Awesome pilot episode! I tried my best to wait until October, but I just couldn't. Now I wish I would've waited, because it's going to be a loooong time until episode 2. I didn't think I would like Grant Gustin as Barry/ Flash... I was still undecided when he played him on Arrow. All because I really disliked him on Glee. I guess that makes him a good actor. The power to play a good character or bad character so well.

Loved It? Hated It? What did you think of the Flash Pilot? (Spoilers)

The Flash page on imdb says the pilot is called City Of Heroes. Is that true or is it just called Pilot like Smallville?Comment
-
Everything that I've seen across multiple sites all seem to suggest that is the actual name of the episode, though having seen the Pilot it seems like an odd name for it.Comment

I don't know if it is called "City of Heroes" but that was what the Season 2 premiere of Arrow was called.Comment

The guide on DirecTV says thats the pilot title as well. Yeah i thought that was the title for Arrow's 2nd season premiere.
Im thinking maybe its called that because its Barry and the team as the city's heroes. Not sure though.Comment

The CW press materials all say City of Heroes too, as I noted on FlashTVNews last week. Maybe that's gonna be it. If so I'll change the forum title. I need to ask someone for confirmation first. Having the same title as the Arrow premiere is confusing.Comment

I thought they would've just called the first ep either Pilot or The Flash.Comment

Just saw ad for the pilot and it said its gonna be an extended series premiere. Anyone know what that means? Could it be extended where the pilot is longer like Smallville's pilot was extended?
I cant imagine they're gonna make it too long or else it may make the season premiere of Supernatural shorter.Last edited by Austin 3:16; 09-24-2014, 07:46 PM.Comment

I was bouncing back and forth between an 8 and a 9 for this, but ended up voting 9.
As many people have pointed out, yes, the pilot did feel rushed, like they were trying to cover too much ground in 46 minutes. And the villain seemed to be defeated a bit too easily.
Those two points out of the way, I thoroughly enjoyed watching this pilot. There was the right balance between comedy and action and mystery that, if they stick to it, I think will make this show work for several seasons to come. I believe they did well with the special effects, casting, setting up future plot lines and establishing their characters. I believe the Flash pilot was far better than the one for Arrow (thankfully, that show has only grown better with time), and it even rivals the Smallville pilot.
I can't wait for this show to finally premiere in just another week (and a few days)!Comment
