The actors were allowed into the plot process

Grant Gustin and Tom Cavanagh seem to be the only ones with actual input, and their contributions have mostly been positive.

Explain.

adventures of the lesbian timetraveler and crew stole all the good villains

What? Devoe was kino tho, especially when he was switching from bodies

To much sidekicks

it should just be Barry Allen
but all the CW series always have a useless team helping the hero

didn't bother to watch this season after the god awful handling of Thinker and Reverse Flash, what have i missed

Flash is basically a background character on his own show.

There's more than that, but if you can't get the most basic thing right, everything else is going to fail.

>fucks your season so bad they have to bring back Wellsboard and even then had to replace him with female Cicada
what the fuck were they thinking?
did one of the writers owed him a favor or what?

Attached: flash-cicada-wound.jpg (620x421, 59K)

He started racemixing. Simple as.

But i like season 3. Guess not anymore

Is this from season 4? I stopped watching when they revealed the villian because he looked pretty lame, especially coming after the thinker who was based

It wasn't ever capekino. Season 1 was good. Great for a fan of the comics, but just decent otherwise thanks to having an unused movie script to work off of. Still had lots of problems like shitty CW relationship drama, a monster of the week formula that led to zero-dimensional villains every time except for the recurring ones like Professor Zoom and Captain Cold, and really awful action besides a few standout moments like the train scene. I mean, the most hyped up battles ended up being complete garbage, like the Gorilla Grodd episode being nothing more than a vessel for making Iris relevant and the Reverse Flash vs Flash, Firestorm, and Green Arrow fight having so many problems that I could write an essay about it. Plus it ended really shittily too. It was dumb when Looper did it and it's still dumb now especially since Barry is directly responsible for Eddie's death and probably thousands of people dying to the singularity by not letting Reverse Flash leave. Despite that, the first thing you see in the next season is Flash getting hailed as a hero and the show never stops to address anything, and it only goes downhill from there.

Season 2 is mostly a retread of Season 1 since the writers probably didn't know how to do shit after running out of movie script, and in doing so just plucked the second most famous evil speedster from the comics and ruined him completely. Still not irredeemably garbage yet but the cracks definitely began to show. Then Season 3 came out and it was utter shite but people thought it might just be an off season, only to be shat upon harder by Season 4 and 5.

>a monster of the week formula

Just like the comics.

Eddie created the singularity by killing himself and triggering an unsustainable paradox. It amazes me how many people don't understand that.

Still doesn't mean it works in a TV show especially when they do it every fucking season with the particle accelerator metas, Zoom's goons from Earth 2, the bus metas, etc.
I know Eddie created it, that's why I said Barry was responsible for Eddie's death and the singularity eating up Central City. Barry and friends beat Reverse Flash and locked him up in the anti-power jail cell. Then they decide to let him go back to the future while Barry goes to the past to save his mother. Then Barry makes the split second decision to not save his mother and go back to the present to punch the time machine into bits which pisses Reverse Flash off and Barry gets his ass kicked. Eddie then shoots himself to stop him, creating the singularity and killing who knows how many people. Barry had Eobard locked up for good, decided to release him, then changes his mind while he's in the process of leaving. He could have just left him in there to rot but somehow seeing his future self do the Gilette commercial black man "nah bro" to him makes him realize he has everything he wants so he fucks up the time machine while Reverse Flash is still free and not stuck in the pipeline leading to the rampage. Then the next season opens with him getting the key to the city and called a hero for saving the city from the singularity?

They allowed fags and socialist a seat in the writer's room. Make it more CWish. And less quality for the sake of promoting the left wing agenda.

>have a girl power episode featuring all the females stepping up to be heroes
>unironically make the characters say shit like "hashtag feminism"
>the girls all get their asses kicked and fail to save the day
based CW

Exactly

You already spotted the trend in Season 3. Season 4 oh man they just fully embarrassed themselves. Iris, the leader of team flash. Barry is beta and a side character in his own story. The way they handled Savitar and the thinker. The girls not out episode. Downgrading cisco while every other episode is killer frost. Time traveling bi daughter. Now that turned Arrow into beta cuck and made him a second tier character in his own show for Mary Sue Felicity. Thats have been shit for a while now except season 5. Legends feels more and more like a girl power lgbtq series now. All the guys are now side characters for feminist and dykes. The CW is nothing more than a disease .

