I never cared about Flash. Ever. He's always been there for me like Superman, Aquaman, Green Lantern and Wonder Woman as DC properties I could never give a crap about. But I watched the leaked pilot because there was a cameo from the Green Arrow. So I could see where them tying into Arrow could be an advantage for Flash. I just hope it doesn't up Arrow. I dont think Arrow itself can suffer. As long as Arrow stays being Arrow....its fine. Take a fantastic meal of the finest Filet Mignon but serve it with a side dish of chicken crap, and there will be less people ordering. Even though you don't have to eat the aforementioned chicken crap side dish, them being coupled together just sours people on the whole meal.

I liked the Flash Pilot.
I'm glad they're tying them in. It makes no sense to have them stay separate. DC could have their universes together.. So they should have them together.

Yes, but you are forgetting something.......the Filet Mignon is served at 2 DIFFERENT restaurants. Just because that one restaurant is serving it with chicken crap, doesnt make anyone soured on the meal that is served at the other restaurant without the chicken crap.

These metaphors are giving me a headache. Arrow good, Flash might be good. If Flash bad, Flash might sour people on Arrow just by association. That's my fear, anyway.

I will continue to eat my Arrow at the Arrow restaurant. If Flash is chicken crap, I just wont eat at the restaurant offering Arrow and Flash. I cannot be soured by the restaurant I am not eating at.

Neither can I but knows about other people. If there's new fans out there that watch Flash and don't like it, and then decide to skip out on Arrow because of it, there may be a problem. Obviously Arrow is doing just fine, but after Angel and Firefly, I tend to be paranoid.

I dont get the Angel comparison, as I thoroughly enjoyed that show....even if I HATED Connor and felt the show nosedived after he was aged.

Angel was crap during seasons 3-4 simply because of the crap that all started with Connor but 5 was the best it had ever been and then they cancelled it right out from underneath everything. Just like Firefly. So I fear for every show I ever get attached to these days.

In the end, it was a nice tie up and explained why he did it. However, what I watched was still bad, even if the last couple of episodes were awesome.

One of the executive producers on the season 3s villain “Slade had a very specific agenda—he was out for revenge and had set up this elaborate five-year plot. What’s interesting about the villain in season three is that he doesn’t necessarily disagree with [Oliver]. He doesn’t have any personal animus towards the Arrow, and he actually in some ways has a very similar worldview. [But] the Arrow is thinking too small.”

I really don't think Flash will hurt Arrow in any way - it's not like they're going to be crossing over every other week. I honestly think people should just give Flash a good chance before writing it off, it may end up being just as good as Arrow. I'm actually more worried about Gotham bombing than Flash.

I still wish Slade sliced his head off.
I guess there's still hope....

aside from the VERY peculiar metaphorical debate going on in here.......I'm really looking forward to Arrow Season 3 and to Flash. Harper looks great as Arsenal.
Constantine too!!

Between Arrow and Flash this season, and yes I have seen the pilot and I loved it coming from a flash hater for many many years, I am super excited. Seeing the Comic Con trailer and Roy as Red Arrow is also amazing...however where my fear comes from is the third major DC show in Gotham. Is it so bad that I want these guys to be handed all DC so TV?
