the Flash Season 4 could have been better overall had they gotten rid of Iris. she's annoying as heck, bossed everyone around. "we are the Flash" my ass. if she insists she's as heroic she should have just launched herself at the satellites to get rid of them and herself in the process.

also, the show has become more and more unfocused as time went by. the name of the show is "The Flash" not "Team Flash." so when i watch it, i expect that the focus of the story should be the the Flash, whoever it is wearing the costume. but instead we got several subplots sewn together in a most messy fashion.

I'm actually more irritated that the Flash is coming out as being dumb and indecisive but he graduated magna cum laude with degree in Organic Chemistry...

notice that the Flash, Cisco, Caitlin and Harry all got dumbed down so that Iris can have a place as the "leader" who tells them what to do. that is why i hate her character so much.

Legends of Tomorrow is the best of them for me and is still entertaining.

The Expanse is saved! Show is coming to Amazon for season 4. =)

The news was announced by Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos himself at the National Space Society’s International Space Development Conference in Los Angeles, with cast members of The Expanse present. A session on The Expanse had taken place at the same conference earlier that day.

Last week, news hit that Bezos was a big fan of the series and that he was seeking a deal to save it. However, it was not a done deal at that time.

Masterchef Australia S10E17 has got to be one of the best MC episodes i have ever seen.

3 contestants had to individually go against 3 pro chefs for an immunity pin. but the contestants have Gordon Ramsay at their side as their mentor, and Gordon did that extremely well, guiding them nearly every step of the way.

Gordon also was up to his usual antics, from pressuring the pro chefs with his presence to rules lawyering one of the pros regarding her choice of ingredients and even throwing the ingredient in question away.

for several days on the MC Au FB page i've read mostly negative comments about Gordon Ramsay from people who obviously just knew him from memes. after that episode they all disappeared.

i think he needs to appear in MS Au again in future episodes and i hope he incorporates some of the stuff from MC Au to MC US.

Come to think of it. There wasn't any explanation either on how she got to be the one calling the shots other than in some alternate dimension she and Wally were a crime fighting team.

I'm still looking forward to the next season if they'll add more speedsters.

Whatever happened to the Linda Park character?

they are really just pushing their agenda down their viewers throats. it irritates me that in Season 1 we got some really emotional moments but the show lost them as the seasons went on and was replaced by boring relationship conflicts. meanwhile, Arrow became worse and worse because of Olicity and team drama.

IIRC there are 2 Linda Parks on Earth 1 because the Earth 2 Linda is stuck on Earth 1. no clue what's happened to her. i prefer her, Patty and even Felicity over Iris.

Yup , it's good.[emoji106]

Interesting story, interesting characters, plenty of sexy scenes but no gratuitous nudity, has violence but no gore.

There's an English dub but I prefer watching the original Spanish. Need to speed read the subtitles though 'cause they often speak so damn fast.

Verdict after finishing season 2: it's the mother of all heist stories. [emoji106]
