Flash Season Two

[johnnystorm]

The Wells part seemed unneccesary...unless it was a way to get Jay's powers jumpstarted. I don't believe for an instant that the serum is "out of his system".

Can somebody please LOCK THE DAMN DOOR at STAR Labs?!? This is pretty ridiculous at this point. I could buy that the regular team has pass cards , but not Patty yet.

Also thought everyone revealing ids to both Hawks right away was poorly written. As was the Kendra jumping bit and Oliver being so ok with it. I do like that the wings appear magically now, much easier than strapping them on. Do the Hawks now get display cases in the Arrowcave?

Thea is right, Cisco does need a haircut.

^Despite being a great episode, I was more flummoxed by Barry and Oliver unmasking in front of Hawkman, when they don't know if he's on their side yet or not! And after Barry gives Cisco crap for blowing the secret in front of Kendra!

But other than that...MAN...what a heck of an episode! Each commercial break was a season-ending worthy cliffhanger. These guys are on fire.

For the love of god almighty...Barry's cop girlfriend just barges into Star Labs and shoots Wells?????

I thought they had improved their security...how lame, lol.

It almost ruined what otherwise was a really good episode.

These writers, lol..

Looking forward to watching tonight's episode of THE FLASH tomorrow night when I can immediately follow it with the Arrow portion of the crossover.

If Robert Queen is Green Arrow on Earth 2, it makes perfect sense for Henry Allen to be the Flash. He just went off the rails somewhere.

^It could be that Shipp just isn't contracted for that many shows...or they could be using him in the Zoom suit for closeups...if that rumor somehow comes true.

Considering we know little about Henry Allen's life prior to the murder, maybe he liked to travel. I know if I was locked up for 20 years I'd maybe want to hit the road, see what I missed out on, find a woman. And he did pretty much see Barry pretty regularly it seems. Can't have gone too far away from Central City for Iris to bring him back so quick. And either they all know where he is at, or his phone number to call, so I don't think there is a secret agenda going on with him.

Last night's episode was another winner. Whomever is doing the CGI work on Grodd is knocking it out of the ballpark, especially on a weekly TV show budget. Was great to see of Gorilla City. I thought for a minute when they had opened the breach that as Grodd was being pulled through, he would grab Caitlyn and drag her along with him and, while on E2, she became Killer Frost. My one nitpick towards Grodd's departure would be: how was Barry able to completely stop his forward momentum when he shoved Grodd into the breach? He was going mighty fast.

Loved the first real glimpses of Hawkgirl.

Regarding Henry Allen, I'm not sure about what direction they're going with him yet. I think the E1 version is likely pretty safe. Adjusting to life outside of prison, I imagine, would take some getting used to since, in prison, your days and nights are fairly regimented and scheduled. Earth 2 Henry we know zero about, so, technically, he could be Zoom. If E2 Henry Allen lead a completely different life from his E1 counterpart, it could be that he never had children or even a wife and something particularly bad happened to him and, when he gained access to super-speed, he fell into the "power corrupting" checklist and became Zoom.

At the show's end, when Barry and Patty are talking, I almost thought, for a moment, that he was going to tell her that he's The Flash, just to let her know that they could trust one another.

^I think there is more to Henry's absence than what we've seen. But yeah, it seems very odd that he keeps leaving.

Yeah, with all the other convoluted stuff they reference, they could mention more that the Wells they knew wasn't REALLY Harrison Wells, but Eobard Thawne. For all they know, this Earth-Two Wells could be very similar to the REAL E1 verison.

I think that's more for the audience's sake but I feel it.

Good show, although I feel they don't know what to do with Henry.

I kept waiting for Henry to be revealed as an evil version from Earth-whatever. I do have one gripe that eats at me. I don't understand why they keep playing the Wells is sketchy card. E-1 Wells was a victim, and it's a sticking point for me that they don't refer to Eobard Thawne as the baddie. It's a small thing, but it bothers me.

THANK YOU!!! They keep referencing someone who they never met. Plus they blame him for the death of Barry's mom.

[EMCE Hammer]

Great episode. I am glad they didn't drag out Barry's funk over losing to Zoom, nothing like a pep talk from Henry Allen. I spent almost every commercial break explaining who Kendra Saunders/Hawkgirl is. Looking forward to the crossovers in two weeks.

Amen. I don't want to see them jump over into Smallville angst territory.
