Omfg Iris West was a pain in the ass throughout the whole ride.

Season 1 I admired her reporting duties where she acted cool and normal with barry.

Season 2 it changed a bit

Season 3:4 it went downhill and every scene where they kissed or bloody said cringey words/lines, I would immediately skip the scenes because of anger.

I'm really pissed about how they changed Iris, I get it's her job to inspire her husband and motivate him to be better. But these cringey ass lines and annoying scenes must stop. It happened all the way across season 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7.

This show really changed a lot and I really miss:

HR (Best thing about season 3, making us laugh every time)

Ralph Dibney (Hartley Sawyer you deserved a second chance, this soft ass world removed your talent and cancelled you because of old news). DW True fans know Ralph and Sue were the real deal. Can you imagine episode with them two. Eric Wallace destroyed another opportunity. I loved the James bond episode with Barry, Sue and Ralph. There would of been more episodes like THAT IF HE WAS STILL IN THE BLOODY SHOW.

Cisco (The legend VIBE and engineer (Best character): I understand why Carlos left the show, it is not the same as before)

Chester is another pain in the ass, let's not even talk about his character. He's not even funny or engaging like Cisco. I'm going to give him more time but I doubt I will like him

Caitlyn and Killer frost (I miss the season 1, 2, 3 Caitlyn, I wish Julian stayed but Tom contract ended unfortunately. She was the OG along with Cisco, Harry, Joe, Stein and others.

Julian Albert (I miss him a lot man, he was a good character)

Man I miss Zoom (Hunter Zolomon), back when the show actually felt scary and menacing. Now it feels like a kids show.

I hate Allegra, Cecile and Kamila, Same boats as Iris. Team Citizen myASS.

Don't care about Wally or Jessy, actually I miss them as a couple. At least they were better than Iris and Barry in some aspects.

I'm just going to rate the seasons as how I feel:

1. Season 1: 9/10
2. Season 2: 9.5/10
3. Season 3: 7/10 (Being generous because of HR :( )
4. Season 4: 4/10 (Delete Iris then it would've been better). Being generous because we had Ralph :(
5. Season 5: 2/10 (Worst Villian ever, huge disappointed he/she had more potential)
6. Season 6a: 8/10 (Bloodwork was a huge upgrade to the show, loved every moment of it)
7. Season 6b: 3/10 (Hated Mirror storyline, I wish they kept Bloodwork honestly). At least it was better t

Before I get into the review itself, I just wanna give a special fuck you to Netflix for making me wait 2 extra days for this😂 unfortunately the Joe stuff got spoiled for me.

Anyway. What an episode! I heard there were gonna be twists and turns but Jesus! To recap:

•Barry is suspended from CCPD

•Star Labs is being demolished(which included losing Gideon)

•Joe is dead apparently

•(and more but those are the biggest)

I missed this. I was one of the few that liked season 7, but even I'll admit that this has been leagues better so far. I'll be the first to admit that objectively season 7 was not the greatest, which just leads me to ask... where did this come from??? Where was this writing last season??

Ok Ok the actual episode.

From what I've seen, the running theory is that Barry is in an alternate timeline. A theory I can definitely get behind considering he didn't know/remember Joe was dead after having given a eulogy at the funeral 6 months prior. What I would desperately like to know is that if this is the case, how the hell did it happen? How did we get into a completely different timeline between seasons?

Anyhow, on a strictly positive note for a sec, it was a delight to see the Ice Queen Frost back in the mix! Glad to see one of my favorite characters back!

Chester. Did we know he is a pacifist? It's very possible we did and I simply don't remember. Regardless, I wonder how long they'll have him keep that mindset. As we know, that's not exactly a winning mindset in The Flash. Speaking of Chester tho, it's cool that he was able to build a mini cortex, and I'm down to be in his garage for a few episodes. But I would like to see Star Labs return lol.

Despero. I think it's definitely safe to say that he is kinda rigging the game when it comes to Barry losing his mind. In fact I think Barry would be handling things much better if he didn't have a constant looming threat to worry about.

Guest star. It may have only been for like 30 seconds, but it was cool to see Black Lightning again, and I'm excited to see more from him next episode!

Same story for Alex, was awesome to see her the two times we did! I don't remember if we see her more, but if not it was still a cool cameo.

Overall, I dont know how to articulate my thoughts for this episode. Sorry if this review has been all over the place. The episode itself was all over the place lol.

Overall current rating: 8/10.

Season 4: It started with a weak premiere to a weak cliffhanger. They completely undid the cliffhanger straight away of the previous season just like with season 3 flashpoint storyline but far worse because this cliffhanger was supposed to lead into Kid Flash being a better hero and spend time with the flash.

Anyways they kicked off a character off screen who majority really liked just like Season 3 finale HR death. And that character is Julian Albert we all really liked him but poof gone.... Reduced to atoms.

Now let's get to the other weak points of the season. None in the city were affected by the speedforce storm whatsoever from the season 3 finale. No Godspeed. No new metas. Etc etc. Season 4 premiere made iris the team leader which atleast made sense to me as vibe and wally are in the field, Caitlin is gone, Julian is gone, Joe is doing his job. But after Barry came back iris should have gone back to reporting.

Season 4 had a very light tone and I loved every bit of it. The writing was bad but the comedy was amazing imo like That's gold, I am the flash, the breakup cube. I loved the Cisco and wells development. I loved frost development and Ralph too. I loved the Barry in trial story eventho it was forced like why don't u check CCTV cameras. Oh yeah they will see Barry being the flash there. And other stuff from the trial story was also missed. I hated the Thinker body swap thingy. I loved the flash time episode but it had some minor problems which I don't mind too much. But in the long term flashtime episode shouldn't have been a thing if they were gonna Nerf Barry in later seasons.

