Since Flash and Elongated Man are such great friends in the comics, it'd be great to see him on the show.

I just hope they could come up with a better costume. And I wish they could give him a better code-name. "Elongated Man" just plain sucks...

Well EM first appeared in the Flash comics as a friend of his I think. And then had some back up stories in the book.
And I am sure with todays CGI it would be a breeze to do his powers.

So is the Supergirl episode out of continuity for Flash? You'd think they'd have made some reference to it at least.

Given that he shows up in Supergirl wearing Reverse Flash's tachyon thingy on his chest, it would appear that he was putting the info he acquired in this episode to use. Ergo the events in Supergirl have to happen sometime after this episode. Hopefully we'll get more info on it in the next episode or two.

That crossover was so much fun, they need to do it the otehr way now. The Supergirl/Cisco exchanges alone would be worth it.

Inspiration! The Hunter Zolomon from the newly changed timeline became Zoom due to something that changed. In the effort to stop Zoom, Barry is responsible for creating him - time travel cliche!

Maybe. Their time travel logic is all over the place anyway. I think I agree with people on another board this is a Jay from yet another Earth that came to E2 looking for a cure.

The show's producer has said outright that Zoom is Hunter Zoloman from Earth 1.

Now, how that fits with Jay from Earth-2, the man in the mask, etc... We'll just have to wait and see.

Where did he say that? If that's true they he kind of blew spoilers on his own show.

So then when Jay of E2 was showing Caitlyn Hunter on her earth, he really was sitting in the park watching ducks.

YouTube has a fan-made Flashpoint Paradox trailer, posted April 1st by UltraSargent, that you really should check out. It's an outstanding effort! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YHr3y8jX1vw
(And, given that it's a fan-made trailer for a non-existent movie, April Fools' Day was the right day to post it.

Okay, some more things to add about last night's episode.

I can accept a certain amount of BS, but I think that episode exceeded my limits.

What a disaster.
Spoiler for Hidden:
This season seems to be really bad for the Arrowverse writers. They can't seem to write an episode without the characters being morons in order to advance the plot. I get that characters make sub-optimal choices in the interest of character or even ham-handed drama, but it's getting really bad.

Their plan was to let Zoom into Earth-1 and then use the anti-speedster gun on him. No backup plan. I'm stunned that Wells went along with this. The speed gun should have been followed up with a pummelling/speed draining nanites/tranquilizers IMMEDIATELY until Jay was positively restrained and couldn't have been playing possum.

Then, Then!, they honour the deal with Zoom?!?!

Couldn't they have played possum, pretended that Barry was out of speed force? Even started a new fight with Barry and Zoom to get him back through the portal into Earth-2 when Wally was safe?

I'm stunned that Wells didn't have some "defence-in-depth" going on. ie. What if Barry's primary plan doesn't work? Apparently, the fallback position to that was... nothing.

I expect this kind of stupidity from Legends.

Don't get me started on the time remnant. When did he come from? How did Zoom convince Remmy to allow Zoom to kill him? All the experiences with Caitlin were with Remmy, right? Why does Zoom even listen to her in her appeal to humanity? Basically, they've never interacted.

If they're going to make a season spanning villain, they need to actually plan it out so it makes sense in hindsight.

As Ricky Ricardo always says - "They have some esplanin' to do"

A lot of that episode just doesn't make sense.

Neat, I was all ready to rant about the mounds of ridiculous in that episode and find that it's already been covered. I feel like a proud papa.

Yeah. The Reverse Flash thing was handled well in the first season. This Zoom thing is getting to be a big confusing mess.
