I feel like maybe Barry taunting his former bully by talking to him with his mask off is going to bite him in the ass when the inevitable prison break happens.
Totally!
Buffy: A Guide, but no water or food. So it leads me to the sacred place and then a week later it leads you to my bleached bones? Giles: Buffy, really. It takes more than a week to bleach bones.

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

I almost feel like it's a waste to have Martin on a CW TV series rather than off winning a Tony on Broadway, but then I wouldn't be able to watch him in new material on a weekly basis.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
My feeling about Wells is that he thinks he is a good guy, but is so ruthless and indifferent to collateral damage in the course of achieving his (laudable) goal that he is not.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
The Flash: so that red/yellow blur at the end has to be Harrison Wells, right? Which makes him... Reverse Flash? Professor Zoom? (OK, I actually don't know the difference between the two since I've been trying not to read up too much on the comics canon in order not to get spoiled for the show.) Or maybe show just *wants* us to think it is Wells. But honestly, who else could it be?
They were selling it pretty hard this episode. If it's not, then one has to wonder who else even knows that Joe is investigating the case again. If they don't explain that if it's not Wells, I'm going to be very disappointed.

(That's not a spoiler; just speculation based on the GIANT FLASHING SIGN of Nothing Can Go Wrong When You Store Metahuman Villains In One Place.)
Yeah. As emotionally satisfying as I'm sure that was for him (and vicariously for Cisco and Caitlin) my thought was "You never taunt the super-villain, Barry. They ALWAYS escape!"
My feeling about Wells is that he thinks he is a good guy, but is so ruthless and indifferent to collateral damage in the course of achieving his (laudable) goal that he is not.
I think he's almost definitely evil, but he has a very specific plan in mind for Barry, and will do whatever it takes to make sure he gets him there.

Arrow:
Poor Ollie. Palmer steals his company, his love interest and his salmon ladder.
Or at least I'd say "Poor Ollie" if it wasn't his own stupid fault.
I will give the actress playing Cupid credit, she managed to play the over-the-top crazy without going completely into camp territory.

Glad to see Felicity's reaction to the salmon ladder is much like mine ... ours?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
They didn't actually show him doing the ladder, though.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Casting rumors for Jessica Jones and Luke Cage.
Not sure if Krysten Ritter is right for the role, but I like Krysten Ritter.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
My thoughts exactly, Tom.
