The second season of Stargirl is also known as Summer School, which ran for thirteen consecutive weeks from August 10 on Binge. Usually these shows have multiple breaks throughout the season. Which sometimes allows a show to feel like it is severely dragging. No issues with that, along with the fact most episodes were less than 40 minutes in running time.
A third season, subtitled Frenemies, has already been green lit so 2022 will still see some DC superhero shows.
In season two, Stargirl and the Justice Society must contend with the re-emergence of former ISA member Shade and the threat of Eclipso. Meanwhile, Cindy and Eclipso work on putting together a new ISA called Injustice Unlimited.
Season one was initially a DC Universe original, season two the series transferred to teen/home of DC series The CW. Whilst in Australia we got the second season, week to week.
The finale was an action packed 38 minutes.
Eclipso begins merging Earth with the Shadowlands. Beth and McNider struggle to rescue her parents from an illusion while the JSA fights Eclipso and his illusions.
An amulet-less Rick recruits Grundy while Thunderbolt returns to Jakeem and repairs S.T.R.I.P.E. for Mike, but Eclipso defeats them all and kills Grundy.
Shade returns and rescues Beth's parents. Courtney admits her hatred for Eclipso, allowing him to overtake her as his new host, but the JSA, joined by Starman, helps her regain control.
Eclipso is weakened by Sportsmaster and Tigress and turned into a slice of toast by Thunderbolt.
Afterwards, Sylvester offers to teach Courtney more about the Cosmic Staff. Yolanda and Cindy decide to remain with the JSA while Mike and Jakeem start their own team.
Beth locates McNider's family, so he departs to find them. Her parents also decide to stay together. At his father's mural, Cameron's grandparents reveal their cryogenic powers to him.
Rick buries Grundy, but Shade states that Grundy could come back.
Later, the Crocks move in next door to the Whitmore-Dugans.
Then finally, at the Helix Institute, Louise Love informs Mister Bones about the heroes and villains living in Nebraska. They decide in season three, they will visit Nebraska.
Stargirl has been a wild ride this season. It hasn't lost too much since season one. The show is hardly original whilst at times the dialogue is super juvenile. That said with all that has gone on in the world, this is some nice escapism weekly.
I will welcome it back in 2022. No doubt it will be back middle of 2022, due to a large number of series currently airing/coming soon to The CW.
