      Pancapeczka G They finaly reminded themselfes how to make good series, armageddon was good, deathstorm arc and last 4 episodes was Perfect, they showed that 2 villains can be good. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/24/23 Full Review American M This is way better from season 6 and season 7, the Armageddon story line in the beginning is just the best, Barry thinking he is losing his mind but really it's the Reverse Flash who was doing it and then RF disappearing from time so they gotta take his speed and then stop the very mad alien and of course, get those very nice shiny boots. Then after that you get a fire that's cold but hot and feeds off fear, tricks Caitlin, the "HUGE SPOILER" FROST DIES even though you think she was gunna live, nope, she dies and the next episode is very sweet, then getting over frost and giving her a nice burial, then after that it's heart broken Caitlin trying to remake frost which then leads to the saddest ending with Barry destroying everything in her room and everything she worked on and then Caitlin with the help of chill blame becomes something else, season 9 coming soon. Also highly recommend this season to anyone who wants to watch it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/27/23 Full Review Luchidavi Best tv series of all time Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/03/23 Full Review Superhero F Another terrible one. The first few episodes the flash was fighting a fire. Yes, A FIRE…… Not entertaining at all. The lightsaber scene carried the season😂 Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 08/14/23 Full Review Michelle Horrible, what happened to this show? The only part that didn't make me want to scratch my eyes out were the storylines with Bart and Nora. Where is The Flash, where is Iris West Allen, and where is Joe. OMG and why is Cecile being pushed in to the front and I hate the new boring team members. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/19/23 Full Review Angel M The CGI was awful, the story was sub-par. It isn't as bad as season 7 and 9 however, that is why it's score is higher than both in my eyes. By the end, it was very goofy but it was heart-warming. The costumes for reverse flash are awful as well, the make Thawne look fat and its pretty bad. Overall, a sub-par season for a very sub-par show.

      Jeff Beck The Blu Spot The show's pattern may be overly-familiar at this point, but even in its eighth year, it still provides a solid amount of entertainment as it prepares to deliver what is sure to be an epic final season. Rated: 3.5/5 Oct 18, 2022 Full Review Charles E. Henning Tell-Tale TV There is just enough excitement to get us to the next episode without making things too overly convoluted. Hopefully, it stays that way. Rated: 3.5/5 Nov 18, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews
