I can address some of these I think...

What happened to Savitar's cult?
Good question! I completely forgot about them

Why is Killer Frost evil?
Also good question. I actually think this was addressed in an offhand comment but can't seem to recall. I could be wrong.

Why is Cisco such a d!ck about a dead brother he didn't even like?
It's family, man. Even the ones you don't get along with you still love. And having him taken away so early strips you of any chance on building a real relationship, somethings Cicso was seen attempting to do a few times in Season 2. He wanted him and his brother to get along. Now he won't get that chance.

Why does no one believe in Wally?
If I'm remembering correctly, Joe "just got his son back" and didn't want him getting involved in anything that might get him killed, and the others went along with it out of respect for Joe. But there were a lot of comments towards Joe telling him to get over it and that he can do this. Eventually Joe did, and Wally did.

How does a kid make a giant holographic monster?
You're watching a show where people can casually whip up a "speed force bazooka." Just gotta roll with science in this show is accessible to anyone with a big idea and resources.

Why doesn't Barry know how to avoid gorilla punches? Or Gypsy? Or, really, why can't Barry fight ANYONE?
By extension, you can apply this logic to all superheroes. James Marsters once told a story about being tied up in an episode of Buffy, and he asked Joss Whedon "But I just came crashing through the wall. How am I not strong enough to snap some rope?" and Joss said "You're as strong and as weak as the story needs to be most dramatic." This is generally the rule of thumb when watching/writing superhero stories. If you try to break it down to a logical science, you will never, ever be satisfied. Especially when it comes to time-travelling speedsters.

Where was Jessie in the final fight?
Earth 2. I assume Earth 2 has it's own problems that needs a Flash if Earth 1 is any indication. By same logic, how come Jesse never seems to come to Earth 1 to ask Barry for help whenever there's a problem? Or Flash to Supergirl? etc...

Why did Barry propose--then get broken up--then break up?
To try and disrupt the chain of events the lead her to her death. Remember the dominos theory? They went over this.

That damn musical Supergirl crossover.
It was disappointing to me, but tons of people loved it.

Why would everyone treat a Barry time remnant like dirt?
It's not that much of a stretch, man. And I think it was more inside of Savitar's head than anything else. Put yourself in his shoes for a second. Everything you remember and everything you own is no longer yours. It's someone else who looks exactly like you. Your girlfriend? Not yours anymore. Your job? Not yours. You can't share the same social scene without having to address why sometimes you have a hideous scar on your face. Everything you knew is no longer yours, it's someone else's. In other words, being "treated like dirt" was more likely just everyone not figuring out where this new Barry fits in and him resenting the situation for it.

Why will no one resurrect Leonard Snart?
He just learned of the ramifications of resurrecting his mother this season. Why would he go out of his way to do so for a villain?

I know this season was easily the show's worst, but a lot of the issues people have have been addressed in some way or another. Doesn't mean they're necessarily good answers, either

Well I finally finished watching S2 of the Flash and I have mixed opinions, for the most part i loved it, however it wasn't as good as S1 and I started seeing a lot of faults that arrow has been getting over the last few seasons.

Why do they keep making the casts of these CW shows so big? They can't keep up with them and they keep introducing more and more. This season dealt less and less with villains of the week and more about the story arc, which kind of sucks there needs to be a balance. It isn't as bad as Arrow but more focus was put on the season arc than the individual episodes.

I hate what they do with the relationships, why does everyone have to date everyone? And why does everyone die and not die and whatever. Again, it's not as bad as Arrow has gotten but it's on the path. Zoom was an awesome villian but so many "twists" tainted his run as a villian.

The season kind of ran of steam by the end and the last episodes were kind of meh, but overall It was still great and I'm glad there's a flash show, since he's one of my favorite heroes.

*Vegita-San* · 06-25-2017, 11:15 AM

they are relying too much on the speed villains.

everyone is like 'yeah, you thought the LAST guy was your nemesis, but really it's me'..

I have no rival!

*Shark_Blade* · 06-25-2017, 02:49 PM

Oh man I'm missing out a lot on these superheroes tv series.

I stumbled on Supergirl on Netflix and finished binge watching Season 1 . Among the episodes, there's a Flash crossover and he seems interesting. Sure enough, here I am, hooked after the first Pilot episode.

I read there's gonna be a Season 4 on October 10! Ah, what a blessing!

In the meantime, I probably need to check Arrow too cause the Flash also met him in Pilot lol.

*sdp* · 06-25-2017, 03:08 PM

Speedsters make awesome villains though, I've always been a fan of them even in the comics.

Barry is first introduced in the second season of Arrow, which is now in the fifth season. Arrow was the first show in this "universe" so it's usually called the Arrowverse, that first season of Arrow is all kinds of awesome, each episode is like watching a Batman movie.

But yeah, it's gotten to be too much tv for me to watch, another show spins off Arrow and Flash called Legends of Tomorrow so that's another hour long show to watch every year. Not counting some cartoon shorts that they've also made.

Con trailer didn't exactly wow. Hopefully they right the ship after a pretty bad third season. No more speedster end boss for a season please?

Dude, you need to play catchup.

S4's big bad is The Thinker.
