if this was any other network, they would be saving time travel for season 2 or 3. last moment of season 1 at the very soonest. on the cw? hell no, they knock out time travel 2 months before the season 1 finale.

glad i never watched smallville. i was always curious about it, but it always looked lame.

i have a theory, is it possible harrison wells isnt reverse flash at all and is really wally west coming to help him defeat the real reverse flash? yeah i know his outfit is yellow, but in that animated Flash movie, reverse flash fucked with barry by giving him his yellow suit and taking the red one.

Nope...

I know we have all theorized where the show is going and the reverse flash bit, i would have assumed this was posted already, but guess it was not...
Reverse Flash Revealed in interview:
Source:The Flash Cast and Crew Tease Reverse Flash Moments - SuperHeroHype

It surprised many in the closing minutes of the mid-season finale for ?The Flash? when the shadiest of shady men Harrison Wells was revealed as Barry?s nemesis, The Reverse Flash. Some weren?t convinced it was that cut and dry; however, during their ?Heroes and Villains? panel at TCA today, star Tom Cavanagh left little doubt that he?s the big bad by saying:?He?s the man in the yellow suit. Yes, I am Reverse Flash.?


Executive producer Andrew Kreisberg chimed in with a tease, saying we would be seeing the events of the night Nora Allen died from the POV of Reverse Flash.


?We?re going to see what happened that night from the Reverse Flash?s point of view. I didn?t say it was from Wells? point of view, I said it was from the Reverse Flash?s point of view.?


Kreisberg also teased a connection to Rick Cosnett?s Eddie Thawne, saying, ?His name is not an accident. Eddie?s connection to the Reverse Flash lore is going to pay off big time in the back half of the year.?


Cavanagh went on to provide an even more interesting teaser by confirming that there?s only one Reverse Flash in the series (corroborating our own theory on the matter).


?There is just one Reverse Flash,? he said. ?When we get into that moment and really start parsing through details of what that moment is, it?s going to be very gratifying to the audience. It?s got deeper levels. There?s so much more to it.?

I'm 2 episodes behind right now. I'll watch one of them over my lunch break today. I really like this show, there's just too much other stuff keeping my attention away to stay completely current at all times.

My interest in The Flash week to week has pretty quickly passed up my interest in Arrow. And I think it's almost entirely because Barry is more interesting than Ollie on their respective shows. Maybe just because he has some little sense of humor at least. Cracked me up with the naga pepper and he usually has a scene or two every week that at least make me smile.

i also think the writers have fucked up on arrow this season. Next arrow looks much better but we'll see.

Shitty Laurel and no more Sara
constant emo crying by Felicity which ruins Rouths character who is really good
Ras is good but only in for a minute over 13 episodes,
completly ruined Ollies death
Merlin isnt nearly as entertaining as he used to be
DJ ninja was annoying and almost pointless


show needs more of Ras, Nessa and Tatsu. Manu comming back should be good. wont be shocked if he end up helping ollie with Ras

No, just no.
i only say that because according to what cisco said, wells blood did not match the type on the wall. of course cisco could be lying his ass off or he got the wrong blood which he thought was wells, but if he isnt that reverse flash then he is one of the others. i dont think they would introduce 2 reverse flashes. anyway, it was just a goofy theory i had. cisco is likely full of shit.

okay, theory discussed at work just now and i had to post it here as this question now very much bothers me...
Where is Future Barry?
start of show, reverse flash and future Barry are in a tussle around barry's mom... mom dies, future reverse flash stays in present day... where does future flash go?
Wells keeps referring to a newspaper from the future where the flash is missing, so he never went back to the future. where is he? Is he hiding in present day somewhere??
Tuesday's blood analysis states that the blood is Barry from a much older version, so it's not a current barry that goes back... so, where is Future Flash right now?

He only said it was an adult Barry not child Barry. He didn't say older than Barry is now just older than Barry was then.

he said significantly older and that it could in no way be the current Barry.
something about cell deterioration in the blood that it could no way be the current Barry....i don't have the exact quote, but he defiantly said that it was not this Barry

go back and watch the scene, he never said it could not be current barry, he said it could not be the child barry. the unknown blood sample is the interesting bit. we know barry tries to save his mother, but we dont know from whom. wells RF or a different RF?

I just figured Eddie is going to be Reverse flash and Wells is Professor zoom, but who knows. Im curious how much present day Wells actually knows, his character has been awesome so far and going to be interesting how everything plays out, I dont think hes going to end up being the crazy Reverse Flash, I think thats Eddie

Cisco and Joe never thought that it was "child" Barry's blood. What they were looking at is that the blood was from a version of Barry that is significantly older than the Barry in the present.

But let's say for arguments sake that he did not say it could not be current Barry... still brings back the question... where is _that_ Barry?

Keep in mind that the paper still says "Flash is Missing"...so where is that Flash? Also the Barry that exists in the present does not have the speed capability to create a time warp event. So that again rules out the current Barry.

While I still love Arrow, I think Flash definitely as the more interesting cast of characters as a whole, not just Barry vs. Ollie. On Arrow, I'd say Ollie, Felicity (not lately, though), and Diggle are the only truly interesting regulars. Meanwhile, over on The Flash pretty much the entire regular cast is thoroughly enjoyable to watch. I can't think of a single unbearable character on The Flash, actually. I'd say that Iris is the closest, but it's more that I just think she's boring than actively despise her like I did season 2 Laurel.

Dont forget Brandon Rouths character, felicity just takes away from any of the good stuff with his character

I thought the Eddie story was going to be bad but im really interested on how his character is going to play out. As for Iris her character is just borring, I dont know if I would feel different if it was another actress but even her looks are bland. I dont like Barrys current girlfriend, too bad its not going to last

I thought about mentioning Palmer because I agree he's awesome, but he's in so few episodes/scenes that I can't really consider him a regular. I would watch the hell out of a spinoff show with him, however.

I think Ras is really interesting on Arrow, also, but his scenes are also really few-and-far between.

The Writers just really dropped the ball, Arrow going crazy from healing would have made his character pretty interesting for a few episodes and Roy/Diggle were pretty funny/good as a duo. Arrow should have had a little more dialog with Ras also. Palmer is the most interesting on the show at the moment and his scenes are getting ruined. Atleast Thea is decent now and Manu is coming back to save the day

Whos the guy between the graves? Anyways Flash Episode 17 and 18 need to get here already

Im curious when they are going to visit the whole "illegal prison full of superpowered humans located in the middle of the city" business. I mean how are they even feeding these people? You never see Cisco coming back with a huge box of Big Belly Burgers and carting them over to the detention ring.

Then again S.T.A.R. labs seems to have no janitorial staff for a place that huge even with the remaining damage from the explosion
