and soon to be premiering spin off The Flash executive producer and writer Greg Berlanti.The show is still in its early stages so it does't even have a network yet, but it could get off the ground very quickly depending on how the new superhuman Flash show does. As of now expect an episode for Fall 2015 at the very earliest.

Supergirl is basically Superman's cousin, Kara Zor-El, and shares his powers and also his weakness... but not his love of wearing fake glasses and working for the Press. There is no word on whether this would be connected with the older CW young Superman series Smallville, but it most likely won't.
