First 'Supergirl' Trailer Has Melissa Benoist Adorkably Saving Lives

Look up in the sky! It's the first "Supergirl" trailer!

It's been months since CBS first announced the project, which stars "Glee" alum Melissa Benoist as Kara Zor-El, another survivor of the destruction of Krypton and, coincidentally, Superman's cousin.

Now we finally get our first look at the series, and it looks...as much as we hate to revive this word...a little "adorkable."

It's not until halfway through the trailer that we see even a glimpse of Kara using her incredible superpowers. Instead, we mostly get to know her as her alter ego, working as an assistant and keeping up a slightly hapless appearance.

But don't worry, this isn't a "Smallville" situation where there won't be any flying or capes. In fact, even in this first look we get to see the progression of Supergirl's costume up to the finished product, which looks pretty great.

Check out the trailer below and get excited!
