    This season is a repeat of last season. All the same problems and all the same speeches. It is predicable and boring. I keep hoping they bring back the fun of last season. This season is all about depression and pouting. I'm not going to give spoilers but they haven't surprised me yet this year.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. ** Spoilers** I wanted to start by saying that after watching 46 episodes of this show, more than once, I don't see how WB can pick any other actor to play The Flash. This kid on the TV show is definitely, The Flash. Anyway, I digress. Season 2 was highly flawed. A combination of lazy writing, and miscasting, ex. Jesse Quick and Wally West, both of whom can't act. We were emotionally connected and invested to Ronnie in Season 1 and then they go and kill him off in the first episode of Season 2. Thanks a lot CW. The Zoom reveal, lazy. From what I read, The Flash is your number 1 show, and yet, all the emphasis seemed to be placed on your spin off show, and therefore, The Flash, this season suffered tremendously. One strong point of Season 1, was that Barry did not have a relationship. Linda lasted 2 episodes at the most. His focus was on being The Flash, saving his mother and Iris. With that said, Patty Spivot was a major weakness in the show. Don't you understand Berlanti corp? that the people watching Flash and Arrow are not teeny boppers? They are hardcore action lovers and comic lovers. We do not want to see this lovey dovey crap. We want to see Barry focus on being The Flash -- like he did in Season 1. I stopped watching Arrrow in Season 3 when I realized that the show was turing into a soap opera and I will do the same for this show. Stop with the villain of the week!!! This isn't 1995 TV anymore. With shows like Daredevil and Game of Thrones, aim higher for crying out loud!! Don't be happy with the status quo. This show deserves more. I just paid $50 whopping dollars for the Season 2 Blueray and for what? For bad writing, sappy love stories and more BS decisions that Barry will make in Season 3? Please Andrew Kreisberg, hear my plea!!!!… Expand

    Nitpicks aside, though, The Flash is definitely off to a strong start, proving that last year most definitely wasn’t a fluke. Building on the history of what’s come before and adding a lot of new elements which are sure to pay off at some point over the course of the next 22 episodes, season 2 of The Flash has all the makings of another amazing year of television.

    The whole season promises to be about head-spinning paradox, as exec producers Greg Berlanti and Andrew Kreisberg and their writers are boldly venturing into multiverse territory.

    Although these series can’t compete with feature budgets, The Flash delivers enough action to effectively work on that level, and has developed a strong array of characters to function as a drama, peppered with humor that happily avoids the trap of camp.... This CW series--seemingly emboldened by its success--isn’t hitting the brakes at all as it races into the future, or the past, or wherever its two-dimensional roots might lead it.
