    Crazy how much we take little things like this for granted. Like we expect great CGI in things and it's so commonly used, you almost forget how much goes into it.

      Re: The Flash

      Nice episode. Lol, the "this house is *itchin" line is gonna be a big time running gag isn't it?

      People here probably don't know but the person playing Hazard used to be a big time personality in Canada. I knew after a scene or two she was familiar and then saw the name as confirmation. She's Sugar from YTV! Back when YTV was in between its anime and nickelodeon phase. SpongeBob, fairly odd parents, dbz and so on. She was the co-host for years. Hadn't seen anything about her really since she left.

        What is with Wally's hair this season? It looks like a bad toupee.

            Even Wells hair is abit messed this year too. But Wallys was most difference obviously. Funny/Sad though how true his line was. The "You were off fighting a meta and I'm sure nobody noticed I wasn't even around". I actually did forget about him too. Still weird having Flash with a sidekick in a way.

            Wally going though, wonder what exactly will happen once he returns. Maybe just mini one off appearances, or maybe he'll actually come back fully after some time.

            Jesse is messed though. Her dad saves her from Zoom, she gets mad at him. Then leaves him afterwards to be with Wally, then leaves Wally to return home with her dad and still dating Wally, now her dad is on Earth 1 and she breaks up with Wally.

              Ok.

              Since when did Iris became head of Team Flash and the lead on catching metas? I literally laughed when she tried to get off Flash cuffs...I mean, suddenly she's a tech guru? Odd there's no mention of her reporting.

              23, where you at with this stuff?

                It's pretty clear that she became the leader of Team Flash while Barry was in the Speed Force prison.

                  I know that...I just don't buy the premise. She was a waitress to a reporter to understanding tech and advanced pysics/science? I don't buy it.

                    Well she went 6 months without her fiancee, and spent the whole time with the same team of scientists and her Speed Force brother. Not to mention the entire 3 years before Barry left. I'm sure she's acquired an understanding of some things.

                      1 scientist, Cisco...Snow was absent and Harry was on Earth 2.

                      She wasn't involved in any science decisions or tech stuff in prior seasons, only giving motivational speeches.

                      If you're fine then ok. I just don't buy it.

                        But you're questioning the realism of a show about a guy that runs around at Mach 2. Is it so far fetched that someone in their 4th year in and out of a lab might know how to look at a computer screen and say "So and so is here, run there"?

                          You're redirecting the point. The show is based on comics, yes, but it does have set rules of logic and normal reality built in. The show went to great lengths in covering every plot line in S1 and S2 and I enjoyed it.

                          When she's telling Barry to throw a lightning bolt at himself and trying to hack or do something with Cisco's tech to turn off the mystery cuffs he had...yeah, I think it's far fetched without backstory given Iris' history.

                            You're right, there's literally NO way for someone to figure out that a suit full of technology can be fried by electricity, while also realizing "Hey, the guy in that suit can throw actual lightning".

                            It just really seems like you're severely underestimating Iris' intelligence. "Oh, she's just an INVESTIGATIVE reporter who used to serve coffee. It's highly unlikely that she would learn how to do anything else over 42 months."

                            And to continue on the bolded, she makes that decision right after Cisco and Caitlin talk about how much technology got added to the suit.

                            For reference, here's the entire scene.
