He's just too much a gimp to be a time traveller with an evil master plan.
There's something women say when they see a man in his late 20s dating a girl still not 20...
"You're dating a child because you are a child."
Although if Eddie is from the distant future and hates the Flash...
The temporal cock block is a pretty sweet move.
Imagine that ass#### who hates you, you know exactly who I am talking about, travels back in time and seduces your spouse a week before your first date?
What a ####.

I agree, if I take your meaning. I've been thinking Eddie Thawne is a red herring - possibly a distant ancestor of Eobard.
Reading the Wiki, Zoom is obsessed with Iris, and eventually murders her to cope with all that rejection.
I knew he killed her in the silver age, I just didn't know that he tried to seduce her away from Barry first.
So, that totally fits.
Sorry.
My mind just strayed to what would have happened if professor Zoom had tried to pull the Atom's wife, Jean Loring.
The fasted Deadman alive.

What if he's a placeholder?
Eobard arrives, kills his ancestor (Consequences much? Puts him in a secret prison.) and takes over his life.
He could be identical in appearance to Eddie, or Zoom could go back in time to before Eddie met any of these people and replace him "then" afterwhich the only people that notice the switch are Barry and Wells because of their perturbed relationship with Time, and remember both timelines.
In the comics he was. Or is. Depending on which version of the DCU you are talking about.
I endorse your Professor Zoom theory fully. The Wells character is pretty close to the twisted version of Zoom that Geoff Johns wrote during his run on Flash, an adversary that attacks the Flash to make him stronger and a better hero. Wells is sort of doing this now -- seeding the Flash's origins and guiding him on the "proper" path to be the best hero he can be. We've even seen him kill to protect the Flash's best interests.
Another parallel: I think it was this version of Zoom that didn't move fast but manipulated time so as to appear to move fast.
I'm still undecided on Eddie. The producers of the show may be mixing and matching pieces of different Reverse Flashes to suit their needs and keep us guessing on who's who (pun intended). Those leaked photos of Reverse Flash resemble the actor playing Eddie more than the actor playing Wells, so that certainly muddies the issue.
Except that Geoff Johns assures honestly, with no possibility of lying, that Wells is a new character.
He better be fibbing.

Are we going to get an actual Firestorm series, or not?
For a key series set like the police headquarters? There'd be nothing quick or generic about that. And I can tell at a glance that it is not the same set as the Daily Planet from Smallville. Here's a video tour of that set. The only similarities are a staircase and Art Deco styling. The Central City police station set is more open and airy by quite a margin. (They're different on the outside too. The location for the Planet exterior in Smallville was the Marine Building in Vancouver, while Vancouver City Hall doubles as the CCPD in The Flash.)
That's impossible, since the Outer Limits revival ended a year before the Galactica reboot began. You must be thinking of something else.
^ That's what I'm saying. The BSG production must have gotten a hold of it, meaning that it was stored somewhere for a number of years after it was used on The Outer Limits.
I guess sometimes sets will be stored if possible for later use as various trek series did.
Othertimes they might put them up for sale to recover some of the construction costs. the sets for thr Pegasus came from a failed lost in space remake.
Probably comes down to whether the set can be stored and the associated costs.
Noticed the computers used in Arrow are used in The Flash. Not sure if they are shared or different.
Also curiuos if they are real units (possibly thin clients) or mockups though i'm sure the earlier season one had IBM badges.
I was a little annoyed this week, with how they hung a lantern on the Flash being able to get into Iron Heights. A mature Flash could do it easily, but Barry applying what he'd thought about for years before he got powers, to do with his still freshly acquired powers, and zipping in as if there were a continuous series of open barriers, seemingly without even waiting for inner doors to open, was a little much.
Also, too bad if you're that guard choking on poison gas in the same room as the Flash's stepfather, and the Flash only has one antidote. That's just too bad....
Still, I'm sticking with the show, unlike Gotham.

Oh, I see. You said the set from BSG was used on OL, which implies it originated on BSG. You meant that the set from OL was used on BSG.
Yeah I was kinda wondering how he could have zipped through all the closed doors and security barriers so fast as well. Although who knows, maybe he got lucky and they were all open at the same time, or there aren't that many of them in this particular prison.
^But the thing is, they weren't using the revelation that Barry had considered breaking his father out of prison as an excuse for how he was able to get in so quickly; they used his need to get in so quickly as an excuse for having the discussion about how long he'd thought about getting his father out of prison. The plot serves the needs of the characterizations, not the other way around.
True, but it still strains credibility a bit to think he could have zoomed into the prison as quickly and easily as he did.
Actually when the idea was brought up, I was kinda hoping we'd get a fun and extended "breaking in" scene like we saw with Quicksilver in DOFP (granted, it's only a prison and not the lower levels of the Pentagon he's breaking into, but they still could have done something more with the idea than they did I think).

He stole a few key cards while co-opting several guardstations?
He can't "vibrate" through walls yet but can he run up the sides of buildings?
Has he ran on water yet?

When Caitlin Snow was talking about the Honeymoon with her fiancé, insisting on that they goto Tahiti. I wished she would have said, "We should go to Tahiti, I hear it's a magical place." Well thats what I was thinking when they were having the discussion.
