The Flash‘s return is a tremendous amount of timeline-tweaking fun, though the premiere closes with a gut-punch of a twist.

TV Flash continues to be the most satisfying of all the broadcast network adaptations of comic-book superheroes.

Like the Earth-2 storylines, the alternate timeline is so much fun when it comes to seeing our favorite characters with different personalities and alternte lives.

Although “Flashpoint” might disappoint fans who were hoping that the show might try something a bit more ambitious upfront, it does set up what could turn out to be a standout season for The Flash.

Season 3 was such a wildly fun ride, i absolutely loved the twists, and it just felt real.

Season 3 is where things started getting a lot more annoying. Barry travelled back in time to create The Flashpoint Paradox (no, it's nothing even close to being as good as the graphic novel or the animated movie was). Because of this John had a son instead of a daughter, everyone was upset from their interpersonal conflicts (read keeping secrets from each other) and Cisco's brother Dante had died. Now Cisco is suddenly very snobby all the time and he wastes a lot of runtime crying about Dante, until a crossover episode of Legends of Tomorrow where he finally makes the same mistake and decides to forgive Flash who was going to sacrifice himself because it's a rule that the character who has been wronged for so long will decide to leave just before everyone learns it's not his fault. So this time the bad guy is Savitar who, just like Zoom, wants to kill all the speedsters out there. So Barry keeps knowing about the future where Savitar kills Iris and he isn't able to run fast enough to save her. Finally when he beats Savitar multiple speedforce portals open and Barry leaves the team to go in them.

This season is a huge letdown. The entirety of the season is yet again, rinse and repeat of the first. The Flashpoint storyline is wasted and replaced halfway through the season for a story about saving Iris. Who, by the way, has been turned into an extremely whiny and annoying character. The villain, Savitar, was nowhere near mysterious and his identity was so predictable. I did enjoy the first half of the season, not so much the second half.

[SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.]

Probably it would`ve be much better if The Flash would consists of 8-13 episodes per season, as there`s too much stupidity when extending this series to +22 episodes..................NEXT !!!
