REVIEW: The Flash – Season 9, Episode 9, “It’s My Party and I’ll Die if I Want To”
Never let it be said that Barry Allen can’t pull off a miracle. “It’s My Party and I’ll Die if I Want To” (the URL for this review is gonna be huge) is not only a return to form after two-thirds of a disappointing final season; it’s a sensational episode, packed with character developmen...

Maybe The Flash needed a week to get the suck out of its system (give or take the odd Chester scene) because “Lockdown” is a quick return to form. It’s a focused, thematically connected, character-driven episode that manages to be both fun and legitimately funny. And Danielle Panabaker finally...
