The Flash premieres tonight on CW!!

^Yeah, it reminded me of the early Waid era where Wally was really exploring the limits of his powers.

I think Captain Cold was giving the heat gun weapon to Heat Wave, another classic Flash Rouge's Gallery villain. HW & Cold occasionally teamed up as the "Temperature Twins", usually squabbling over a girl ( Iris).

[Earth 2 Chris]

Yeah, Cold called the guy "Mitch" and that's Heat Wave. But I think the "Burning Man" is probably Firestorm. Just my take.

The Flash has become my favorite show this season, it entertains me in every aspect and has me looking forward to Tuesday nights.

My feelings exactly. And it's a show I feel I could enjoy in rereuns/dvd as well.

[Earth 2 Chris]

I never stop for a show during the week these days...except The Flash. The whole family watches it.

The girl who works for the guy in the wheelchair(sorry my memory is bad)her boyfriends name was Ronnie,he disappeared during the accident,he will be Firestorm.

[Earth 2 Chris]

Yes, that is Ronnie Raymond. Professor Stein AND Jason Rusch, the other two halves of Firestorm with Ronnie at different times, have also been cast.

Katelyn Snow (the assistant to Dr. Wells) is also the secret ID of Firestorm's enemy, Killer Frost, so...

I'm guessing during the accelerator accident. Ronnie and the Professor merged as one. I hope they try to get the suit right as a containment suit.

With or without puffy sleeves? LOL!

[Earth 2 Chris]

^After the accident, Ronnie has amnesia and has taken to the life of a flamenco dancer.

I hate to be a party pooper here, but the Flash is already boring me. First off, Barry's eye stalking of his stepsister is already creeping me out (does anybody get the same feeling here?). Barry's guardian/stepfather gets on my nerves. That scientist kid who resembles Jacob from the Twilight movies is annoying. The sinister fake wheel chair dude, well, I want him gone already...and the meta human of the week is just repetitive to me. It should really just be one villain for a few episodes before he/she is defeated...the way they are doing it now, feels like an assembly line of villains, it loses its luster.

I will keep trying to watch it, but each week is becoming less enjoyable to me.

Gotham on the other hand, I'm so addicted to that show...I literally can't wait to see what Oswald/Pinguin does next, lol.

[Hector]

And don't get me wrong, I think the young actor playing Barry Allen is dead on, perfectly cast, and he's a good actor

[thunderbolt]

I like the villain of the week, it hearkens back to both the silver age comics and the Batman tv show. As for the deus ex machina creation of a lot of these guys, I really don't care for that aspect. At least Cold didn't get his powers from the particle accelerator like all the others so far, except the unseen Heatwave. Dr. Wells being a evil guy with an agenda from the future is intriguing, but I was hoping he would turn out to be Rip Hunter.

[johnnystorm]

For me, the villain of the week angle is great. Much rather see that then the soap opera aspects they insist on loading these shows with. Arrow in particular is getting bad for that.

[Hector]

The problem with the villain of the week for me is that there's no time in developing the character...you basically get a cardboard one dimensional baddie...in he comes, out he goes...after a while, it's just uninteresting to me.

My humble opinion of course.

[thunderbolt]

Captain Cold will be back with Heatwave in tow, so that's one repeat. And they do seem to be building up Grodd and Zoom.
