Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
90s Barry is out there in the multiverse somewhere, so there's still hope.
So when the season 3 villain kills Earth-3 Jay in front of Barry, we'll finally get 90s Barry Allen for season 4

There's a new JLA book coming. They're revealing the lineup piecemeal, but so far it includes The Ray, Vixen, The Atom (Ryan Choi) and , most importantly to this thread, a reformed Killer Frost.
Given the comics' interest in the character, I wonder how much of that will spill over into the TV series. Could we be seeing a renewed interest in Caitlin's villainous doppleganger? or even the actual Caitlin getting her powers?

The problem was always that giving Caitlin powers means writing her out of the team, giving her less time to appear. They are stuck trying to fix that.

Honestly, I'd just keep Caitlin and Killer Frost as separate entities, perhaps strike up a rapport.
The problem is there's nothing for Caitlin to do most of the time. The biology of a villain is like 1% of an episode tops and Wells can do that better than she can. Worse, they keep throwing her in relationships because they don't have a plan.

Which is why I thought them killing her off was dumb. Though, can always be a different Earth

The show leans so hard on Cisco and Wells for science mumbo jumbo exposition and Caitlin gets the scraps. Cisco also has the ongoing name gag, makes all the gadgets, and does all the pop culture references. They should give Caitlin her own thing. Like maybe she starts treating metahumans that don't want powers or something.

Would be neat if we got the original Wells back... or rather the original timeline Flash came from. Wouldn't that be crazy?
This is about as close to JWS playing old Barry as we'all get. It's fine, he's a very similar character without having to deal with mixing continuities.
We are meeting Caitlin's mother this year.
And Killer Frost is back in some form in episode 7.

There's no way that could go wrong. Nope, I don't detect any way this could turn out to be a bad decision.

Mama Smoak is MVP

I like Mama Smoak too. She's a good age appropriate love interest for Papa Lance. She's a good anchor character for Felicity too. She knows she isn't as smart but that doesn't mean she doesn't have reasonable advice.

Caitlin's mother isn't a blonde bimbo. At least I hope she isn't

I'll not have you tainting the honor of Mama Smoak.

She's good in small doses, as a comic relief character. But late last season her "nobody's allowed to have any secrets ever, for any reason" plotline edged into Lana Lang territory.

Zero play nice
Really excited for this season. Interested to see what comes out of Flashpoint. I just like the idea of things changing up for a show and this seems to be a change that will bring about some neat stuff.
Man bro, it's crazy how often I disagree with your opinions.

Mama Smoak is no MVP but she's not an anchor either. Fun character fo sho.

Besides that misstep in Late S4, she really is Felicity's Anchor

Yeah, Letscher is a good Reverse Flash. Cavanagh can't be replaced but they're both good at their depiction's of Reverse Flash.

Hoping this season will be better than the lackluster S2. S1 was awesomesauce though.
Going to ask what has probably been asked a million times, but since this is a new thread I suppose we might as well use it as a primer for other new people joining in as well:
OG Timeline: Barry was supposed to get struck by lightning later on in life.
Canon Timeline: Reverse Flash intervened and changed the past causing Barry to receive his Flash powers earlier and his mother to die.
New timeline: Barry stops Reverse Flash from killing his mom and all the other residual effects.
Shouldn't the Flashpoint timeline be the original timeline then?

The take they seem to have is Barry would never be the Flash in this current timeline. That's just guessing on my part though.

They gotta quit releasing pics of costumed Barry next to anyone else.
