Flash was AWESOME tonight!

[Rick Hodge]

Golden Glider's gold gun was a bit...silly, but would you have rather she wore her ice skates?

She was portrayed here like the old GL villain Goldface, whom Johns roped into the Flash Rogues Gallery as a supporting player during his run.

Chris

Maybe what Cisco made was a pyrite gun or a gold plating gun. But, I agree, she does seem like a cross between Golden Glider and Goldface.

So, with the Tricksters this week, that leaves Mirror Master, the Top, and Abra Kadabra as major villains to be done.

Goldface is Goldface--I'd honestly rather have seen Lisa portrayed more traditionally, maybe skating combined with martial arts. She & Leonard were the perfect complimentary team in the comics.

Tonight's show...All I can say is Wow! I cannot believe how much they fit in one hour.

[MIB41]

I was not only wowed at yet the next curve ball on Wells, but the previews for NEXT week's show. Talk about cramming allot! I saw Arrow, Atom, Firestorm, and some kind of show down with Wells. This is just THE BEST hero series ever made. Just off the chain incredible. And Mark Hamill... LOL! What a ball the writers had with him. They let him cover EVERY iconic character in one form or another... from heavily leaning on the Joker's voice to borrowing lines from Empire... even having a one on one with the original Flash from the 90's series. It was just off the wall awesome.

The Trailer is ALL the rest of season one episode that start up on April 14th.

A stupid thunderstorm had to ruin the last 10 minutes for me.

[Earth 2 Chris]

^Ouch. That sucks. Sorry.

Last night may have been the best one yet...and that's saying something!

SPOILERS


I wonder if the revelation about Eobard Thawne taking Wells' appearance may somehow allow the producers to keep Tom Cavanaugh in the cast as a regular character, after all of this blows up. Maybe an alternate Wells, or a Wells plucked from the past? These guys keep throwing us all kinds of curve balls, especially with this character, and they all work! Will Barry regret showing Eddie his secret ID? A few months ago I'd said "YES!", but now I have no idea! Of course Eobard stealing someone else's face comes from Mark Waid's excellent "The Return of Barry Allen". The actor even LOOKS like the comic book Eobard Thawne!

Unbelievably great episode! What next for Wells? I'm beyond trying to figure it out, every week the game changes!
Mark Hamill was fantastic, loved his Father line (even my wife got that one!).
Barry figures out a new power, one that will eventually lead him to Earth2 (oh, wouldn't a few episodes next season with Jay Garrick set during WW2 be fantastic?).
And the trailer for the rest of the year? I noticed Arrow is wearing the Ras Al Ghul outfit, and is this a super teamup? I'm thinking that the prison gets emptied?
Excellent work, Flash tv guys!

Two weeks 'til the next episode is a harder wait than the 30 days between issues...

[enyawd72]

Flash was incredible again as always...did anybody catch that other show that comes on after it?

It's a Marvel show...starts with an "S" I think...can't seem to remember.

[palitoy]

This is can't miss TV for my whole family.

So many fun easter eggs, I'm glad I made the kids watch the 90s Trickster episodes, they caught them all.

[Earth 2 Chris]

^Same here. We rewatched the Trickster episodes this weekend. It was great seeing Mayor Bellows as well. Where was Murphy?

I think it was more of a rest of the season preview but still a lot is going to be happening.

I loved it when Mark Hamil said the line "I am your father" and the way he talked and laughed he should and could still be cast as the Joker, I really think he could pull it off.

Best Hero series, I love it!

[Earth 2 Chris]

Hamill was fantastic. I give him credit for NOT really going into his Joker voice much. There is some overlap of course, but he really did portray an older version of his Trickster. Less manic, but still with a similar voice, delivery, etc. The "Father" line was hilarious. I hope we see more of him next season.

Can we please get Henry Allen out of prison? Isn't there enough circumstantial evidence to clear him now? It was great seeing Shipp and Hamill together, though. It was also nice to see Shipp out of his prison grays and in the lab, and meeting the rest of the cast. That handshake with Wells was positively chilling.

I have to give Grant Gustin major kudos. He portrayed Barry's very complex emotions concerning Wells with expert precision. There are so many levels of emotions going in that character at any moment he looks at, or interacts with Wells. This is far more interesting than fawning over Iris. The producers should just drop that bit, and focus on stuff more like this. Gustin can pull it off, ably.

he was the prison guard with the twizzlers for James Jesse.