The next episode is probab;y gonna reveal Godspeed as the actual big villain

I overall enjoy the Flash and think it is relatively comfy and has way less political agenda than the other CW shows (that being said it still has some).

it was terrible from episode 1.

>The next episode is probab;y gonna reveal Godspeed as the actual big villain

Nah, Grace is in it for the long haul. Godspeed is probably a season 6 lead-in at beast, and a disposable villain of the week at worst.

>Downgrading cisco while every other episode is killer frost.

They're phasing him out because he's leaving the show.

I don't blame him, they've been treating his character awfully since Season 3 with all his bitching and moaning. If I were an actor, I would absolutely regret being pigeonholed into a CW show unless I was making absurd amounts of money. I still feel bad for Tom Felton for being in this shit as if it was the only thing he could manage after his fame as Draco Malfoy died.

Oh jeez with shit. Cisco always came off as a closet homo to me. He was cool in the beginning but his character was too much in his feelings about something. Now if they are really writing him out. Whos left? Ralph? Please, they cucked that dude so hard. Following Caitlin around like some lovesick puppy dog. Another version of Wells? Great just what the show needs. Bring in more females to be the center and barry is just the backup on his show again? Look at Arrow for what can come from that. This show has just been terrible since season 3. No redeeming it now

I stopped watching after the end of season 3. Can someone give me a quick rundown on what has happened since then?

all the good writers as well with the resources are just moved around the shows

when they made the flash arrow became shit. when flash got bad arrow got good again, then both shows became bad again and legends became amazing

Legends were amazing. Till it replaced Supergirl ad the flagship show for pushing their left-wing agenda. They just put comedy on top. This season was were shit compared to Season 2. Season 3 was a hit or miss because that's when they were pushing that LGBTQ shit hard.

Barry returns from the speed force and after a bit of time, is no worse for wear. New villain named The Thinker emerged, he got his super intellect powers from the particle accelerator blast and plans on reverting humanity to caveman intellect for some reason. He's also able to bodysnatch and steal powers. Elongated Man joins the team and for a discount Jim Carrey he's actually pretty good. Flash and co stop Thinker and Barry has to blow up a satellite to stop the caveman beam and would have died but is helped by a female speedster who reveals herself to be his daughter from the future. New villain called Cicada emerges along with a bunch of other metas resulting from the caveman satellite explosion. Cicada wants to kill all metas because his daughter was hurt by one. He has the power to remove meta powers in a small radius, and team Flash jobs to him every time instead of just getting Joe to shoot him or something. Flash's daughter is revealed to be working with Eobard Thawne in the future. Cicada's daughter ends up being a bad guy from the future. A shark fights a gorilla.

Nothing, made killer frost more important than she needs to be. Sidelined Joe for Cecil and made her a meta. Iris was affirmative actioned into being the leader of Team Flash. Cisco with nice long hair was feminized even more. He barely uses his powers anymore. Kid Flash was written out. Iris and Barry bi daughter from the future is slowly becoming the new lead of the show. Felton was wasted and never mentioned again. Thinker started off as an awesome foe but became a libtard version of Cell from DBZ. Another version of Wells because Cavanaugh cant step away from the show. The flash sucks now. It went from bad to worse

>A shark fights a gorilla.
Top kek

I stuck it out longer than most but I can't do it anymore. I'm at the point where I'm literally only watching because Killer Frost and Flash's Daughter are hot. Everything else is so fucking shit. Fuck CW.

I imagine it's quite difficult to write an OP character with 23 episodes per season. Especially when you start with his biggest villain. He probably should have had a more shonen tier power creep instead of being able to time travel by the end of the first season

>Sidelined Joe for Cecil and made her a meta

He hurt his back and is back now anyway.

