The Flash has been one of my favourite shows since it started. I used to love each episode, laughing, sometimes crying, being surprised with the plot twists... but this season that hasn't happened that often.
Barry is my favourite character, and I haven't liked the decisions he has been taken lately. Plus, I've never liked West-Allen, so all the scenes with Iris are just boring. I don't care about what happens to her tbh. I don't like sad Barry, but ugh. I will always be team Patty. Or Linda. But not West-Allen. (I hope nobody sees this a racist thing because Iris is black. If she was played by a white girl, I wouldn't like her either. It is the character, not the actress).
The bad guy of the season... meh. I found his origen a bit difficult to understand at first, probably because English isn't my first language, so I had to read an explanation 馃槀 But still... it wasn't like Eobard or Jay/Zolomon last season.
The season finale... bland as well. On the previous episode, we saw Savitar kill Iris. But we all knew that she wasn't dead. They couldn't kill her. Some people even guessed what have happened a week before the season finale: H.R. used his thingy from his hearth to change himself into Iris and trick Savitar, sacrificing himself. Now I wonder which Harrison Wells we'll have next season. I really liked H.R. And then... Barry destroys Savitar's suit, Iris kills him, Caitlin isn't Killer Frost anymore but the old Caitlin either (everybody joked about she being the new Daenerys 馃槀), and Barry has to go and stay on the Speed Force to keep the balance on the world. Ok. Shocking? No. Cliffhanger? No. We all know that on the first episode on season 4 he'll be back.
But, not everything hasn't been bad. I really like Julian, Tom Felton has been an amazing addition and I hope we see him next season. All the little quotes that are related to other shows or movies, like Harry Potter, have been on point. And so have the episodes with characters from other shows, like 3x22 with Snart (I am watching the new season of Prison Break, and I love seeing Wentworth playing such different characters) and, of course, the crossovers. As has happened since they started, they are among my favourite episodes.
And speaking of crossovers, we move to Supergirl.
When I read that the CW have bought it, I was really happy, because they treat their shows better, and usually do good things. But it has been such a boring season! I've watched most episodes while doing other things. Not even Chris Wood and his face have been capable of making me pay attention. All the plots were so boring!
I like Kara as a character. During the crossovers I've loved her. When she is with Barry I am smiling all the time, Grant and Melissa have an amazing chemistry on screen. But when she is on her show I get bored. She and Mon-El are cute together, but when you've seen Chris on The Vampire Diaries, where he was the bad guy and simply amazing, Mon-El ends up being boring and too plain. And the rest of the characters... boring as well (especially James. Can't he go back to Metropolis? Please?).
The only character besides Kara that I like, is Cat Grant. She was the best thing on the season finale, and if she is staying for season 3, I might give it a chance. Because right now, I am not watching it. I watch a lot of tv shows already, and I prefer watching things that I actually like. I quit Arrow last year, and apparently this season was really good, so maybe the same happens to Supergirl 馃槀

And another thing for next season dear writers... If you are doing more crossovers, use the Supergirl episodes as part of them. But truly, not like you did this year. Because you say that the crossover starts on Supergirl episode, and only the last 5 seconds of it are about it. You did with the crossover with Flash, Arrow and the Legends, and then with the musical episode with Flash. And that is cheating and lying! 馃槖
