r/FlashTV

I've not seen Season 2 in ages.

However I distinctly remember Zoom explaining how he managed to kill himself in front of the group.

He says he went back in time and met another version of himself (who Cisco and zoom call the remnant) and convinced that past self to pretend to be Jay and be killed.

However especially in the finale it's established the speedster who appears from the future is the remnant. The guy who's minding his own business is the original.

That's what it is, it's in the name, Remnant of the future that never happened, not:

oh your living your life in your timeline, I'm from the future and replacing you, now please die.

How could the writers fuck up their own explanation of what a time remnant is???

I can't remember this pissing anyone else off, it just gets glossed over.

Started rewatching the flash today and noticed that his lab and the boys' apartment from New Girl is the same.

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??

Wanted to start my next rewatch of the Show. When we See Jung Barry getting Run away by flash, the lightning that brought him there was yellow Even tho it should have been Red cause the flash (Red) saved him Not thawne (yellow)

Am i Missing Something? Is that explainable? Or is it Just an Error

In season 9 episode 6, Cecile missed her train and was heartbroken because she would miss the birthday breakfast of her daughter. but why didn't she just call Barry to ask him if he could take her there. I know Barry and iris were away but it would take a few minutes for him maximum. So why? Or is this just something we just have to accept again?

In order for a metahuman to gain powers they must have the meta gene, but they said that Caitlyn does have the metagene. So how she has powers?

Flashpoint couldn't have done this because Barry's mothers murders was years after Caitlyn was born.

Why does everyone in the Flash show pretend like Oliver is this dark irredeemable guy, mainly Iris and Joe but sometimes the others, even though he’s proven time and time again that he’s changed? In season 5 of the Flash crossover episode, Iris begged Barry not to turn into Oliver as if that was a bad thing or something

I just don’t get why everyone still looked depressed as shit and all hope lost after Iris’s death. It’s so annoying how her death just makes everyone lose their way. she’s not all that honestly and it’s so annoying.

Are there people here who are currently in the midst of watching the show for the first time scrolling aimlessly through new posts this sub? I feel like that’s not a good idea if you want to avoid spoilers. Someone just posted about something that happened in season 8 and one of the comments said that there should have been a spoiler warning. Season 8 wrapped up four years ago…I don’t think it’s fair to expect people to put a spoiler warning on their posts about it. Honestly, given that the show ended three years ago, I don’t think any post needs to have a spoiler warning. The show is long since over, and I feel like any new watchers should now scroll at their own risk.

Whenever I pick up a new show that’s been over for years, I do my best to avoid its subreddits at all costs in order to avoid spoilers. If I’m absolutely itching for to see what people were/are saying about a particular character or storyline, I search the sub with as much specificity as possible in my search terms and try to look for posts that were posted around the same time as when the episode I’m currently on aired. And if something gets spoiled, well that’s on me and no one else for coming to a forum where people are discussing something from years past (it happened to me while I was watching the Americans for the first time and I was so mad at myself lol).

I see a lot of requests for spoiler tags on posts and comments on this sub. I’ve even seen it for posts about things that happened as early as season *two*. I feel like it’s unreasonable to expect people to put spoiler tags on anything at this point. If people do put spoiler tags on something, then it should be appreciated as a generous gesture. But it shouldn’t be an expectation. The show has been over for years; people talking about it should be able to talk about it freely.
