Also sorry for the faux pas writing long posts without introductions. I'm new here, but have been lurking on here for years. I've been a member of other DC Comics message boards many years ago, but stopped frequenting them the more they kept shutting them down, or overhauling them. I don't know if I'll post here often, but I'll always read.

On the official DVD box of Season 2 it states "his adoptive family." Why would Warner Brothers allow that if it wasn't true?

Maybe it's using the term in a colloquial sense, not a legal sense?

That being said, the writers of the show almost certainly were not in charge of writing something on the DVD box.

I have to agree. The term adoptive family gets used a lot in fiction when a band of people bond together and go through a lot without any indication of formal legality.

I still think it's not weird on Barry's side. On Iris's side they messed up just so there was no reason for her to wait for coma Barry and could date another guy. If she had been a viable option all along people would hate her for not waiting. The writers just didn't have a good reason for Iris to not be Barry's significant other and have Joe as the true father figure that Henry wasn't at the same time. Early marriage would have fixed that, but then they can't have CW conflict. The solution would have been simple, but we saw how they messed up Ollie and Laurel regardless.

Music makes the Glee kids come together again!
In a pitch-perfect piece of casting, Darren Criss will reunite with his former Glee cohorts Grant Gustin and Melissa Benoist when he guest-stars in the two-part The Flash/Supergirl musical episode as the Big Bad Music Meister, TVLine has learned exclusively.“With our Flash and our Supergirl being Glee alums, how could we not have them go up against another Glee favorite like Darren Criss?” exec producer Andrew Kreisberg tells TVLine. “We have been blown away by his talent over the years and we can’t wait to see what he brings to the Music Meister.”As reported last week, the anticipated crossover will air Monday, March 20 and Tuesday, March 21 at 8/7 each night. As with the network’s recent “Heroes v. Aliens” saga, the event will start at the end of Supergirl, saving most of the musical action for The Flash‘s portion of the event, appropriately titled “Duet.” As for which characters will be singing, The CW confirmed that Broadway vets Jesse L. Martin (Joe), Victor Garber (Dr. Stein), John Barrowman (Malcolm Merlyn) and Jeremy Jordan (Winn); and Carlos Valdes (Cisco) will be lending their voices alongside Gustin, Benoist and Criss.

Guess that squashes the rumor of Neil Patrick Harris potentially getting the role.
 
so i guess this is like the invasion crossover.supergirl episode mostly standalone untill the ending but this time kara brings winn and martian manhunter with her.

intresting that stein and malcolm are a part of it.well john Barrowman has deadl to appear on all CW arrowverse shows so this will finally bring him to flash this season.and always great to see victor garber on the flash.
 
Yeah, if Garber and Barrowman are here, I'm speculating that there's something that brings the storyline on Legends of Tomorrow to reach present day.
 
That's assuming there was any opportunity to get him anyway....
 
Really he probably cost them too much. too bad. I thought that was the reason for the main story only being on Flash.
 
I would have preferred Neil Patrick Harris as I used to watch HYMYM and never watched Glee, but I'm excited about Darren Criss only because I'm a fan of A Very Potter Musical and it's sequels.
 
I think NPH would've added some gravitas to the role and made it less like the CW/ Glee.
 
Didn't they also say NPH has an incredibly busy schedule? In addition to cost, it would have been pretty hard for him to fit into the filming schedule.
 
What's he busy doing these days?
 
Neil Patrick Harris also voiced the Flash in Justice League: New Frontier.

Darren Criss is not related to original KISS drummer Peter Criss!!

I was think the same thing but he's always been willing to negociate and work ontv and mostlike has different salery for tv compared to his movies. he did start of first and for most as tv star be side his movie roles.


That said, the dc tv show runners mostlikely went we'll go with some less known and still less expensive right from the jump nd new this will attract those that showed up in glee. of which I was told by mysiter victor garber was on glee as the main protagonist teachers dad. so this is more of glee reunion of sorts. especially for grant gusten and kara's Melissa benoist.


ok this is what I gt for you all

The Flash Showrunners Have Big Plans for Cisco, Caitlin, Julian & Kid ...
13 hours ago |

It looks like the members of Team Flash will each have their own directions moving forward into the third season of the series. and from the looks of it, the progress will entail a little romance, a little struggle, and a little peace.
The Flash showrunner Aaron Helbing got in touch with TVLine to reveal some tidbits on where exactly we’ll find our hero and his friends at the onset of the back half of season 7.
First off, we already know that Iris is supposed to die at the hands of Savitar, unless Barry can do something about it. However, he is obviously not alone as Cisco and Wally, a.k.a. Kid Flash will also be playing quite the role in the saving.
The upcoming episodes will also give big reveals and explanations related to the speed god. There’s the big question of why Barry is the only one who could see Savitar. The show will also tackle the almost Schrodinger’s cat moment of Savitar being both trapped in the box and free to kill Iris in the future. And we’ll probably get to understand the three prophecies.
As for Team Flash, its other members will also be seeing their own struggles. Cisco will be facing off with Gypsy. Since she can cross dimensions and have a more advanced Vibe, she will definitely be someone that Cisco will remember. Whether it’s on the side of romance or annoyance, we’ll have to stay tuned.
For Caitlin, we did see her mellow a little with her powers when she was able to control a slight snowfall for the last episode. Helbing shares that Caitlin will still have to deal with her powers and their consequences.
“There’s always going to be that threat there, and that’s going to be something that she’s wrestling with for the rest of the season. We have big plans for Caitlin, ones that I think are really exciting and really satisfying.”
For those who are thinking of that lingering scene between her and Julian and the eggnog, that potential may have to wait. Helbing said that the two will remain friends for now. though they do share similar experiences with unwanted powers (or services to a speed god), there’s a sort of bond that holds the two of them.
I’m all for this little hesitation when it comes to Caitlin’s love life. She has been through quite the ride for the past two seasons. His original fiancé dying, then being resurrected into a meta, then losing him again in different earths, and falling for someone who will become a villain—I think her powers alone may already be a lot of drama to handle.
The Flash will be back on The CW on 24.

Still don't see why they couldn't have brought Chyler Leigh along for the ride. Isn't she meant to have a good singing voice? It doesn't have to be purely a glee reunion, and it won't be anyway with Barrowman and Cisco in the mix.
 
Hey Flash Fans!!!! Did you guys see yesterday's episode?? Wasn't it totally dope! If you love Grant Gustin as much as I do, follow my new finsta: grants_booty. thanks my dudes!!

If you continue posting this it will be considered spam, make this the last.
 



























FLASH Facts: Plunder
 
Anyone else think that Wally would be better off on Legends? They need a speedster.

I got goosebumps watching Barry and Wally together, but I have a feeling Wally might be taken off Flash full time and put on Legends or maybe even a Titans show (I think there's a solid chance the new CW show Geoff Johns has been teasing is Titans)

It would make sense, in the silver age comics, there was a long stretch of time where Wally was off living his life and going to college, not even living in Central City. He'd speed in when Barry really needed him, but was hardly a regular in the issues.

I love Wally and have warmed up to the actor playing him quite a bit, so I would love to see him as a main character either on Legends or somewhere else
