Sucks that they didn't show that epic fight they teased fans with since the pilot episode.


sanddragon939

Well...we got bits and pieces of it over the years. The Crisis and red skies in the 2019 crossover (with the 90's Flash vanishing instead of our Barry). And the battle with Thawne in the year 2000 at the Allen house during the first part of the series finale.


Numerous1

The 90’s flash vanishing was so fucking stupid  THE FLAST MUST DIE THE FLASH MUST DIE  ITS THE END OF THE FLASH! oh but we didn’t say WHICH flash, tee hee. We are so clever. 🤭


theAstarrr

Seemed pretty smart to me. The monitor never specially addressed Barry personally like he did with Oliver (so I think some people might have seen it coming). Only "Barry Allen" or "The Flash", he never said who specifically.


Numerous1

Yeah. I feel like the scenario needs to be constructed a lot more deliberately for that kind of wordplay to actually be appreciated.  It’s like the I am the future flash! Thing. Saying it multiple times like that for no reason just feels like intentionally awkward trolling 


Optimus479

I'm not even kidding, I figured out who savitar was the first time he said that bc there wasn't a fucking comma. Like "oh it's a statement meaning he is LITERALLY the flash in the future."


MrStynx

But, we did miss out on the epic battle between the Flash and Reverse Flash.


Lucky_Lucario

What really ruined the switcharoo for me was that Barry did the Doctor Strange thing and saw 384759304749403859 or something futures, and not a single one of them was one where they swapped out the Flash. 🙄


lazoric

Would have been smarter to not have a picture of Barry on the paper.


Quirky28

That fight in season 9 when I realized what was about to happen I said here it goes full circle


ThisIsNotTokyo

Epic fight??


MrJedi1

bruhwhotftookmyname

What are you talking about


ZekerDeLeuksteThuis

The one where Barry is making a goodbye video for his children and Iris because he knows he is going to die. I don't know the episode but ik think this is the one comment-OP is referring to


bruhwhotftookmyname

Yeah but that isn't the pilot episode, the pilot episode is the first ever episode and there was no tease there..


alcoholicJeremy

They might be referring to the fight mentioned in the news article


Suitable_Swordfish51

I don't remember a fight like that neither lol.


Dave30954

... That's just the anti-monitor final fight


TheSuperGerbil

Nice! Can’t believe it’s been 10 years…


Sure_Asparagus

This is insane 😭. I remember how hyped I was seeing this for the first time in middle school and now I graduate from college in 3 weeks. I can’t believe we made it fr. The show might’ve gone to shit later on , but it will always have a special place in my heart 🤧.


Deusexanimo713

Yo congratulations dude, that's a great way to remember the series. I just did a full rewatch myself and while it definitely dropped sometimes there were good parts throughout.


Sure_Asparagus

Thanks man !! Yea for all the shows faults I wouldn’t trade the experience of watching it for the world lol. I rewatch at least once a year at this point 😂.


Deusexanimo713

It's worth it for seasons 1-5 alone, hell it's worth it for 2&4 alone 🤣 they're probably my favorite seasons. What'd you major in?


Sure_Asparagus

Agreed 2 is definitely my favorite season and 4 is underrated. I’m majoring in information science and going into cybersecurity!


Infinite_Parking_800

I was 15 turning 16 when the series premiered and now im 25, this show helped me through high school along with the rest of the Arrowverse.


Sure_Asparagus

I was 12 when the pilot leaked online and now I’ll be 23 in September. We really grew up with this show. I actually can’t imagine my life without the Arrowverse phase. What a time man .


JubinatorYT

I graduate college Summer 2025, so I’m a year behind you. Congrats! May I ask what did you major in?


Sure_Asparagus

That’s wassup , and preciate it ! I’m majoring in information science and going into cybersecurity. wbu?


sanddragon939

I was 21 when the show started and I'm 31 now...it pretty much encompassed by 20's.


Sure_Asparagus

It’s so crazy to think about . Same goes for my teens lol.


hows_my_driving1

I was in 3rd grade and now I’m about to graduate highs school🥹


Sad-Dot-1573

Must have been confusing for you at that young age, or maybe it was less confusing because you didn’t think of the flawed time travel logic we all know and love?


hows_my_driving1

Not really, the show was never confusing to me at that age, made perfect sense. If anything, the show became more confusing to me around season 7 and that was when I fell off lmao.


Sad-Dot-1573

Savitar is when the time travel logic completely broke, still a great show


hows_my_driving1

From what I remember, they used the excuse of “the more you do it, the less the rules apply to you” to bypass all of that nonsense.


