Emotional Mid-Season Finale Adds Some New Twists To The Flash

And the wait beings. After last night's mid-season finale of The Flash, the next new episode won't be until January 19th, two days before the premiere of DC's Legends of Tomorrow. It will be interesting to have three nights of television set in the same universe (not counting Law & Order, C.S.I. or the Chicago series… okay, not as impressive when you look at it).

Interestingly, after an episode without a whole lot of surprises… we meet you know who for the first time and we find out why that other guy is doing what he's doing… It didn't really feel like a finale. It was on the other hand very emotional and both Jesse L Martin and Shantel VanSanten brought their A game.

And now the spoiler section

It may not have had a huge cliffhanger, but we got some game changing moments with the introduction of Wally West (Keiynan Lonsdale) and Zoom (Tony Todd) finale having his motives revealed. He's not sending the villains through to kill the Flash, he's trying to make him more powerful so when he does take Barry's speed he'll get as much as possible. And now Harrison Wells (Tom Cavanagh) is supposedly helping him. But making the Flash faster was Wells' original plan… and just how many times can we have a betrayal from a character that looks like Wells?

So we have six weeks to wait, but the trailer for the next episode, Potential Energy, looks pretty good… except for Patty. Yeah, looks like it might be a bad day for Patty.
