Yeah, pre-Crisis, Earth 3 Flash would be Johnny Quick, but with this show, who knows? I have no idea where this will be going.

King Shark was awesome though!

I think Zoom and dead Garrick are both Earth 2 Garrick

Everyone on the show is Jay Garrick.

I'm gonna throw in my guess and say the guy in the mask in the cage is Earth 2 Oliver Queen...and I have no basis for that whatsoever.

It could be a completely different speedster in the mask we haven't discussed. The DC universe has dozens of speed characters. Outside of Superman, this CW show could use any of them.

Yes, but the fact that he was spelling out "Jay" suggests that is probably who he was. Better question, if that's who he is, why is Zoom keeping him alive?

We don't know this. He could have meant Zoom was Jay. Maybe he's a villain like Savitar or Johnny Quick?

This show is so great! I can't believe I'm talking about the multiverse and different earths with my kids!

I think zoom is hunter zolomon from earth 3 and he wants all the speed to conquer all the universes.

I think we can safely assume supergirl is not on earth 2 otherwise she'd be taking care of zoom?

It's already been confirmed that Supergirl exists in a parallel universe. She is not part of the Arrowverse.

She exists on a parallel Earth where Superman is apparently a bad superhero that allows Kryptonians to run wild.

Also love the scene where King Shark ripped the roof off the West House. And Joe's reply. HA!
The drame between Barry and Wally was uneceassry.
The King Shark attack on the house was all kinds of awesome, and also really highlighted just how BIG King Shark is. I really enjoyed seeing Diggle and how amazed he always looks whenever the Flash does his thing.

I am a HUGE Marvel fan (I lean more Marvel than DC when it comes to fanboy love), but I just had to drop Agents Of Shield because it was a real chore to get though each episode, but with The Flash if I am behind a few eps I want to binge watch to get caught up right quick.

Fun as usual. Brooding Barry is the worst Barry so hopefully him coming clean with everyone about the load on his shoulders brings him back to normal.

Because this is the CW and not HBO? Also I thought the creators came out and said 'no full on, King Shark episode' after his brief because of expense. Am I remembering that wrong?

He looked amazing, but we shouldn't be surprised because these are the same people that gave us Grodd.

No you are remembering it correctly. They changed their minds after see the fan support.

King Shark rocks ! although he was rather ripped and i thought sharks had highter fat content on their bodies

Anyway, i'm sure they get a bulk discount on the VFX with the other shows they have to do it for
