The Flash is an American superhero television series developed by Greg Berlanti, Andrew Kreisberg, and Geoff Johns, airing on The CW. It is based on the DC Comics character Barry Allen / Flash, a costumed superhero crime-fighter with the power to move at superhuman speeds. It is a spin-off from Arrow, existing in the same fictional universe. The series follows Barry Allen, portrayed by Grant Gustin, a crime scene investigator who gains super-human speed, which he uses to fight criminals, including others who have also gained superhuman abilities.

Initially envisioned as a backdoor pilot, the positive reception Gustin received during two appearances as Barry on Arrow led to executives choosing to develop a full pilot to make use of a larger budget and help flesh out Barry's world in more detail. Colleen Atwood, costume designer for Arrow, was brought in to design the Flash's suit. The creative team wanted to make sure that the Flash would resemble his comic book counterpart, and not simply be a poor imitation. The series is primarily filmed in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

The Flash premiered in North America on October 7, 2014, where the pilot became the second-most watched premiere in the history of The CW, after The Vampire Diaries in 2009. It has been well received by critics and audiences, and won the People's Choice Award for 'Favorite New TV Drama' in 2014. The series, together with Arrow, has spun characters out to their own show, Legends of Tomorrow, which premiered on January 21, 2016. On April 2, 2018, The CW renewed the series for a fifth season, which premiered on October 9, 2018. On January 31, 2019, The CW renewed the series for a sixth season, which is set to premiere on October 8, 2019.

Series overview

The first season follows crime-scene investigator Barry Allen who gains super-human speed after the explosion of the S.T.A.R. Labs' particle accelerator which he uses to fight crime and hunt other metahumans in Central City as the Flash, a masked superhero.^[1] Barry pursues his mother's murderer, Eobard Thawne, eventually uncovering that his mentor Harrison Wells is Eobard in disguise. In the second season, a singularity event brings speedsterZoom from a parallel universe, who seeks to eliminate all other speedsters in the multiverse. After Zoom kills Barry's father, Barry defeats Zoom and travels back in time to save his mother's life.

In the third season, by changing his past, Barry creates the alternate timeline 'Flashpoint'. He is somewhat able to restore the timeline, but causes the emergence of Savitar, a god-like speedster with a grudge against Barry. When Barry accidentally travels to the future and sees Iris West killed by Savitar, he becomes desperate to change the future to prevent that from happening. After saving Iris and defeating Savitar, Barry takes his place in the Speed Force in order to repent for his creation of Flashpoint. The fourth season sees Team Flash successfully bring Barry back from the Speed Force, but in the process release dark matter, turning a dozen people on a city bus into metahumans, masterminded by Clifford DeVoe, an adversary with the fastest mind alive. After the defeat of DeVoe, the team is approached by Barry and Iris' daughter from the future, Nora West-Allen.

Production

Development

On July 30, 2013, it was announced that Arrow co-creators Greg Berlanti and Andrew Kreisberg, Arrow pilot director David Nutter, and DC Comics CCO Geoff Johns would develop a television series based on the Flash for The CW, and it would detail Barry Allen's origin.^[30] Kreisberg revealed after the announcement that Allen would first appear as a recurring character on Arrow in three episodes of season two—all written by Berlanti, Kreisberg and Johns—and the last of the episodes would act as a backdoor pilot for the new show. Kreisberg added that Allen would be a forensic scientist and the introduction of his superpowers, as well as the reactions to this, will be very human and grounded. Johns stated that the character of the Flash in the show would resemble his comic book counterpart, complete with his trademark red costume, and not be a poor imitation. Kreisberg elaborated: 'No sweat suits or strange code names; he will be The Flash.' While researching the best way to depict the Flash's lightning speed, Johns stated it would not just be the standard 'blurring around'.^[31]

Barry ultimately appeared twice in Arrow's second season, with the planned backdoor pilot cancelled in favor of a traditional pilot by The CW executives, who had been impressed by early cuts of Barry's first two episodes on Arrow. This allowed the creative team to flesh out Barry's story and his world on a bigger budget, as opposed to a backdoor pilot's constraint of incorporating characters from the parent show. The pilot was officially ordered on January 29, 2014, and was written by Berlanti, Kreisberg, and Johns, and directed by Nutter.^[32][33] On May 8, 2014, The Flash was officially picked up as a series, with an initial order of 13 episodes.^[34] Three more scripts were ordered in September 2014 following a positive response to newly completed episodes by executives,^[35] while a back ten was ordered the next month for a full 23-episode season.^[36]

With the commencement of production on the series' second season, former Arrow and Ugly Betty writer Gabrielle Stanton was promoted to executive producer and showrunner; after having served as consulting producer and writer on the first season's finale 'Fast Enough'.^[37] However, it was later reported that Kreisberg would be returning to sole showrunner duties at an unspecified time.^[38] That time was later proved to be at the start of 2016, 'Potential Energy', when Stanton was no longer credited as being involved with the show. In May 2017, it was reported that Aaron Helbing would be departing the series. Helbing had served as a writer since the first season, and as co-showrunner, along with his brother Todd and Kreisberg, since the second.^[39]

