Now that Melissa is back on set, thought we could go ahead and create a thread of any BTS stuff we may come across and/or want to discuss.

Apropos of nothing, but it appears that Ms. Benoist is reading "Blitzed: Drugs in the Third Reich" by Norman Ohler. Interesting book, that points out the rampant use of methamphetamine in the Wehrmacht and posits the strong possibility that Hitler was fully addicted to pharmaceutical morphine (under the trademark Eukadol) by the end of the war.
I guess she must be one of these actors that reads the script once and knows all her lines...

Wooowhoo... one of my favorites BTS from any Supergirl season...not just because its a sister moment, but also because I love seeing the acting process--them receiving direction, and how they react to said direction.

This video and the previous shots are interesting. It makes me really wonder who that guy is that is attacking Kara and what kind of power he has to be able to hurt her. So, so happy to see Danvers sister scenes being filmed, too, even if it is perhaps not under the best circumstances.

Sons of Liberty and Cadmus are different than Astra/Non, Reha, and the Worldkillers. The latter were individuals that once neutralized there was a clear victory. The former are groups so even if you neutralize the leader the group remains, there’s no clear victory and the group may go dormant until new leadership takes over or the remaining members join a likeminded group.I never really thought of Cadmus as a 'one and done' threat. I actually thought of them as quite the opposite. When we left Season 1, the belief was that Cadmus was an extremely powerful, covert group within the government system that was tasked with obtaining aliens for research and as possible future weaponry. My understanding, or perhaps hope, was that it would be a group that was tightly weaved throughout the underpinning of the government and one that would be difficult to narrow down to just one source therefore, a more long-term, serious threat. However, Cadmus was unwrapped rather quickly during Season 2 with Lillian, a private citizen, outed as the leader. Everything that had been built up about it being a multi-prong threat appeared to have been dropped and the organization was relegated to a small hate group. In addition, the role of Cadmus narrowed even further as the season went on and the focus shifted from a major threat to Supergirl into more of a source of parental conflict for Lena and Alex (via Jeremiah). When Lillian showed up in Season 3 it was almost a laughable moment because of how easily she was captured.
I agree that Cadmus was mishandled in season two and I think the main reason for that was Brenda Strong wasn’t signed as a regular so her availability was limited. I said before I wanted Cadmus to be a persistent thorn in Kara’s side, something that never quite goes away. Sons of Liberty and Cadmus are likeminded groups so while Cadmus has lost leadership, with Lillian in Jail, it’s remaining members can join forces with the likeminded group. Think about real life hate groups, which have existed throughout human history, and how they have evolved all over the world just in the last couple of centuries.
I am not familiar with the Sons of Liberty but, from the sounds of it, they're going to be a continuation of a hate group, and perhaps you're right and the writers will tie Cadmus in with the group. But, because of the lack of definition and follow-through in previous seasons, Cadmus as it was originally built up to be in Season 1, is pretty much defunct. And while hate groups are definitely a viable threat, they're also a trope so, it would be nice if they expanded upon the idea and did something with it that hasn't already been done.
I think there will be a battle for Lena’s heart and that will be one of Kara’s victories or losses this season.Frankly, I am tired of the success or failure of the defeat of the villain riding on something that Lena does or does not do so, I hope that the resolution of the Sons of Liberty, aka Cadmus if that's the case, not be a result of Lena's conflict of between being good or bad.

I'm done with Cadmus. The only reason they should ever reappear is to resolve the Jeremiah story, which remains the shining beacon of broken plot on this show.
Agreed. Though Dean Cain has implied that he's returning, this year.
I don't think they should have even had that Lillian Luthor episode, last year. It did absolutely nothing for the plot, and was one of the worst episodes of the season, IMO. If Dean really is playing a part, this year, hopefully they can lay the rest of the Cadmus subplot to bed.
Though, it is worth noting that Henshaw was never EVER captured, even once. I was supremely upset at how they portrayed "Cyborg Superman", but I think his glaring absence has been another abandoned aspect, unless they fold it into a future threat.

SPOILERS!
This was shared by Stephen Amell. I have absolutely lost my mind over this photo, both for how awesome at is, and the possibilities it implies for this crossover and for the future.

Honestly, I'm happy about this. I want this anti-alien group that Agent Liberty is leading to be a formidable threat. Let's be honest. Cadmus was only a threat, once, in the episode where they captured Mon-El and Kara. Beyond that, they were lackluster, at best.Well, if we're being honest , the only time that I actually felt Cadmus as a threat was when they were first introduced, back in Season 1, and took Alex and J'onn captive. Even though both Alex and J'onn escaped, the potential for Cadmus as a ominous future villain was very intriguing. Season 2 pretty much nipped that anticipation in the bud though.
I had a similar feeling with the prospect of Reign and the World Killers this last season. The build-up of the Killers and then the beat-down that Reign gave Kara felt like we were in for a real ride for the remaining 2/3 of the season. Unfortunately, it, too, fizzled out and never really seemed to go anywhere as a real threat. While I do enjoy seeing Kara as just Kara, the back and forth between Supergirl and a formidable opponent creates the suspense that I particularly look forward to watching. So, I'm really hoping the anti-alien group is this type of antagonist and not just a political plot piece.

Ha ha that PA...."you're welcome to stay..." dude this is in Canada in a public venue, they can't get rid of you if they tried.....ha ha
In fairness, before the video cut off, it sounded like the PA was gonna say that they are welcome to stay, but that they need to be quiet on set, due to filming. It's kinda their job.

Ha ha yeah, Kiwi... I noted that, too, from YVRshoots. Always excited when I see them post those Supergirl filming notices.

Here's some more BTS shots of Chyler and that new Ghostbuster getup..

I love how the author is trying to start some kind of rumor or controversy, because Melissa was showing someone the tattoo on her left wrist. Trying to say "Did Supergirl get a tattoo?". Melissa's had that tattoo since before she started this role. I'm willing to bet it's why they went with the sleeves that wrap around the thumbs. Helps conceal the ink.
