PS. I think I may even stop watching Arrow. I watched up to the mid season finale. Good enough stopping point for me I think. Left it on the DVR so we'll see how I feel about it in late January. Hope there's not many Flash crossovers on Arrow in the future that I may miss Guess I could always watch those on demand or something if needed.
FLASH is all good though!

I don't watch ARROW, for the FLASH/ARROW crossovers, I just watch the one episode of ARROW that I need to so I can see the end of the 2-ep arc. I usually do fine that way.

Really enjoyed the return of the Reverse Flash in this ep. And I like that now we are really seeing the fact that Barry, Zoom, and RF all exist kind of outside time and timelines when in the Speed Force, enough to make RF showing up (even after last seasons sacrifice by Eddie). The idea that time corrects for itself when anomalies or fixed points are screwed with. So my guess is that since Eddie sacrificed himself, someone else in the Thawne timeline must give birth to Eobard as time correcting for itself. I know they talked about a time bubble/bomb...but this makes more sense to me.

Yes, it was a very good episode. RF is a great villain and I'm glad to see he isn't gone "just like that".

I've watched through season one of the Flash, and I 've enjoyed it quite a bit. I never could get into Arrow, and I thought Gotham was atrocious, but this was just the right amount of light hearted fun for me to just hang on for the ride. I did find the romance sub-plot with his adopted sister unnecessary, or at least poorly done (and it weirded me out how no one were weirded out by it). The villain was great I thought and the effects surprisingly well done.
I think the full impact of the finale was lost on me because at one point it became impossible for me to ignore my disbelief.

Yeah, I have to agree with you on that be-spoilered point. That was just one big completely irresponsible decision they took. Not to mention the sheer arrogance and selfishness of doing something so monumentously dangerous where they simply cannot predict the outcome. But the story needed to move forward with that point as it is an established Flash lore event.
Screw you all, and have a nice day!

Loved the most recent ep. Going back in his own timeline to Wells/Thawne to try to get more speed to beat Zoom...only to have EVERYTHING go south. Just a solid episode start to finish!
Time Wraiths?! Coooooool. Also all the requisite Harry Potter dementor jokes too!

Flash was in the latest episode of Super-Girl. I think the episode aired a week or two ago, just watched it on my DVR.

It was a CRAP episode... except for the Flash bits (which were awesome). Supergirl is just a bad show sadly.
I'm bummed that FLASH only JUST came back from a hiatus of a number of weeks...only to go off til Apr 19th again. Boooo. Me wanty FLASH!

Only just caught up... just watched the shark ep with the reveal at the end. The airing for this show seems all over the place, but it might be due to trying to time the crossover eps with Arrow and Supergirl.
Good reveal; wasn't quite what I expected. I'm not sure that he can be the same as the one that has been helping, as it doesn't really make sense.

The schedule switching seems to be a combination of the shooting schedule, and pushing stuff around for holidays and into May Sweeps. The latter point is the bigger one as it's a dinosaur from the days of 1970's and 1980's "appointment" TV (basically the pre-VCR days when if you missed something you were screwed so if you wanted to watch you had to be home that night on that day at that time)...and how Neilsen dealt with ratings, those months were the biggest report months, so networks always would have holes in the schedule earlier in the season to push the big last few eps into those months and nail those ratings reports.
None of that means jack these days with the PVR, online, streaming ect. We can choose when we watch stuff, and as a result the whole Sweeps thing is useless, but networks still do it for some reason.
Then there was whatever show first did the whole "Winter Hiatus" bullshit first, and led the pack in that. Now we have something like 80% of shows going on like a two month hiatus in the winter months. I think it may be the Walking Dead of Breaking Bad which was responsible for that break...but whoever it was, I hate them. LOL

Didn't know anything about sweeps, cheers QT. Just noticed the other week that the Flash had gone.. and there was nothing on the catch up channels; it just went, with no reason that I could see. I just keep an eye on the planner until it reappears on some seemingly random date.
So that's the story. And what was the real lesson? Don't leave things in the fridge.

I think they actually do those breaks because they are filming the second half of the season while the first half is starting to air, so they have time for post production, also so they can air reruns while the viewer isn't "tuned out" of the date & time, if the show is over it's off your radar to check if a new episode is on.

Ya, Flash was best part of the show. I still watch Supergirl, but ya, it's not my favorite show, and I don't think it's super terrible, but ya, it's not great by any stretch. I still kind of like it overall though. Better than Arrow!
