The Flash Season 6 Finale Review: 5 Ups & 3 Downs From 'Success Is Assured'

1. Not The Ending It Deserved

We already talked a little bit about how The Flash's sixth season was something of a rejuvenation for the show, and it really is true. While it has always made for an enjoyable hour of television, there was a considerable decline in quality over the past two seasons that prevented it from reaching the heights that it once did. That, however, feels like a distant memory thanks to Season 6.

With that in mind, you'll probably understand why so many of us wanted that little bit more from the finale of this great comeback season. Again, don't get this writer wrong, there was nothing wrong with the episode and it actually ended up working as a finale when it shouldn't have (and we'll get to that shortly), but it would have been nice to see where the original finale would have taken the characters.

There's no blame game here because, again, this is nobody's fault - just a simple fact that the season never got to fully explore the storylines it had set up.

Now, for the positives...
