Spoilers The Flash - Season 3

The CW released a synopsis for episode 3x02 called Paradox:
THE AFTERMATH — Barry (Grant Gustin) realizes the effects from Flashpoint are much greater than he thought. Meanwhile, Barry meets new co-worker Julian Albert (Tom Felton) and is surprised by Julian’s immediate disdain for Barry.

It's really rather vague in which reality this takes place, "The Aftermath" would suggest it features Barry's return to the regular timeline. But "Barry realizes the effects" would suggest he's still in an alternate reality. Also supporting that are the names of episodes, Ep 1 is Flashpoint, and Ep 2 is Paradox, and The Flashpoint Paradox was the name of the movie based on Flashpoint the comic book so I guess we can presume they might be a two-parter type thingy?
 
It's possible that Barry does an immediate fix on the timeline, but it's not perfect...he can't quite put humpty dumpty back together again.
 
It sounds to me like it's still in the Flashpoint timeline. I'm pretty sure I've read somewhere that the producers/writers have already said it will be more than one episode, but won't take up the whole season.
 
The change is my fault now. I tried editing it and that did not work. So I just deleted the post. How about this? I blame Barry changing history... ;)

Looks good. Somebody remind me again why Jay wanted to keep the hat of his kidnapper?

Earth 2 Wells told Jay that on his world the helmet gave people hope. Considering Zoom stole so much from Jay, he wanted to steal something from Zoom and make that hope real now.

I am still not completely satisfied by that explanation. It would suggest that for years the real Jay was the Flash with no mask or helmet. I would rather had it been revealed that Zoom was lying that it was his father's helmet.

In TV Guide's Comic Con special issue it was revealed the original plan was for John to wear a replica of his old suit from his own series as Jay. They changed their minds. I am glad they did. While a cool throwback it would have undermined that Jay Garrick is a completely separate character with his own unique costume.
 
That is pretty cool. I really hope before the end of the season we get to see Barry, Jay, Wally, and Jessie all in costume together.
 
While I dig the Jay Garrick look and especially the helmet being kept, I'll remain disappointed because the one they used for Zoom was - IMO - much better and in some ways truer to the original. Maybe colorize the lightning bolt, but otherwise it's golden.

Possible SPOILER at the link Do not look if you not want to know http://www.tvguide.com/tvshows/the-flash/episode-1-season-3/flashpoint/644014/

TVGuide has a name for a guest actor in the premiere that has not been reported anywhere. I found this because an early review hinted at surprise appearance without saying their name. But googling my suspicion and the episode title turned this up.
A lot of people will be very happy. This type of stuff is why DCTV is seemingly loved more than the DC FU

Ooh. Given what I've been watching lately, one of those new names does ring a bell:D

Ooh! Finally! I was wondering when they'd get around to that person...
