11 Reasons To Watch 'The Flash'

Are you itching for a new TV series to watch? Do you like superheroes? Look no further, because "The Flash" on The CW is the show for you. It is packed with action, romance, drama, and comedy, so you'll never get bored. Each episode will leave you wanting to watch the next.

1. Barry Allen, aka The Flash, is played by the amazingly handsome Grant Gustin.

You have seen him in "Glee," on a lifetime movie, and now he is the star of "The Flash."

2. Barry is constantly saving the day.

He speeds around the city saving people from all kinds of dangers. It doesn't matter how big or small the trouble is, he is there.

3. Barry isn't your typical hero.

Barry isn't the typical buff, manly-man, hero. He is quite dorky, nerdy, and has his own quirks about him.

4. The Flash is basically Arrow's BFF.

There are always Arrow references, crossovers, and guest appearances. Barry and Oliver are pretty much in a bromance. So if you love Arrow, you will most definitely love this one.

5. Barry has a sensitive side.

It isn't all saving lives and being famous for Barry. He truly cares about the people in his life and in his community.

6. The team that helps Barry is pretty amazing.

Gaining super speed can be quite a scary thing to process, but Barry has a team of scientists that double as his friends to help him through it.

7. The villains are pretty cool.

Take Grodd for example. He is a super intelligent gorilla that can speak to and control you through mind control.

8. Barry's multiple romances.

Who wouldn't want to date The Flash, or Barry Allen for that matter? He is smart, fast, clever, and oh so charming.

9. The characters know how to have a good time.

Once in a while, the team will leave S.T.A.R Labs to head over to the bars to have a little fun. Viewers can get a laugh out of their adventures as well.

10. The way Barry gains his powers.

Nothing like getting struck by lightning and waking up with super speed.

11. The logo is pretty cool.

What are you waiting for? Go watch it! Barry Allen and the gang await you. The first season is on Netflix!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