On April 2, 2018, The CW renewed the series for a fifth season, which premiered on October 9, 2018.^[40][41] On January 31, 2019, The CW renewed the series for a sixth season,^[42] which is set to premiere on October 8, 2019.^[8]

Design

The costume was designed by Colleen Atwood, who also designed the costumes for Arrow.^[43] It features a burgundy color scheme, a masked helmet, and gold accents throughout,^[44] and went through multiple adjustments from the moment it was placed in computer renderings to the day of filming the pilot.^[11] Primarily made of leather, the suit contains areas with a stretchable material to allow Gustin room to bend. According to Atwood 'It was all about a costume that could sell speed, Grant [Gustin] was continually moving in the suit, so it had to be designed to make that all happen visually and functionally.'^[45] It initially took Gustin approximately 40 minutes to get into his costume, as the first cowl was prosthetic and had to be zipped and glued to his face. This was cut down to approximately 15 minutes by episode eight, when designers were able to develop a new cowl that easily slid over Gustin's face and locked into place.^[11] Maya Mani replaced Atwood as the costume designer for the second season and made slight changes to the Flash costume, such as changing the color of his crest from yellow to white, being faithful to the Flash costume from the comics.^[46]

Filming

Production on the pilot began in March 2014, with filming taking place in Vancouver, British Columbia;^[47] additional filming for the series takes place in Portland, Oregon.^[48] On how action sequences are shot for the series, compared to Arrow, Gustin said, 'When [Arrow] shoot[s] action sequences, pretty much what you see is what you get and they're really doing everything. We do a lot of plate shots that are empty shots of the area we're going to be in and then they're putting us in later in post. I do a lot of the fighting. I don't have to do it full speed and then they ramp it up and a lot of people have to freeze and I keep moving. Then I have to clear frame and step back into frame. It's really tedious stuff that we have to do. On theirs, they learn fight choreography and they shoot it from the perfect angles and what you see is what you get.'^[49] Production on the third season began in early July 2016.^[50]

Music

Arrow composer Blake Neely is the primary composer of the series, and was first hired in April 2014 to score the pilot.^[51][52] He had previously composed a theme for Barry Allen which was featured in Arrow's season two episodes 'The Scientist' and 'Three Ghosts'. The theme was titled 'The Scientist' when it was released on the Arrow: Season 2 soundtrack. According to Neely, 'It had to be different [from Arrow] ... but it also couldn't be so different that it couldn't fit in the Arrow universe, ... it had to be in a style that could hold hands with Arrow.'^[53] On December 18, 2014, WaterTower Music released a selection of music from The Flash/Arrow crossover episodes, as well as two bonus tracks from their respective 2014 midseason finales.^[54] The first season, two-disc soundtrack was released on October 16, 2015.^[55] The second season's soundtrack was released digitally on July 22, 2016,^[56] and in CD format on July 26, 2016.^[57]

Sound design

The sound design for the show is handled by Mark Camperell. The sound effect for Barry is made up of elements of thunder, electricity, jets, fireballs, and various custom whooshes and impacts. Speaking about designing the sound for The Flash's ability, Mark says: 'My approach for the sounds of The Flash's ability was to editorially treat him like a really aggressively driven hot rod. This doesn't mean that I used car sounds for him, though. What I mean is that when thinking about how to edit his sounds, I thought about it like cutting a car chase.'^[58]

What are Flash games?

Lego Cw Flash Game

The Flash Player is a plugin that was used to make online games before browsers could handle complex animations. Way back when the internet was new, it was just web pages, images, and links. The technology to create the animations needed to play a complex 2D game were missing in the early browsers like Netscape, Internet Explorer and even early versions of modern browsers like Chrome. However, there was a company called Macromedia, that was an early developer of The Flash plugin. It was originally meant to just play animations. Once the technology was purchased by Adobe Inc, Flash player use enabled an entire platform of games and apps. Over one hundred thousand Flash games were made and maybe equally as many Flash animations representing a generation of the early internet. Fast forward 20 years, fast paced developments from large tech companies have enabled open standards more capable of creating rich web applications and games. See Html5 Games and Webgl Games.

As so many games have been created, we believe they are worth keeping online as long as possible to preserve the history they showcase. Some of these games were made during the Dot Com Bubble and during the Great Recession, many of the darkest games had to be disabled as social norms have shifted. The majority of games are positive and represent the interactive art created over the first 30 years of the early internet. Although our Games has previously also maintained and discarded older plugins, Flash is truly unique in the scale of media created.

Where are the Flash games going?

Browser support for the Flash plugin is quickly fading. At some point it will be more difficult to find and play Flash based games.
