Back in 1940 Gardner F .Fox created a unique superhero who was the fastest man alive after breathing in the fumes of Hard water for over a 12 hour period Jay Garrick discovered that he was the fastest man alive and decided to use these powers to help those in need. He called himself the Flash. With a WWI soldiers helmet on his head a red shirt with a lightening bolt on it he looked like Mercury. The Flash lasted in popularity until roughly 1952 when He and the rest of his team mates in the Justice Society of America made their last appearances. Afterwards the comics industry hit a massive slumpFlash Forward to 1956. The comics industry is in a slump. Nothing is selling well except for Superman Batman wonder woman Aquaman and Green Arrow. Aquaman and Green Arrow only survive because they are the back ups to superman and Batman. but still something needs to be done. Enter Julie Schwartz. Schwartz is a young editor at DC Comics and he is toying with a idea. To bring back the superheroes. He wants to revive the Flash but not Jay Garrick. He likes the idea of a fastest man alive doing impossible things . So he turns to Writer Robert Kanigher and Artist Carmine infantino. together in a weekend the three of them plot the origin story of the New Flash to be seen in DC Comics SHOWCASE PRESENTS. Showcase issue four hits the stands featuring the Flash and a new age begins the silver age of comics. The New Flash is police scientist Barry Allen who was struck by lightening while standing in front of a rack featuring every known chemical known to man. The lightening bolt strikes the chemicals and creates a reaction in Barry Allen it rewrites his DNA to give him incredible speed. The Flash was a Hit Barry Allen was a scientist and science featured a lot in the Flash stories. Now Flash forward to 1985 Barry Allen was killed during the Crisis on infinite Earths. And became DC's patron saint of noble heroes. During the early 90's a TV Show THE FLASH starred John Wesley Shipp as Barry Allen as the Flash and it did well. but it missed the boat in terms of characterization turning Barry Allen into a hip guy who worked hand in glove with Star LAbs and fought crime while sharing a love triangle with Two women. While the Shipp series was fun it wasn't the Flash ,Now DC is trying it again and pouring he Flash into the same mold as Green Arrow. While ARROW isn't Green Arrow from the comics it's a good solid show with great chracterizations. And a knack for telling a story. They borrowed the formula and poured the Flash into it making it almost a carbon copy of the Arrow. Grant Gustin's Barry Allen is young. Younger then Barry Allen originally was supposed to be. But he brings a freshness to it. And the fact is the show gives him a reason for being the Flash. Despite his being uncertain or his team in being uncertain. The first four episodes were highly enjoyable. And I look forward to seeing more of them. If they can keep up this pace they may truly have a winner here. Where Gotham and Arrow are gloomy and dark. The Flash is light and fun. And it's a good adventure show. Like I said if they keep the pace. And the invent full way of creating the Flash's famed rogues gallery. This will be a show to watch.

I'm a big fan of DC (and Marvel) comics and I was excited but cautious when they announced this show mainly for the fact that I wasn't sure they would pull off the effects required to make a convincing Flash with a TV budget but my worries were quelled from the first episode. Other than a few of the villains abilities, the special effects in this show are great, especially concerning The Flash himself.Aside from the show's capabilities visually, the story and various plot devices are fun and the characters are mainly likable. Obviously some shine through more than others (Barry Allen, Cisco, Detective West & Harrison Wells to name a few) but they all have their place in The Flash's team. Speaking of which, Tom Cavanagh may well play my favourite role of any TV show as the profoundly genius Harrison Wells and most of his story contributions are among the best in the show.The show does take a villain of the week format (similar to Arrow) for the majority of the episode's which can get a little tiresome (mainly with some of the less interesting villains) but the main story line of season 1 made for the most entertaining season of a TV show I've seen yet. If you are not aware this show does share it's universe with channel CW's other show Arrow, which is based on the DC character Green Arrow and without spoiling anything I thoroughly enjoyed the crossover episode and can't wait to see more of these in the future (I am also a big fan of Arrow as well).The show can seem silly at times when you see The Flash get hurt by some of the villains as sometimes a guy who can multiply himself but moves at regular human speed is somehow able to hit The Flash when really people look like they are moving in slow motion to him (as shown in the first episode). I mean he caught a bullet in the most recent episode in season 2 but somehow wasn't able to dodge a punch from a human moving at regular speed. Also Captain Cold and his Rogues are definitely a team of villains who come off better in the comic book than on the screen as you just don't buy The Flash being challenged by a team of standard humans with special guns (he could literally take the guns out of their hands before they could pull the trigger if he wanted). But hey, this is a show about a man who can run faster than the speed of light so you do have to be a little open-minded. :)All of that is a very small part of the show though and is probably just my overly analytical mind doing what it does... Believe me when I say it does not detract from how enjoyable this show really is. In summary, this show is excellent visually (especially for it's TV budget) and the story will keep you watching week to week with a smile on your face. I gave it a 10/10 as it is currently my favourite show on TV.

