My opinion on Floriana leaving the Supergirl Cast
If Maggie’s presence on the show is going to be seriously limited, then it would be best to end their relationship. Otherwise, Alex’s love life becomes an afterthought. Maggie was a good first romance for Alex, but it’s time they put Alex out there. Instead of handing her this cut and dry relationship, where they can make things as simple as possible, let her explore a bit. Consider something that’s not sewn up all neat and tidy. The actual trials and tribulations of dating, for someone who’s tentative and inexperienced. A great contrast to her confidence as a DEO agent. And let's be honest, as much as we (myself included) love Sanvers, their relationship was extremely rushed, it just felt tacked on.
How about an honest to god, will they/won’t they relationship between two female characters on a mainstream show. It's so rare that we get seasonal build up between queer characters without it being queerbait. Wouldn’t Lena be an interesting possibility? (Just a thought since the writers seem to be flinging Kara down the Mon-El road, it's likely the pairing will only remain best friends, but Lena's sexuality has never been inherently and explicitly defined, save for Jack) We’ve barely seen Alex and Lena interact, so let’s throw them together and see what kind of chemistry they have. There is a massive amount of potential in such a relationship. Butting heads at first. Layering in the tension. Something they could build over the course of seasons, instead of plowing through like a locomotive. Alex’s coming out was handled deftly and with great care. I would hate to see them suddenly take the easy road and present her sexuality as nothing more than some quota to fill.
