their big confrontation comes down to an earth-shattering dance-off

I love Cisco lol.

I like his Astrosmash shirt from the pilot.

(Astrosmash was one of the best and most popular games on the old Intellivision system, and eventually made it to Atari as Astroblast)

Is anyone else kind of concerned that, of the 7 supporting characters the show has, 4 of them already know Barry is the Flash?

I love it, It's different from all the other heroes who have to hide it from everyone. There will be less scenes of "I can't let them know, or they will be in danger". Which is in almost every live action superhero movie and show.

I too am getting really tired of the "I can't date because that would put people in danger" cliche *cough* arrow premiere *cough*, but I must say I also miss the days of the lone hero carrying the burden by them self. Seems like superheroes having their own support teams is becoming the norm these days also.

Really like Zoom's suit, I think it is all yellow but was burnt somehow. You can tell the black isn't naturally apart of the suit, the question is how was it burnt? It could be time-travel related.

 

[Lunar_Wolf]

Zoom looks AWESOME!

Oh yea I forgot to come here and tell you guys the second episode is awesome. I go to see it at NYCC early. Retains the quality of the pilot for sure. Our first time seeing Barry in full on flash mode, saving people and looking awesome.

Iris was the only annoying part, way too much of her in this episode IMO. Joe is killer in the ep though.

The coolest part IMO is when [BLACKOUT]Flash hits multiplex with a super speed punch and clones fly out from the back of multiplex because flash hit him so hard. Friggin awesome cinematic moments in this. Again the villian is weak and a bit generic personality wise.[/BLACKOUT]

 

[Mr.X]

Well, looks like he'll most likely come up with the names Captain Boomerang and Captain Cold soon.lol

Yup. I love that, and the looks both Barry and Caitlin give him at Captain Clone.

You're so lucky to have seen it early! Tuesday can't come quick enough! [BLACKOUT]I can't wait to see Flash punch at super speed. I've been wondering when that would pop up![/BLACKOUT]

I loved him singing along to pokerface in the pilot.

It's one of those damned if you do, damned if you don't situations.

Maybe there using elements from mark waid flash run. flash identity was public

No.

It's the inverse of what's happening with Oliver right now on Arrow, and is yet another really nice way to tie the series together.

Any news on how it did with DVR factored in?

I haven't seen anything, but tomorrow Nielsen is releasing a whole bunch of adjusted ratings from their technical issue they discovered last week. So we might see the actual ratings for Flash adjusted slighthly up or down (but the total viewership was not affected by the glitch, so ~4.8m is the number there).

We might see them also release DVR numbers; I'm not sure when/how DVR numbers are released, actually.

That's incredible.

And if you look at the Amazon/iTunes/GooglePlay charts, it's doing quite well in terms of total season rankings and individual episode rankings. And then you've got OnDemand and Hulu...

The CW/DC have to be turning cartwheels.

So I just found out Grant Gustin who plays Barry/ The Flash is from my home town of Norfolk Virginia where I currently live. One of my friends girlfriend even took an acting class with him at one point! Small world.

No kidding. John Wesley Shipp is from around here as well.
