The Flash is one of my favorite superhero shows. The story is great, the suspense is heart-stopping, the characters are eye-candy and moreover the script is brilliant. This TV show has about three seasons yet. And more are to come (don’t worry people). Each season has dtwenty three episodes and those of you who don’t know about this season, let me tell you about it, but stay calm, I won’t give any spoilers.
The Flash Season 1, 2 and 3 Recap (Spoiler Free):
First Season:
In the first season, the main character, Barry Allen’s mother is murdered. He then becomes a brilliant crime scene investigator. A particle accelerator malfunctions and the city center is filled with radiation. Barry is struck by lightning. Awakening after a coma, he discovers he can move at superhuman speeds. Barry vows to use his gifts to protect Central City and he becomes The Flash. He also pursues his mother’s murderer.
Second Season:
In the second season, the Flash is recognized as Central City’s hero. But some event brings a new threat from a parallel universe: Zoom, a demonic speedster who seeks to eliminate all other speedsters throughout the multiverse. Zoom kills Barry’s father and Barry travels back in time to save his mother’s life.
Third Season:
In the third season, Barry’s altering the past results in “The Flashpoint”. Though he is able to restore the timeline, he creates new threats, like Savitar. The characters Wally and Caitlin Snow begin to manifest meta-human abilities; Wally suits up as the Kid Flash, while Caitlin is forced to suppress her ice-powers to prevent becoming Killer Frost. Barry accidentally travels to the future and sees someone dear to him get killed by Savitar, he is desperate to change the future to prevent that from happening. After defeating Savitar, Barry takes his place in the Speed Force.
The Flash Season 4 Release Date:
So, there you go. I hope that’s enough to spark up your interest in this TV show. Moreover, season 4 is coming up pretty soon, and it is said to be released on October 10. So get ready for another season of The Flash. Here’s the trailer for the next upcoming season. Barry’s back but something’s not right. Take a look.
The Flash Season 4 Details and Story:
So a little about the upcoming season:
- There is a new character, The Hazard, who is described as “perpetually down-on her luck and is convinced her life is cursed — until a freak accident changes everything. With the universe on her side, she poses a threat to both Team Flash and Central City.”
- The entry of The Elongated Man takes place. DC Described him (officially) as “one of the Flash’s most iconic allies, Ralph Dibny—a.k.a. The Elongated Man—is a fast-talking private investigator with investigative skills that rival those of Batman. Upon discovering he has the power to stretch his body to any shape or form; Dibny uses his new abilities to help Team Flash solve one of Central City’s greatest mysteries.” Doesn’t that sound just so relieving for Team Flash?
- Here’s a secret that might keep you wanting for more; there’s going to be a mini-crossover with Arrow in the 4th season!
- The Thinker is a meta-human who battles The Flash throughout the season. He is known as the “fastest mind alive” and he plans to fix what he believes is wrong with humanity, at least according to him. The Thinker has help from The Mechanic. I’m not going to go into detail because then that would spoil the mystery. The Thinker is the new villain in this season.
Flash Season 4 Synopsis:
Here’s the official synopsis on the story of season 4:
Running up against an evil time remnant version of yourself is something no one should ever have to do, but that’s exactly what faced Barry Allen (aka The Flash) as he fought to save the life of fiancée Iris West from the God of Speed known as Savitar. Barry’s victory was short-lived, however, as an unbalanced Speed Force began to wreak havoc on Central City, forcing Barry to sacrifice himself for the greater good. With The Fastest Man Alive now trapped inside an extra-dimensional energy, and unknown dangers lurking in the shadows, it will be up to Team Flash to free Barry from his own personal Hell.
Excited about The Flash?
Well, I think I have a pretty jam-packed season to look forward to. I’m sure you guys would be as impatient for this one as I am because life is too short to not be excited for anything. And as Barry would say,
“Life doesn’t give us purpose, we give life purpose”.
