    ^ I keep wondering if he'll ever have his powers taken away given how he got them.

    I wonder what would have happened on that show if they had made it to 2016.

    Next week's episode looks like it is going to be a lot of fun:

    We came home late, so I missed the first 20 minutes. I walked in when Barry was telling Wally that he was supposed to be shadowing...I was afraid we were seeing a repeat instead of the listed new episode.

    I was confused. Is that a different earth Iris?

    ^ I didn't see anything to indicate that. Cool if it were though. It would explain Paula Marshall.

    I saw something about a villain called gypsy but I don't read the Flash comics. It sure looked like Iris.

    It looked like her? I don't know really, just my first thought.

    After doing a little reading no it's not Iris. Looks like a fun episode though.

    As for Wally's fan club, remember that the JL animated version of Wally (who was admittedly the Flash, not Kid Flash), was a bit of a showboater in the early days.

    I don't see the resemblance. The actress is Sleepy Hollow's Jessica Camacho.

    For a brief second, when she first came out of the portal I thought it might have been Iris, but once I got a better look I realized it wasn't.
    This one was pretty cool.
    The stuff with the Museum was pretty fun, the rest of the team's reaction to everything HR was doing were funny. I like the virtual tour guide Cisco.
    The flashforward gave us some cool little hints about what's to come later in the season.
    I'm glad Barry has learned his lesson and told almost everybody else about what he saw in the future. I do think their reason for not telling Joe makes a lot of sense.
    I like Julien joining Team Flash, he's grown on me a lot as the season has gone on, and I'm glad he'll be taking a more active role in the story.
    Barry and Wally working together publicly with both fully suited up was pretty cool.

    I have to say Iris and Caitlyn looked especially beautiful when they were all dressed up.

    Yeah. Never watched sleepy hollow though so didn't know who the actress was.

    I'd read that Camacho was going to show up as Gypsy (though I'm hoping they don't actually use that name in dialogue, since it's an ethnic slur), and I saw her name in the guest credits, which surprised me, because I hadn't thought she was going to show up until next week. So I waited the whole episode for her introduction, and in the closing moments, I realized, "Oh, I guess she'll just be in the tag scene." But I hadn't expected them to go full Luke Skywalker and not even have her say a word.


    What is it with Tom Felton and obnoxious bad guys who turn out to be sympathetic and redeemable?

    He has it in all his contracts. It was ultimately what caused the producers to "go another way" with the Hitler biopic.

    Her resemblance to Iris struck me, too...similar physical types. I'm calling that Dead Future Iris is her using H. R.'s face-altering tech.

    "Barry, when is it supposed to happen?"
    "Season finale, when else? I'd call Ollie to help us, but he'll be busy."

    The little thing that annoyed me about Wally's moment in the spotlight is that he didn't bother to vibrate his face and/or alter his voice...which disagrees with the conceit that Barry needs to do it. Much like Ollie being the only one on Team Arrow who bothers to mask his voice.

    I assumed the new girl was Earth 18's female doppleganger of Cisco. She has the same powers, and Cisco used the word "gorgeous" in the way people usually refer positively/jokingly to their dopplegangers in sci-fi shows and comics.

    Based on the Arrow Season finales I've seen, it seems like Ollie always has time to Barry, and vise versa. Oliver is Ra's al Gul? Let's head over to Central City because of reasons. ;)

    Well, in Oliver's defense, Star(ling) City is basically a giant pit of doom and gloom. Anybody would jump at a chance to get out of there for a day.

    As for Barry: it's hard to give an excuse about 'not having the time' when you have super-speed.
