The Flash
Last week my DVR fucked up and I missed last weeks episode so I watched it on hulu with my bf.
So wait, let me get this straight. Barry loses his powers not through sheer physical trauma of being electrocuted at a ridiculous rate, but because he has the willies? The entire episode he shows lots of confidence and strength and will and a complete lack of care for himself in order to help others, but he lost his powers because he was scared? What? This show is fucking stupid.
This show just isn't nearly as good as Arrow. It's fun, but its plodding nature, villain of the week nature, lack of season wide story arcs or villains, lack of story revelations, and poor character development make for some really, really repetitive television. And the revelations that ARE made, like the aforementioned "it's mental, not physical" from last weeks episode are incredibly dumb. It's just not that good, and I can't believe it's by the same people who made Arrow.
Here's hoping Arrow vs Flash kicks ass.
