Cecile character was annoying. 1 if the reasons I stopped watching the show

[@Dearevanhansen223]

Cecile was so awful that she made the fandom stop hating Iris, and start hating her. Do you know how terrible your character has to be to make the fans forget “We are the flash”?

[@tombstonerforever9374]

See, for the “We are the Flash” line, Iris was trying to say that Barry isn’t doing it on his own. She’ll be there for him. Instead, it made it seem like she does the same stuff that he does.

[@Dearevanhansen223]

@@tombstonerforever9374 you mean like when she tried to be the leader of the flash team despite having two scientists who can figure out how to stop them, three metahumans, and a lead detective. She tends to be incredibly selfish and narcissistic such as getting upset with Barry for sending Nora back despite her working with Thawne. Makes him feel like garbage despite knowing what he’s been through and she hasn’t had nearly any struggles in life. She’s not a good character my dude. You can’t blame fans for hating her. And I used that example because it’s common. People use it out of context but it does sum up how terrible her character is

[@tombstonerforever9374]

@@Dearevanhansen223 I agree. But it didn’t stop there. The argument that she had with Barry in season 5 was the worst of Iris. Ironically since Barry was in the wrong in the argument, Iris just went too far in the argument: bringing up his past, saying how things are always his fault and literally telling Barry that she doesn’t care that Nora was working the guy that murdered Barry’s mother.

[@Dearevanhansen223]

@@tombstonerforever9374 and when he said “maybe if he had killed your mother you’d understand”. I was like…yeah. She’s always been incredibly selfish. Thea accepted and hugged Oliver when she found out he’d been lying about being a hero and saving lives instead of doing what iris did which was cry, complain, and belittle everyone in her life. She’s been annoying since season one. Her reasons for being an awful character are different each season but she’s never been a good character. Having good elements and aspects doesn’t make it good. Just cause I have the incredible for a pizza doesn’t mean I’m not gonna char the hell out of it

I agree with your opinion about Iris. I think most people's hate on her is excessive. Hell, I saw most Chinese audiences who hate her so much that they even start to despise Candice Patton, who plays her, calling her to be the one who single-handedly ruined the show by buying her way into the crew and forcing changes in the writing, but I don't think that's the case. I think Candice is just an actress working with the material she was provided with and she's doing a good job in it.

And their reason is coz of their blind comic book traditions coz they did not get oliver-laurel. Iris has been a boring character most of the show with little storylines. but she gets support from her "black" community and the comic book fans. Yet felicity after s4 has had great development with good storylines and yet she still gets blind hate. felicity did not give cringe lines like "we are green arrow". unlike iris felicity had separate story arcs when oliver was in jail.

Something that added even more to Ralph’s character that I don’t see a lot of people realize is Ralph died in the particle accelerator explosion in the original time line and then was brought back after flash point

[@ordinary6]

The problem with the flash is the episode count. Most of the new cast members were only created to fill the runtime so if the seasons where around 16 episodes each there would be less new main characters to introduce. Cecil would have only been important in season 4 coz of the thinker and her powers would vanish after giving birth. Other characters' storylines would have been simplified like Caitlin

[@samuelketner1391]

This is not true anymore. Season 9 had 13 episodes and you could argue a majority of it was filler and none of the main arcs were fleshed out. Looking for a non cw example? Mandalorian season 3. 8 episodes, and i would say 5-6 were filler. This proves the filler episodes will ALWAYS happen regardless.

[@ordinary6]

@@samuelketner1391 I didn't mean filler episodes. What I meant was, if a season long story can be told in 16 episodes but the season has 23 episodes, a new character is created to create a new arc to reach the target 23. This new character then becomes a waste of time and a problem later on. Eg, Caitlin needed something to do so Killer Frost became a separate character, because KF stayed, chill bane and Khione were created and now all three suck. Domino effect. Season 9 is just the by product of previous seasons having too many episodes.

[@Savataric]

facts and cecile was fine til S7 and all the new team flash characters couldve been good if they just stick with what they had in the beginning when we met them, Allegra was fine in S6 and they couldve expanded more and just stuck her with Iris for the CC Citizen all the time unless her story interwined with Team Flash, Chester just make him a recurring character and less like cisco

I have such a good time when he's on screen and being his Cisco self.

