TV Review: The Flash Season 3 Episode 1 "Flashpoint" [Emz]

So here we are with another TV series!

I have watched Season 1 and 2 of The Flash but it is easier to start with Season 3.

This episode first aired on the 11th October 2016 on The CW.

Here is the synopsis:

Barry is living his dream life – his parents are alive, he's asked Iris West on a date and he can finally be a normal guy as Central City has another speedster, Kid Flash, running around saving the city. When Barry starts forgetting parts of his old life, the Reverse-Flash taunts his nemesis and tells him that there will be serious repercussions for Barry and the ones he loves if he continues to live in this alternate universe. In addition to losing his memories, his powers will also start to fade. When disaster strikes, Barry must decide if he wants to continue to live in this world as Barry Allen or return to his universe as The Flash.

Review:

So at the end of Season 2, Barry loses his father and also defeats Zoom. He goes back in time and stops his mother from being killed. He ends up trying to help stop anther speedster (The Rival) and trying to meet people that he knew in his previous timeline.

In the process he starts to lose his memories so he enlists the Reverse Flash to help put the timeline back to the way it was before. He is informed after he is put back to the point where he left that things will be different.

The first sign that we see of this is Iris and her father are not talking to each other.

I enjoyed this episode, but still not sure if the whole Flashpoint storyline was worth it as it caused so many changes to the characters family and friendships.

Thats all for now.

Till next time