S01 E01 Do teen shows have any original script or do writers and producers hope that the audience is that young not to remember last ten years of TV? I actually thought of watching a parody of the childhood scene. Watching the first episode was like looking at some legal document form you have seen dozen times except now it is a new guy who filled out the form and yes I don't know him, but I'm pretty sure what he is about to say. The siblings relationship, the crime solving, parenting all seem to have sort of quotation attribute as if the characters saying the lines and acting to remind you what great shows you have already seen. And the series does a good job at that, creating a perfect pitched pop song for the people with amnesia. And of course he is a genius, potential leader with moral compass and superpowers coming from the sky and you don't have to go to the gym anymore. What happened to the looser becomes winner stereotype that we liked so much, are there only two alternatives? At least Peter-man was a guy to cheer for before he could climbed the walls and shoot webs.Characters are likable though, the future flash acts natural and actors surrounding seem to respond well to him, but the acts are so stereotypical that all credibility is lost before you even get excited about what to happen next. Instead you are watching a school play where kids are supposed to participate and you are sort of happy for them but unless your kid is in the play as well it is just not that entertaining as watching grown up stuff.The production seems to be solid though so the audiences should be hooked up and not much disappointed if they are in to this from the beginning and besides it's a part of the DC universe investment creating the vast network of superdudes and dudettes.Question is if everything looks and feels so staged and moving through the motions what do you have to look forward for to get invested in the show. One guess is special effects and more superpowers. When that exhilarates exponentially and toying with new abilities gets over saturated, what other focuses of the show will there be? Crime solving and personal agendas seem to be the most obvious choices. Comparing the one with True Detective and the other with maybe Six Feet Under, shallow predictability surrounded in blazing fireworks what I would expect from these TV series.But I could be wrong and people seem to like it, so the hell I know. And of course I should watch more than one episode, maybe 2 more...

This show is near perfect. Don't listen to the haters, it's awesome!

Looking at the reviews for The Flash here.....it's rather pathetic. People claim the writing sucks, the characters are silly, the story is lame.....well I am here to tell you that THEY ARE ALL WRONG!!!!The Flash is awesome! With only one season down it's proved it is a force to be reckoned with! It's got an amazing cast, incredible stories, visual effects, acting, cinematography. Season 1 is in my honest opinion the BEST LIVE ACTION SUPER HERO ADAPTATION EVER!A lot of the reviews on here say the Flash is really bad. Like one of the worst shows ever, claiming that the only reason it has a rating over 8/10 is because of fandom.....this isn't true. They are basing their hate of the show on the first few episodes. I can honestly admit that the first few episodes aren't that great, I can admit that. It felt like a mediocre series. However once you hit the mark of Episode 9.....that's when the real fun begins. The stories from there only get more involving, intriguing and overall amazing.The whole Reverse Flash Story is perfectly executed, with plot twists and turns thrown at you nearly every episode. It was hard to see what would happen next! It just kept getting better and better. The Flash actually stands up as being BETTER than Arrow....and far better than Smallville....regardless of what some reviews say.Needless to say The Flash is the definitive superhero ride. It's going to be tough for season 2 to match season 1 or even exceed it, but Arrow Season 2 did it, so why can't the Flash.I do have some negatives though, none of which are the show's characters, heck even Iris West is a cool character, far better than Arrow's Laurel Lance. Some of the negatives stem from the first few episodes which other reviewers use as a basis to criticise the entire show. Don't judge it all if you haven't seen it all...cause if you'd have seen it all....you'd realise your first thoughts were silly.The Flash to me is one of those rare 10/10 shows, like Game of Thrones, Battlestar Galactica, Lost and Doctor Who. It ranks up there for me in my top 10 shows of all time.

Worst kind of superhero show to date

I love Arrow. As far as superhero TV goes, it's my favorite so far. So when I heard the CW would be doing The Flash as well, I just about had a nerd-gasm.Then I watched the show.My rating breaks down as follows. 1 point for the attempt. 1 point for the costume. 1 point for the actor who plays Barry and for the nod in The Arrow. -7 points for the rest of the cast, the plot, the script, and the inability to do any sort of background research. For those of you who liked the show, stop now or forever hold your peace.No I'm not too familiar with the Flash's back-story. I was never really a fan. But even without all of that, you can tell that the plot was hatched from the mind of an eight-year old. I'm not going to be going off the original comics here, or calling what is cannon and what isn't. This is simply a tip of the hat to the men and women who will surely burn in the same level of hell as the Fox executives that canceled Firefly. The story is pathetic and the characters are lack-luster at the least.As far as I'm concerned, the only original character or actor who is worth anything in the show is Barry Allen. And this is achieved through sheer force of personality of the actor. The script-writers should all be shot in the kneecaps. His performance alone carries the entire show character wise. Despite the fact that he is simply and emulation of Oliver Queen from Arrow, he manages to at least give his character a slightly more "I have no idea what I'm doing" feel.Finally, my favorite part. The inability to be intelligent. Understand now, that this being a superhero show and thus prone to massive lapses in actual science, I have chosen to disregard most of those faults. Also, here comes the spoiler bit. It was mentioned, that along with his physical speed, his reaction time was increased. To this end, he was often shown to move at a normal speed while others moved in slow motion. And then he was often not. He is quite capable of "slowing time" to rescue people from a train wreck, but immediately afterwards loses the ability when a gun is pointed at him from a fairly reasonable distance. Maybe he just didn't want his friends being shot? But when that bad guy turns and walks away 30 seconds later, he also seems unable to run. The man was on foot and he simply walked away. In the third fight with the tin man (Was it chroma?) he easily moves out of the way of his punches, but ten seconds later, forgets how to let go of a pole and at the same time loses his abilities. That's all the continuity I'm gonna nitpick, on to the research.When training with the cops partner, he is told to "Punch as if your aiming for something six inches behind the target." As any good boxer knows, this is precisely the opposite of what you should do. Minimizing the contact time is essential to delivering the most force in a blow. And Barry, being a rather smart superhero, should know this. The writers have obviously never read so much as a paragraph on how to hit someone. Then there is the other things like police procedure no real precinct would ever allow, guns that fire too many bullets, a hummer that pulverizes two police cars and comes out with not so much as a dented fender, and other small things like that.Sorry these are all mostly from episode 6. It's that last one I saw and apparently all the rest are too forgettable for me to be able to refer back to them. Please send all hate mail to someone who is not me and all love letters to my username @gmail.com Now, I'm off to line the walls of my den. The network executive's heads are alphabetized, so CW goes before Fox...