SJW infestation, like always

>Sidelined Joe for Cecil
well the nigga got injured irl doing whatever and spend the early episodes of the season always sitting and doing jack shit so they had to write him out temporarily
funny thing is the second he comes back he pretty much solves most of Cicada's mysteries so they also wrote him out just so they could drag that shit for 80% of the season

You shouldn't have watched so much. You may have caused yourself permanent damage. All of us stopped watching somewhere in season 2, OP is fag.

Was it kino?
youtube.com/watch?v=VAIhAv6edQw

>well the nigga got injured irl doing whatever
expand upon this

Even before his injury. He became less essential to the story. He was just around as the father figure. Which was a waste. Barry should be doing more CI work with him not. Not turning in DC version of Dawsons Creek

Yeah I know but I kept hoping for more reverse flash, hoping the action would pick up again, and other shit that didn't happen. If it helps I've barely bothered with the latest season and was usually doing something while it was on.

Attached: g52jTMr.jpg (899x1348, 99K)

They had to get a thirty-year-old actress to portray a twenty-something-year-old with mommy issues. Oh made ber uber SJW to add insult to injury. You can tell they are pushing her to take over eventually

Legends pushed the left-wing shit from the beginning.
eg.
>they go back to the 1950s
>professor is excited to be in the time when he was a boy
>shares warm nostalgia with the crew
OMG 1950 IS LITERALLY HITLER IF YOU'RE GAY OR A NON-WHITE, YOU PIG.

And in that same episode a male doctor was considered to be a pig for flirting with a nurse...but the lesbo full-on romancing her after that was fine.

Well is it Candice or is it Danielle? Make up your mind about the stories you’re fabricating

I hate the gummy guy and stopped watching when they made earth 2 wells dumb.

JPK is not hot enough to make her retarded character endearing

Yeah no doubt it's been one retarded thing after another with her character and being hot as fuck isn't good enough for me anymore. I don't have time for any of this bullshit as I just wanted to watch Flash fuck up bad guys using his speed in interesting ways, not to see her hitting on chicks at a coffee shop or having Iris talk about what's gotten up her vagina this week.

Three things:

1. Incredibly bloated seasons with like 25 episodes so you're mostly gonna get absolute Z-list garbage metahuman of the week episodes.

2. Season-long plotlines. The writers could have made the huge episode count work by instead creating self-contained arcs, but they decided to throw in "mystery villains" after the first Thawne twist was mildly well received. But you can have the most interesting villain ever put to screen and no one's gonna give a shit when everyone's still guessing his identity after six fucking months of nothing.

3. Dogshit supporting cast. They have to keep introducing and dropping dead weight support characters to fill out the enormous seasons, so we get new characters who fucking suck, rewrites of existing characters that fucking suck, and pointless sideplots for the original cast like Killer Frost finds her dad or some shit.

I miss when Flash punched a steel guy at supersonic speeds and I'm still salty about how badly they butchered Zoom

>that zoom reveal
Trying to be too smart for their own good

Granted but it wasn't full on till Season 3. Atom is so beta it hurts. Rory writes romance novels and just muscle for Sarah. Steele was pussy whipped for an entire season. WTF man. The guys ALL made to look incompetent without the aid of a woman. Brought in a fudge packing snart just to remind everyone the actor is gay. The Obama focused episode while taking jabs at Trump.

>I'm still salty about how badly they butchered Zoom
Man I hear that

>thought he was going to be some living demon of the speed force or some shit
>turned out to be some random faggot who was super edgy instead
Ruined it.

Star Trek, Star Wars, Doctor Who, The MCU, The DCU, Arrowverse. Everything those people touch turns to shit. Arrow is canceled. More so because Amell is tired of play the bad boy with issues while being second tier in his own damn show. I don't blame him for wanting to walk.

I couldn't even make it through season one because of all the lefty shit. I'm sure I can't even fathom how bad it is now.

Bro don't bother. It got worse. So much worse.

Man I dropped Arrow so long ago, it went from Green Batman to "look how good this blonde hair chick is, she nuked a city but it's all good guys praise be to her!" it's days were numbered after Willa left.

The worst part for me was that Hunter Zolomon is one of my all time favorite villains in comics. There's a great mix of pathos and horror to his character that would have worked really well if they just brought Eddie back from the dead or something.

