At 11, Barry Allen's life changed completely when his mother died in a freak accident and his innocent father was convicted of her murder. Now a crime-scene investigator, his dedication to learn the truth about his mother's death drives him to follow up on every new scientific advancement and urban legend. When his latest obsession -- a particle accelerator heralded as a world-changing invention -- causes an explosion, it creates a freak storm and Barry is struck by lightning. He awakes from a coma nine months later with the power of superspeed. When he learns that others who have gained powers use them for evil, he dedicates himself to protecting the innocent, while still trying to solve the older mystery.

It's a lot to get through, and some of it works better than others. Go to Full Review David Sims The Atlantic 10/07/2015
The Flash's second season begins, as Buffy's always would, by having its heroes pick up the pieces, and it does so nicely. Go to Full Review Li Lai Mediaversity Reviews 08/05/2019

Season 2 of The Flash continues to be a mix of good intentions and significant missteps. Go to Full Review Rob Bricken io9.com 07/23/2018
I believe The Flash season 2 is building a framework to keep from completely baffling its viewers later; they've started by re-establishing the foundation, the very basics of the show. Go to Full Review Kevin Fitzpatrick ScreenCrush 06/19/2018
There's much more to consider going into Season 3 than "The Race of His Life" necessarily wrought during the hour itself, but the overall construction felt admirably solid. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Sage T @Fcknlayars Dec 5 I pity whoever got married to a lover of this show, Newsflash! you married a fckn dummy, you know they buy ratings and reviews too right? This is all propaganda, this show is the worst thing on earth and if you don't believe me, see for yourself https://youtu.be/bZGuHJLMxUo?si=xw-yZCGCgTEWg5Tf See more Esli M @Esli9187 Jul 20 Amazing writing and zoom was perfect the suit got a little better and so did practically everything else. See more Faiz D May 14 Another strong season. See more stefan C Apr 19 I dont Care what they said Zoom is my Favorite Flash Villian! See more Julian B Feb 19 Zoom was the perfect villan for this season. He looked like a demon and I as a wachter was terrified of him. The Flash and Barry Allen were played perfect by Grand Gustin. Cisco was the best sidecharacter in Superhero history. The story made scene and they were not that many plotholes. The only reason for 4,5 stars is that the didnt do anything new. See more Kai N 01/18/2025 Who is more right break down these iq how knowledge they debating idk who these people are to:@Capybara_cook: Realistically, Light should have won because it was impossible to create an exact copy of the Death Note in the given time. Even if they had made a copy, Light could have given his follower a page. Vs @Kaito: It's funny how you think you're right. The brain tricks itself into believing it understands. You are mistaken. Light’s downfall wasn't about the time limit or copying the Death Note. It was his underestimation of L and Near's intellect. Even if a follower had a page, Light would still have faced major risks, like Mikami’s mistakes or Near's clever traps. Light lost because of his arrogance, not just because of timing or copying.
