I complained last week about the ridiculously unbelievable science in ‘The Flash’. Although this week’s episode may not rank much higher on the plausibility scale, it somehow plays better. Or perhaps I was just in a better mood an...
As a rule, I cut the “science” in comic book shows a lot of slack, but the technobabble in this week’s episode of ‘The Flash’ strains disbelief even by superhero standards.
Two lessons learned in the latest episode of ‘The Flash’: 1) Cisco is a dumbass, and 2) Caitlin is seriously cute when she has a little to drink, but absolutely cannot carry a tune.
Last week’s episode of ‘The Flash’ (yes, I’m late in catching up with last week’s TV) was a pretty good one overall, but is unfortunately undercut by the silliness of Flash’s latest villain.
‘The Flash’ zooms back from its winter break this week with a new episode that conveniently also serves as a ‘Prison Break’ reunion for guest stars Wentworth Miller and Dominic Purcell. What’s Sarah Wayne Callies up to these days ...
While it’s not officially being called a winter finale, this week’s new episode of ‘The Flash’ is the last until January 20th. With all my shows on break, what will I watch for the next month? Fortunately, this show delivers one o...
Part 2 of this week’s big Flash/Arrow crossover continues on the show I don’t usually watch and don’t particularly have much interest to watch, but I’m willing to give it another shot.
As ‘The Flash’ races through its first season, the show is also speeding through a bunch of common superhero tropes, from the origin story to the “hero loses his powers” bit to, now, the inevitable teaming-up with another superher...
It’s a common trope in superhero stories that, at some point, the hero will lose his powers for a time and have to defeat a villain without them. Since this was inevitable anyway, at least ‘The Flash’ gets it over with fairly earl...
As much as I enjoy ‘The Flash’, the Iris character is becoming a real drag. She seems to be just about the only person in Central City who doesn’t know that her own best friend is the superhero she’s obsessed with, and this week s...
The latest episode of ‘The Flash’ finally addresses a lingering question that had been bugging me about the show: Why is Barry the only meta-human affected by the dark matter explosion who hasn’t turned out to be a psycho or a cri...
After last week’s kind of disappointing episode, ‘The Flash’ bounces back with perhaps the show’s best yet. (Admittedly, we’ve only had four episodes so far.) In addition to a small fan service crossover stunt, we’re introduced to...
