The visuals in this episode were outstanding⦠the action, the shot of Flash running up buildings then jumping off to snatch that punk out of the little ship⦠it makes me want a āThe Flashā video game that much more.
At this point I canāt even blame Barry anymore and just blame the writers. Itās just one of those points where the character can only be blamed so much when written so poorly.
I thought it was a good episode for several reasons.
A legit non-metahuman threat. They fucked over Weather Wizard and Mirror Master.
Gypsyās fine ass.
Every powered character (minus Caitlin) working together, including that badass takedown.
Kadabra being a future criminal with some backbone, dude basically spat in Barryās face instead of doing some final shitty heel-turn before his supposed death. I hope he lives btw.
It all started with Eobard Thawn. Blame Eobard Thawn. If he canāt take an L losing to Flash then going back in time to kill his mom and such, then yeahā¦
So⦠if Savitar ends up being Future Flash, does that mean thatās why Barry went missing in the future? like in the true timeline he would end up being the villain?
May is the third of the ratings sweeps month (the others being Feb and Nov).
Since they only have 22/23 episodes and the season usually begins early October, they have to have at least 10 weeks of breaks.
Since may is a ratings month, it makes sense that the last few new episodes would premiere in late April early may.
Some syndicated shows lback in the day like Star Trek TNG used to have at least 26 eps/season so the amount of breaks would be less.
But it seems 22 /season is the industry standard now.