Season 4 was enjoyable like 3 but flaws in the writing led season 4 to be the worst of the first 4 when these flaws could be fixed but weren't. I will give Season 4 55/100 just cuz of the comedy otherwise it would have been a solid 40s.

Season 5: Season 5 could have been alot more better with a shorter season it had some amazing storylines but would have benefited alot with a shorter season with the route they took. If they wanted it to be longer than they should have shown cicada's origins. The OG Cicada was pretty good until after Episode 8. He should have been defeated there once and for all. The Cicada 2.0 was stupidly bad very stupid origins. Very bad acting like the erasing from existence part ewww. The actress wasn't fit for a villain role.

Season 5 made a mistake, a terrible one making Barry the guest star and making iris and Nora the leads which

Did anyone else feel this way

Red Hood just shoots at Nightwing, Nightwing turns around and ducks then Red Hood is gone. But he's a person, in fact a kid, so he's literally just running away. And somehow Superboy, Gar, Hawk, Dove, or Starfire can't catch him? Especially Superboy who has x-ray vision and super speed.

Cause this is the same shit that happens all the time on the Flash because the writers have to stretch things out and not make him too OP but it gets fucking stupid every other episode seeing a criminal throw a smoke bomb or something and the Flash covers his face and the criminal got away even though the Flash is the goddamn Flash and would see the grenade in slow motion and even if he were caught unaware he could just use super speed to catch a criminal that is probably still slightly jogging around the corner. But nope, we always get oh he got away. Fuck off.

So fucking stupid.

I haven't seen episode 4 yet, that probably has a better chance of being good since its pretty much the start of season 7, since the last 3 were finishing up season 6,

In the earlier seasons, how did Barry still have his speed even though Eddie killed himself and stopped Eobane from being born?

Because if Eobane was never born then he 1. couldn’t have gone back in time to kill Nora (which is one way Barry doesn’t have his speed) 2. and say even if Nora being alive still have Barry his powers how did Eobane (Harrison Wells) make STAR Labs and set off the accelerator.

Number two i suppose could work with like the original Harrison Wells made STAR labs as he was intended to but Eobane said that he needed it done a bit quicker which would indicate that by the time that the original Wells has the Accelerator blow Barry wouldn’t have been hit i’m guessing which all in all means that Barry shouldn’t have his speed.

Now with one it’s pretty explanatory. Nora is alive and well Eobane doesn’t get stuck in that timeline causing Barry to have his speed.

So why and how did Barry have his speed in these seasons? Along with all the other meta-humans having their powers as well.

I remember watching this episode back when it first aired and I was soooo hyped after it finished, with Black Flash/Flashpoint/Crisis on infinite earths references all in one episode, it was my favourite season finale until recently when I rewatched it. Unfortunately during a rewatch, there were several problems that I didn't initially notice the first time:

• The plan around the middle of the episode was nonsense. Why did team Flash send Zoom through a breach when they know Zoom is able to open up a breach to get back to Earth-1 whenever he wants. This is later reaffirmed when Zoom enters Earth-1 to start the race with Barry and bring Joe back from earth-2, all without the help of Cisco to open another breach. So there it is, the entire middle section of the episode was a complete waste of time.

• The acting seemed off in some places, especially during the race. Grant Gustin and Teddy Sears did the best as both Barry and Zoom, but everyone else seemed off, example being Caitlin's "his body can't handle that!" or Dr. Wells saying "we believe in you", or even Iris going "Barry, kick his ass", all from great actors/actresses, so I don't even know what happened here in this particular scene, if they had an off day or what, but that just wasn't up to par with their usual standards.

• The man in the mask being Barry's dad was great during the first watch, but on a rewatch it lost its value, and was also a bit pointless since he and Wells/Jesse immediately rushed off back to Earth 2. Wish his identity reveal had a little bit more pay-off.

• Speaking of the final battle, that itself was already underwhelming. The only really good parts were Barry's time remnant dying and also when Zoom turned into Black Flash, which got me extremely hyped, but the previous fights (barry vs zoom in 2x18 and 2x06, and at the beginning of the episode, 2x23) were all superior to the season's supposed climax. All in all, Zoom's defeat was so anticlimactic, especially when you consider he was one of the scariest villains this show has ever had.

Don't get me wrong, Season 2 is still one of the best seasons, but I think the finale wasn't as good as it could've been, on a rewatch. Plenty of people at the time loved to say that season 3 was the time the writing started to slip, but I'd say its as early as the season 2 finale where the show really started to slip. The show had its moments from time to time, but we're now 7 seasons in and it never really recovered to season 1 levels of

I'm new to flash, I just started with season 2 and I was wondering why is he still in the past . Barrey time traveled in the past accidentally during season 1 so why isn't he thinking about going to his timeline?

Does Flash ever thank/acknowledge the Legends for defeating Eobard Thawne in Legends of Tomorrow Season 2?

Was anyone else surprised that the flash is this show is Wally west and not Barry Allen ?

I’m used to Wally west being kid flash and being depicted as younger and running with the teen Titans or the kids of young justice.

Was it revealed before this episode that it was Wally ? Was there a reason to use him over Barry Allen ?

Zoom literally killed Barry's father in front of him… IN THE EXACT SAME PLACE HIS MOTHER DIED 16 YEARS EARLIER!!!! Next day Barry wants to kill Zoom but no… his friends have to be mean and lock him up!!! Barry had just lost his father and nobody was there for him! They locked a grieving person! If somebody does that to me I'll lock them up to get revenge. I also hate how a lot of people thinks it would've been cruel if Barry had gotten revenge on them but i don't care. In my opinion Barry's friends were the ones being cruel. Although the majority agrees with me on YouTube
