agreed. Cavanagh is great as Wells. And it's good to see him play a non-comedic role. He's done it before. But here, he's fantastic.

YUP. I really like the emotional moments here more than I do on Arrow. On Arrow, they feel forced in a lot of respects (mainly because not everyone in the cast can pull them off well...I love Stephen Amell, but emotional moments for him look like a struggle). But they work here.

Not only that. But Candice Patton (Iris) said in an interview she has her own run-in with one of the show villains in Episode 6 and she hinted that it may be surprising how Iris deals with him in addition to her and Felicity meeting I think in tonight's crossover episode...i think that's tonight.

The Flash is a great show and an example of how a superhero tv show looks like it's getting it RIGHT.

NOW, IF NBC'S CONSTANTINE comes hard like I'm hoping it will, then DC Comics TV will be three for three with tv shows...

Marvel will still be tops with the Netflix shows they're doing next year....Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. though? yeesh...
