thebiglebowski Posted January 20, 2016 Author Share Posted January 20, 2016 I spent the last 2 weeks watching all of Flash and I caught up just in time for the premiere tonight. Tried watching Arrow but just couldn't get into it. Loving Flash, though. I'm not sure if it was intentional or not but they did the right move starting with Arrow and then bringing in Flash. Flash's superpowers really upstage Oliver's abilities. If you were already invested in 2 seasons of Arrow before Flash existed, it's probably easier to enjoy.

marc32137 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 So you watched both from the beginning then? I like Arrow. Season 1 was a nice intro to the hero. 2 was crazy awesome and is probably my favorite. 3 wasn't as good and I felt was missing something. And 4 seems to be getting back on track though. But, I agree with The Flash! It's probably DC's best superhero show right now. I've only seen the first few episodes of Arrow. Didn't hold my attention much at all. I found Flash to be much easier to digest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad Heart Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 New episode of the Flash was great. Let's just hope Detective Great Legs doesn't leave for good. I love her character, and the plot of her and Barry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avery Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 i think both arrow and flash have the same amount of drama, definitely, but i think there's something about queen's acting and some of the other actors (like laurel maybe) that puts people off. like that forced contemplative dramatic expression. then there's queen's bad wig in the flashbacks. barry sometimes gets that conflicted super hero look that's dramatic, but he's like a lovable geek like felicity is and most people find that endearing i guess. i have no idea. i'm just guessing but i've heard other people complain about arrow the same way i see it in here. i taped legends of tomorrow, might watch tonight. my husband and i already watch flash, arrow and gotham. i'd rank it 1. arrow 2. gotham 3. flash. i like the dark elements of the first two. the parallel universes in this current season of flash are putting me off a little, but i still like it for the most part. husband would rank it 1. gotham 2. flash 3. arrow. he only watches arrow because i do, i think he otherwise sleeps through it.

thebiglebowski Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 Who do you think is in the grave? I'm guessing Diggle. If not him, Lance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFP Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I love Gotham. I'd say Gotham is first followed closely by the Flash. Arrow just continually puts me off. I don't say this word, ever, but to me Arrow is cringeworthy. I wish Arrow could find something unique to portray instead of trying to be "Batman with a bow and arrows."

Sad Heart Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Who do you think is in the grave? I'm guessing Diggle. If not him, Lance. Hopefully the whole cast. I just can't handle that show anymore. I'm done with Arrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cantdance Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Arrow has been pretty good this season, I think. I just wish they'd stop with the flashbacks. They quit serving a purpose in season 2 and they kill so much momentum. The Flash has been great, I love it but it has some problems too. Especially how it writes off characters by them inexplicably leaving the city haha. Legends was fun enough. I love Snart and Sara, and that's about it. The others range from average to those awful hawk people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avery Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 legends kind of bored me. too much going on with all the different characters. i loathingly watched heroes reborn and that had too much going on with each character's arc, too. i'll give it another chance with the next episode or 2 since the first is always an intro, but i might drop it. my husband says the same about the flashbacks in arrow. he doesn't like them. personally, i enjoy them and i think it contributes to the story overall. i was really not into the lazarus pit thing with thea coming back and then sarah. i'm glad ra's al ghul's daughter destroyed it. i'm intrigued by damien darhk's character. no idea who's in the grave, but diggle or lance are good guesses. can't see it being laurel or thea.

thebiglebowski Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 Laurel is one of those characters you know will not die throughout the entire show. The flashbacks did serve the purpose of showing us where the nasty scars on his back came from this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebiglebowski Posted February 7, 2016 Author Share Posted February 7, 2016 The masked dude being Roy was really obvious. Roy sliding out of that explosion was pretty sweet. Who has tv rights to Superman now? Them mentioning him in legends has me hopeful they could assemble something together. Tom Welling doesn't seem to be too busy..

THE_James_Champ Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 I'm loving Flash this season, and Arrow is taking some damn awesome turns. Legends is great so far too, lots of humor mixed in with the seriousness. I'm actually excited for the Supergirl/Flash crossover happening in March.
