He really said Iris you suck cuz she couldn't put out a fire on her first try after literally just getting the speed few hours earlier. I blame this one on Barry i mean come on, he didn't even tell her which direction to turn her arms first of all. 2nd of all he got all lost and confused which didn't help the situation at all. Iris and the rest are usually all calm behind the coms trying to come up with solutions which is how the com person should be. and 3rd of all how many times did Wally screw up or didn't know how to do some things even after having his power for quite some time and you never said "WALLY YOU SUCK". You're really pissing me off sometimes with your hate towards Iris for no reason. She's been good this season and did her job better then most could but you still see the annoying Iris from season 2 i guess

ArchetypePreston

to be fair she’s rlly annoying 😭

paola

“Omg I can run 🏃 I can run I’m back!!!” 😂😂😂

Jayden Hunter

Season 5 ain't bad.

Timothy Paredes

Bro forgot Barry's been rich since season 1 💀

GranddaddyPurp

i know, and honestly i forgot about AM so cudos for that. Although how that explains sudden change in barry's powers going from yellow/orange to purple

Cayseron

Damn don really hates iris lol

Samuel Redmon

Cause she is Iris. There is no other reason. People say that Iris is annoying and all that but if anything Iris says would not be Iris and instead is Caitlin for example, people would be okay nice. But cause Iris says those things everyone hates Iris so they are gonna be why Irios would say this thing is stupid etc. I always liked Iris, she is great character and im not hating character for some little annoying parts cause im not that weak or just pussy who complains about everything XD.

Joovain

Barry is millionaire btw. After Thawne gave star labs to Barry.

Joovain

I dont know who you listen to, but season 5 is not bad season. Season 5 is pretty good.

Joovain

You know they never really mention it but Barry is rich he owns star labs the company not just the one in central city there are a bunch of them all over the world

Ras

Iris isnt only one with purple lightning. Accelerated Man also have purple lightning and that guy have been in this show for just little bit in Gypsy's earth when Cisco went to ask help to defeat Grodd.

Joovain

exactly

Cayseron

Barry's and Jesse's lighting is orange but yeah the purple ain't making sense, then again savitar's lightning was white because of the suit and when good Barry went into the suit it wasn't white, and godspeed who has artificial superspeed has the white lighting too, it didn't ever make sense

samuel bonarrigo

so barry allen gets super speed and has yellow lines, wally west gets super speed and has yellow lines, jesse from earth 2, jay from earth 3, both yellow lines... almost like rule of speedster is to have yellow lines based on how super powers work. Reverse flash has red because he is REVERSE aka OPPOSITE and we learn that blue lines represent superspeed sickness and is lethal. So what is explanation behind this transfer of barry's powers to iris that makes it randomly purple other than tickling feminist balls for approval?

Cayseron

Thought he uploaded cobra Kai😢

Ejhaver

don u should react to big mouth it’s really funny

jaion rivers

you should continue daredevil

Nazir

i need TED LASSOOOO

Jordan2x

You know Don read the title and considered skipping this episode 🤣

ThatRandomDon

Don you should watch Monsters Inc or Ratatouille. Both great movies

Andrew Sickler

clueless

Magagins

i agree

Elvys Wynns

Is don really gonna do legends of tommorow and if so i hope he sees season 2

Slayxrss With Legal Aimbot

when was the last anime video don uploaded, im starving out here x.x

JammySplosha

tru

Elvys Wynns

Don can u post before 11pm?

Jamie

True and the public probably have a go fund me for it

Jamie

He was the sole beneficiary to Harrison Wells (Eobard Thawne)'s estate. Just selling off his mansion probably has them good for a while.

Nirjhor Nath

Was an interesting filler Tbf

Jamie

everytime Ralph throws his two sense in it’s funny cuz he really don’t understand n think bout shit 😂 he hears it might work n he wanna do it when it could kill Harry 😂

Jordan2x

Ciscos smart he probably robs rich people while Barry steals from all the bad guys he stops

Jamie

When can don start legends? He’s nearly there on arrow and already there on flash so he could replace flash for it when he’s done and caught up w affown

Jamie

Donnn we need megamind!

RottenFishstick

He ask how they afford everything like 10x now and is more amazed every time 😂😂😂

Dc Jerome

Don hopefully you read this. You asked how they afford everything. You have to remember evil Harrison wells gave Barry his entire fortune. He left him star labs and the millions of dollars from his estate. Barry is a millionaire. That’s how he pays Caitlin and Cisco and iris.

Diontre Berry

zesty ass intro

Magagins

I'd love for that! Been meaning to watch it for the longest time. That would give me a perfect excuse :O

Recondite

surprised your defending iris this episode don 😭😂

awkward chaos

Precisely

RD

Star labs probably has several patents that earn them money ..plus he has the hall of justice and several other estates.

RD

I mean Wally's too impulsive imo.. and needed his focus at just being the speedster..Barry only became a leader after gaining a lot of experience.. Iris became the leader because she was trying to live up to what Barry expected of her, and gave up being a reporter to do so. Eventually she came to terms with the fact that being the team leader was NOT her calling and she went back to journalism. At that moment Cisco was busy tryna get Barry Back and Caitlin was busy working with a criminal lmao. It made sense for her to take that mantle.. leaders just need to make tough choices and delegate tasks..even in the real world leaders do that without having the credentials.. in STEM fields.. many project managers are not scientists but still lead the time..and Iris could make tough calls.. she chose to save Caitlin instead of Barry..which was right.. and I don't think she did anything wrong as her time as leader..she delegated tasks to the actual smart people and kept them in check.. she made Wally go through training simulations which was for his betterment and did things that prioritized the city.. the writers added unnecessary drama with that scene in therapy.

RD

I hear it but it just doesn't make any sense. Barry was a leader while being in field as well. Iris could use comms but still just be a team player the leader is forced.

Kaden

actually if you count all the good bus metas you would find out there are in fact 7/12 good bus metas overall counting the metas we havent seen too

Zoom

Iris is in charge because after season 3 Barry was gone, Caitlyn was gone, Cisco and Wally were always the ones in the field so she became team leader

Team Outbreak Paintball

I feel like somethings going to go wrong with the cap. I remember the last time they tried to recreate something that happened that night💀

anime_fx

Don.. Barry is able to fund Star Labs because he inherited Thawne's estate and assets. He makes money from Star Labs' patents for tech sold which lasts years. That's the explanation given as to how Barry is able to fund his operations.

RD

Anyone here want Don to watch the Rookie ?

Jordan

I agree everyone’s saying “stop after 4” or begging for him to carry on and watch 5. At the end of the day it should be dons decision and he should stop when he wants to stop

Angel Griffin

RD yes cecile is way worse than iris and caitlin was character assassinated. the problem is eric wallace

Isaac Brown

He literally did in a YouTube video a couple weeks back I remember it 😆 why would I lie like I heard him say it but okay

CJ

Watching this when I was younger I had a massive crush on iris idk why everyone hates her now 😭

Tavo TS

i dont think he got the inheritance only star labs at least they havent said in the show

Lodzu _

Yeah but did they have an idea of what to do with Caitlin? What development did she have other than just being a doctor and then being replaced by Khione? Or Cisco? He gave up his powers only to get a mecha suit lmaoo..the writers dropped the ball on ALL the character's imo.

RD

he literally never said that

Lodzu _

No it's because Eric Wallace is an awful showrunner lmao. He prioritized Cecile over everyone.

RD

Did you even watch this episode? She literally went back to her career as a journalist realizing it's her calling. Even in real life sometimes PHD's are managed by project managers that are not as qualified.. Being a "leader" sometimes just means being a supervisor.. her telling people what to do IS being a leader.. she delegates the tasks to the people that are smart. I mean she makes good tough calls..esp when she decided to look for Caitlin instead of Barry as he could take care of himself and she was right.. Cisco and Caitlin may be smart but they aren't necessarily good leaders.. initially, Caitlin was busy working with a meta human trafficker and Cisco was busy getting Barry back so Iris HAD to take on the role as team leader.. not saying it was the best writing decision but that does happen in real life so that literally negates your point lmao. Cisco has consistently shown to be hesitant and can't make tough calls. He let's his emotions get the better of him. He couldn't stop Frost because he was afraid of hurting her even though capturing her could've stopped her from aiding Savitar lol. So she became leader because she had to..and eventually she literally limits her involvement in the team to form her media empire..so idk what your point is lol.

RD

well yeah it’s one of the worst episodes of the show. you forget the literal last episode where everyone was screaming peak? that’s why he should stop when he’s not enjoying it and not when people say

Isaac Brown

If you can watch anime fillers you can watch the flash some episodes are great and some are a lil meh but overall I still love the show

Tavo TS

Nah bro she literally doesn’t do shit she just tell people what to do she comes up with no scientific ideas she’s just a “leader” 😂😂😂terrible character writing should’ve kept her as a journalist Wally isn’t even here atm and he’s nerfed in the cw series

ShisuiUchiha480

Any scene iris is in is horrible that’s why she got sidelined

Jamie

Remember back in season 2, when Thawne confessed about killing Barry’s mother? Yeah, he also had a will that let Barry inherit everything. Which included Star Labs, a big mansion somewhere, and of course, a whole lot of money. If you really want to get technical, Barry Allen is a billionaire.

Dhapsody

don looks like he genuinely doesn't want to watch the show anymore he just does it because everyone wants it 😭😭

Creed

Bro all you guys complain about iris too much. Act like a bunch of girls when it comes to her.

Jahad

I think y'all miss the point that Iris wanted to be a journalist, but after losing Barry she figured the best way to honor him would be to protect the city the way he did, so she made herself an integral part of Team Flash and became the leader. Was it the right call? No. And eventually even SHE comes to realize it. Which is why she eventually goes back to journalism, because that is her calling. But her being a team leader..while unnecessary, isn't that far fetched.. ik work forces that sometimes hire project managers who are good at supervising and project management but yet only have surface level scientific knowledge. It's more like a supervisor role. You don't need a PHD to lead a team tbf. She doesn’t need to know how they do what they do, she just needs to keep them on task and motivated...which she does for the most part. I know Run, Iris, Run gets panned a lot, but I thought it did a great job showcasing Iris finally coming to terms with what she wants to do for a career and how she can best contribute to the team. I do have a problem with the consistency of her writing but that issue extends to all the other characters but some of y'all are so blinded by hate that you fail to see things with some nuance imo.

RD

our point is exactly that. She was pushed to the side after making her the boss/leader failed miserably. Mirror arc was a sham to disguise the fact that they had no idea wtf to do with her character.

kudaro

Eh she has annoying moments but a bit overhated imo.. the writing is the issue..all the character's became useless later on.. and have equally as annoying moments.. (spoilers) Caitlin does nothing except cry about Frost and be a doctor fixing scrapes..no development there.. Cisco gives up his powers only to become "mecha vibe".. Barry has no character development and no personal story in the later seasons..the show just becomes The Cecile..imo she was worse than Iris ever was.. the writers not knowing how to develop character's arcs is the issue and they are all equally as useless later on imo.. Caitlin becomes a mad scientist to bring Frost back even tho she knows the risks.. and she was removed from s9 only to be replaced by Khione and then brought back for the finale... the lack of stakes from the villians is another issue..these were the main reasons for the show's drop in quality imo..not Iris..she was barely even in the later seasons and only as an editor in chief/journalist..she wasn't even a part of team flash for most of it..and even then they sidelined her with the mirror arc and the time sickness.. meanwhile we got useless character's like Chillblaine.. Cecile ends up screaming at Barry and Iris for no reason in Armaggedon.. and somehow she's the strongest meta? Joe yells at Barry and Iris to save Thawne even tho that's so out of character..idk

RD

She was barely in the later seasons lmao tf? Cecile and Allegra became the show leads.. tf u on about? Iris was sidelined in the mirror arc and with the time sickness for two seasons straight and wasn't even a part of team flash..she was legit just busy being a journalist lol. Joe yelled at Barry to save Thawne lmao tf..and he was sidelined by Eric Wallace while Cecile got all the screen time..

RD

Bro thank you for hating on iris. She is the most useless and annoying character

Dylan Stam

s5 is better than 4

Isaac Brown

I think you should finish flash all the way

Slayxrss With Legal Aimbot

Idr if they mention the part where he figures out the bus metas later on or not, but yeah he shouldn't have been able to think his way to their names theres missing information. Maybe this is the end of a session where he had also been researching potential candidates and he picked which ones with the thinking cap on. or its just tv and yeah

Justin Telford

imo the last few seasons aren’t great. watched the all except the last season. but if don wants to watch them and likes them then it’s okay

scooter

they are all watchable and i hope he watches them all.

Jesse Cornwell

Bro hates iris

Mario Moreira

season 5 isn’t even that bad, it’s just eh okay good ish. idk it’s been some time. but i do remember that was the last watchable season

scooter

S5 is good don there’s just some bad eps but some real good ones watch for urself n see if u like it

Jamie

The amount of times this show has referenced marvel is like it was setting up a crossover both sides have mentioned each other enough to actually do one

Jamie

💀💀💀💀 best intro ever 💀💀

Jaivon Matthews

Bro iris these seasons is nothing compared to how bad she is in the later seasons she’s so bad then the only people who aren’t stupid later is Barry and joes very one else can’t act or do anything good

Jamie

Not really they Barry doesent exist anymore

Jamie

Don can u post earlier 3am is crazy

Jamie

Season 5 is bad?😂 season 5 has good writing and build up

Charles allen

Dude start the video with elite iris hate

Mario Moreira

I’m going to like this every time I see it 🙌🏽

Dc Jerome

Wally's actor left the show. Also with Iris, they did get her characters right in the later seasons imo. (Spoilers) Her arc with CC Media was great.. but people are too biased to see that she wasn't really annoying in the later seasons. Eric Wallace then ended up getting rid of her character every season for no reason imo.. the same with Caitlin and Frost..their characters went nowhere in the end..and especially Caitlin's growth was stagnant.. Cisco and that whole fiasco with his powers..wtf was up with that? It's not any one character's fault..it's indicative of a bigger writing problem.

RD

Death of vide s5 e3 S5 e8 past is prologue S5 e9 elseworlds part 1 and the rest S5 e 22 S6 e7/8 last temp station of Barry Allen S6 e9 crisis S6 e14 death of the speed force S6e15 the exorcism of Nash wells s7e1 alls wells ends wells S7e2 the speed of thought S81-5 Armageddon S9 e9 my party I’ll die if I want to S9 e 10 full circle episode S9 e13 the finale not good but final episode so worth the reaction Episodes worth watching if u don’t do s5 im only posting this till don sees so he knows what episodes to watch

Jamie

He was in legends tbf he was good in that

Jamie

Not the same for wally, his actor just wanted to do other stuff but he was generous enough to come back for cameos.

B-Rad

Got Tacos over here

Josh W

Don!!!!! BARRY CANT TIME TRAVEL!! The only reason he went to the future in season 3 and talk to himself was to find out who savitar was. Barry had Tracy build the speedforce bazooka early and savitar countered it. Barry talking to himself on how to stop Devoe could change something big plus devoe probably is prepared for something like that

Konner Cragun

Don your right about iris. They tried making her important and it never really worked. Not throughout any of the remaining seasons. Just like Wally, they bring him in for a cameo then he just runs off because they have no fucking idea what to do with his character. Iris is the same.

kudaro

Said he was stopping at this season but he might change his mind

CJ
