Lex (Jon Cryer) going to jail? Not going to happen Kara (Melissa Benoist) saved from the Phantom Zone Nope- at least not yet, and we have more of that damn "Crisis" fallout to thank for it So needless to say, "Team Supergirl" still has a whole mess of trouble to deal with heading into this[...]

First, series star Melissa Benoist is at the helm, taking the director's chair for "Deus Lex Machina."
