The CW and their lazy/lousy writing happened.

Re: The Flash

I have never seen a show decline so much. The first season was amazing and I would even put above like half of smallville and smallville is like my favorite show ever. Season 2 and 3 still good but not like 1. 4 started good but after the mid season final it went down hill and when you found out the villains motivation it was like really thats it? Season 5 I enjoyed over all but not the villain. season 6-9 I am like why am I even watching this any more lol.

I quit after season 6. Only watched like two episodes of season 7 and that was enough. I blame the CW and the writing staff.

Re: The Flash

This past episode was definitely the best one in ages simply because of: (major spoiler)

Spoiler

Oliver and Barry reunited!

Re: The Flash

So if anyone wants to watch S9 and you haven't yet, watch episode 1, skip 2-8, then start at 9.

Not sure how the same season could have episodes like 2-8 but then also ones like 9 and 10! Those two episodes have been some of the best (non crossover) episodes in years!

I did just this... I didn't even watch episode 1. I just watched episode 9 to see Oliver as the Green Arrow. I havent watched season 7 or season 8 and I feel like I havent missed anything based on the new characters. I may just watch the final 4 episodes to wrap it all up since I have seen the first 6 seasons of the Flash and was always a supporter until the CW went all CW with their writing for both the Flash and Arrow.

Glad to see Stephen Amell as Green Arrow probably for the last time. That really was a good episode compared to previous ones I have seen.

I didn't even find the episode interesting because of how bad the season has been. Then the story took so long to even get going for the episode and was boring, so I was basically already checked out for the episode by the time it got interesting.

Re: The Flash

I watched episode 10 and 11 last night. Episode 10 was definitely better than 11.

Spoiler

With Barry going back to the night where it all started and you seeing how the Flash originally came to be with his fight with Eobard. Episode 11 was ok... I like the parts with Eddie, so interested to see how that plays out. I am assuming the final big bad is Cobalt Blue or related to him somehow. This show would have been so much better if, after season 5 or 6, it moved over to HBO Max. The writing at the CW is just horrendous but I still like Grant Gustin as the Flash, so I will finish the last two episodes when they come out. I still have no desire to see Season 7 or Season 8, or even any of the episodes in Season 9 before the final 5 episodes.

Re: The Flash

If the series ended after episode 8, or after s6 or 7 or 8, I wouldn't miss the show.

After these last few episodes, I'll miss that part.

Hopefully the series finale has everyone possible in it, especially Joe and Cisco.

Everyone's wanted Eddie back since S2, but this further proves how good he could've been for the series.

Re: The Flash

Tonight's the SERIES finale!

Re: The Flash

Just watched the series finally ugh, so underwhelmed. CW writing at its finest...

Spoiler

Maybe I expected too much but for it to be the last episode of Flash, there still wasnt a lot of Flash in it. Also, I get it that Eddie was the big bad for this one... but come on. Eobard and Barry didnt even fight in this one. The Flash and the Reverse Flash should have at least gone head to head. And on that note of the Reverse Flash... it was too out of character for him to use that Lightning bolt thing on Chester. He would have just ran his hand through his heart like he always does.

I dont know. Just really disappointed in the series finale but I like I said, I expected too much and forgot it was the CW.

I also read up on each season of the flash and its funny that Season 6 is where The Flash really falls off the rails in regards to quality. Eric Wallace was made the showrunner that season and remained the showrunner till the end of the series, so maybe that's why it just became so unwatchable there towards the end.

Overall, the first few seasons of the Flash will always be the best. The Arrowverse is done now and I am still glad the Arrow started a revolution of comic book shows on tv.

Re: The Flash

They really should've had Cisco on this finale, not sure why they didn't.

Could've had Thawne about to "Reverse Flash" Chester before he gets stopped by a returning Cisco.

Overall not the greatest finale, but above average.

Re: The Flash

Really disappointed this is how the Arrowverse ends. I remember reading interviews when Arrow first came out The CWs CEO Mark Pedowotz said that he wanted it to appeal to a male or more mature audience and get away from the teeny drama image that the CW had. They didn’t want to be the Gossip Girl network. Well they did for like a season or two then they did a complete 180. SMH

The Arrowverse quickly turned into just more CW Dramas.

Flash by the end reolved so much around Cecile "the hardworking supermom who is struggling to balance her superhero life and raising a family". Not an exciting show.

Funny enough, remember a line from Big Bang Theory that ripped Smallville and applies now to the Arrowverse too.

Sheldon was talking about wanting closure on stuff, and mentioned Smallville helped him get closure easily by declining in quality by the end so it was easy to not miss it.
