This show is really awesome, I enjoyed Caitlin working outside star labs , but further more the scenes with Barry and his father or Joe. Sure we can't outrun pain, Next week we will have Felicity, maybe we'll get hints for the big crossover in december
I continue to love Joe/Barry and Barry/Papa Allen relationships they're perfect.
The Wells mystery is my favorite aspect of the show, I'm just so darn curious...it really does seem as though they're setting him up as Reverse Flash.
Really enjoyed the Caitlin flashbacks, I liked Ronnie and Ronnie/Caitlin. I think this character fits Robbie Amell better than his role on TTP.
Eddie is growing on me, and I like Eddie/Iris, unfortunately I like it because of Eddie, they need to give me a reason to like Iris for Iris and not because of who she is to Joe, Barry and Eddie. Hopefully this journalist/blogger hunting the streak will help.
I liked it. It was kinda slow, which ironically, was kinda nice. Haha. I enjoyed the flashbacks, and the diversity of all of them, getting everyone's POV. (Can't wait when it happens on Arrow) At the end iI yelled, "I KNEW IT!. I KNEW YOU PLANNED THE WHOLE THING!" It popped in my head once he was giving that speech. I literally send "wow, he planned the whole thing, what a bastard." HahahaHahahaha. And Caitlin is okay, but seriously the actress needs to work on her "crying acting" b/c iI just kept thinking, wow that was bad, someone wanna jab her with a needle to really make her cry? Lol I'm sorry iI was just not feeling it. But iI do like the actress though. Seeing Robbie on my screen again was nice, and i'mI'm anxious to see more of him. Other than that, not much to say. Just that....NEXT WEEK'S PROMO! I've been dying for this episode.
Favorite lines tonight...."It's the one with Big Belly Burger....I eat." Hahahaha Arrow reference/same universe reference, loved it. I cheered in that moment. Lol
"My lungs feel like that time iI first tried a cigarette. Yeah as a teen, iI lived life dangerously." HAHAHA yeah ok Barry...
One last thing, am I the only one not shipping Barry/Caitlan??? I honestly don't see it, and idk how some fans are shipping them so quickly when we're only in episode 3??? It's a real...."seriously??" Moment. = /
I liked it. Preferred the last episode but I still thought this was really good. Didn`t really care for Iris`s story-line though lol. but gotta have that CW-ness I guess. I liked the flashbacks a lotand Harrison is just so creepy lol.
this show is getting better each week. if Ronnie wasnt showing up I would put Barry and Caitlin together.Cheers to the show being picked up for a full season. 23 episodes!
A great episode that refined the supporting characters of Cisco and Caitlin!
I love that we got more character depth on Caitlin since she always keeps things to herself. Her opening up to Barry about her personal life was really sweet. Hopefully they can become really great friends in the future or something more.
Once again, Jesse L. Martin and John Wesley Shipp gave such an emotional performance. They never fail to impress me. The scene where Joe went to go see Henry in Iron Heights and he apologizes and knows Henry is innocent, then Henry comes back and says it doesn't matter if Joe never believed him because Joe always believed in Barry made me smile so hard. I'm really glad they're on great terms.
Joe knowing the whole time that Iris and Eddie are dating and called them terrible liars was hilarious XD. Papa West is always watching!
We didn't get that much backstory on Ronnie but it's understandable considering that he will come back in the future episodes. Can't wait to see him again!
I loved Harrison Wells saying "I feel like I waited for this day for centuries!" XD
That joke strengthens my suspicion he is from the future, but which future Flash character? Thawne is Professor Zoom, right? I'm not familiar with the comics, but I think he has to be one of the future speed heroes or a descendant of Barry...
- The actor who plays the Misy would have made a dandy Observer! - Something traveling over 300mph should be feltwhen running past people .... right? XD - I liked Caitlin and Cisco more in this episode. Not as over-the-top. - Jessie L Martin continues to impress! - Poor Barry out with Iris and she tells Thawne, she isn't doing anything... "Just out with Barry." Ugh!
I enjoyed this episode more than the last one since it showed us different aspects of the characters... The last episode felt too much like the pilot to me.
Never happen. I speak only for myself, but I will always be shocked by shippers shipping. It doesn't make sense to me and reading about it actually lessons my enjoyment of this site.
I have no problem with people shipping....as I occasionally like a particular couple.....however, it is the negative comments people throw if one does not share their point of view....we can all just be friends and agree to disagree. Its just kinda civility 101.
That being said, this site is awesome...as most folks are just friendly and are overall TV lovers first and foremost.
I thought the epi was a bit ho hum for my tastes, given the awesomeness of the previous two. However, I loved the backstory and the character development of this episode.
I'm constantly impressed by the effects on this show. They just keep getting better and better. I hope they make some headway on Barry's mom's murder as I don't keep hearing they're going to find her killer and get his dad out in every episode…lol. Iris needs a decent storyline as does her boyfriend. He's Pete from Smallville…lol…Someone give him something to do please! I feel he can be more than a one dimensional character. The weakest ep so far but still pretty decent. this show continues to impress on many levels. And now Grant Gustin can say "nana" to all the haters…lol.
