Tom Cavanagh steps up to plate & hits a home run on his directorial debut on last night's Flash. When this show works, it works really well & we were due a strong, satisfying, great episode. This really felt like a great comic-book to me. Costume in last night's episode was very cool. Might have been the best episode of this season.



*side ? - So who do you guys think Savitar is? I was going with Wells.

And cannot remember which episode where it was stated that Savitar was the first speedster. Savitar also repsonded to Barry's question as to who is he with "I am the Future, Flash" or maybe he said "I am the Future Flash". I think Savitar is a future Barry Allen. But if he is Barry, I don't understand his motivations. Unless he's just crazy or jaded. Why would a future Barry kill Iris?

Why does any bad guy kill a superhero's love? Because it pleases him to make the hero feel like crap. Revenge is a dish best served over a broken heart. I wouldn't overthink it. Savitar may even be a Flashpoint Eddie.

After seeing this week's episode I'm pretty sure Savitar is post-flashpoint Hunter Zolomon. It would make sense with Caitlin's reaction when he opens the suit and it would also give him the motivation to hurt Flash by killing Iris.

I think in order for Barry to Stop Savitar he's going to have to gather all the speedsters; Barry, Wally, Jesse and Jay in one huge fight...or at least I'm hoping.

Doubt that CW would go back & use last season's main bad guy. But, it would explain Dr. Snow's quick alignment. I'm intrigued by her/Killer Frost's immediate alliance upon his reveal to her. Savitar has to be somebody she knows very well. What about an old Cisco Ramon? He's know all of Berry's secrets & how best to hurt him possibly motivated by the death of his brother which, in the future, he'd have had decades to stew on. He could also open gateways & build suit. (just thought about this & it's a complete guess, I've heard nothing).

Iris may go down as one of the most useless characters on superhero TV. Other than serving as the typical helpless female in need of constant saving because she is too dumb to stay out of trouble, she adds nothing to the show. The actress must be going out of her mind having nothing to do save to say things like, "Be careful, Barry!" or "It's too dangerous, Wally!"

I'm surprised they haven't turned her into a speedster yet...
