Season 3 of DC’s Stargirl kicked off last week with the new installment of The CW series taking its young heroes into new territory: a murder mystery. After dealing with the threat of Eclipso in a horror-themed Season 2, the third season kicked off with a shocking murder, but it won’t be the only surprising element as the season progresses. There are some unexpected friendships as well, including the one seemingly growing between Stargirl’s mother Barbara Whitmore and former Injustice Society villain Paula Brooks/Tigress (Joy Osmanski). Groundwork for this odd pairing was set up in Season 2 and photos from this week’s episode, “Frenemies – Chapter Two: The Suspects” show the two women seemingly trying to bake together, though the circumstances as to why are a bit unclear. Ahead of the episode, Amy Smart sat down with us to talk about the new season of the series as well as that surprising friendship and said that Season 3 has a bit of a Knives Out feel to it, comparing it to Rian Johnson’s wildly popular film.