I really don't have an issue with people shipping exactly... My issue is that shipping seems to almost always lead to inane comments and rival factions arguing.
Sometimes the shipper comments or shipper wars get to be too high a percentage of the comments for a given series and it annoys me. I usually stop looking at posts for that series. Seems like CW shows are the worst. ABC too, but luckily it's been years since I liked an ABC show enough to look at that show's posts! XD
I hear you and am with you. Its all about balance, and respect. It pains me how some just don't get that. Sigh.
(**gasp**) No ABC shows at all....omg....how do you do it? I am addicted to agents of shield, shonda Thursdays, nashville, forever and modern family. Grey's is really good right now. Meredith and nuSister. I'm on it and about it!
Also....been thinking and you tell me...do you think that being a non-shipper is in a way a ship of some sort? As it is advocating that a couple not be together.......I would be interested in your PoV.
It was a catch up epi for possible new viewers for sure. However, the backstory of the characters was a good thing. Also Joe meeting Barry's dad....was pretty good.
Now see just like I was afraid of, tonight was my first time checking out the Flash, cause if heard so much about it, and just like that I knew it, I'm so in dammit I will be coming back:)
I have tried a number of ABC shows over the past years, but they always seem too gimmicky or too soap opera-like for my tastes.
I cannot stand Shonda shows so it is easier for me! XD I actually tried Grey's for a short while, but it devolved into sappy love triangles and melodrama. SHIELD bores me for some reason despite 3 attempts to watch it.... Nashville was ruled out due to a strong dislike of the Country Western music and culture....
I did watch Castle for a couple seasons but got bored with it. Too gimmicky and too procedural.
However, I do like Forever so far... just not enough to actually look at posts about it. It is too procedural in format for me to really care about the show one way or another I guess. I'll probably grow bored of it by season's end.
I'll agree, for me it was my first time viewing and I felt like I got caught up on this viewing and for me it worked, with that said I'm going to be a regular now I liked it;)
pretty good ep, liked the dropping the seed for the eventual appearance of Firestorm as was announced earlier. interesting with Dr Wells apparently being the Reverse Flash and Iris's boyfriend having the actual name of the Reverse Flash iirc... the cotw was just ok, nothing special but the good part was getting the backstory of the accelerator mishap (that I'm guessing we'll find out that Wells sabotaged to explode) and getting a little more into the characters.. a few rough acting performances tonight, but nothing I can't overlook
Way to go Barry for catching the sad moment for Caitlin and bailing her out, Barry did well. They had some good moments together. - it was nice seeing Caitlin's flashback. And nice seeing Robbie Amell again.
Also the episode did well in displaying some more of The Flash's abilities. I especially loved the You Can't see me ability.
I don't even want to think about what Wells is up to good or bad or neutral, doesn't matter, I'm just enjoying the show atm, whatever comes let it come, it should all work out.
Liked it quite a bit. Still feels like it's finding it's feet. Much as I like the characters and am writing...It's not making me a rabid fan as Outlander
Once again the elders in this show are awesome. Joe, Henry and Wells make this show. That scene at Iron Heights between Joe and Henry was great. Wells is looking more and more evil as the show moves on. I love it.
Cisco impressed me this episode. His friendship with Caitlin is solid. I like actor very much. Robbie Amell still can't act well. I hope he is better as firestorm. But the flashbacks really gave depth to Caitlin. Caitlin and Barry understands each other due to their loss. Barry is so sweet you can't help but love him.
I want to but I can't hate Eddie Thawne. First episode he looked like a doucebag but last two episodes he is so cool. He is sweet with Iris and friendly with Barry. Det. Joe telling Iris and Eddie he knew all along about their relationship was so funny. Jesse L. Martin is wonderful.
I loved Caitlin I really do which im sure will really piss me off when they make her a batshit crazy supervillain so I'm weary toget to attacked to her. As for the case of the week not as great as last week but iI like the idea of keeping them under star labs since that guy was already dead there was no way they could actually put him down. Grant is doing a really awesome job as Barry and I love the whole cast
Wells is a character who isn't in the comics lol They basically said it when Tom was casted as him that no matter how much google you use you won't find anything on Wells lol.
You should read on Kid Flash boy his family tree is complicated lol.
NOTE: Name-calling, personal attacks, spamming, excessive self-promotion, condescending pomposity, general assiness, racism, sexism, any-other-ism, homophobia, acrophobia, and destructive (versus constructive) criticism will get you BANNED from the party.
If if didn't already ship Caitlin and Barry then this episode would have done it.
ReplyDeleteThe fiances alive. I'm calling it now.
ReplyDeleteThis show is all kind of awesome.. im so happy that's going to last longer ... one of the best cw show eveeer .
ReplyDeleteI knew it :P
ReplyDeleteThat makes two of us ;-)
ReplyDeleteThis show is really awesome, I enjoyed Caitlin working outside star labs , but further more the scenes with Barry and his father or Joe. Sure we can't outrun pain,

