Pro Tip

If you're introducing anyone to The Flash and come up on Season 3, just go straight from the Winter finale to the season finale and say Savitar is a Time Remnant Barry then they don't have to waste their time with the majority of the second half of the season.

Even if they undo this in the next episode it doesn't excuse the fact that this was the Supernatural Season-11 Hand of God subplot, but instead of finding out everything was futile at around episode 18 they do it for the penultimate episode.
