Kinda off-topic but whatever: Thoughts on The Flash season 3? (spoilers if you haven't watched it)

My thoughts:

one...

big...

MEH!

It's been very slow so far, ironically. There's been 4 new speedsters (Wally Jesse, and The Rival, plus savitar), Snow has powers now, Cisco's powers are more pronounced, and they even brought back Grodd... and yet, it's been slow AF. With all these powered people, is it really too much to ask for a decent dosage of action every once in a while? For the majority of the season, it's been almost nothing but "BARRY AND IRIS THIS, BARRY AND IRIS THAT", "I WANT TO SAVE YOU BUT I PREFER BEING A WHINY LITTLE BITCH SO I'M JUST GONNA SIT AND MOPE FOR HALF AN HOUR". It's like they spent their entire budget on making new fancy set pieces, and spent not of it one actually filming good action scenes and an engaging storyline. I don't remember any DC shows being this way in the past (my thoughts on Arrow are similar, but at least Arrow started great and kept with it for a while this season).

Long story short, DC, please, get some more adrenaline into your shows or your ratings will continue to dip, but even more than they have been. But hey, Legends has been good (ironically the show with c list characters, and a shorter season).
