REVIEW: The Flash – Season 8, Episode 20 “Negative, Part 2”
AlexGherzo | Jun 30, 2022 | 0
“Negative, Part 2” brings another season of The Flash to a close, and the good news is that it’s much better than “Negative, Part 1,” last week’s set-up first half. It explains some of the seemingly nonsensical plot points in that episode, although a couple of them still don’t quite ho...

“Waiting for Superman” is the perfect kind of finale, for a TV season or any other story. It marries big, apocalyptic spectacle with the personal stories that have run through the past fourteen episodes. And as a microcosm of the show, it demonstrates what Superman means to the world and the ind...

“The Man in the Yellow Tie” is the episode where The Flash’s streamlined season finally catches up with it – much like a certain yellow-garbed supervillain always does with Barry Allen. The central plot is strong and thematically rich, but it’s shoved aside by subplots that have no bearing...

“Keep it Dark” is another stand-aloneish episode, where it’s mostly a self-contained story, but some of the plot points will likely return in the near future. (We’ll call that the Buffy Special.) Barry’s storyline is the subplot, while the main action focuses on Allegra and Chester. It isn...