The spoilers here are very minor and will not affect your experience if you're the average person. Still, better safe than sorry.WRITING (Conflicts, character actions, and dialogue)The writing in this show is less than impressive. There is no such thing as subtlety and half the dialogue is them throwing in the word "fast" for the hell of it. At one point, a character says to some random thug "Freeze! Now, get on the ground or do you wanna find out the hard way that you're not faster than a bullet?" I'm actually quite certain that the line verbatim is worse than that.A lot of plot points make no sense, and this is a huge problem with The Flash in general. The Flash is so fast that few conflicts are actually conflicts for The Flash, but rather than being creative and trying to think up interesting conflicts, they make the characters mentally incompetent to the point that The Flash, who can dodge a bullet, cannot dodge a punch. This actually becomes the main plot point of an entire episode. His inability to dodge attacks at normal speed makes no sense.Also, he has a tendency to block bullets that he doesn't even know are there. In one episode, he reaches behind him and pinches a random spot behind his neck and there just happens to be a bullet there for him to block! What an ESSENTIALLY IMPOSSIBLE COINCIDENCE! That is the laziest writing ever. "We need our character to get shot at without getting shot. Let's just have him randomly reach back for some reason, I'm sure we'll figure it out in post."There's an episode where he has to catch three motorcyclists. So, he runs to each of them, takes them to a police station and handcuffs them to a pole like he always does.I'm just kidding, he creates roadblocks where he thinks they'll go so that he can make all the motorcyclists go towards each other, and then they won't know how to move past each other, so they'll stop and the police can get them, at which point there will be an utterance of "Checkmate." That last bit is also not a joke. That happened. This is actually something that a producer and a team of writers looked over and said "Nothing wrong here. Onwards to production!"Also, this is My Little Pony with adults watching (so, just My Little Pony...with Rainbow Dash as the main character, I suppose). They like to have Aesops to each episode, and they're very basic moral lessons, or even broken ones, and then they'll do what's essentially a Dear Celestia inner monologue at the end of each episode. "Today, I learned..." Really? There's no subtlety in the character development at all. At certain points, I swear the characters literally look at the camera and go "I've really changed today. I used to think A and now I think B."Here's a bit of dialogue meant to be badass.(Right before Barry's about to leave.) "Barry." (Barry stops to see why his peer decided to stop him during this urgent mission.) "Yes?" "Run."CONSISTENCYThere is no consistency with Barry's powers. The effects of running really fast (friction, air compression, etc.) turn on and off randomly. At one point, a woman's shirt burns off despite that making no sense whatsoever, presumably because one of the writers thought that the actress was hot and knew he had the power to get her to reveal a little more.As I mentioned before, he just decides not to dodge punches. Or grab people's weapons to disarm them. He also runs slow enough for The Arrow to see him and aim at him when he's fast enough to see bullets. Bullets are so fast that 500 feet away, all you can do is blink before the bullet reaches you. Otherwise, you're completely still. Everything should be frozen for Barry, but he runs at the speed of a falcon from time to time.TECHNICALITIESBullets and guns. Don't expect them to make sense. Physics. Chemistry. Science in general. Tensile strength being a huge factor when hitting someone? Hearing a sonic boom from something that hasn't gotten to you yet? A gun that creates the heat of the Big Bang? A needle the heat of the Sun would kill everyone in at least a one thousand mile radius. A warehouse the heat of all the energy in the universe (which, you might notice, doesn't make sense) would evaporate all matter in the entire solar system. But no worries here, just some second degree burns (these were normal humans that got second degree burns, not The Flash, so no superpowers to withstand the energy of the entire universe there). 500 proof alcohol? Iron oxide being uncommon?Turn your brain off or get a hemorrhage. It's nice to see The Flash moving about with live actors (though poor actors), but that's it. That's the only pro. That's all this show gets.

oh lord..
