I think I'm with Foomby on this one... Grodd is great, but they haven't used him to his full comic-book-faithful potential.

King Shark, on the other hand, is just a giant freaking shark thug. And they portrayed him beautifully.

I suppose that's fair enough. At least until we see him lead the inevitable gorilla invasion.

Yeah, can't freaking wait.

Love me some Grodd, but I'm ready to see him full on King Grodd tyrannizing a bunch of other gorillas into doing his evil bidding. Which hopefully is next season, 'cause Gorilla City!

Besides, Shark's first appearance needed resolution. Harry blasts Jaws, and we cold open the next episode with NO ONE talking about what they did with him. Is he dead? In prison? In the pipeline? In ARGUS?

Finally some answers.

When I said 'Best CGI character', I meant it both character-wise and CGI-wise. I've never been a fan of Grodd in this show (Which is why the idea of him being the main antagonist of Season 3 makes me cringe.), and King Shark really impressed me just with his one appearance.

Now, the context I mostly meant was that while Grodd's CGI IS very impressive, King Shark's probably got the best CGI I've ever seen in a TV show.

It is going to be great. Second video was too funny, I had to watch it 5 times especially to see Cisco and Barry's faces.

They're like too hyperactive kids on a field trip... and poor Harry is the over-exasperated parent.

That would be a Legion Of Super-Heroes flight ring. The Legion are a pretty big deal, thus, that should be a pretty big deal, whatever it's in reference to.

I can't tell, is it in some kind of display case or stand? If so, could that be the ring Booster Gold steals from the museum before making his way back in time? Intriguing.

And yeah that's definitely Shipp/Barry as Flash. Nice Easter egg.

Nice people to have on speed dial there Barry!

I actually hated this episode; they wrote Barry completely out of character, being completely caught up in in the problems of Earth-2 Iris and Joe.

Totally brought down the episode for me. Barry always sacrifices; he would totally not have gotten sidetracked from rescuing Jessie except for bad writing.

However, I did love Earth-2 Killer Frost, Deathstorm, and...

Spoiler:
Earth-2 (evil) Cisco. I did NOT see that coming!

This was hands down the best episode of the season by far! Where do I even start!!!

-We got to see a glimpse of the Multiverse, featuring 90s Flash, Supergirl, Jonah Hex, future Green Arrow and the Legion!
-Jay (briefly) doing speedster stuff! ACTUAL SPEEDSTER STUFF!!!
-Singing Joe West!
-Two great fight scenes with Killer Frost, Deathstorm, and Reverb!
-ZOOM!! ZOOM!!! ZOOM!!!!!

I'm just so dang happy that this show exist. Bless these showrunners hearts! I'm calling it right now, Zoom is Earth-2 Wally West, you read it here first! I mean why else would there be no mention of him?

I'm not in love with the episode. I missed all the cameos too.

Best part for me was Zoom showing up and killing Deathstorm and Reverb.

I gave it some thought, and this episode only needed a little editing to keep Barry in character and still get all the Earth-2 doppelganger drama. Barry goes to the CCPD and finds out that nobody knows where Zoom is, but that it is suspected that other metahumans are working for him. Barry decides to stake out Central City with the unknowing Detective West and track some metahumans in hopes of following them (or forcing them to lead him) to Zoom.

You do that, the episode proceeds exactly the same, except Barry isn't out-of-character (read, self-absorbed dick).

So who's the guy in the mask? Possibly Earth-1 Ronnie? That's my groundless hunch.
