Home Entertainment provided me with a free copy of the Blu-ray I reviewed in this post. The opinions I share are my own.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p>I never miss an episode of this show. It&#8217;s a fun teen superhero show. At first, I thought it was interesting but a bit pedestrian, but it got better as the season went along.\u00a0 This show is definitely aimed at teens more than the other superhero shows. It&#8217;s a little more light and fun than those other shows. Which is not to say that the stakes aren&#8217;t just as high.<\/p>\n<p>This is the original season, so it was fun to watch them put together the JSA. The only thing I don&#8217;t like is that all of their powers seem to come from objects. I guess it was the only way they could find a way to write teenagers with powers. It would be too coincidental if they all just happened to live in the same town.<\/p>\n<p>The first JSA comics were written in the 40&#8217;s, so they were probably wise to update them.\u00a0 Part of me, though would have loved to have seen a JSA series based on the same ones we saw in &#8220;DC&#8217;s Legends of Tomorrow,&#8221; with Patrick J. Adams as Hourman.\u00a0 I used to read about the JSA when I was a kid. This TV show, &#8220;Stargirl&#8221; is based on a comic book from the 90&#8217;s, which is very different.<\/p>\n<p>If you like superheroes, or you have children who like them, you should buy this DVD.\u00a0 There are no special features on the DVD, though. Perhaps because of coronavirus&#8230;a lot of the DVD&#8217;s I&#8217;m seeing now are lacking in extras. I read that the versions of the show that aired on The CW are shorter than the ones that aired on DC Universe. You would think that would make for an interesting feature.<\/p>\n<p>MORE INFORMATION:<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\">There\u2019s a New Hero in Town<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div align=\"center\">DC\u2019S <span class=\"il\">STARGIRL<\/span>:<\/div>\n<div align=\"center\">THE COMPLETE FIRST SEASON<\/div>\n<div align=\"center\"><\/div>\n<div align=\"center\">Contains All Action-Packed Episodes from the First Season of the Hit Original Series on DC UNIVERSE &amp; The CW<\/div>\n<div align=\"center\"><\/div>\n<div align=\"center\">The Stars Will Align September 29, 2020<\/div>\n<div align=\"center\">With the Release of the Blu-ray\u2122 &amp; DVD<\/div>\n<div align=\"center\"><\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\">BURBANK, CA (June 22, 2020) \u2013 It\u2019s time for a new generation of justice!
