We need a longer interview with Melissa Benoist!!!

[@guidoeehg1140]

And from a better interviewer.

[@DarthVader20201]

They are not talk so much about the show to get people to see it

[@thebatt6183]

i agree

[@83hbarnes]

SHE HAS AN AMAZING SMILE!

[@SamLanena]

Does she have an amazing career? Not that that's a metric for content or success, but I don't recall her actually participating in anything memorable. Was she in Coyote Ugly?

[@ramrod0209]

SuperGirl would have a SuperSmile!

[@SamLanena]

Oh. She was in a DC production. No wonder I had no clue.

[@dceplay]

She was also on “Glee”.

[@IamBatman.1939]

​@@SamLanena Supergirl, Glee and Whiplash (amazing movie)

[@heidos7]

Fell in love with her on Glee and continued to love her on Supergirl! She's stunning and so brave ❤

[@brianjungen4059]

How is she brave?

[@heidos7]

@@brianjungen4059 For talking about the abuse she suffered at the hands of her ex-husband (who was also on Glee)

She's so beautiful and down to Earth, love her!

[@taqiyasir8086]

She is so beautiful

[@cherry.blossom_tree]

"Jumpin' Jehoshaphat" & "Heavens to Betsy" sounds like her kid has been watching classic Looney Tunes cartoons. 😂

[@larav4793]

That was my thought!

[@aftonair]

I once heard my nephew exclaim, "Great Scott!" when he was trying to push open a door that was too heavy for him.

[@bradmikes4540]

On 1960s sitcom Car 54 Where Are You? Jumpin Jehoshaphat was the signature line of Gunther Toody played by Joe E Ross!

[@harlanjackson6112]

If it was from 60's cartoons, I remember it being 'Heavens to Murgatroyd' from Snagglepuss.

[@aftonair]

@harlanjackson6112 that was a good one! Thanks for bringing it to mind.

[@NewMessage]

She used to fly, now she takes the bus. Brutal summing up there, really.

[@yo_hood1e]

“i flew here… on- on a bus”

[@GinsuBot]

So gorgeous no matter what color hair.

[@marksoliva2332]

10000000% FACTSSSS

[@jaarlmohn7338]

Absolutely; one of the top beauties of all time. 😍

[@DarthVader20201]

She did well in coloring her hair to match the character biopic

[@yurielcundangan9090]

Gotta love this Super lady she’s just wholesome

[@matthewsutphin7508]

Somebody has got the world by its tail. Blessed are you.

[@helenaaraujo6324]

She has the best laughter ever

[@larav4793]

Yes she has always had a great giggle too. Yes it was way too short.

[@karthigeyank]

She is radiant! Full of life! ❤My supergirl

[@Mimmi-vh1wt]

[@BrandonKohout]

No matter what happens and no matter what people say or do, Melissa Benoist will always be Supergirl in our hearts.

[@yurielcundangan9090]

Anyone else love super girl🙃😂

[@wanderingseth]

Melissa is one of the most naturally beautiful women in Hollywood. Her energy just sparkles.

[@montecristowho]

She looks, Mesmerising, Dashing and cute; all at the same time.

[@theavengers.]

Love supergirl since young ❤

[@AngelusHale]

I'm so happy to see her happy.

[@antgonz4436]

She is just gorgeous and very elegant. Wow she looks better with dark hair than blonde.

[@ben0789]

It's her natural hair color. When melissa played supergirl she dyed her hair blonde.

[@jj0811otter]

She should have had more time to talk!

[@virlinehonore9767]

I haven’t seen her since supergirl omg!

[@hartlandnews81]

Thanks 4 posting this. I tuned into it to see her but fell a sleep before she came on. Due to this clip I don't have to see the whole show.

[@PrernaLalLegal]

Come on Jimmy, surely the girl of steel deserves more of your time!

[@chethakmp3]

She's so beautiful

[@Steamfan1]

Looks better in blonde

[@ismiauliamadzkuri870]

She is always a Supergirl, to me... Good to see her again after all this time. I'm still keep Supergirl Series all season on my hardisk.

