After a particle accelerator causes a freak storm, CSI Investigator Barry Allen is struck by lightning and falls into a coma.
Months later he awakens with the power of super speed, granting him the ability to move through Central City like an unseen guardian angel. Though initially excited by his newfound powers, Barry is shocked to discover he is not the only 'meta-human' who was created in the wake of the accelerator explosion - and not everyone is using their new powers for good. Barry partners with S.T.A.R.
Labs and dedicates his life to protect the innocent. For now, only a few close friends and associates know that Barry is literally the fastest man alive, but it won't be long before the world learns what Barry Allen has become... The Flash!
This version of The Flash started with a recurring character on Arrow.
Well that was an uninspired and pointless ending… and while I believe it was shite for most of its run (pun intended) I also believe I shall miss it… it was nice to have an basically unoffensive cheesefest of a superhero show on. Everything is so EXTREME nowadays

would some one summarise the ending so I do not need to watch it? did the Flash and his missus depart for eternity?

"The Flash is now cancelled/ended" is the greatest notification i've ever gotten from anything.
The last half of that finale really did a nice job simulating how boring it would be to be the flash. I just kept upping the playback speed and it didn't matter.

how will Flash end? He and his wife go into the flash stream for eternity with eternal bliss, like Arrow did?
Who cares? As long as it ends! :)

Much, much worse. Arrow was actually at its worst in one of the middle seasons. With Flash every single episode I can't imagine it getting worse, yet it keeps proving me wrong. But hey, only one more chance for it to lower the bar, so I'm almost clear.

I have to hand it to these folks. I didn't think it was possible but they just keep getting worse and worse every season, and this season, every episode. They know they're getting to the end and want to cause as much cringe as possible and boy are they nailing it.
when it is all over I will take a look - is it as bad as Arrow in the end?

I'm sure they'll at least wind up having bit parts in the terrible CW shows of the 2030s and long careers on the convention circuit
I doubt that, the new owners of CW seem to have a radically different direction in mind with the network.

Question: will we ever see these actors again? or are their careers over?
