The Flash

Season 1: Such a strong start for a baby television series coming off the success of it's more wishy-washy partner. Already more entertaining and lovable than Arrow, Flash bolsters itself with strong CGI and better character relations, while building on Arrow's tradition of smart casting and good characters, without the mistakes.

Probably my favorite comic book related adaptation yet, The Flash perfectly blends witty humor with some crazy action sequences. At times yes it can seem a bit campy and the style definitely takes on a particular Vibe (pun intended for fans of the DC universe and show) but it all works and leads to great heart felt moments of growth for each one of the main characters. Barry Allen is a likable lead and the rest of the characters are very easy to identify with. Great writing and great direction.

To be honest, first couple episodes of season 1 were bit off and I did not expect much, but then the episode named "The Man in Yellow Suit" was aired and I fell in love with this show. Almost every episode after that was fantastic. Season 1 was ended perfectly and so far season 2 is very good as well. This show is really very good surprise cause I really did not expect I will like it so much. Visual effects are brilliant for TV show. Tom Cavanagh's performance is awesome. "Run, Barry, RUN!"

Berlanti and company were right not to repeat the Nolan-esque tone of Arrow, and instead do something more like Donner's Superman. Grant Gustin is solid in the title role; good special effects for the CW, plenty of humor and fun.

Oh how the mighty have fallen. This used to be one of my favorite shows, and by the end it felt like I was practically hate-watching it. It really sucks, because it started great. If they had chosen to end it 3 or 4 seasons earlier, it probably would have left me with a much better impression of the show.

The Flash had a great a superb 1st season that it has never quite managed to recapture the spirit of, instead getting a little worse each year. At its best, it's a superhero show that basks in its optimism, and balances comic-book villains with humour and teamwork. It is less good when it aims for grimdark in half measures and repeats relationship drama ad nauseum. Great theme tune though.

Classic CW, yes but not the worst show ever. The Trickster isn't the worst actor ever, that title belongs to Rey from Star Wars 7 and Jennifer Lawrence. It's far superior to things like the Walking Dead and Star Wars 7 without a doubt.

Even at less than two seasons, this is already the best live action superhero series I've ever seen, and I've seen most of the mainstream ones. It isn't afraid of being a comic book adaptation, embracing elements a lot of superhero shows try to ignore because they aren't "serious" enough. That attitude, combined with great writing and an awesome cast make The Flash one amazing show.

The Flash has intractably stupid writing and that grating CW teen-drama sheen, but I can't help but find it endearing in its silliness. The writers and the actors don't take it seriously enough to ruin the mood, and the Silver Age comics lunacy complements the Millennial melodrama surprisingly well. The older actors (Wentworth Miller, John Wesley Shipp, Jesse L. Martin, Mark Hamill, and especially Tom Cavanagh as sinister Steve Jobs) make the show because they get that fun stupidity.
