Clancy Brown has been in a shitload of stuff. You might know his voice as Lex Luthor in the DCAU. But he has 230 acting credits on IMDb, so who knows where you might recognize him from :icon_lol:. Other famous roles include The Kurgan in Highlander, Captain Hadley (the guard) in The Shawshank Redemption, Sgt. Zim in Starship Troopers, and Mr. Krabs on SpongeBob SquarePants,

I'm still waiting for this show to get better than mediocre, but I think it has some good potential. However, I don't care for Grant Gustin as the Flash. He lacks charisma and looks like he's about to cry every other minute. There's too much convenient writing so far (Flash is fast when he needs to be and is slow when the plot calls for it). Barry pining for Iris reminds me of Screech and Lisa from SBTB. At least they have put some ruthless villains on there, and there's some potential with the wheelchair guy, especially if he turns out to be Zoom. Grodd and Firestorm also have good potential.

I enjoyed that episode. It was cool to see Clancy Brown as Eiling. But really the biggest talking point is the end scene:

Spoiler

Grodd!

Not a bad episode as far as Grood goes isn't he from Gorilla city?

Or the dickhead cop from Pet Sematary Two.

I swear, Dr. Not-Paraplegic's whole purpose is to kill random villains of the week and roll into the room pretending to have heard a conversation that only a hallway with perfect acoustics would have made possible.

Spoiler

I wonder if they plan to kill every other villain off or just the few cool (hot) ones. Though she wasn't a villain she still was pretty interesting character.

I'm so confused about the professor dude. Is he from the future? Or can he see in to it?

Spoiler

I was pretty sure that Thawne is Zoom but what if Hot Wheels himself is Zoom in this story? He doesn't exist in the comics (I think) does he?

 

[devante]

so they are gonna have zoom and reverse flash on the show it seems, wonder how that dynamic goes..maybe they put a spin on reverse flash and have him and flash clash over iris or fighting crime diff ways

Loving the show so far. Hope they do an great job on Grodd. He's one of my favorite DC villains.

 

[Anung Un Rama]

Is Grodd going to be in the next episode? I cannot wait to see them pull this off.

I doubt it. He's probably only being teased at for now and will be a late-season villain.

Wouldn't pulling an ape off get them in trouble?

Thanks, I'm back an ep or 2. I don't really like network tv but GG has been a favorite of mine since I was a kid.

It's perfectly legal in Alabama.

 

[Francis Rossi]

It's perfectly legal in Alabama.

Could probably marry an ape, not just pull one off.

Hope that's not the last time we see Plastique.

Really liking the show so far. Love the supporting cast especially American Simmons and Latino Fitz. The show could use less of Iris though. My brain has to turn off though whenever Barry lets his targets get away from him, like how Plastique evaded him in their first encounter.

The kids and I make fun of Harrison "Psycho" Wells in every episode like "Wait for it, he's going to suddenly stand up and stab that guy or this guy." Nice to see him return to his homicidal roots by telling Plastique to kill the General. :icon_lol:

 

[Francis Rossi]

She sorta went big badda boom, so I suspect she's dieded.

Or it could have been triggering some sort of further transformation to her powers. It's a superhero show: never say never.

Especially when there's no body.

I was shocked when she was killed in her debut ep. I liked the character and the actress playing her.

Love the supporting cast especially American Simmons and Latino Fitz.

I'm not the biggest fan of latino Fitz. It's the hair.

The show could use less of Iris though.

Get out. She's gorgeous.

The episode with her and Felicity was almost too much for me to handle. When cop boyfriend suggested that she get the same dress as Felicity, I agreed 100%. The only way that episode could have been any better was if Helena's actress (from Arrow) somehow made an appearance.

My brain has to turn off though whenever Barry lets his targets get away from him, like how Plastique evaded him in their first encounter.

My brain has to turn off whenever Barry looks someone dead in the eye, mask or no, and doesn't do the "vibrating face" thing until shouldn't-see-my-face person got several moments of an unobstructed view.
