In the case of Supergirl for example the arch-villain is good scripts and acting.
In the case of Jessica it is the awesome David Tennant in one of his best roles -- note the sheen of perspiration which gives him a gritty and unclean look --- who manages to maintain the impact of his character with only a few seconds of screen time here and there.
Boy is this series well done. Sometimes I think I am actually watching a real person going through her day in a documentary, which is the highest form of compliment you can pay to a fictional drama.
Has all the makings of a cult hit.
