After seeing the promo and reading the synopsis, I knew this episode was going to be bad to average. And i was correct. There were some good aspects but there were more boring and cringy ones.
I liked the interactions between Barry and Kramer. It added character depth and perhaps adds an importance to upcoming episodes.
Goldface is a poor villain. All cringe, no sense.
I understand that the flash is trying to make the interlude episodes lighter and funnier, but this is absolutely pathetic. What is the point of these interlude episodes if they are not entertaining to watch. When there are problems in the main storylines ,such as pacing issues ,why make interlude episodes?
Clearly Eric Wallace hasn't learnt his lesson from last season and i wonder if he sees the ratings of the flash and reads the reviews which the audience give.
Back to the episode, and NOT coincidentally, back to the drama couples of Allegra and Chester, and Frost and Chill-lame. Like why are these 2 couples even a thing? It's just so..... Yuck. Frost has lost her meaning in the show. The name "Killer" has officially become a joke. Frost should be written out of the show, where she and chill-lame take off and live their lives in a non flash world.
Allegra and Chester are alright (not great) as individual characters if they work in their respective fields. But being a couple is thrash. I don't know why the writers are shipping them when the audience is literally crying that they are together. The couple should just end. I don't care how, even if it is illogical, it should just end.
I'm not deeply interested in Caitlin's dating story, but i have a feeling it's tied up to Ronnie returning, so looking forward to that.
Iris's time sickness is intriguing, with that time jump cliff hanger at the end. I hope they take this story in a positive direction.
Overall: very average episode- 7/10.
I'm excited to see next episode as it looks like it involves mainly Barry and CSI stuff. Also more development into Iris's time sickness is expected. I have good vibes about it but Eric Wallace can bring that crashing down just like the previous episode.
I said this in my previous review and I'll say it again until it becomes reality: Fire Eric Wallace. He's just a worn out showrunner who is all talk and doesn't execute his ideas to a good level. He makes the same mistake, season after season.
