THE FLASH - Welcome To Earth-2 Vibes

Welcome to Earth 2 amigos. Now, I know my excitement for this week’s episode of The Flash is justified because I really enjoyed the episode. It was great. Like episode Unchained of Arrow, it had quite a number of things going on but unlike Unchained, it didn’t seem all too much and loose. It was an enjoyable chain of events. Phew! There's so much to talk about this week. Brief recap: Cisco, Harry and Barry journeyed to Earth 2 through the last opened portal in Star Labs leaving Jay, Caitlin, Joe and Iris back to hold the fort. The breach collapsed sort of as they left which means they’ll be stranded in Earth 2 forever if Jay doesn’t work to fix it ASAP. Earth 1 crew had to battle a villain without Barry and Earth 2 crew’s plan didn’t go quite as planned to fins zoom and save Jessie.

ARROW - Unchained

Episode synopsis: The team faced a daunting tech-savvy adversary known as The Calculator. Back in Nanda Parbat, Nyssa escapes and is on a mission. Arsenal, Roy Harper is back to Star City

Arrow season 4 episode 12 was unchained alright because it had a whole lot of things going on which almost seem like too much for one episode tbh but that doesn’t quite mean it wasn’t a good episode because it was great actually. I enjoyed it. So… in few bullets, here’s unchained:

THE FLASH – Fast Lane vibes

Woo-hoo! When I say ‘Earth 1!’, you say ‘Earth 2!’. ‘Earth 1!’ ‘Earth 2!’ ‘Earth 1!’ ‘Earth 2!’ I don’t even know why I’m getting all super excited, we’re not getting that tour until next week’s episode of the Flash titled “Welcome to Earth 2!”, I’m excited for it.

Back to this week, Fast Lane was a great episode. It wasn’t as thrilling as last week’s episode for me but it was good. The villain this week, Tar Pit (thanks to the cat who name the names, Cisco) was kind of not much of a threat. He wasn’t that much of a headache to stop. This episode basically was about togetherness, I personally title it “Stronger Bonds” (or maybe Family Ties, jk).

ARROW - A.W.O.L.

You know what was A.W.O.L. in last night's episode? Damien Darhk. He's being true to his promise and he's out of town at the moment, leave a message after the beep please *beep* well, no message.

The episode started with Lyla and Diggle having a lovely walk before Alan Chang rained on their parade (ARGUS business). I guess you can leave ARGUS but ARGUS will never leave you. There were a number of other Lyla/Diggle moments. The Diggle brothers were also shown in flashbacks back in Afghanistan were they first met Lieutenant Joyner, the leader of the Shadowspire team (like H.I.V.E. isn't enough to deal with).

THE FLASH - The Reverse Flash Returns Vibes

Highlights

• Barry had to deal with reverse flash
• The West family said their goodbyes to Mama West
• Patty left
• Cisco vibed on a large scale
• We catch a glance of Jay Garrick’s Earth 1 doppelganger
• And oh yeah… turns out this is actually the Reverse flash’s origin story

Basically, it pretty much explained lot of questions I had last week.

Whew! Some episode that was last night. Maybe it’s just me but there was lot of crazy mad scientist time travelling talk happening in episode 10 but before I get to the crazy, let’s talk other stuff, shall we?

ARROW - Blood Debts

Ah-ha! Told you all it wasn’t Felicity in that grave (See All I know is Felicity is not dying). Boo-yah! (Olicity fandom dance). So… some comeback episode that was last night from Arrow midseason premiere. Episode 10 was quite something. ALERT! Spoilers ahead. Arrow season 4 episode 10 in few lines:

THE FLASH - Potential Energy Vibes

It's exciting that The Flash is back on TV yesterday! How much the return have been anticipated. I know I was expectant and it sure did not fail to deliver. Yes, it still remains on the list for my top 3 TV show. (Note: This article contains little spoiler from last night's episode, if you are avoiding spoilers in every way, you probably shouldn't read this any further).
In episode "Potential Energy", Barry was up against a villain nicknamed Turtle who had the ability to make time slow for everybody around him (and yes, that includes Barry) except himself. Turtle was going to be a good study to help them figure out how to defeat Zoom (Cisco's idea).
To the point, issues I have to discuss from last night.