It could just be marketing but Amell seems bro as fuck. He deserves to be on a good show.

>take Wally's archnemesis and make him Barry's enemy
>ignore his cool time powers and make him exactly the same as every other speedster
>remove his background as a cop who got injured in the line of duty and instead make him a psychopath serial killer
>change him from genuinely wanting heroes to become stronger to better protect the world to wanting to stop his speed aids and eventually destroy the multiverse for reasons
>give him a dumb edgy black costume instead of him donning a yellow one to evoke the emotions Eobard Thawne invokes to the Flashes
>kill him off and make him the Black Flash, a completely different character
great fucking job

That Barry is the Flash instead of Wally who is objectively better. There is a reason Wally makes up like 95% of the recommended Flash reading.

it was bad enough when they tried adding bitch canary to the show then they threw in a half dozen rootin tootin youngster diversity hire sidekicks and I knew it was over

>willa

Now a show with just Willa and Amell would've worked. She runs the clubs and Oliver ran Queen Consolidated. A small crew. Self-contained arcs building up to season finale. That's why Slade, Malcolm and Chase were based as fuck villains. But no they replaced the writing staff season 3 and on with lefties who wanted to cuck Oliver and make him emotionally and finically dependent on the IT chick. Turning Arrow into Felicity and Friends. I fucking hate the CW dude

THREE THINGS:

1.) Reverb should have been an overarching season villain resulting in the death of Cisco.

2.) It is kek that the youngest character on the show is also the oldest actor/actress.

3.) Black people have added absolutely ZERO to the Arrowverse and some could argue are responsible for it's downfall

He does. The dude loves to smile and it shows when the writing allows him to do so. They needed him dark, brooding and mysterious because of the female/homo demo. They brought down the quality of the series and their cancer spread to the rest of the CW Arrowverse shows

>She runs the clubs and Oliver ran Queen Consolidated. A small crew. Self-contained arcs building up to season finale. That's why Slade, Malcolm and Chase were based as fuck villains.
Agreed but CW chose the classic bait technique instead, do what people want then when you have them hooked, drown it in the stuff you actually want to do which happens to be non-stop leftist politics and wanking over how powerful the women are despite them not actually being able to do anything without the other character. I just wanted to watch superheros.

>. I just wanted to watch superheros

Facts. With a damn good story and character development. Flash Season 1 and Arrow season 1, 2 and 5 had those. The problem is they get us to where they need us then pile of the agenda bullshit.

Just read the comics. Literally every story in The Flash show is just a worst retelling of the comics.

>Cisco:It's this archaic sport called Boxing. I know just what to call this guy, the amazing fistman

Damn, I'm reddit as fuck but also FUCK this show

I aint got all the money for that shit

I don't even know why they didn't just make their shitty edgelord OC the Rival. It even plays better into the stupid multiverse gimmick of Season 2.

>Reverb as a season villain

Dear lord no. Have you seen these people trying to act evil? Killer Frost sounded like she was in a bad LARP and Savitar sounded like a whiny teenager.

This is what ruined arrow for me. Season 1 and 2 were kino.

crossovers with Legends and Supergirl.

It was good when it was just Flash and Arrow.

I actually liked Diggle, too. I had no idea it would snowball into what it became, tho

You forgot about the mandatory dozen pointless dialogue scenes between idiot side characters

I agree with everything you said. Iris was affirmative actioned in the top seat and when she did oh man fid the liberal press eat up. The oldest charter next Joe and wells plays a twenty-year-old that acts like a 15-year-old. I hate the direction sci-fi has went because of forced diversity and blackwash of established characters. Black lightning is the least like show because not even white teenage girls and homos don't find anything appealing with the characters. It's just the way it is.

>Run Barry, Run!
Oh god stop. Fucking stop. This got old so fucking fast and then they did that whole shit with Iris where "we are the flash" and all I wanted to do was fucking kill myself.

Wally was the better flash. I never understood why they needed to bring Barry back. He went out like a champ. He saved all of reality. That's why the comic industry sucks the last few decades. Well besides the SJW push. No real consequences. Hell, they just brought back Jean Grey and Logan. Leave them be.
