REVIEW: The Flash – Season 6, Episode 14 “Death of the Speed Force”
The Flash took a week-long break after the excellent “Grodd Friended Me,” and returns with “Death of the Speed Force,” a muddled, middling effort that serves mostly to make clear just how many balls this season has in the air. Some familiar faces return, as does a familiar superhero trope th...
Read MoreREVIEW: The Flash – Season 6, Episode 13 “Grodd Friended Me”
“Grodd Friended Me” is a gratifying return to form for The Flash, good enough to banish the memory of the last two weeks’ duds and reinvigorate a flailing season. It gets back to the moral dilemmas that made the show so fascinating from its earliest days, brings back a great villain (as oppose...

The Flash jumped the gun with the Ramsey Rosso storyline over the past few episodes, but “The Last Temptation of Barry Allen, Part 1” performs some much-needed repairs on season 6’s main arc. It merges the themes of both Ramsey and the Crisis, and it makes Barry even more human in the face of ...
