The Flash Season 2: 14 WTF Moments From 'Fast Lane'
13. Iris Back To Being A D*ck?
For long-time DC fans, one of the biggest problems in fact, likely the only real problem of The Flashs first season was the depiction of Iris West. This is a character who is a vital part of Barry Allens life in the comic book realm and even becomes his wife. Throughout the first season of The CWs Scarlet Speedster show, though, Iris was often positioned as a stroppy teenager and was even, dare I say it, essentially The Flashs version of Arrows Laurel Lance in that she was just a bit of a d*ck. Luckily, Iris has improved dramatically with Season 2 well, until she had a little blip in the road here. With Joe doing his best to relate to his recently-discovered son, Iris berates her old man for how hes talking to Wally, not to mention takes some shots at Wally for his speed obsession. Seriously? Joe is a well-meaning guy doing his best to strike up a connection with the troubled son that hes only known for a matter of weeks. Give the guy a break!
