The casting was excellent. If anyone looked like their comic book, it was the guy playing Ralph. Even down to the nose wiggle!

Glad he wasn't another bad guy - tired of seeing like every meta human being evil.

Loved the Plastic Man joke.

And liked the nod to the original Flash - Bellows being an ex cop in Central City.

Really makes it feel like the 1990 show is another alternate Earth, like it was shown to be.

Not sure why DeVoe used his real name in dealing with Dibney.  Why not use Smith or Johnson (Shadowrun anyone)?

I hope that it's part of some master plan to draw the Flash in.  He seems to need the Flash for what he's got planned, so we'll see.

I do love the continued tone of fun and adventure!  Machete/Breacher/Josh was great to see. 

I'm hoping that Ralph becomes a fairly common guest star.  He seems like fun and will provide a little conflict in the show without going over the top.

Didn't Elongated Man start as a back up in the Flash comics? And also in the comics they sort of teamed up quite a bit.

Ralph first appeared in the Flash. He was a mystery character that at first Barry feared was a villain. His first outfit was quite ... out there.

I guess Cisco will make him an outfit that can stretch - unstable molecules anyone?

When you insult someone by calling them a "pig" or a "dog" you aren't maligning pigs and dogs everywhere.  The same is true of any term used as an insult.

I forgot - how did Plastic Man get his powers? Maybe he could be a version of Ralph on an alternate Earth.

Your standard barrel o' chemicals for PM. I like Ralph's freebased soda much better.

Isn't that the same drink that turns Olsen into Elastic Lad? and if so why cant anyone drink it to get the powers?

Apparently it's a poison or allergen to a lot of people.  Some people can consume the Gingo fruit without any issues.  Only a very select few actually develop special abilities.

I was once being interviewed by Barbara Walters...In between two of the segments she asked me..."But what would you do if the doctor gave you only six months to live?" I said, "Type faster." - Isaac Asimov

Lucky he didn't do any super speed stuff by accident.

Did they just make the decision to make this and Legends into lame sitcoms this season? Just a constant stream of dad jokes at this point.

I am liking Legends a lot so far. Its the light show of the bunch so I have no problems. Though for a super hero show they certainly have a lack there of each week.

As far as the Flash - a change of pace after the brooding, 'oh poor me', Barry.

And Ralph adds a but of comedy as well.

I am thinking though that Joe's new kid is somehow part of DeVroe's plan as well.

I'm the Flassssssssh!!!!!!!!

For Flash..yes

For Legends you are a season behind that comment :P and there is zero wrong with that because Legends is 100% the best Arrowverse show ATM.

I was going to say I'm still enjoying Flash a bit more, but then I thought "well, except for Mr. Rory"...
