    I like it. Aside from the nostalgia blast, the rival company angle may lead to some eventual and interesting conflict for Barry.

    This has gotta be so strange for her. Shipp is returning to the franchise too, but he's playing a different character. Pays is playing Tina McGee again, now 23 years after their show ended.

    Maybe she'll be visiting from somewhere else in the Multiverse.

    I'm pleased as punch for Amanda to get a role.As a die hard fan of the original series,it's like a dream come true!:awesome:


    TBH,the more I think of it,it would've been cool if this were a direct sequel to the original.Grant would be Wally,JWS would still be Barry and Amanda would still be the original version of Tina.:csad:


    Alex Desert needs a role now!:argh:

    With two of the leads appearing on this series, I wonder if Warner Bros. would consider re-releasing the 1990 series on DVD/Blu-ray again. Or Netflix.

    Yes, I'm aware, but that was also a good 10-ish years ago. I don't think anyone would complain about a re-release, especially considering you can't even find it in most stores anymore.

    I'm not gonna lie, I kinda dig the old early 90's grainy quality of the DVD, I don't think I necessarily need to see a High Def version of it. That's part of the charm. That's just me though. :oldrazz:

    Super cool news. I always liked Pays, especially in the original Flash series. I hope they are talking about multiple episodes and not a one shot appearance.

    This sounds like a "Jane Badler on the reimagined V" situation, so there IS precedence for this kind of thing.

    Good to hear she's returning! I remember I had a bit of a crush on her in the original Flash.;)

    As a fan of the original show I'm happy to see her back.

    Hopefully when Mark Hamill is done filming Star Wars they can get him on the new Flash to play a character as well.

    I was 5 years old when the 1990 show came out, I wished I watched it. As a kid i wouldve ate this up especially since I was obssessed with Tim Burton's Batman at the time.

    It would be cool if the rival company is Cadmus labs.

    I was the same age. I saw the original Flash show as reruns on the SyFy channel in the mid-90's.

    This show will probably be in it's 5th season before Hamill gets involved.:csad:

    I hear he's going to be a little busy for the foreseeable future.:woot:
