Some thoughts from Tony: Well, with Finish Line come and gone, we've come to the end of Season Three! A season full of excitement, weirdness, wonderfulness, a ton of stuff that we loved and a handful…

Oh my goodness, what an episode! So much to unpack. Okay, how many folks think Iris is really dead? How many folks think Barry will go back and change the timeline again?

The Flash, Season 3, Episode 21: Cause and Effect Barry-Go-Round Much like Iris and Joe, holy jeez did I love the return of happy-go-lucky, plucky Barry Allen.

The Flash, Season 3, Episode 20: I Know Who You Are Your Own Worst Enemy Well, the big reveal is in! Barry truly is his own worst enemy, as Savitar is...Future Barry!

The Flash, Season 3, Episode 19: The Once and Future Flash Some thoughts from Joe: HR Gives Us the Jitters Welcome back, all! After a long, long month, the Flash is back with a bang!

Thoughts from Joe.... He's a Magic Man Oh, I'm a happy camper. One of my favorite members of the Rogues Gallery has finally made his long-overdue appearance.

​Some thoughts from Joe on The Flash, Season 3, Episode 17: Duet A Song in Your Heart And so, I make a confession. One I rarely admit to, but is true all the same.

Love's Hard As Michiganders, Tony and I have to occasionally deal with the fact that winter can be an utter beast. This past week, we (like hundreds of thousands of MI homes) lost power.

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.

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!

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…

The Flash, Season 3, Episode 11: Dead or Alive The Gypsy Road Can't Take Wells Home Wells, Wells, Wells! Looks like another classic DC mainstay has entered into the Flarrowverse!

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…

BEST! TEAMUP! EVER! That was our response, and Felicity's, after Barry gathered together the CW heroes to fight off the invasion from The Dominators! What a terrific time to be a comic book fan!

The Flash Season 3 Episode 7: Killer Frost WOW! What an episode. The Flash was firing on all cylinders this week, and here are some thoughts from Joe: The Flash, Season 3, Episode 7: Killer Frost The…

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!

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.

We're back! After a month off, The Flash returns with Trajectory, a fine episode full of fun, excitement, and canyon jumps!

Undergrounders! Since The Flash is on a brief hiatus, we thought we'd just share a little silliness. So, here's a collection of some of the awful stuff that DOESN'T make it into the podcast!

The Hunters and the Hunted Well, it just wouldn't be the Flash unless someone you trusted turned out to be a speedster wolf in sheep's clothing. Ain't that always the way?

A Whole Lotta Feedback Goin' On That smoldering wreckage you see? That's what's left of my email, after it exploded from an massive influx of feedback sent in by you, our gentle listeners.

This week, in Welcome To Earth-2, we got an AMAZING trip to Earth-2 from the writers and production team, some fantastic work by the cast, and it all added up to one of the most fun, exciting,…

FAST LANE CCU 56- Season 2 Episode 12 The new episode of FLASH, Fast Lane, brought us a classic villain but, even more importantly, it brought some great development in the West family, and the Star…

Zolomania!This was the episode I'd been waiting all season for, on a lot of levels. I admit that while I do (and likely always will) love this show from the bottom of my nerdy heart, I've had several…

THE MAN WHO SAVED CENTRAL CITY CCU 45 - S2 E1 Joe Zettelmaier shares some thoughts about the start of Season 2! Back like a (Capt.) Boomerang We're back, baby!

A Whole New World(s) Less than a month. We're less than one month away from the return of the scarlet speedster and his wacky gang of cops and scientists. What does Season 2 hold for us?

Sometimes, an event happens…two forces of unimaginable power collide, but they are not destroyed. Instead, they merge to become something even greater than their individual parts.

Happy Summer, Flash fans! It's been too long since we got to talk about our favorite hero, so Joe and I are back for Summer Hiatus Comic Con Report!

Until we Flash again... I'm not going to go into depths on the season finale. Chances are, if you're reading this blog, you've seen the episode. And if you haven't, why spoil anything?

The Good,The Bad, And Somebody Lock The Door I admit that while I enjoyed this week's episode (Rouge Air), it didn't wow me the way I wanted it to.

All Grodd Things Grodd Lives! Grodd. Grodd. GroddGroddGroddGroddGroddGrodd. This was my thought process while watching Ep. 21 today.

Episode 20 of THE FLASH, The Trap, brought together a whole bunch of the threads the writers have been weaving all season into one amazing tapestry of revelations, questions and jaw-dropping moments.

Here we are, at episode 19 of FLASH, Season One! Everyman gives the team a challenge this week, and we get the table set for some exciting things to come in the final four episodes of the season!

Flash, Season 1, Episode 14 - Fallout To Spin-Off or not to Spin-Off Hello again, all! Joey Shakespeare here again to throw out some thoughts, make some musings and otherwise blog away.

A SOURCE IS A SOURCE One of the things Tony and I discuss in this week's CCU podcast is The Flash's willingness to adhere to the source material...so long as it suits them.

Welcome, citizens of Central City (and perhaps it's neighbor/twin, Keystone City!) Before we launch into discussion of Peekaboo, and her adventures with Flash, let's do some introductions: Who on…

The Judge and The Man in the Suit sound off about the Pied Piper. No more "Toni" and "Joe"; we've got real underground names now. We heard about Hartley Rathaway last week, and this week we meet him.

BOOM! UNDERGROUND - this is The Shadow here with some initial reactions to the fifth EXPLOSIVE of The Flash, which aired on Tuesday November 11, 2014 and was appropriately entitled Plastique.

Brr! It's cold in here! I was hoping it wasn't just me feeling the chill this week. I can take a bit more of the icy weather than most, but this week it was downright chilling!

Freshly back from the island , Miss Ice rejoins The Shadow in their underground lair with a new transmission!

In this transmission of Underground Radio, Miss Ice and The Shadow watched the DC Comics animated film entitled [[[Flashpoint Paradox]]], the film that kicked off the New 52 comic series.

Since Miss Ice was released from jail, she's been a bit skittish. She mistook our guest host this week for a lurking villain when all he was trying to do was navigate the complex underground…

This wasn't supposed to happen... I didn't realize I was transmitting. I'm not even sure HOW I transmitted. I never hacked any frequency. I'm not sure who will hear this... if anyone...
