I thought it was funny that they brought Hamil on to play a Joker-like character after he'd been the voice of the Joker for decades, only to discover that he'd also been voicing the Trickster for decades.

I definitely agree about how good his performances are and think he doesn't get enough credit. I also agree that his first go as the Trickster didn't catch me, but for me it was from disliking how different he was from the comic villain (a favorite of mine at that time) and still not being able to stop seeing Luke. But thanks to that performance it opened me up to accepting him as other parts. I also can 't help but see his partner as possibly influencing Harley Quinn's creation, but I might be way off on that.

But these modern performances certainly are more zany and even scary (in a Joker-lite kinda way) and I bet more memorable to fans.

For me, seeing John Wesley Shipp as Jay Garrick was in many ways the best part of the show.

Fun fact: There was one person they considered to voice the Joker in Batman TAS before Mark Hamill. Tim Curry was chosen because of his performance as Pennywise the Clown, but was turned down due to the directors finding his voice as being too scary and not clown enough.

That's awesome of you to do a small recap on various epsiodes of the first three seasons of The Flash, those are probably the best eras of The Flash though Season 3 is pretty debatable in the fandom. Can't say the same about the recent seasons like the second half of Season 6 and Season 7 though, hope the show gets better during Season 8.

Personally, I think next season could be a lot better if they were to use more of Jay Garrick. The last season finale suggested that they might, but I still doubt it.

The one episode where they showed earth 3 Trickster dressed in purple was obviously an attempt from the creators to let Mark play The Joker in live action without having the rights to the character.

Whereas CW Trickster is fun because he's got all his marbles, he's joker crazy aka not really crazy just eccentric. I do like the colorful costumes of the original especially the 2nd one, the first one is just iconic and honestly just pretty disturbing because it's in a mostly realistic show (the 90s show) or at least is treated as such.

Fans praise and talk about the Trickster all the time but rarely (if not never) mentions Prank. She's criminally underrated and deserves more love. I believe she's a better sidekick than Harley Quinn. After the original Flash series ended in 1991, I was hoping Prank would resurface on other media like Harley but never did. Even the Game Boy and Master System games did not feature her; only the Trickster. Prank did appear in the latest Flash series but 27 years was too little too late. What a shame.

I was deeply disappointed Prank did not have enough screen time in Trial of The Trickster. Fans may disagree but I did not like the brainwashing plot of the Flash because she was completely neglected as a result. Maybe that was the charm but I really wanted her to "fire the candles" on the streets and put the city on trial with the Trickster, not Flash. I truly wanted the Bonnie & Clyde/ Joker & Harley moment throughout the episode but it didn't happen; only during the TV station hijack scene which was not enough. If I could remake that episode and change the script exactly the way I wanted it to be, I would.

Question...I never watched the flash show, heardalot of good things and remember watching episodes of the 1990 show my uncle taped when I was like 5 in 1993... But since the original flash actor reprises his role as flash on another earth, how is that same actor playing Henry Allen in 2014 Flash's earth ???

@Joelikesmoviesnstuff

2 жыл бұрын

Hello. First off, actor John Wesley Shipp has now played THREE different characters on the current Flash show: Henry Allen (Barry's Father), Jay Garrick (the Golden Age Flash), and Earth 90 Barry Allen / Flash (the same character of the 1990 TV show)... How is this possible? I'll try to explain: In Season 1, John Wesley Shipp simply played the role of Henry Allen (Barry's father). In Season 2, Barry discovers there are alternate Earths where everybody has a doppelganger (who turns out differently than on Earth 1 - the Earth which Barry is from). Additionally, Barry discovers that his father Henry's mother's maiden name was Garrick. Then at the very end of the season, Barry discovers that his father's doppelganger of Earth 3 is a speedster with a different name: Jay Garrick (so for some reason, on Earth 3, his father's doppelganger took the last name of his mother instead of his father, and was given a different first name). Note: This was a change in story from the comics. In the comics, Henry Allen and Jay Garrick are NOT doppelgangers... Additionally, much later in Season 5, Barry met another speedster named Barry Allen (from Earth 90) who looks exactly like his father (and is the same character of the 1990 show, in continuity with that show). He was referred to as the "Earth 90 Flash." It was never confirmed if this Earth 90 Barry Allen was a doppelganger of Earth 1's Henry Allen, or if the fact that they look the same is simply coincidental... Okay. Did that make any sense?

It actually worked pretty well, and the segue would've been almost flawless except that they had completely redesigned the show from a time-nonspecific look (with '50s-looking cars and buildings and props suggesting various other decades) to a more modern, real-life one at some point between episodes 12 & 22.
