New TV Season

[conuly]

Question: I stopped watching The Flash midway through last season. The whole arc was ugh boring and also problematic.

Should I a. push through the rest of the season b. skip it, read the recap, start next season fresh c. don't bother reading a recap either or d. just give up on the show entirely?

Also, there is a giveaway to win a copy of Provenance by Ann Leckie, and so far I'm liking my copy, so if you liked the Imperial Radch trilogy you should enter. This is set in the same universe, but not involving the same people.

Skip it! Maybe read the recap? Though I imagine they'll cover it on the previouslies?

I stopped watching after the Supergirl musical episode, but everyone says this season will be fun again, so I figured I'd just pick it up like a new viewer.

I sure hope it's fun again, and also maaaaaaybe a little better with the gender politics? I'm thinking?

Now let's not get crazy!

Though apparently Iris is in charge of Team Flash to start, so maybe?

Hope springs eternal.

Thanks for the rec, buying Provenance now.

Provenance -- just devoured it -- is Very Fun.

It took me a few chapters to realize I wasn't going to get another epic space opera, but then I loved it.

Oh, lords, strewth -- I was so unsure if they were going to go gallivanting off at the start, or what. I do quite like what was done with it, though!

Entering that giveaway!!

Eh, can't imagine The Flash being worth it. But then, while I like Barry Allen I haven't been impressed by his show.

I liked it well enough, and enough of my friends watch it that "I like it well enough" is reason to watch as well.

I gave up on the Flash too, though I think it was the season before. I just wasn't enjoying it anymore :(

[conuly]

Maybe I'll see what friends think of this season before committing to a plan of action.

[mythicgeek]

That's probably a good idea!
