Grant Gustin’s The Flash ran for nine seasons before the creators decided to end the show for good. While the series is considered to be one of the best of its kind, fans couldn’t help but notice how some character lines often felt very cheesy. When it was put to discussion what the most annoying line was, fans could easily come to an agreement.

The show was presented in a lighter, whimsical tone that would often come across as overly simplistic and almost silly. However, the comedic lines in the show weren’t the most annoying for fans. It was often the serious moments that produced the worst dialogue.

The Flash arrived on the CW as an antidote to the heavy, bleak world of Arrow. Our Scarlet Speedster was going to be a bright, upbeat superhero series and it was—at first. With each successive season, it grew bleaker and more chaotic as an overstuffed cast all demanded screentime and the writing staff never seemed to grasp that there were other villains than those connected to the Speed Force.

The 2022-23 television season brought us The Flash’s ninth and final season, providing a chance to give closure to the core characters. Tomorrow, Warner Home Entertainment releases The Flash: The Complete Ninth and Final Season.

Across the truncated season, everyone had a moment to shine, get their due, take a bow and move aside so the Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) and Nora West Allen (Candice Patton) center got to have the last word as they finally welcomed Nora to the preset.

Take a look at the final season of TV's "The Flash", based on the DC Comics superhero, now airing on The CW:

“…after defeating the ‘Reverse Flash’ once and for all, the ninth season of The Flash picks up one week later following their epic battle, and ‘Barry Allen’ (Grant Gustin) and ‘Iris West-Allen’ (Candice Patton) are reconnecting and growing closer than ever before.

“But when a deadly group of ‘Rogues’ descend on ‘Central City’ led by a powerful new threat, ‘The Flash’ and his team - ‘Caitlin Snow’ (Danielle Panabaker), meta-empath ‘Cecile Horton’ (Danielle Nicolet), the light-powered meta ‘Allegra Garcia’ (Kayla Compton), brilliant tech-nerd ‘Chester P. Runk’ (Brandon McKnight), and reformed cryogenics thief ‘Mark Blaine’ (Jon Cor) - must once again defy impossible odds to save the day.

“But as The Rogues are defeated, a deadly new adversary rises to challenge Barry Allen's heroic legacy.

TV show description:      

A spin-off of Arrow, this action series revolves around a young man who, after a freak accident, ends up with the ability to run at super speed. He decides to use his abilities to protect the citizens of his hometown, Central City.

The Flash season 9 finale had the nearly impossible task of wrapping up the series while also doing justice to a long-awaited villain and honoring beloved characters. But Barry Allen is all about believing in the impossible, and the actors' sincerity ultimately helps the story succeed. The truncated final season stumbled after a strong start due to its reliance on interludes rather than a cohesive series arc, but Grant Gustin's last run as Barry Allen still manages to be a sweet homage to the things and people that made the CW show so iconic in the first place.

“A New World, Part Four,” which was written by showrunner Eric Wallace and Sam Chalsen and directed by Vanessa Parise, opens with Barry's unforgettable voiceover and drops viewers back into what purports to be the team's biggest battle yet. Though the finale also serves as the end of the Arrowverse as a whole,...

The Flash will end its nine-season run on The CW on Wednesday night, and writing the superhero series finale was a big task for showrunner Eric Wallace. Before writing the final episode, he sat down and watched several series finales from other shows and took some inspiration from three of them – Lost, Angel, and The Office.

Starring Grant Gustin (above), Candice Patton, Danielle Panabaker, Danielle Nicolet, Kayla Compton, Brandon McKnight, and Jon Cor, the series follows the fastest man alive and his team of superheroes as they key the planet safe from metahumans who use their powers to hurt others.

The Flash is currently in the midst of its ninth and final season, but the series finale is quickly approaching. While speaking with TVLine, The Flash star Grant Gustin answered fan questions, including if he was happy with where Barry Allen ends up at the end of the series.

Grant Gustin replied that he was, but shared that he always imagined the series ending with Barry’s death. “When I thought about [The Flash] ending, there was a theory out there that Barry would sacrifice himself to keep the Speed Force alive and become the lightning bolt that inevitably struck him [in the pilot] and create this full circle moment, which I thought was really cool,” Gustin said. “I kinda always wanted him to die a hero’s death in a way, and Eric [Wallace] was very opposed to the idea, and we really wanted to see a happy ending for Barry and Iris.

What a tumultuous time it is to be a fan of DC TV and movies. Aside from the fact that the Dceu was a mass of chaotic energy almost from the word go, there’s also been the ongoing confusion about the multiversal aspects: the multiple Batmen and Jokers, the fact that the TV shows have nothing to do with the movies, the fact that entire movies simply ceased to exist and were banished to limbo after they had already wrapped, never to be seen by mortal eyes.

And then there have been the rumors (so many rumors), the false starts, and the closing of longstanding movie and TV legacies as new DC Studios heads James Gunn and Peter Safran begin to lay out their own new vision for their Dcu of the future.

Despite all of that, 2023 is a veritable bounty of riches for fans of DC movies and TV shows.
