Deciding not to capitalize on a strong cliffhanger, favoring a flashback reveal(?) and planting seeds instead of satisfying character work wasn't what fans expected. After delivering an impressive and crowd-pleasing first season, the minds behind The Flash took the summer off to hatch a second season premiere that was, if we're completely honest, underwhelming.