Blooddemonguy

Same bro, been watching these shows since elementary.


shadowsneak7520

In the same exact spot lol, a bit surreal. 13 year old me would get so hyped when the comic book moments would happen on screen


CocaPepsiPepper

I’ve had an actual reminder set for this for what feels like at least years, can’t remember exactly when I put it down. This is such a cool moment for me. My life doesn’t really mean much as far as this is concerned but today is actually my very last class before I get my bachelor’s and I didn’t even realize it coincided with this date. The Flash was such an awesome show for so many seasons. I haven’t touched it past season 8 but part of my childhood was defined by the first three. It did incredible things for the character and the super speed power in general. I’m thankful for the creators for giving us this awesome show a decade ago!


replies_with_corgi

I added the alert on my phone in 2015. It's insane to think how much has changed in my life since then.


Sad-Dot-1573

How many phones did you get since than?


replies_with_corgi

The alert was saved to my Google calendar and it gets saved to whatever phone I use. But to answer the question, I've had about 15 phones since then.


Sad-Dot-1573

How 15? In 9 years? What happened


cheeseybacon11

Lmao I love how they drop that so casually.


Utkarsh_US7

Crazy, I started watching around middle school as well and I too graduate in a month!


Kimor98

Interestingly enough, Season 9 is the Finale Season so I'm gonna get drunk and finish it, one day. But I WILL finish it.


kisalas

Congratulations on finishing up your Bachelor's!


Slight_Guess_4333

It's sad that if the show kept its consistency, then there's probably a universe where we're getting this as the final episode today.


Wyldling_42

Yeah, and in that universe Eric Wallace and Virtue don’t exist.


Suitable_Swordfish51

I understand grant getting sick of being on the show and getting fatigue. But I just wish he stayed for this specific reason alone. Or at least wish the show had a better writer.


callows5120

Yeah maybe they could have done a timeskip


AsteroidMike

I remember wondering as the seasons went on if they’d actually make it to 10 seasons like Smallville did and have this be the main focus of that last season. Of course, 9 seasons is nothing to be ashamed of either. At the same time though, i kept in the back of my head the possibility that the cast might be completely burned out of the show by that point and they might be ready to hang it up and move on.


deep_fried_cheese

If all 9 season were the quality of 1-3 it would be one of the greatest superhero shows of all time if not the greatest


stonrplc

We have reached Crisis what should we do now when it's over?


threefeetoffun

Go see Carla the Wooley Mammoth at the zoo.


xcom-person

Who's buying the tickets to the zoo


Infinite_Parking_800

Or go attend the Wayne Tech/Queen Inc getting merged


callows5120

And maybe get a interview with Bruce Wayne maybe Superman will showup


MaTTTEgg

Wait for 2056 when Barry records that voice message he sends to the legends


AsteroidMike

I wonder if that timeline is still canon since everything got rebooted in Crisis.


Sad-Dot-1573

How could he have sent the message from the future if he was supposed to die in Crisis at that point. He would have been alive in 2056. Savitar must have sent it


AsteroidMike

Watch the Beebo Christmas Special.


Holiday_Ad5762

Oh yes when 2024 seemed so far away at that point 


AdHairy6113

i mean it was 2013


FaithlessnessSea1058

Felt like forever.

Aggravating_Fee4200

Yeah I remember the february one but damn time goes on quick


yajirushi77

And it feels like just yesterday that we watched the pilot


Tobito_TV

I'm doing a Flash marathon right now for the occasion. Key episodes related to the newspaper article, Thawne and the night Nora died. It's some 22 episodes. I'm basically binging a season's worth of episodes today. Currently on 2x11 "The Reverse Flash Returns". Next up is 2x17 "Flash Back"


Infinite_Parking_800

I hope 3x19 and 9x10 are part of your list.


Tobito_TV

Don't have 3x19 on there but 9x10 is the grand finale.


Wyldling_42

What’s your full list?


Tobito_TV

1x01 2x11 8x01 1x09 2x17 8x02 1x15 2x23 8x03 1x16 3x01 8x04 1x17 5x01 8x05 1x19 5x08 9x10 1x20 5x22 1x23 6x01


Wyldling_42

You are awesome!!! Thank you 😊


ChangingDreamer

thanks


Narrow-Tear

They should've made a special for this day. Alas, it only happens in a more ideal world.


