“The Flash Reborn” Overnight Ratings Report

Overnight ratings report for The Flash season premiere “The Flash Reborn”

Published

on

The Flash may have been reborn, but his overnight ratings don’t seem to be… yet.

The series had a 1.0/4 in the Ages 18-49 demo for the season premiere “The Flash Reborn” on October 10 with a total of 2.8 million viewers according to the overnight ratings; those numbers can and will go up. On the bright side, that demo number is still better than, say, Marvel’s Inhumans on ABC… and the show did beat Lethal Weapon in the same time slot in the demo. On the down side, it’s lower than where The Flash usually is, especially for a season premiere.

Hopefully once people get used to the show being back the numbers will go back up. Next week’s episode is very good and worth watching live. And, of course, the final numbers for the season premiere can and will go up once streaming and DVR are factored in.

What did you think of The Flash season premiere? Come talk about it on our Flash forum!

    I’ll take a 1.0 in today’s environment, especially if it doesn’t drop in the final numbers.

    I’ll put it this way; I’ll watch all the episodes of this show again. But this episode I will not watch again. It was nice to see Iris have a different role and see how the team was managing without Barry. But I strongly feel that A: The could have brought Barry back a little later in the season B: The whole thing with Barry in his crazy phase and how he just quickly snapped out of it after learning Iris was kidnapped C That Tracy wasn’t still part of the team and D: I was wondering how is is the Star Labs still functioning right now? I think it would have been better if the Samuroid was a new Meta perhaps instead of it being a robot. Although it did lead to a good reveal of The Thinker. But also it would have been nice to see how Wally was dealing with taking up in Barry’s absence more than just one episode. Needless to say, there could have been much more better things done with this episode. Hopefully they can explain some more later in this season, I was quite disappointed with this new episode.

      Yep! I just said the same. Barry came back too soon and it’s costly with many fans. That gun Cisco had should have been used, deemed unsuccessful, and passed the suit over to Wally. I also feel that Barry got a new suit too soon, let alone how crappy it was for them to introduce it. The scenes of Barry losing it should have been saved for the next season. You want to give us such an awesome teaser but give us reason y’know? I’m questioning why, as I mentioned before Wally is there and he looks pretty awesome in the suit might I add. As for Samuroid, he could have played a much more prominent role than just one episode and yet do I still question how he’d even known that Wally donned the suit? I was pretty lost there. Like you was I disappointed and also like you will I give it a shot, but I also noticed that while Wally fought him and the stab was a follow up. .what happened to his healing factor?

    As I told a few of my other friends. Barry came back too soon which resulted in other characters completely lacking spotlight with an example being Wally. Right now I haven’t a clue at this point why they’ve introduced a legendary speedster and we barely see anything with him, let alone donning the suit for the first time which to me was also a means of trolling us fans. But, when you that is it paid for hence the ratings. I could have done without Gustin for this entire season to be honest and not at all is it due to criticizing his skill set with acting! It’s preferred that we have more Wally. Yep. The show is called the Flash. We get it. But Wally too, was the Flash.

Flash References In New Grant Gustin Commercial

The Flash actor Grant Gustin has appeared in a new commercial for MNTN with former Green Lantern Ryan Reynolds.

Published

on

The Flash Grant Gustin is in a new trailer for MNTN alongside Ryan Reynolds, who, of course, played another DC hero, Green Lantern, back in the day. In the trailer, Grant plays a character named “Seymour Roas” but despite this, Reynolds can’t resist making a few Flash puns at Grant’s expense.

The commercial is quite fun and ends with the thoughts many of us have had, with Reynolds saying to Grant “you’ll always be my Barry,” only to have Grant respond with “you’ll always be my Hal.” If only we had gotten to see this team-up in an actual film; maybe it would have redeemed the awful Green Lantern movie and given us a Flash we all love rather than the person who headlined this year’s flop.

You can see the trailer below.

No, That Was Not Teddy Sears In The Flash Movie

Flash TV series actor Teddy Sears confirms that was not him playing Jay Garrick in The Flash movie.

Published

SPOILER WARNING: The Warner Bros. Pictures film The Flash is being discussed in this post.

The Flash is currently speeding onto movie screens, and considering the box office, it might be speeding out of theaters just as fast, but there is one particular thing that fans of The Flash TV series have been wondering: Did we see a cameo of Teddy Sears as Jay Garrick in The Flash movie?

The answer is: No. TVLine did their due diligence in finding out from Sears himself what is going on.

“People kept telling me that I was in the new Flash movie…,” Sears told TVLine in an article posted on their website. “I mean, I’m sleep-deprived with a newborn at home, so my memory is a little foggy. But I’m pretty sure I would have remembered shooting a major DC Studios film.”

“Sadly, I’m not in this,” he continued. He did acknowledge that the likeness does look like him.

There are some other cameos – sadly, not Grant Gustin or John Wesley Shipp, either. The movie is currently playing in theaters worldwide. As for Teddy Sears? Look for him in the DC Animated feature Justice League: Warworld where he will voice Travis Morgan, a.k.a. The Warlord. That comes out in July.
