The Flash: 8 Mistakes It Must Fix In Season 3

8. An Inconsistent Season

Season 2 wasn't so much a bad season as it was a wildly inconsistent one. One it was good, it was great, delivering the towering highs of Enter Zoom, which stands as one of best episodes of the series, and the wonderfully whacky Earth-2 two-parter.

On the downside, it also had the show's worst episodes so far: Fast Lane was good, but it's a rose between three thorns, coming during the run of episodes that featured Trajectory, Versus Zoom, and Back To Normal, which was a really weak run.

Then there were some episodes that were just ok, which is more of an issue with these shows struggling to fill their 23-episode run, as filler seems to be often inevitable.

Season 1 had weaker episodes too, but they were mostly early on when the show was finding its feet, and it built some incredible momentum heading into the finale, which is when Season 2 lost quite a bit of it. Going forward it needs a clearer path in place, and to make sure capable of delivering a season that isn't totally uneven.