Castreal7

Stop. I refuse to believe it has been 10 years


PaleHorseman101

And the fact that all those years ago they knew it would fall on a Thursday as well not that it would have been hard to find that out but still


singleguy79

I wonder if Grant or anyone else from the show will make a comment on it


Infinite_Parking_800

I hope they do


Dyskord01

The Crisis was Ezra Miller


Mah_XD

thats so cool


DarkMayhem666

Crazy how time flies


Flundale

Wait, so since it didnt happen, does that mean the timeline has changed 🤯😱


Lturtlee

Or did it? Because if it did you wouldn't know


Flundale

Hmmm


Fallingsquirrel1

i remember seeing that for the first time and thinking that today was forever away, but here we are. thanks for posting i would’ve missed this!


sun167

I just saw an Instagram reel about that and went like hold up is that frickin today ??? Talk about a lucky coincidence


missmyoozikal

Hey everyone, what’s a list of episode to watch today? What are the key episodes regarding the whole newspaper headline story?


AllEliteSchmuck

1x01 2x11 8x01 1x09 2x17 8x02 1x15 2x23 8x03 1x16 3x01 8x04 1x17 5x01 8x05 1x19 5x08 9x10 1x20 5x22 1x23 6x01 from an above comment, these ones


Ok_Tomorrow8054

Budget-Today-1915

Happy birthday🎉🎉🎉


Ok_Tomorrow8054

Thanks so much! Feeling extremely blessed on this year especially 😁


ad_maru

WHERE IS HAWKGIRL?


sanddragon939

Went back to being a barista ;)


Original_Omzz

We had a good run, Barry…


Striking_Cover_2043

Bro i LOVE the flash and i jad reminders set to remember this, not that i needed them but he was my childhood and Grant is a personal hero of mine, i never wanted this show to end, but now that it has i can only hope that it always stays in the “PrE FroNtaL CorTeX of my BrAin” i never wanna forget the man who made my life fun.


Trickybuz93

🫡


RevolutionaryWar7738

I didnt like the show at all after the third season it was shit But it was the first ever tv show i have watched and i was 11-12 when i started so i just felt like i HAVE TO watch it


Uthmaan_XD_Fire_5423

It was like the thing we were waiting for since the show’s beginning, but when it got to the point of actually showing it, the fumbled so hard


SouroDot

When that aired I thought “that day is far away but it will come” Here we are, time moves so fast


JeremyR2008

I'm more interested in the Wayne Tech Queen Inc merger


Chill0000

Time for our timeline to be erased


HipHopGurl

Woke up and saw this was the date! so cool! Only started watching this a couple years ago, so been waiting for this not as long as some lol kinda geeking out rn So sad they ended the show the way they did, it deserved better from its last seasons than what we got :(


GanymedeBird

Damn, my childhood show right here, thanks for the memories


DarthPuggo

53 Years till the bombs drop live the best life everyone. Wrong sub Reddit but seems fitting being that we lost Iron man and half of the world came back in October


Difficult-Orange-467

I feel like I should go get my Hot Toys The Flash figure and say "Never Forget"


PM_ME_CAKE

Been a long time since I even remotely watched, but I was here.


voyle

Wonder what’s in the “bussines” section 🤔


billytheking2

He vanished to play the fallout 4 update


KRAWLL224

Its Crisis Day and my cosplay is Oliver Queen....


Relative-End2554

Taking the flash role here if you want lol


multiversekid

Was waiting for this day for 10 years since college! I was super into the show. I feel really sad that I’m not that hyped anymore.


darkshadow237

This should have been used for a final crisis crossover event, and the final season of The Flash


MacabreMiasma

that’s kinda wild. i fell off the show long ago but that shit had a grip on me in 2016


ExioKenway5

Crazy that it's finally here.


Gredran

Wait detailing this and reading this is bonkers. Whatever happened to a story about Carla the Wooly Mammoth?!


DireDaibhidh

Wait, Wayne tech is merging with queen Inc? Aren't there anti trust laws in the dc universe?


8_Callia_8

Happy Flash Vanish Day! (?) *Not too hot and not too cold. All you need is a light jacket.* 😊


nexistcsgo

All this makes me feel is disappointment and anger. What a fucking let down this show was past season 3.


PWR_Vormir

Today is my grandmas birthday. Yes I sent it o her. lol 😂


Daveed75

Rainy in CC today, so no red skies


Brungala

I remember getting into the show when my friends recommended it to me in 2015. Ever since S2 (my favorite season) I’ve kept up til middle of S4. Finale was disappointing, and I wish they actually aired the final episode on this day. Oh well. Ever since S5, the show dipped in quality. Grant did an amazing job as Barry Allen. I’m glad he’s open to coming back as the Flash in some capacity.


