The Flash Season 6 Review: 5 Ups & 2 Downs From 'A Girl Named Sue'

1. Barry Stays In The Background

Ever since returning from its midseason hiatus, The Flash hasn't been in a hurry to put its titular hero in the leading role. That's certainly made for an admirable change of pace because characters like his wife Iris West-Allen and Killer Frost have been at the forefront instead, getting some long overdue chances to shine with increased material.

However, 'A Girl Named Sue' continued this trend and it really highlighted how wearisome it was becoming. Granted, Barry's role in this particular episode was fine, but as it's the third week running that he's been relegated to the tertiary arc (not-to-mention the fact that he once again barely wore The Flash suit), it's hard not to miss him being front and center where he belongs.
