The Flash tv series on CW

Seems that there's gonna be a Flash tv series on CW network. It'll be a spin-off of Arrow! So much for the "No Powers" policy.

Barry Allen will be a recurring character in season 2. The Wonder Woman series, Amazon, will still happen eventually as well.

This disturbs me. I'm excited to see Flash getting some attention, but I despise Arrow. I'd hate to see the same bastards ruin the Flash.

I agree. The 1990 CBS series was cool! John Wesley Shipp made the Flash awesome!
Especially that episode whee he played the guitar to defeat the foes!

Nothing, if you don't mind superhero-inspired soap operas. >_<

A little more info on it:

UPDATED: The Flash will appear in three episodes of the CW‘s Arrow this coming season before headlining his own spinoff series. The information was shared this afternoon by the three writers –*Arrow co-creators Greg Berlanti and Andrew Kreisberg and series scribe Geoff Johns — behind the Flash project. an origin story of Flash’s Barry Allen identity. The episodes, No. 8, No. 9 and No. 20, will be penned by the trio, with David Nutter, who helmed the Arrow pilot, committed to directing Episode 20. Kriesberg also confirmed during the conference call today that the actor who portrays Barry Allen will play him as “an ordinary man” when viewers meet him in Episode 8. “The character will be as grounded and realistic as possible,” he said. “That’s how we’ll get to know him. Then his life will get a bit faster.” He added that the surrounding characters in Arrow will react to Allen “in a very realistic way,” noting that they “won’t be treated as commonplace on the show but as extraordinary events.” Kreisberg added: “It will be fun for the audience to see how we do our take on The Flash’s powers. Some will feel very familiar to those who know the comics, and other stuff will feel different yet fresh and exciting.” Berlanti noted, “That said, he does need powers to become The Flash. And he will be The Flash. He will wear a red costume, and he will go by that name.”

More info on Barry Allen/Flash. Seems he'll be in at least 3 episodes of Arrow season 2 (8, 9 and 20).

Quote:
Barry Allen in the Arrow universe is “just an ordinary forensic scientist working for the Central City Police Department” when we first meet him, Andrew Kreisberg tells us. “As we always do on Arrow, we try to keep things as grounded and realistic as possible, and that is the way the audience will be introduced to Barry and get to know him before his life gets a little bit faster.”
So yeah...we get to know him a bit first before he gets his powers.

Considering that Barry doesn't really become Flash till like ep 20 something tells me that the Flash tv series won't air till fall 2014. In Arrow we get to know him first as Barry Allen. They're fleshing out the character before he gets his own series.

Before the first season of Arrow aired the producers said there'd be No Powers. That it's a world of no super powers. With the introduction of The Flash, it seems this has changed.