[@fishlaurence-burne7450]

I agree that killer frost should never have been seperate from caitlin or changed her origin. The idea of caitlin becoming killer frost due to barry messing with the timeline is more compelling than her being born with it. However, i like the fact that she became a hero, i just hoped she'd be more like an anti hero, and the team constantly has to stop her from killing her enemies.

[@GameZone-ib7eu]

I think they should’ve learned something from Arrow. Oliver and Slade were best friends on the island but became mortal enemies. And then Slade got redemption. I think Caitlin should’ve been the main villain of season 3. Remember that Killer Frost episode. It was so personal to Barry and it was great. And it would’ve helped the show too by having a great villain who is not a speedster. Because 3 speedster villains in a row was a problem. Then they could’ve had Savitar as the main villain in season 4 and in that there could be a few scenes with Caitlin locked in prison or something throughout that she goes through a season long redemption story and finally rejoins Team Flash at the end of season 4 or beginning of season 5. This idea had so much potential.

[@choco.munchiez]

i honestly hate the whole on concept of "team flash" bec barry relies on the SO MUCH to point they literally have to tell him what to do all the time n can't think for himself. it's annoying bec in the comics barry is on of the smartest characters in the dc universe so his little sidekicks telling him things that are either common sense or things he can figure out on his own is frustrating

Also, one of the biggest problems w the flash is that so many characters never have anything to do for the entire season and no one ever really gets killed off after S3 so they all just stock up. The flash should’ve stuck with the system of killing off a main character each season. And they also needed to stop introducing all those damn Wells’. I got so tired of them after S3.

Tbh I didnt like Chester at first but now I get why he is here. He is Cisco's replacement so I understand. What I dont understand is how Joe's girlfriend had more screen time than him!!!

[@pauloarthur._]

I would love to see an updated vídeo of all the heroes that have appeared in the arrowverse now that has ended

[@joeking3860]

My problem with Cecile is that she never took over for Joe as this rock the team really needed. I thought they were going to position her as this new Joe, where the sweet heartfelt moments would come from. Boy was I fucking wrong

[@TheHaas123]

I would say Harry should be higher. Nora should be lower. HR should be higher. (He was better than sherloque imo) Wally is too high imo. Overall very solid list. Love the respect for ralph!

Great video as always (especially about Cecile and Chill Blain)

[@EH_Editz67]

So sad that Jessie quick and Jay garrick wasn't on this list

[@evkettel1949]

Joe West from S1-S3 is the best character in the show. Change my mind.

[@TylerTheLoser_]

I'm so dissappointed that Caitlin didn't become something more like a recurring villian for The Flash. Having a character start on the good guys' team then awaken to her powers that drive her against them for the rest of the show would've been so awesome. They could have even done something similar to what they did w/ Capt. Cold where her powers slow down Barry when he's nearby to possibly elevate her to main villian status.

[@featherguardian6023]

