How have I never noticed the Grodd mention til now

Alondra Dominique

She was also in grey's anatomy. The girl who live off the machine because she needed a new heart during the Holiday episode with Christina and Teddy. Also she is a child Disney star.

Kyra Sharp

Caitlin Snow was on Grimm. She was the fire dancer. Damonfeuer.

I love how you immediately didn't trust Dr. Wells. I didn't either, some people just have that vibe that they're up to something and he's no exception. Also, I don't know if you recognize the actor who plays Eddie Thawne (Rick Cosnett), but he played Julian, that sketchy employee who was messing with Norm's wife in the three-episode cruise arc of 9-1-1 at the beginning of season 7. He's also Hugh Grant's cousin.

Okay. I've been waiting for this one. EXCITING!!!

That second-to-last scene with Barry and his dad (Dawson's dad on Dawson's Creek, btw) is so good! I'd forgotten how good this pilot was since I haven't seen it since it aired

Ilsuk Yang

I knew I'd seen him in something before 911, I just couldn't remember which show/movie lol

BtsOT79798

She and Cisco were also in an episode of arrow before the flash aired

BtsOT79798

What comment? The mention of supergirl? It’s the tv show title?

Bryan Ramirez

This is one of my favorite shows and you are my favorite reactor. I’m so excited!

Amber Lee

Yeah I love him as the flash!! This Is a good show, the only thing is u have to pay attention and remember what u saw cause it can get confusing sometimes.

I'm really excited to see your Arrowverse journey continue! The first two seasons of Flash really are some of the best comic book usage in TV or movies. And if you feel like the quality fluctuates during this 10 year run, there is a reason! They rotated the creative team frequently, so the writers for the first two seasons of Arrow moved to Flash for its first two seasons, then I believe they moved onto Legends of Tomorrow for a little bit. It's still fun though!

Melanin Ky

Oh hell yes!! You're never getting rid of me 🥹😂

Marvin Prein

Can you remove this comment BtsOT, as it is a spoiler

ingrid vedeld

Yaaay. So ready for this!

Michael Mitchell

Maaaan can you imagine how much you'd be able to do if you had The Flash's speed? I could skip every line in a store, I could avoid traffic altogether, I could sleep in late and STILL be at work early 😂😮‍💨

Lindsey

So glad you are watching this! Grant is such a great actor!!

Domo

Been waiting for this so long! Great first episode can’t wait for more.

Zach Zbinden

I went to watch him in glee because of the flash lol

Zach Zbinden

Hell ya I'm excited for this.

grilledsaltine

my favorite show of all time, so excited to see your reactions!

BtsOT79798

It’s the same for super girl I started bc of the actress for super girl (who also stared in glee) and stayed for the plot and changing versatility of the show!

BtsOT79798

I started this show for grant gustin ( bc of glee) then stayed for the acting and versatility of the show overall!

Welcome to The Flash! Super excited that you're starting this! First, you asked at the end, this pilot aired October 2014. That date on the news at the end was just under 10 years into the future. I'm also glad you acknowledged the absolutely phenomenal score, Blake Neely did an incredible job. He's responsible for the score for all of the Arrowverse shows (653 songs, 39 hours according to Spotify)! To help give you a jump learning the new cast, here's a brief rundown of everyone we met: - Obviously, Barry Allen aka The Flash. Most of his backstory was already known from Arrow, this episode we learn that he got super-speed as a result of the explosion (which includes superhuman healing speeds) STAR Labs people: - CEO Dr. Harrison Wells, "the shady guy". He claims to have been seriously injured & wheelchair-bound as a result of the particle accelerator explosion, but we know from the pre-credits scene this isn't true. He also has a news headline in the braille room, "Flash missing, vanishes in crisis" dated 2024. - Dr. Caitlyn Snow, a biochemist whose fiancée was killed in the particle accelerator explosion. She was responsible for caring for Barry during his coma. - Cisco Ramon, the "gadget guy". He made the Flash suit. - Detective Joe West; Iris's father, involved in Barry's father's case. - Detective Eddie Thawne, "Detective Pretty Boy". Dating Iris since the explosion - Iris West, dating Eddie, currently working at coffee shop "Jitters" And some miscellaneous info / trivia: - There's a little retcon / oopsie this episode - in the Arrow part, Felicity was on a call with Barry moments before the accelerator explosion, in this episode that phone call was not present. - BTS Trivia, the building used for the exterior shots of Central City PD is actually Vancouver's City Hall, while the exterior of STAR Labs is BC Place, our stadium. Amusingly, they also use BC Place in several episodes as an actual stadium.

Ohhhhhh yeah! I can't tell you how long I've been waiting for this! I'm so excited, I love the first two seasons of The Flash and I can't wait to go on this journey with you!

m

Iris was also in greys too! It’s a right of passage atp😂

Kyra Sharp

Yaaaaaaaay!!!!!!!! I love Flash! Especially when it integrates with Arrow. Good times ahead. Barry is such a loveable character. He has so much heart, passion, and humility. He is good for my soul and makes me feel inspired and human.

Siobhan Linehan

I'm so glad you liked the pilot, it is really good and well done. I love that you didn't trust Dr Wells straight away lol. 😂 I agree that Iris is hot and I also agree that Grant is a fantastic actor. He never got the chance to show what he can do on Glee but on this show straight away you can see how talented he is. 😊 Can't wait to continue on the Arrowverse journey with you.

Kristina Fagan

In 1990 there was another TV series called the Flash and Barry's dad played the Flash

m

YAYY!!

Kristina Fagan

Caitlyn Snow was on Skyhigh Barry was on Glee

Edge

Iris was also in greys anatomy

Stone27

That pretty boy btw has been in a few episodes on 9-1-1. Remember the ship going down and he was one of the employees there. He was having an affair with Lola

Haley Commet

Yeah Caitlin is in lots of stuff, I think her and her sister look just alike. They were both in Greys Anatomy (not a spoiler as I believe you already seen that episode) I think Iris is pretty too.
