Flash Series Season 1 Episode 1 Portable

To understand the weight of The Flash series season 1 episode 1 , we have to go back two years prior. Barry Allen (played by Grant Gustin) was first introduced in Arrow season 2, episodes 8 and 9. At that time, he was a nerdy, awkward Central City CSI intern who believed in impossible things—namely, that a particle accelerator could change the world. Fans immediately latched onto Gustin’s earnest charm, and the backdoor pilot was so successful that The CW greenlit a solo series almost immediately.

When Barry wakes, he is not the same. He discovers he has superhuman speed: accelerated healing, super-fast reflexes, and the ability to run hundreds of miles per hour. He is taken in by the surviving members of S.T.A.R. Labs: the brilliant but sarcastic Dr. Cisco Ramon (Carlos Valdes), the stoic physicist Dr. Caitlin Snow (Danielle Panabaker), and the mysterious Harrison Wells (Tom Cavanagh), a wheelchair-bound genius who seems to know more than he lets on. flash series season 1 episode 1
