I do not have a thing against Melissa Benoist who plays Supergirl on the CBS series.
I think she is great.
But you have to give props to Laura Vandervoort (SyFy’s werewolf drama Bitten), was the original live action Supergirl on CW’s Smallville.
I know there are a few rumors that have floated around about Laura maybe showing up on Supergirl at some point which I think would be great.
But they are really nothing more than rumors.
Though they did cast Helen Slater (the movie Supergirl) and Dean Cain (Lois and Clark) in roles....
So you never know.
Who could she play?
I like the idea of her crossing over from Earth 2 as Powergirl.
Anyway, here is the beautiful Laura who had to play Supergirl without ever really getting a costume.....

Supergirl - Laura Vandervoort on Smallville
In 2007, the CW TV show Smallville gave us an incredibly hot version of
Supergirl played by the gorgeous Laura Vandervoort.
This Supergirl had Helen Slater's naivety at first, but slowly developed a personality that was sweet...but she knew she could punch you through a wall if she had to.
They played around a LOT with her story, as they did with every storyline on Smallville. But they did work in a few things from the comics like her going to to the 31st century to join the Legion and using glasses and a wig to hide her secret identity. In some of the odder things they did, she could fly and Clark couldn't and she even kind of "became" Supergirl at one point before Clark became Superman.
It was messed up yeah, but it was Smallville. They really didn’t try to reign into the DC mythos until the last couple of seasons.
And it's no secret that I would have loved to see Laura Vandervoort get her own "Supergirl" spin-off show. But that didn’t happen.
