Man I thouroughly enjoyed that. Definitely liked it more than the arrow pilot which is saying a lot.

Spoilers:



























I got the feeling that maybe Barry killed his own mom by going back in time. Am I the only one?

Dude, if they actually use Grodd, and can pull him off on tv, I'll flip freaking out.

For real. I was impressed with the effects so I'm a lot more comfortable that CW can pull off a solid Grodd.

Not sure what was going on there either. I get the references in the future headlines but not sure who Wells is or what his deal is.

I'm not saying squat about that. Be careful of comic talk when it comes to that because her killer appears to be a huge plot point that you probably want to stay in the dark on.

Yeah. Little late now. I don't mind spoilers though. Now I know to look out for things I would have no idea to key on otherwise.

I'm wondering if the word "crisis" in the headline is a reference to one of (if not all) the the Crisis series in the comics. But it definitely shows that Wells has access to the future. I'm wondering if he is really someone else from the comics.

The effects were definitely impressive considering we are talking about a tv show. His speed is very well done.

When Barry made his guest appearance on the Arrow, I was kind of hesitant about his ability to carry his own show. But after seeing the pilot, I my hesitation has been put to rest. Gustin did a great job in the pilot. It looks like he will put his own stamp on the Barry Allen character just like Amell has put his own stamp on Oliver Queen.

It was a very impressive pilot, and the show has huge potential. I can't wait for the season to start.

I think now that "spoilers" has been added to the thread title, relinquishes us from having to do the spoilers thing in posts.

But just in case, spoilers

I doubt it since they've already shown the person who is Prof. Zoom in the comics...Eddie Thawne. But I guess they could throw the comic fans a curve ball and change Zoom's identity on this show.

When Barry first walks through star labs after he got his powers, they pass a cage that had the door broken open, and a sign that said "Grodd".

Yea but in the comics Prof. Zoom is from the future, Wells (who I'm guessing is Eobard Thawne) could just be a descendent of Eddie Thawne. Also concerning Eddie Thawne remember this is from the same guys that produce Arrow, they like to throw curve balls, remember in Arrow when everyone thought Tommy would become the Dark Archer?
