The Flash (1990 series)

[Tim]

I forgot it was a half hour format.

And it was also syndicated, which made it hard to find at times.

It sure was hard to find. 

I also remember the 90s Flash show, that lasted one season, and one, I never saw until The CW aired the new one, and then I went back and found it.

And that is part of CW-Flash canon the series.

I watched the 1990 Flash show when it originally aired.  I liked it. 

The current Flash, Grant Gustin, was born in that year.

That's the one with John Wesley Shipp and Amanda Pays? Oh yeah, I remember this one as well. Sad that it only lasted one season but it was cool .

Yeah, that's the one. 

And this show was folded into the Arrowverse.

Isn't that neat. 24 years was a good gap between this one and the new one. 

Wonder why it only last one season. Had it lasted longer maybe they could have crossed over into Lois and Clark. Or just had them guest star even after their show ended.

I don't think so.  This show was on CBS, while Lois & Clark was on ABC.  Rights issues might have arisen.

Oh yes, that would have been a problem with two different networks. But, if they were on the same network sure.

Nice that they tied this show in with the current Flash.

It was really nice that they did that. Was great.

The CW showed this show respect that CBS never did.

And that makes my head hurt right now by just thinking about it. Though, where's the logic when it comes to several universes.

Time travel and several universes can be a headache. I guess when it comes to comic books shows, you have to forget logic and try and enjoy the ride.

The Earth this show took place on was Earth-90.  For 1990, of course
