Grant Gustan has officially retired the Flash suit.

The wrapped up to the Red Death chapter seemed extremely rushed and poorly executed. It seems like they are trying to cram as much fan service into the last season that it’s actually hurting the show. I have no problem with fan service but they are breaking their own post Crisis rules about no doppelgängers and no multiverse to do it. It’s lazy. At least there’s the hope they bring back Harry since that’s possible now. The show has fallen so far that I miss the Council of Wells.

I just miss seeing Ed on the show regularly. He could have the shittiest material, Cavanagh has the ability to make anything entertaining, even when he has the cheesiest of accents.

Re: The Flash (The CW) - The 9th and Final Season - premieres 2/8/23

With only 13 episodes this FINAL season, I THOUGHT all the actors would be in every episode and the FLASH would be the main character for the remainder of this season.

I didn't think they would pull this again. Someone also pointed out ALL the characters they could bring back or tell a story with and this is what they come up with when there is such a limited number of episodes to do everything.

What the hell? They did it again in the next episode with Dreamer. No Flash in a show about The Flash. I realize they want to do a farewell tour for the entire Arrowverse but these episodes are bad. It’s like they hired the writers who did the final season of Supergirl.

I was shocked as anyone when we got a garbage filler episode about Dreamer in the Flash's last season. It appears this entire season's budget has been shuttled into the cast and guest stars. Always a problem in television when everyone knows a show is ending, most of the key production staff behind the scenes bail looking for more secure jobs. The only cast member who doesn't look checked out already is Candice.

Danielle Panabaker's entire arc this season appears to be her desire avoiding Killer Frost's make-up. I bet she's spending a lot less time in wardrobe and hair this season.

So we can skip the two most recent eps it seems.

Thanks for the warning that these episodes can be skipped. Dreamer was the character they brought on to Supergirl during that horrendous final season, right?

I have to watch every episode of the shows I watch. However, you really could miss the last two episodes and not miss much of anything.

The character first appeared in season four.

The Dreamer episode is pointless and bad. The episode before that would be an OK filler if this wasn’t the final season.

Out of all the FLASH characters I'm not sure why they went with Dreamer that's from Supergirl. (No problem with Dreamer, her character is fine) Just out of place for the final season of Flash.

Yeah, they could have actually provided some closure for the Legends of Tomorrow characters. Of course that would have required getting a lot more actors to appear. They could have at least had Sara Lance show up and give some explanation about what happened to everyone else.

Hasn't Chunk's relationship only been a few episodes? Now they love each other as their one true love? That was sure fast.

Re: The Flash (The CW) - The 9th and Final Season - premieres 2/8/23

Last night was the Amell return episode, and also the first Flash episode I've watched since early season 7. Amell was mostly good, but all the uninteresting clutter with the umpteen supporting team players at the beginning of the episode just served as a reminder of why I dropped the show.

The villain was a returning Mohinder, who as I recall was left open after season 6 ended early because of Covid. It looks like this was his first appearance since then so I while I didn't really remember his deal it wasn't like I had missed anything with his character.

Good to see Oliver again even if the story was dumb. Glad he and Diggle got time together.

They really should have tried something different for this last season. Maybe cut the cast and let Flash go on the road with just one or two companions. Amell's final appearance has been the single highlight of this season.

I liked seeing Oliver and Diggle but every episode this season seems either rushed or half baked or both. Among a bunch of other things, in this episode they killed Barry, corrupted Wally, brought back Olie, reintroduced the multiverse, resurrected Barry, uncorrupted Wally, wiped out Bloodwork for good, put the last nail in the Diggle as Green Lantern coffin and did whatever with Khione. Even the line about Mia and William make not sense. If William is in college that means a ten year oldish Mia is doing salmon ladders. These f-ing writers.

I’m really glad Amell put on the hood one last time. He didn't leave Arrow with the best head space.

I realized today and I hadn't watched a single episode of the final season since ep 1 and I don't think I care. Doesn't seem like I've missed anything?