Watch out. There's a lot of people out there who believe you're automatically a racist if you don't like Iris.

the comment had nothing to do with race.
ReplyDeletelol yeah I don`t really get people who ship Barry and Caitlin already 3 episodes in. It`s like a guy and girl can`t be friends.
ReplyDeletewith ya there since the first episode enjoyed seeing him on screen more than I did with him and Isis
ReplyDeleteSo you're saying, they don't like Barry and Iris, and automatically jump to Caitlin?? without any type of development in the first 3 Episodes??
ReplyDeleteDo you ship at all? I mean in general?
Smh, well if she becomes the supervillian she's supposed to be before this series wraps, iI don't see them shipping them much longer.
ReplyDeleteI loved Harrison Wells saying "I feel like I waited for this day for centuries!" XD
ReplyDeleteThat joke strengthens my suspicion he is from the future, but which future Flash character?
Thawne is Professor Zoom, right? I'm not familiar with the comics, but I think he has to be one of the future speed heroes or a descendant of Barry...

lol true
ReplyDeleteNever happen.
ReplyDeleteI speak only for myself, but I will always be shocked by shippers shipping.
It doesn't make sense to me and reading about it actually lessons my enjoyment of this site.
Most definitely!
ReplyDeleteI am in total agreement.
ReplyDeleteI have been know to yes. Did my time in the trenches during Buffy in particular.
ReplyDeleteBut I don't like to fly my colors here at STV in the interest of keeping the discussion neutral and civil.
Besides, shipping got about 100x more scarier with social media. In the old days the crazy was at least contained on forums.
I feel like I have come across them in the Sleepy Hollow area. LOL
ReplyDeleteIris has no chemistry with anyone. IMO
I am in agreement with you. Caitlin is still grieving ... not seeing her with anyone at the moment.
ReplyDeleteTo be fair, they don't even know one another that well to be best friends...IMO...but it will come I am sure.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on the scariness of shipping. People be getting crazy over it.
ReplyDeleteI will say, I do like good couples.
Of course he's alive. ..he's FIRESTORM.
ReplyDeleteI have no problem with people shipping....as I occasionally like a particular couple.....however, it is the negative comments people throw if one does not share their point of view....we can all just be friends and agree to disagree. Its just kinda civility 101.

The weakest ep so far but still pretty decent. this show continues to impress on many levels. And now Grant Gustin can say "nana" to all the haters…lol.
Felt like a filler to me too. Slow-moving on most fronts and repeating things from previous eps. Already looking forward to the next one.
ReplyDeleteShrugs. Alright. Lol I have nothing to say. And it's only b/c I'm getting really really tired. (Long day)
ReplyDeleteI really don't have an issue with people shipping exactly...

ReplyDeleteThanks, I was really pleasantly surprised did not expect that I'd enjoy it as much as I did I'm going to definetly be tuning in:)

"- The actor who plays the Mist would have made a dandy Observer" THANK YOU so I wasn't the only one who thought he looked like an Observer!
ReplyDeleteCool!
ReplyDeleteI wonder how and when will be Iris meet Caitlin
ReplyDeleteneither suit him.
ReplyDeleteI was screaming in my head saying September Lives!! lol but when they got in closer it wasn't him lol
ReplyDeleteWells is a character who isn't in the comics lol They basically said it when Tom was casted as him that no matter how much google you use you won't find anything on Wells lol.
ReplyDeleteYou should read on Kid Flash boy his family tree is complicated lol.
I looked at that family tree!
ReplyDeleteA lot of heroes and ya... complicated!
Reverse Flash is in that Tree lol
ReplyDeleteHeroes and Villains I should have wrote. :)
ReplyDeleteFelicity canon couple is set up!
ReplyDeletepretty sweet the ice and fire reference
I hope it will be soon and give more story to Iris, se don't know so much about her
ReplyDelete
