For some reason, this week the writer's chose to play his condition for laughs (!), which is shocking to say the least.
Harry's intelligence continues to deteriorate, to the point where he's a stumbling moron who can't stop tripping over every chair he sees. Whew! That's a lot of area to cover in just forty two minutes! They need to stop the Enlightenment, defeat DeVoe, restore Harry's intelligence, bring back Ralph, bring back Killer Frost, and birth Joe and Cecile's kid. In fact with just one episode left, I'm wondering how the hell they're going to wrap up all this season's numerous storylines. I still believe he'll return, but I'm starting to get a bit worried! Now I'm not so sure! There's only one episode left in the season, and he's still not back. For example, I wasn't too awfully upset when Ralph "died," as I knew he'd eventually be resurrected somehow. So far this season isn't heading in quite the direction I expected, which I guess is a good thing. With fewer episodes to fill, the pace would be faster, there'd be no stalling and far less boredom!Īnyway, back to this episode. Think how much better it would be if The Flash adopted Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s "story pod" concept, and had two or three shorter story arcs per season.
Twenty three episodes is just way too long to drag out a single plotline, and inevitably leads to padding. In fact last week's dreary Harry And The Harrisons only goes to prove that the season long story arc just plain doesn't work. Overall Think Fast was much better than last week's wheel-spinning, time wasting exercise. This week on The Flash, we get an episode of actual consequence, in which things happen and the plot is actually advanced.
