Barry’s initial work training Cisco and Caitlin in the ways of flashtime made for a nice visual, and was a nice symbol of how interconnected this cast is and how the show relies on everyone to be their best (hence my annoyance at their treatment of Caitlin this year). A spin-off of Arrow, based on the DC Comics series.

A freak accident causes a forensic scientist to become a superhero after he gains the ability to move at incredible speed. The intro, which I already discussed, is one. The Flash (2014) (a Titles & Air Dates Guide) Last updated: Fri, 0:00. There are a few things that save this episode, though. What’s worse, it’s pretty obvious that there were barely 13 episodes of actual story to be had this year, and we’re left with episodes like these most recent two, which have to fill their middle acts with confused rambling.

The show doesn’t seem equipped to deliver 23 episodes that try to lean as heavily on comedy as this season has. Watch The Flash - Season 4 Episode 22 - Think Fast Ep 22 English Subbed, After being struck by lightning, Barry Allen wakes up from his coma to discover. But the weaknesses of this season were apparent from early on. I hate singling out characters and performances like this. In fact, it goes so big, so quickly, that there’s almost nowhere left for the episode to go but down, as it struggles to fill the minutes between the episode’s. The beginning of Think Fast is fairly epic in scope. Her meta powers have been a perplexing irritant since day one, and we were saddled with no fewer than three “comedy” scenes with her in this episode, including an agonizingly unfunny moment with a pizza delivery guy. The Enlightenment begins on The Flash Season 4 Episode 22, Think Fast, as DeVoe once again outsmarts Barry and friends with what appears to be comparative ease. Cecile is saddled with the most excruciating scenes and dialogue of the entire season in this episode. I fear that whatever nonsensical addition to her origin story we were teased with tonight will only serve to undermine Caitlin’s character even further.Īnd then there is Cecile, a formerly great character, played by a talented actress. This whole thing was barely funny when it was couples’ therapy early in the season, and the fact that we’re still spending time here in the second to last episode of the season is astounding.Īnd once again, as it was last week, Caitlin’s pining for Killer Frost is simplistic nonsense and a disservice to the journey we’ve seen this character take over the last four years. There is no well more dry than the “superhero in therapy and the therapist is trying to offer straight diagnoses for extraordinary problems” gag. How are we supposed to feel about this? Because the only thing I feel is annoyed, especially when he’s walking around bellowing for “West-Allen.”Īs if this wasn’t enough, we’re then brought into another therapy session, this time involving Caitlin. It’s not particularly tragic, and the humor isn’t funny.
#The flash season 4 episode 22 series#
This is a beloved character played by a series regular who is integral to the fabric of the show. All that goodwill was immediately squandered by the show’s insistence on playing Harry’s mental decline for nothing but laughs in another seemingly endless sequence of alleged comedy, centering on Iris’ “all-important” blog…which ends up not even being all that important.
