The Flash is a great show with lots of twists and turns. I've really enjoyed watching this show.

This show gives so much good feelings. I really recommend it. At least watch until season 2.

A show that makes you cry, feel vindicated, happy, and a whole host of feelings.
Sadly, the writing spiralled from parts of Season Two all the way to the final season. It was genuinely surprising it got the green light after Season Three. I guess the investor really loves The Flash?
Yes, I really did watch everything and it was simply to complete the series (and because I wanted to finally see Iris have Nora!!! - my God, did they milk that).
Overall, some of the ideas were good. The writing though... -_-
