SPOILERS
Some definite surprises in this one. I think the biggest headscratcher is why Henry Allen left. I know he said he had to let Barry be the Flash, and not worry about his dad, blah, blah, blah, but c'mon...where's he going to go? The guy's been in prison for 14 years! I hope there is some secrets to be revealed in this regard, and this isn't just because Shipp isn't a series regular. Henry could have just been off camera for most of the episodes!
But other than that, I enjoyed it. I wish we'd seen more of Jay, but I think we're getting that next week. I'm also sorry to see Atom Smasher taken out so quickly, and as a villain, but he's obviously a part of the season's bigger storyline.
All in all, a strong start, with some nice growth for the series.
