Primetime Pick… 5/24/16

May 24, 2016 Posted by in Features | Comments

Tonight, the second season of The Flash comes to a close on The CW. Last week’s episode picked up right as Zoom had amassed an army of Earth-2 meta-humans and had brought them to Earth-1 to take over Central City. While the group quickly got to work on a plan to stop the meta-humans, Wally took to the streets to join the fight vigilante-style. Joe was worried and asked Barry to help bring Wally home. However, Barry was thrown off his game when he discovered the leader of the attack was the Black Siren – Laurel Lance’s (aka the Black Canary’s) Earth-2 doppelganger. Eventually the group at STAR labs came up with a plan to blast a sound at a particular frequency that would render anyone from Earth-2 unconscious. The plan, which also involved Caitlin and Cisco going undercover as Killer Frost and Reverb, seemed to be a success, and they were able to round up all the Earth-2 meta-humans. However, Zoom managed to open a rift and escape, and Dr. Wells was nearly killed when he gave his protective headphones to his daughter after hers started to fail. At the end of the episode, Zoom returned to get his revenge – he grabbed Henry and brought him to the same room where Barry’s mother died and stuck his reverberating hand through Henry’s chest as Barry watched in horror.

What a cliffhanger… I’m so glad we still get one more episode tonight! Will Barry be able to avenge his father’s death and finally kill Zoom? Will we finally find out who the man in the iron mask is in Zoom’s lair? How is Wally going to react to discovering that Barry is the Flash? And will Cisco figure out how he unleashed that Reverb-style blast, and will he be able to recreate it and harness this power?

On tonight’s finale, “The Race of His Life,” season 2 ends with Zoom revealing his true plan and Barry vowing to do whatever it takes to stop him.

Find out how the season ends tonight on The CW at 8/7c.

I’ll also be watching/recording The Price Is Right Primetime Special – Big Brother Edition, Fresh Off the Boat, The Real O’Neals, Containment, Chrisley Knows Best, and First Impressions with Dana Carvey.