My Rankings on the Flash Main Cast from Worst to Best: 19.Cecile Horton/Virtue:Easy the Worst Character in the Flash that got Worse each Season and made Eric Wallace In Love with the Actress in a Unhealthy Simp Level. 18.Khione:the Worst New Addition to the Series when it was Going to End which Bastardized Sky High and the Caitlin Character while Solving Every Problem than the Main Character,like Cecile She’s literally Plot Armor on Drugs. 17.Chillblame:I Describe Him as the Anti Ralph that Eric Wallace tried to duplicate but like him Redeeming Villains it got Worse and is no Coincidence that he Debuted on Season 7 when they Fired Hartley Sawyer. 16.Allegra Garcia:No Disrespect to the Actress but the Only Reason Why this Character Was in the series is because Eric wanted to leave a Permanent Mark to the Only Character He’s Involved in the Comics but in the End She’s as Useless as Kamila,Ultraviolet is way Better. 15.Chester P. Runk:an interesting Character and the least Hated of Eric’s but him being a Cisco Clone,his Echoing Sounds,and wasting his Black Hole Powers made him Weak and Pointless. 14.Nora West-Allen/XS:I Never had a Huge Hatred on a Character in this Series other than the Ones that Eric Wallace brought than Nora,the Entice of Retconning the Tornado Twins,is so Immature when she’s a Freaking Adult,and one Exist as a Wally Replacement on Season 4. 13.HR Wells:the Worst and most Annoying one of All the Wells. 12.Nash Wells:Interesting but after the Crisis the Character became so Unlikable. 11.Caitlin Snow: I Know she’s one of the OG’s but she was Wasted on making her a Villain or at least giving her a Happy Ending with Ronnie and Leaving the Show that to be the most Tortured Character in the Flash. 10.Killer Frost:I Actually like the Idea on this Character and I wish that She Survived and Caitlin didn’t to grow the Character,bring a Emotional Impact,and leave the Series than doing the Opposite while creating Khione. 9.Iris West:I Don’t hate the Character except Seasons 4 and 5 but she was so misused and could have been a Independent Character than making Barry making Questionable Choices. 8.Sherluke…. I mean Sherloque Wells:a Really Underrated Character that was Done Dirty by the Team and wasted Ralph Potential as a Detective. 7.Eddie Thawne:a Really Solid and Underrated Character that’s a Nice Guy you Can’t Hate but the Finale made it Difficult. 6.Wally West/Kid Flash: A Character with Tons of Potential but they wasted the Idea of making his Savitar and Him Leaving the Series on Season 4 was a Mistake and a Huge Middle Finger. 5.Joe West: a Great Father and Mentor Figure that being Heart and Emotional Moments,I Wish I Wish Season 7 and 8 and Cecile didn’t butchered his Character. 4.Harry Wells:Hands Down the Best of all of the Wells and the True One than whatever Timeless Wells was. 3.Cisco Ramon/Vibe:A Great Fun Character that’s the Fan in All of Us can Relate,I do wish he was with Liza Snart and kept his Vibe Power that the Direction it got. 2.Ralph Dibny/Elongated Man:the Best Supporting Cast than Everyone in my Opinion,has the Best Redemption Arc,is Funny,and has amazing Power,I Wish they didn’t fired the Actor all because of a 10 Year Old Tweet. 1.Barry Allen/the Flash:Easily Number 1,While not the Definitive Flash in my Opinion as not Live Action Version is Accurate unlike the Animated Movies,Grant Gustin is a Fantastic Actor that Brought a Emotional Inpact and changed the Character Forever,Yes he acts Dumb,not Overpowered,and acts on his Emotions,The Main Character Wins this Spot.

[@malikpierre-louis3343]

For number 1 you mean repeats the same mistakes over and over again and almost never learns right.

[@Bloolouth]

Now I'm interested how the side characters fall on the rank like snart jay Julian Jessie patty Bart Henry etc.

[@keplerthe3399]

I think i slowly came to a stop with this show around when the Thinker came around. Pretty sure thats when team flash started, and it got more cheesy and phoney from there on, and it ended that way to. I loved the show early on and enjoyed Tom Cavanah's performance all throughout, since i would watch clips of his characters after i stopped.

[@Savataric]

For me i slowly started to hate the show in S8 as I just wanted it to be good

[@sepp4815]

I wish we got to see S3 Ending Catlin, who said that she isn't Killer Frost or Catlin, what could have been interesting but they retconed it in the next season. It's a shame I always wanted to see Frost (Meta Catlin) and what she would do with her new powers and life and not the return of Killerfrost, really missed oportunity.

[@francescozenocchini4428]

I think H.R Wells is the best of the Harrison Wells. Cisco/Vibe is my favorite character and is a shame that thw showrunners remove him from the show and difn't let him comeback in the finale. Elongated Ma is another character that i love. If wasn't for the stupidity of the CW to fured him i would like to see an Elongated Man tv series about metahuman investigations.

[@bob031]

fr cisco was an amazing actor

[@prismknight353]

Flash being the best character is ironically the worst thing ever

[@deveshjha4728]

Cecile was I'm gonna say fine and good till S4 ending... after that she should have continued her role as DA and help flash regarding those affairs rather than being a main character in the later seasons of 8 and 9

[@blu-steel22shorts71]

Bro, dont do my boy hr like that, he brought good humor proving that not every wells was dead serious like harry he was special in his own way i personnaly liked his caracter

[@starcup08]

During season 4 Wally was part of the legends of tomorrow in legends season 3

[@IroncraftergamerMc]

I love this ranking except for one placement. HR Wells, was great and I'm tired of pretending he wasn't.

