18. Kara Kent
Played by: Laura Vandervoort
Appearances: 23 (regular – S7, guest – S8, recurring – S10)
Clark’s Kryptonian cousin Kara Kent is very much a ‘Cousin Oliver‘ type character and she was unfortunately tugged around by various plotlines during season seven. Still, Laura Vandervoort was likeable in the important role of Supergirl, even if she was underutilised.
17. Jimmy Olsen
Played by: Aaron Ashmore
Appearances: 53 episodes (recurring – S6, regular – S7-8, guest – S10)
Jimmy Olsen was a pretty charming guy for the most part, thanks to Aaron Ashmore’s performance, but like Kara he was often let down by some weird writing decisions (e.g. his random drug addiction). And we’re not even going to get into that final reveal…
16. Major Zod
Played by: Callum Blue
Appearances: 23 episodes (regular – S9, guest – S10)
Callum Blue had big Terence Stamp-sized shoes to fill in the role of General Zod but, generally speaking, he did pretty well. Zod is heavily built up throughout the show – he created Bizarro! His son is Doomsday! He destroyed Krypton! – so he made for a strong big bad for season 9.
Lana Lang or Chloe Sullivan should be #1.