[@LM77va]

She sounds older, but looks the same 👍

[@ben0789]

She still has those supergirl muscles too 💪

[@chriscox3709]

I miss Melissa Benoist. She was the best Supergirl ever IMO. Total sweetheart ❤

[@ehasanahmedkhan2819]

May she be happy with her husband, son and have a wonderful life you

[@chatochupas]

My Supergirl 🤩

[@emu_warrior]

Stunning and fun. Those eyes

[@TheFyend]

Her best work was in season 1 of Homeland.

[@waynebrowne1063]

Lordy, she’s beautiful!

[@EntretenimientoConPerspectiva]

❤❤Supergirl Oo my Supergirl i so miss you😢

[@misslegacyatheart]

Girls on the Bus reminds me of a book called Campaign Widows by Aimee Agresti. Both are great. Check out the Girls on the Bus!

[@jessieeller5211]

Never get tired of watching supergirl.

[@jacksc01]

I really miss Melissa Benoist so much on TV - she was fantastic as SuperGirl and in "real life" she is an honest, caring and world concerned person -she is truly one of the best. HBO Max did not renew Girls on the Bus for a second season - again another good show not supported by a network - your loss HBO Max.

[@cookiesncream789]

She is so adorable, I love her ❤!

[@drakenobrim901memphis3]

My all time celebrity crush ❤❤

[@bessmahaneypilates8638]

Loved her on Glee ❤

[@TanyaMendez.]

Was she on Glee?

[@rl42382]

Yes

[@redhood_96]

Yes! One of main reasons why there was a musical crossover episode with The Flash.

[@denissepalacios2106]

Yes, she was Marley rose

[@ztswift]

Melissa Benoist is forever a real life Supergirl

[@drlessismore]

GORG. So talented. 👍🏼

[@donya._.m0hammadi104]

This was way too short

[@piusdoe8984]

Great gal. Glee and Supergirl. 🎉 great personality

[@ericlaw8617]

my supergirl

[@OddOneOut665]

You gave Seinfeld 16 Mins, but you gave this beautiful Gal only 5? Not only that, this was just pure small talk! You couldnt have brought up SOMETHING interesting about her???

[@millmaster413]

Bro just because she got good genetics doesn’t mean she is more deserving than a genius

[@dthill96]

Second guest usually gets 5-7 minutes

[@fearpacex6000]

Womp womp. She's mid and not that interesting. Next! Lmao.

[@kman20]

There’s been a lot of disrespect to Seinfeld lately. Kind of sad

[@artistathlete6525]

He probably knows nothing about her. And its odd how serious sounding she is. She sounds the opposite of how she acts.

[@MARVELSuperWar976]

You're so beautiful Melissa Benoist

[@BlackHawk3927]

Oh hey not used to Supergirl in dark hair

[@clarkkent1680]

This is Melissa’s natural hair colour,she was blonde only because of Supergirl role,and she was blonde only in 2015-2021,before and after that Melissa was always brunette

[@jimmiephilavanh9730]

Oh the child will be 4 years old this year how cute cutey!

[@yrebecayt122]

❤❤

[@heideleskun1163]

When my daughter was 3 she called my husbands "nipples" nickles. Now when referencing that area, men or women, all three say "nickles". They are are 25/31/25

[@Greg-io1ip]

Nothing like a nice nickel. All of us WANTED CHILDREN got indoctrinated on 'nickels' at a young age. Better than England's Royal Monarchy's obsolete scripture any day.

[@moses8910]

Supergirl to reporter was right there

[@iamchrispaezjr]

She is gorgeous omg

[@donaldzinman2184]

I'm glad her career is progressing well.

[@rutesouza3373]

Que mulher belíssima ❤

[@bodie463]

Still looks sensational 😍

[@lindaward3156]

sounds like he was watching the Snagglepuss of my childhood I've seen a ghost & also 3 UFO's (not 3 different times, 3 in one event) but not again in the 50ish years since, what a bummer. I haven't fallen down any rabbit hole but it would be nice to know what they all were

[@super.verse2.0]

Hahaha. I can't. 😂😂😂

[@773soccer]

She's so pretty!

[@hemillyribeiro5590]

❤❤❤❤

[@19HuskyWolf70]
