The Flash: The Complete Third Season [Blu-ray]
Review by Suzanne Lanoue

Warner Bros. Home Entertainment provided me with a free copy
of the DVD I reviewed in this Blog Post. The opinions I
share are my own.
There are a lot of great superhero shows now
on TV, but "The Flash" is my favorite. It has just enough
balance of fun, action and drama. Each year seems to
get even better than the one before.
This year was all about Barry facing the
consequences of his actions. He went back in time and
changed events that affected everyone he knows, and not all
in a good way. This season was about Flashpoint, which
was loosely based on a DC comics series. That series
involved all of the DC comics characters, not just The
Flash. This one just involves "The Flash" and a
little bit of "Arrow."
We already knew that the cast was fantastic,
but they really proved it this season, playing different
versions of themselves (some evil). There was even a
crossover singing episode with Supergirl! I loved it.
I'm glad that it's still going strong, and I can't wait for
Season 4.
You will love this disk set if you love the
show. Not only do you get all of the great episodes, but you
also get a ton of special features, and also a digital copy
of the show. Enjoy!

Struck by the supercharged
fallout of a particle accelerator explosion,
forensic scientist Barry Allen becomes
the fastest man alive:
The Flash!
With his newfound time-warping speed and help from
the S.T.A.R. Labs team –
Caitlin Snow, Cisco Ramon and Harrison Wells – and
his adoptive family, Detective Joe West and Joe’s
daughter Iris, the Scarlet
Speedster runs circles around other metahumans set
on wreaking havoc in Central City, while traveling
between alternate universes and protecting our world
from otherworldly threats. Last
season, new dangers arrived
from a parallel earth known as Earth-2, under
the direction of an evil
speedster named Zoom. In Season
Three, Barry faces the
unknown – as he irrevocably alters
the timeline by saving his mother from
the clutches of
the Reverse-Flash.
The only question now is –
as he wrestles with the
consequences of his own Flashpoint Paradox,
including the wrathful Speed
God Savitar – will he be able to find a way out?
“After three seasons,
The Flash
continues to score in ratings and ranks as
the top series for
The CW,” said Rosemary
Markson, WBHE Senior Vice President, TV Marketing.
"Loaded with both in-depth and exclusive new bonus
content, both fans of the
show and DC fanboys will be eager to add
the Blu-ray or DVD release
to their collections."
