I am really confused. I am apparently the only person who didn't know that Barry was going to be The Flash. I knew something was up with the lightning strike of course and then they lit this sit for so long I stopped thinking about it. And then, and I can't remember when, in the middle of Roy going crazy or everyone going after Thea or Sarah dying, all of the sudden there is this strange phone call where Barry asks for advice? And now, in Season 3 episode 8, all of the suddent there's a show preview/trailer where scenes are being reviewed I never sae. If you only watch one of these shows, that is simply too confusing. When did barry call The Arrow? Why would we leave holes in one show if you don't watch the other? I am confused. A little help please? Luckily, I watch tv when I work, so it looks like I will have to get some exercize and watch some Flash to figure this all out. but I shouldn't have to. A show should be self contained, even if there is some crossover story going on. Sigh.
