It's more that she looks 20 years younger than she is. The actor who plays J'onn looks like the early 50s he is.

Man, the Iris-haters are out in force in regards to that one. I honestly don't understand how worked up they are about her in general. I mean, I know why but I don't UNDERSTAND.

This episode was super fun.

Because the Flash is an awesome show made by hardworking people who are also attractive.

I think it's because while the other episodes can center on other characters, nobody really forces the camera like Barry does so the ensemble cast gets a chance.

I don't understand how Cecile didn't seem to register the fact that some people might find mind-reading abilities invasive, especially her spouse. I feel like most people would be on pins and needles the entire time with someone like that. I mean if for one brief moment Joe sees an attractive woman on TV and thinks a dirty thought for one second he's done for.

Probably a combination of the fact that A) Gustin's character on Glee was gay, and B) Ezra Miller (the guy who plays the Flash in the movies) is gay

The Iris hate really baffles me. What has she done wrong? I can't think of the last time there was any real relationship drama BS or "hiding secrets" melodrama crap between them. For the last year or so they've just kind of been together and that's that and almost all of the conflict has been external threats. And I'm pretty sure the last few times its happened its been Barry's fault. Their relationship and Iris herself have been pretty solid in recent seasons especially if you compare them to the disaster that is Olicity.

White male nerds on the internet get upset when cool black women get to do the same awesome poo poo everyone else can in their comic book safe spaces :ssh:

Also a lot of people just can't wrap their heads around the fact that Iris has developed significantly as a character since Season 1, back when she was shittily written and actually somewhat legitimately dislikeable. Hell, I used to hate her too for a while but she's now my straight up favorite character on the show.

I guess I can understand that, but even in season 1/2 most of the "drama" came from the fact that Barry and Joe decided to hide the fact that Barry was the Flash from her for basically no reason. There was no legitimate reason that I can remember not to just loop her in about it immediately. As soon as she found out the truth, joined the team, and got together with Barry she has not contributed to any significant melodrama that I can remember whatsoever. I know those people are racist/sexist internet trolls so I guess there's no accounting for that. But, seriously, how can they not have even a little bit of sympathy for a woman whose marriage ceremony was interrupted and ruined by the catastrophe that is Olicity?

If you're going to have such a capacity for ignorant sexist hatred, at least direct it towards the female character who is legitimately terribly written, in a toxic relationship, and is basically emotionally abusive to her PTSD-ridden husband and not the female who has been completely kind and normal and supportive.

My guess is Cecile will read the mind of Future Flash Kid and either

B) Keep it to herself to not pollute the time line
C is for Comedy Option) Somehow revive thawne

Always searching for North.
I was kind of disappointed that nobody on Team Flash seemed to even consider Cecile's power being related to DeVoe's current plan or him messing with them. (The first thing I thought of was that he was putting the thoughts in her head somehow.) You've got a guy who's worked out some big complicated plan, then took over a telepath's body, and suddenly one of your group can read minds? They should at least have raised it as a possibility.

So part of DeVoe's plan involved Joe getting Cecile pregnant? That seems very outlandish.

is anyone else expecting Killer Frost to be all, "gently caress y'all, I'm out" at some point. Like, with Cisco and Harry just pulling her out whenever they want I feel like it's building up to something but it also might not be anything at all.

I would say yes of course but with these writers it’s probably just the norm now. There’s only so many times she can be evil before you roll your eyes so far into your head they pop out of your rear end. Gives her something to do instead of falling in love with a guy who dies every season.
