REVIEW: The Flash – Season 9, Episode 8, “Partners in Time”
“Partners in Time” is yet another filler episode, but at least it’s a decent one that’s grounded in character. It also revolves around Barry and Iris for a change, which is good because I’ve grown sick of the supporting cast and their boring nonsense. They’re here, of course; God forbid ...
