flash Season 3

[enyawd72]

I love the Flash. I really do. But so help me I think I threw up a little every time someone opened their mouth and started singing.

If the show is only going to last another season...I hope they fulfill my one dream. Please have John Wesley Shipp appear as an alternate Earth Barry Allen in the 90's Flash suit. They HAVE to do this...

As my ol' chum Fred would say, "Oh, for corn's sake Ethel."

On the upside, it's nice to see that Kai made it out of Mystic Falls in one piece.

The Glee watching side of my family adored it, me and the boy tried to be excused. We were denied.

The ending had me burying my head in one of our couch pillows. I thought to myself, "Now there's evidence they know it's not being picked up for a fourth season." Alas they ARE picking it up for a fourth season. And to think that..."singing"... is available for digital download? WOW... I bet I know what the bonus track is... "Final nail in the coffin". They should have included the AT&T singer doing " I don't want to miss a thing." The overload of camp might have made better sense.

Dear Lord... Eh... Barry, keep your day job. If ever there was a cringe worthy moment in this series, they found it...coated in cheese. On a side note I did like the special guest hero. He was cool. That's about where it ends for me.

"I'm You're Super-Friend." I'm still watching!

Here's a spoiler-free review of tonight's episode. Got a "Good, but not Great" from the reviewer. I'll probably still tune in because it sounds like a nice departure. I loved the "Brave and the Bold" ep with The Music Meister so I'm interested in seeing this show's take on the character. Looks like Victor Garber and John Barrowman are in the episode, too.

‘Flash’/’Supergirl’ crossover is good, but it’s not great

I'm sick of Iris already. I hope Savitar takes her out. This is the same Clark/Lana BS we went through on Smallville...Oh, how I wanted Lana to die.

[Makernaut]

I've kinda bailed on the show and I was a big fan during Season 1. My interest started tapering off in Season 2 and I don't think I've seen more than 2 eps this season.

Tonight's episode looks kind of interesting, though. The Music Meister is the villain and Melissa Benoist is in the episode. So, I'll probably tune in because even though I've lost interest in both "Flash" and "Supergirl", I'm still a big fan of Gustin and Benoist and think they are even more interesting when both of them are on the screen together. (That's probably my biggest complaint about either show...they are wasting two very strong lead talents with crappy supporting cast/characters and storylines.)

This seems like it might be fun. Linked story includes trailers for the ep.

Barry has become the TV equivalent of 90s/early 2000s comic Batman. Learning the same lesson over and over and over again.

I did like Jay's appearance, but yeah, I'd rather see him and Barry take out Savitar.

The whole bit with him and Iris at the end made no sense for either character. It was just a check box they had to fill in "Oh yeah, changed their relationship dynamic again. Done".

Agreed. Of all the fast heroes ( avoiding the "S" term out of respect, Brian), they trade the super useful Jay Garrick for the completely useless Wally West? Jay, who seems to have some knowledge of Savitar & the workings of the Speed Force. And then Wally needs time to get over his experiences, so he can't even suit up. Wow, good deal there Team Flash.

Then they ship out Jesse Quick, who at least is interesting. At least they had her dump Wally for now, as their whole relationship was contrived. What the series needs is a huge housecleaning. Get rid of Joe, Wally, Julian, fake HR. Any other hanger ons, and the whole Iris relationship.

I also really despise the whole Speed Force concept. I prefer the speed be a power that the hero has within, as opposed to some energy that can be tapped into like a well. Worse is it's now some kind of sentient place that can only seem to communicate in riddles spoken by dead people. With rules too, like trading people one for one yet. Meh.

I guess worse for me was with the snow today, I was catching up on tv, and watched a bunch of Netflix Daredevil episodes before Flash came on. Was like eating steak then switching to cotton candy.

Tonight's episode was super boring.

[palitoy]

Does anyone else cringe at the words "Speedster" or is it just me?

Totally don't care about Savitar, don't care who he is, he looks terrible too.

[emeraldknight47]

The multiple speedsters don't annoy me nearly as much as the whole Barry-Iris romance stuff (they're veering dangerously close to "Dawson's Creek" territory with this stuff) and the fact that Barry seeing Savitar kill Iris has become the impetus (not to mention the opening narrative) of the show. People who found Kristin Kreuk annoying and a story-killer as Lana Lang in SMALLVILLE should be seeing the same thing with Iris on THE FLASH. At this point, I'm ready for Savitar to do her in or have her just get whisked off to an alternate Earth just so we can get the show back on track. The Kid Flash story isn't doing much for me either as his costume, as Tom pointed out, is kinda clunky and ugly, and his personality and motivations are, by-and-large, very shallow and largely self-serving.

[Earth 2 Chris]

Ratings may be down, but I'm enjoying the second half of the season far more than the first. There are still pacing issues, and incredibly dumb moments from supposedly intelligent characters. Barry just stands there for two minutes while Wally is pulled into that portal? Don't you say you're "the Fastest Man Alive" on every episode, Barry?

I do agree they desperately need to give the speedster villains the boot next season. We've had three evil mystery speedster as the big bad for three consecutive seasons. A Rogue Team-Up season would be a nice change of pace for instance!
