There's so many speedsters in this show it's loving ridiculous. I know Barry is basically God when he isn't playing retard but at least try a season without having to resort to a bunch of speedsters to make anything a threat.

Grodd is one of the most sympathetic characters on the show and would probably make a better hero than Barry frankly.

Velour muscles make the hero.

There is a story that when they made the Phantom movie in 1996, they produced a Batman '89 type sculpted muscle suit for Billy Zane, only to discover when Billy Zane arrived on set that he had spent the previous year working out and was actually in better shape than the suit would have made him look.

Like Barry, Grodd was manipulated by the Reverse Flash and transformed into something powerful but dangerous. Unlike Barry, Grodd wasn't transformed into a villain.

I mean, that's kind of the_phantom.txt :shrug:

Best take on the Phantom is Peter Chung's weird rear end interpretation. Dude's art and aesthetics was made for that. The singer Deborah Harry voiced (Vaingloria? I think?) still creeps me out to this day.

Shouldn't Barry be rapidly forgetting old poo poo and recalling new poo poo?

He's already forgotten how to be a good forensic scientist. He used to be super bright in his day job but now when it comes to doing actual police work he comes across as ... well that guy in the "but then I got high" song.

My brother was catching up on The Flash on Netflix and had this happen:



I mean, it mostly checks out:

a) The Flash did overthrow an evil doctor
b) He tried to save his mom
c) The Flash's personality, much like Sonic, can be obnoxious at times
d) The Flash and Sonic both never learn from their mistakes and are as dumb as a bag of rocks

My favorite part: the team's solution to not having Harrison Wells around all the time they are apparently going to audition other HWs from the multiverse

I really want them to do a Wells like that one crazy Riker from the Star Trek episode with infinite Enterprises. "I won't go back, Darhk's plan succeeded the world was destroyed, the only survivors are hunted like dogs for Thawne's amusement, you can't send me back!" "Yeah... we were hoping for a funnier Wells this season..."

It's a small thing but it would be nice if they just staggered Barry's audio by a second or two.

They've been perfectly capable, many hints have been shown. Unfortunately the writers basically refused to do so.

So Mirror Master got his power because he was on a mirror when the explosion occurred. I guess he was lucky he wasn't taking a dump when it happened.
