The Flash became the highest rated program on the CW Network. Sure, the love interests grate on me. And the villains need an upgrade. But Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) is convincing as an average guy who suddenly acquires super-speed. In tonight’s episode, The Flash will try to time-travel into the past to attempt a rescue of his mother who was murdered by the Reverse-Flash. I’m guessing a cliff-hanger will occur. Have you been watching The Flash? What do you think of this series? It’s been renewed for a second season.
I’m watching it. I’m about three episodes behind, though, so I need to catch up.
Bill, it gets better as the series progresses.
I’ve been taking in random samplings of the hero series, except (to my mild regret) watching AGENT CARTER go from pretty brilliant at pilot to pretty weak by season’s end (perhaps next season will be better). Love interests grate? Haven’t seen enough of them to get much of a sense beyond Cute Young Women…and even in only a few, I get the sense they aren’t developed much more than that except as occasional plot-drivers.
Todd, I’m with you on AGENT CARTER. The writing needs to get a lot better. But I love the cast and the retro setting.