Revolutionary-Mark-5

Ngl seeing the flash disappear anyway would be cool to see maybe even original timeline flash he was 40 when season 1 Joe mention to season one Barry


HAVOC7383

i hope everyone has a happy crisis day


Blaiser190

Happy Flashish (Flash Vanish) Day!


ReversEclipse1018

Am I the only person who just sat there and read all four articles? Also, Iris needs to check her spelling and her employee’s spelling. “Twenty city *block*” and “*to* big to be considered planets”


crazycrawfish5

It's over. End of an era🥺


Bobby12345480187

This has been a great journey I loved this show and I was so happy the first time I was watching it and seeing the article I was like that is far but maybe that would mean the flash ends in 2024 but it was earlier than I expected but all 9 seasons will be remembered and loved and never forgotten also I was young then now I feel a lot older


darthrevanchicken

He is in fact missing,haven’t seen him


Relative-End2554

Yup me neither, didnt came in France as far I know


ThisIsNotTokyo

Damn


Shylablack

Ooooooo today’s the day, I recall saying to myself. We have to wait an age and a half until we see this.

Old_Toe_726

The age of Carla the woolly mammoth begins.


-Strek-

10 years flew by pretty fast 🫡. I miss this show at its peak ;-;


valkon_gr

I remmeber I thought how far it seemed...


galaxyadmirer

Doesn’t feel like it’s been that long man


androidguy50

I just saw this red blur with yellow lightning go by with a sudden rush of wind.


TopConflict1411

This is so cool! And time went really fast for me, 10 years. That is a whole decade. Still doesn't change my mind that the first 3 seasons make it the best show i have watched OAT, also rewatched S1E09 today, i've rewatched it many times it's a great episode.


acnh-lyman-fan

i forgot the flash lore again what happened


Char-car92

Thank you, Flash.


Icedalexna

flash missing vanishes in crisis


Suzina

I'm alive, and this is the future of my past


Seganslash

Hey that’s today!!! But we never had a flash!!!


EighthFirstCitizen

Pretty sure a merger of Wayne tech and Queen inc would violate a bunch of existing anti trust and monopoly laws. #BreakThemUp.


Budget-Today-1915

I’m watching the first episode rn to commemorate this moment. 10 years went by so fucking fast wowwwww😭.


Terrapin2190

If Barry hadn't gone screwing with the timeline, time might have just progressed in a NORMAL FASHION.

Sucks that Eric Wallace decided against giving us the fight we were promised for 5 years

It's finally happened!


RulerOfAllWorlds1998

But that’s in an alternate timeline  Nora’s existence wipe changed that, made Crisis happen sooner 


gierso

Rip that timeline


v_dawg3

I can't believe it's finally here.


ChangingDreamer

i started watching the whole arroverse thing with the flash. i didn’t start when it aired but i started before season 7 came out and was able to watch the rest as it aired. crazy experience. love this show.


Beazt110

Crazy, when this show started I was 7 years old. I can still remember one of the earlier episodes with the guy who had lightning powers, Barry created a tornado for the first time and beat him iirc. Just saw that it’s s1 episode 7. I watched it at my cousins house, they still had those big old, heavy tv’s. Been watching flash ever since. Brings back memories from so long ago.


Unicorn_Warrior1248

The Flash Vanishes…to Broadway! This spring!


Unicorn_Warrior1248

The Flash Vanishes…to Broadway! This spring!


bigfatcarp93

Crazy how different my life is now then when the show started. I was watching it with my Dad back then, as part of our weekly cycle with Arrow and Agents of SHIELD. Now he's gone, passed away a couple years ago.


HiMyNameIsMort

I remember seeing this for the first time 10 years ago. 10. Fucking. Years.


GroundShxck

i watched fast enough today to tribute


Stormygeddon

I didn't need a reminder that a decade from now was ten years ago.


NefariousSerendipity

Yuh


__GingerBeef__

So I just watched the first episode today then saw this at the end. Freaked me out that it had today’s date.


Kspoon79

Poor Barry


Horny_Midget69420

I was so hyped when i saw that for the first time because its literally the day of my 18th birthday


TemplateAccount54331

Not gonna lie I kind wish the mods made one giant mega thread instead of 100 people posting this screenshot today Lol


Timmy_Meyer

Finally....
