Season 6 frustrating
When it first came out, I had watched the first few episodes of season six and quit. I couldn’t remember why so I decided to start a rewatch of the show since it used to be my absolute favorite, and I’ve just reached season six and understand why I quit.
I am so incredibly frustrated with the fact that everybody continuously blames Barry for everything that might go wrong. It seems like if their breakfast was too cold in the morning they would blame Barry. And when he shows concern for literally anything, they ignore him and tell him he’s being so dramatic. It’s as if he’s not allowed to have emotions because he’s supposed to be the leader. Meanwhile, everyone else is allowed to be overly emotional and treat him like crap.
Obviously, Barry is not perfect and makes mistakes and eventually they always figure it out together, but my biggest frustration this season is very immediately new Iris wasn’t his wife. He’s known her his whole entire life and the second something was the slightest bit off he knew, but when he tried to tell somebody (that being Joe) he was immediately told that he needs to get with the program essentially. Iris changed and he needs to catch up. So now he’s trying to understand the new world he’s in all of the main characters are kind of doing their own thing. He’s losing his speed, wondering why Iris isn’t acting like his iris, meanwhile, everybody else is treating him bad. And then when he finally has had enough with this fake Iris, he tells Cecile who at the very beginning looks like him like he’s absolutely insane as if he doesn’t know his own wife. Now Cisco is acting all pissy and sad because his girlfriend is also gone, which makes sense but he’s treating Barry horribly. All the wild everybody know is Barry does not have his speed and they’re still blaming him for not being able to help in the way that they’re used to him helping.
Anyway, I’m on episode 18 and I’m getting so many Temptations to just quit again because I’m getting so upset over his treatment.
Does anyone else feel this way??
