The Flash, Season 2
(2015-2016)
The Flash suffers a grandiloquent second series let-down. “My name is Barry Allen and I am the fastest man alive,” proclaim the opening credits. “Yes,” mutters the frustrated viewer, “just not between the ears.” Jesse L. Martin is once again the standout.
The Flash, Season 1 (2014)
Although initially comical in all senses, The Flash quickly develops into a top-notch superhero programme: action-packed, dramatic and divertingly — not annoyingly — larger than life. The effects mostly work, and Tom Cavanagh and Jesse L. Martin bring a maturity to the support cast.
