CCU 83 – S3 E14 – Attack On Central City

Sometimes you go to Planet of the Apes. Sometimes Planet of the Apes comes to you.

I imagine it’ll come as no surprise when I say how much I dug this episode. Of Grodd, Barry said “He’s evolving.” Dang right he is. More than any episode to date, we’re finally seeing Grodd go from being a sympathetic, tortured beast to a ruthless conqueror. Conqueror Grodd is my favorite Grodd, the Grodd of the comics, who looks down on humans as moronic neanderthals in no way equal to his mighty Apeness.

CCU 82 – S3 E13 – Attack On Gorilla City

Great Apes!

We got to see it….to REALLY see it. Sure, we had a brief glimpse last season, but this time, we got to see Gorilla City in all it’s primeval glory! Those familiar w/ the comics know that this secret society of super-apes is a staple of the DCU. Sure, the comic version had an outer-space aspect, and was surrounded by a cloaking field keeping it hidden from puny humans, but the real selling point was always the apes.

CCU 81 – S3 E12 – Untouchable

The Flash, Season 3, Episode 2: Untouchable

Oh, Death

With so many thoughts of murder floating about The Flash right now, it’s hardly surprising that this week’s baddie could literally kill w/ a touch. Death is coming to Central City, and no, I don’t mean the Black Flash. The prophecy of Savitar says that one will fall…but who is that one? Harder and harder to say.

Wells, Wells, Wells! Looks like another classic DC mainstay has entered into the Flarrowverse! Ladies and gentlemen, we present…Cindy Reynolds aka Gypsy!

CCU 79 – S3 E10 – Borrowing Problems From The Future

BORROWING PROBLEMS FROM THE FUTURE

The Flash is back! After a long hiatus, we get the 10th episode of season 3, and it’s a ton of fun. Be honest: Who wants to live in Iris and Barry’s new apartment? (If you guessed Tony and Joe, you’re right.) Speaking of Joe – here are some thoughts from him…. Read more…

CCU 78 – S3 E9 – The Present

CCU 78 – S3 E9 – The Present

Well, we have to wait 6 more weeks for another episode, but The Flash left us with a good one! The Present had some fun reveals, a few head-scratcher moments and at least one terrifying look into the future. Tony and Joe and the CCU Undergrounders discuss it in this SUPERSIZED podcast, designed to last you until we get another episode! Here are some thoughts from Joe: Read more…

CCU 77 – S3 E8 – Invasion!

The Strange Case of Julian Albert and Dr. Alchemy
Huh. Well. I’ll be danged. Read more…

CCU 75 – S3 E6 – Shade

CCU 75 – S3 E6 – Shade

The Flash really stepped up their game this week, with a great Caitilin storyline building to some exciting things, and a terrific Wally/Alchemy story that led us to SAVITAR! (?!?) Despite Shade himself being a very weak plot-device villain, this episode had a lot of great stuff going for it. Here are some thoughts from co-host Joe: Read more…

CCU 74 – S3 E5 – Monster

CCU 74 – S3 E5 – Monster

So he’s…not so much a scientist as an…author? He’s a goofball with a heart of gold and really not much to offer Team Flash? I gotta admit, I’m not without my concerns. I’m a tad bit uncertain about the whole “revolving-door-of-Harrys” Not that Tom Cavanaugh isn’t up to the task. If you told me he’d be playing a 14-year-old Russian ballerina, I’d say “Yeah, I can see it.” I just don’t know what the point is beyond keeping him on the show, and I guess that just isn’t enough for me. Do I think the Flash has jumped the shark? (or King Shark?) No, not at all. But I swear I heard a motorcycle revving up for a second. That being said…Tom Felton? Daaaaaaaaaaaaaamn, Read more…
