It’s paradox time on The Flash.

Things definitely got timey-wimey, and it was just fine.

Here’s Mike’s review…

ThisThe Flashreview contains spoilers.

Wait…didnt I start last weeks review like that?

Nevertheless, its appropriate.

I simply cant believe that this show is willing to do some of the things it does.

Perhaps more to the point, I sometimes cant believe it does them at all.

Honestly, I cant quite explain why Im okay with this, but I am.

Its usually a good feeling, and youre only let down when you wake up before accomplishing your goal.

And could things have been any more different between Cisco and Harrisons chat from week to week?

It would just feel like another natural step in Cisco and Harrisons close relationship.

I hopeGothamis taking notes.

Some of this is to be expected, simply by the nature of these types of episodes.

Its a major flaw in the shows logic, and theyre going to have to address it soon.

That being said, it makes up for it with Barry and Colds little chat in the woods.

Ill get to that in a minute, though.

This makes for a fine segue into this weeks jaunt with the actual Rogues.

He was a little too broad in his first appearance.

I suppose I do have to take issue with Barrys rather abrupt change of heart on Harrison Wells.

Flash Facts!

So, Eddie was kinda justified in slugging Barry.

What the hell, show?

Why do you have to be, yknow, this good?

That being said, his behavior is still pretty erratic lately.

Now, about that chat with Barry and Mr. Snart.

Fans of the comics know that Flashs rogues arent Batmans.

They arent maniacs or serial killers.

They commit crimes because, well, they love crime.

This conversation was such a perfect encapsulation of that Rogue philosophy.

I believe the Santini family have turned up in Gotham City…but not on that show.

Well, this show has suddenly built a nice arc for Cisco, hasnt it?

Theyve done well with not beating us too heavily with his potentially superheroic future.

At this point, I dont even care how it happens.

They havent disappointed on the big reveals yet.
