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.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
So, we just got Kid Flash and Jesse Quick, right?
And Cisco is THE BEST.
Also, how damn far apart are the timelines of Arrow and The Flash? Because Barry had his speed back at the end of last week's Arrow. (I know, the problem is actually that the show tried to be clever by filming that "6 months from now" clip and then they had to live with it. Still, y'all done messed up real good.)
We were all wondering how Wally gets his powers (not to mention Jesse Quick), Now we know.
Ha! Nailed it!
Of course, it was so obvious to anyone who reads the comics that Inspector Clouseau could've figured it out.
Henry's mother's maiden name was Garrick. That has to be a clue, right?
DC can't keep any of their shows in-synch. Remember Barry disappeared to (and returned from) his adventures with Supergirl after they already happened on the latter show.
I agree that being tied to the flash-forwards made for some weird personality shifts on Arrow last week. But yeah, I can only assume last week's episode of Arrow takes place after Barry gets back from Speed Purgatory (or where ever he got zapped to) next week.
Henry's mother's maiden name was Garrick. That has to be a clue, right?
It HAS to be. This show is not good at subtle.
Maybe the man in the mask is Henry II, who changed his name to Jay Garrick for reasons and was the original Earth II Flash, captured by Zoom who then stole his identity.
It's an old DC thing. Clark was Ma Kent's maiden name.
Henry II as in Henry Plantagenet, King of England? Is Eleanor d'Aquitaine there, too? I would watch the heck outta that!

They fight crime and bicker incessantly about the succession!
Watching last night's Flash now. I had not taken notice last week that Tom Cavanaugh whispers that whole build another particle accelerator line to Barry. Good Lord, Tom Cavanaugh whispering is my new aesthetic.
I feel like The Flash is just a mess these days. Building a new particle accelerator is not a good plan, and they go back and forth between referring to S1 "Wells" as Wells or Thawne depending on what the plot calls for as if they're interchangeable. Like Earth 2 Wells feeling guilty about what the other him did, even though his real Earth 1 counterpart was an innocent man based on what we know so far.
They couldn't get Constantine back for Arrow? Weak.
I feel like The Flash is just a mess these days.
Thinking about the timeline of the funeral on Arrow, given the fact that Barry is on some other Earth now, I think Laurel's funeral was supposed to have happened before Barry lost his speed.
