I’m up to Season 2 episode 2 but for all her talk Iris does very little to help.
Joe gives good advice, helps strategize, provides backup, connection to police
Scientists do science stuff.
One time she talked to him over the radio to save him from getting run over from the train but really she doesn’t add anything to the team.
“The 4 of us”. PLEASE, she does fuck all. She keeps saying inspiring shit but end of the day she just sits next to Cisco, Stein or Kaitlin and says “be careful” if that.
Also, should I watch Arrow? They keep bringing him in but I really don’t find myself intrigued enough to watch it.
You don’t need to Arrow but the shows crossover often. There’s been a few instances where something happened on Arrow that affects this one. Like how the villain Deadbolt ended up in the Pipeline without ever appearing on Flash. He was dealt with on Arrow. Likewise, Black Canary got her Canary Cry in a Flash episode.
I still think the decision for them to be raised as basically brother + sister then make her his love interest is pretty odd. Is this a new 52 storyline? I don’t recall this in the Flash comics but I never was a heavy reader of Flash anyway. I read Batman and Green Lantern mostly.
He didn’t grow up with Iris in the comics. The show used the retcon origin Geoff Johns gave him. Personally not a fan of DC’s most lighthearted hero getting a tragic origin.
It would be nice, since he is such a great actor. Its such a waste that he only got 1 season, but time shenanigans might still bring him back.
Moving on, the new zoom is seemingly some blend between The revival, jay garricks reverse flash enemy, and hunter Z. Edward Clariss, the presumed new zoom in the show, was originally an earth 2 character.
I mean, we’re likely going to see various reverse flashes come and go almost every season, and im kinda fine with that so far. lol.
It probably wouldve been better if they kept zoom, zoom, and The rival, the rival. Mixing the two kinda uses up hunter z as a character if they kill him off.
It kinda does take away from those moments. Its like, gtfo of here, this is for the intellectually elite. Not those who put their real name on a blog about a superhero, even after he told you no. lol. I’m sure it will change though.
Cant wait for linda park to come back on episode 4 i believe. Shes so hot. Olivia munn is from oklahoma city, and linda park is from tulsa. Its funny how two hot asians, who look similar in some ways, are both from oklahoma.
