The Flash

Re: The Flash

Episode was good overall. O
The mind reading part was funny at first, mainly with Cisco, but she got annoying quick. The Barry and Goldberg stuff in jail was nice. Maybe it's just cause I know Goldberg, but it was a story I was hoping had a happy ending.

Shrinking part was good. Cisco had funny moments throughout. Bulbasaur lol. And Caitlin's reaction to having to take Ralph to the bathroom lol. That "embigening" power looked really cool. Too good for it to be a one episode power.

Interesting ending. The warden knows Barry is the flash! Is he just a regular bad guy who happened to find out, or is he in some way tied to Devoe? At first I thought he was gonna reveal he's devoe or something when he was talking to Barry when he passed out. Similar with the phone call. But now just looks like he is working with that other woman.

Re: The Flash

Loving this season so much such a improvement over season 2 and 3. Even when the episodes are filler they are much more entertaining then seasons 2 or 3 filler episodes. The end of tonight's episode was so good.

There is not one episode from last season that I liked more than any episode from this season-not one.

Liked this one but I could do without Cecille's mindreading ability.

Cecile in general I haven't found to be good or useful in the series. Ralph has already started blending in, as did Julian last season. Even Jesse was better connected to the team than Cecile.

Re: The Flash

They could've used Cecile to read the bald guys mind but just left her out of the most important part instead and kept her as a comedy side piece an a thorn for Joe.

Cisco and Wells are always A1 to me, I love when those 2 interact, arguing and geeking out together.

The Barry in jail thing is gonna end up getting old soon I was thinking, then they hit him with some plot twist. I just don't get how no camera ever has caught Barry as the Flash whether its in the police precint or anywhere else, but this one dude in prison could get some HD film with a tiny camera.

Anyway, on to next week.

After 6 years, I think people have to suspend their belief on DC shows. Some things make no sense or add up, but you just have to let it go. I mean we know Barry going to China and back in like 5 seconds isn't possible, especially since he takes a whole episode to catch up to a bad guy, and somehow going that speed is enough to get caught on camera? But regardless, just gotta ignore those little things.

Re: The Flash

More so, the guy just smiles and shakes his head like "...this guy!! Aww!" instead of being freaked out he is now a fugitive in China with no idea he got there, other than with a note from Barry.

I do like the sub-plot that Harry mentioned, that it cannot be a coincidence that Barry befriended a guy that was put in prison mistakenly because of a guy that is now a meta. I'm going to presume that will be brought back to full circle before the season is up...as will why he wanted each of the 12 to be metas and what use he has for them other than simply being an army of some kind in the finale.

It all has to connect. Barry getting put in exact same cell as his dad, befriending a guy who knew his dad, now this warden guy somehow being suspicious enough to set up a camera and catch that he's the flash.

I just don't think he's a regular guy. There has to be history between the warden and Devoe. Can't just be that he's a regular guy who just got tipped off or went bad at some point when Barry is in prison.

In the comics, Warden Wolfe is absolutely not a regular guy. And I really hope they're going that direction.

DON'T CLICK THE SPOILER IF YOU DON'T WANT THAT SPOILED

Spoiler

In the comics, Gregory Wolfe is also a metahuman. He can cause muscle spasms and illness, along with other psychokinetic abilities. So I'm pretty sure Barry's pudding was actually drugged. Or they could go with a non-meta Wolfe, and the pudding was drugged. Either way, Warden Wolfe is in fact, not a regular guy.

Its not believability as its like they contradict what they do the rest of the time.

barry can do it all... get people coffee, knock someone out while he's on a date and come back before they notice he's gone.

He changed the guys cards as they were playing and back in his seat on the floor and no one or nothing noticed.

...but that button sized camera they mysteriously installed by his cell that he never knew did it.

That's life in DC

Re: The Flash

They really need to consider getting Iris back at the newspaper doing her own thing. She really has no identity outside of being Barry's girl. I think everyone else is bringing something else to the table. With her news angle she could use her investigative skills to help the team in other ways. I don't blame her..I blame the writers. I know she became more a part of the team after Barry's time in the speed force but I don't think it's been working. Show was good though this week.

They've abandoned reporters. When was last time Kara even did reporting in supergirl? And her BFF is the boss. Everyone's work life is non existent on all shows.

True Maj!! I'm not saying I want them to focus a sole episode around them doing there 9-5's but these shows have basically ignored the question of how these guys keep the lights on and keep a roof over there heads. I have not been a big fan of Supergirl since Mon El's return other than that Reign beat down. That's another topic..

Hard to fit regular occupations in having all these superheroes at your disposal. Winn was relocated from Catco's CPU guy to the DEO/Superhero base, Iris goes from reporting to a Team Flash member. How much of Jimmy the boss did you see versus the Guardian? There are simply too many moving parts to do a little bit of everything.

Iris is OK. I don't really care to see her as a reporter detached from the team. At least she got to use a weapon this last episode.

Man they do that you'll start hearing her say she isnt getting paid as much as Grant aka Barry and we don't want that lol.

Kinda hard to say what they should do besides what she is now since Barry keeps leaving and putting her in position to have to be present more.