[@aetriandimitri190]

Ralph being number 3 shows just how bad of an idea it was to fire him. Especially when the entire point of his character was redeeming a terrible person, and yet they fire him for shock humor jokes a decade prior when he had already redeemed himself to be amazing, the jokes weren't even bad for their time as it was just the typical "dishwasher didn't work so I beat her" tier humor that was common and wasn't even as bad as those. It especially sucks since it completely ended his career, he hasn't made any appearance or had roles since, which sucks because he was such a good actor

[@junionolet9912]

You really did HR like that

[@ReligiousPrime]

Out of the control of the writers? Um... they're the writers... they literally control everything in the show...

[@_BarryEdits]

There is no possible way that iris is better than HR

[@KopeMusic079]

I think Frost being a split personality could have worked if they didn’t make her a hero. Like make Caitlin struggle with Killer Frost taking over and acting like a villain a few times, then they can split the two like they did in season 7 and bring Killer Frost back as a recurring villain and maybe even a main villain.

[@kairasendo1175]

The only characters I disagree with here are Frost and HR. HR is my personal favourite of the wells and both of his deaths were the only time I cried during this show… well except for stein’s death in Earth X, that one genuinely shattered me for a few hours. I like frost, she was never a favourite and definitely got worse each season, but I do kinda like her being a separate personality. Would I have liked if she was more wild card than she was? Absolutely.

[@Silencerz777]

Cecile might be the worst character in the flash but she is a BADDIE

[@TabalugaDragon]

I disagree with some of the ratings here. I thought Chester was okay, I met guys like him in real life and he at least has a backstory episode which is also a time travel episode, I liked it. Doesn't hold a candle to Cisco but he was fine. Khione was kind of interesting, at least she felt like a fresh, unusual character. Not something I've seen before. Allegra and Cecile are by far the worst. Allegra literally has no character. She doesn't feel like a real person at all. And Cecile is just irritating - what's what invasion of privacy all the time? If she did that to me I'd be like "hey stay away from me, my emotions are private". Usually in movies villains do that, but in here she's supposed to be a hero for invading everyone's privacy without permission? She could be perfect as a psychiatrist, instead, she invades privacy of the main characters.

[@mrsurge4789]

I don’t think you’re in the minority when it comes to not hating Iris. If anything, the real minority is the vocal minority who hated her for her characterisation in Seasons 4 and 5 and never let go of it or remembered her from the earlier seasons

[@Just_Kanji]

The only reason I like Allegra, Cecile, and Chester is because they’re so awful that they took off all the pressure of being the worst character ever off of Candice Patton. In season 3 and 4 she was the worst and in season 5 she was second worst right behind Nora.

[@noyou2020]

Besides eric wallace how many allegra and cecil fans are there actually? Also I agree that it is ironic that Ralphs introduction is a redemption arc, but then the show can't look past his old tweets. Last thought Barry and Iris both might have been better characters if in the end there weren't half dozen characters calling them "Mom and Dad"

[@aetriandimitri190]

Especially when those tweets weren't even bad, just shock humor that were obviously meant to be jokes. And in interviews and everything could clearly see he's not like that. It'd be fine if it didn't mean his career was over, 0 new roles or public appearances, we lost an amazing actor that could've become someone great over fking shock humor jokes

[@JustDoingReviews]

Despite you not liking H.R I loved him and thought he was a nice fun character.

[@arjuntekade3912]

Honestly cecile just as an ordinary DA was good but when she got powers her character died 💯

[@CloneCommanderQutibahAlFarouqi]

The Flash (TV Series) is parody of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic

[@JustDoingReviews]

Question why is Julian, Ronnie, and Jessie Quick not on the list. Or Jay because he kinda was a main character before he was revealed to be Zoom

[@slj3332]

Nora is 28yrs old. As she tells barry and iris in season six. That she's twenty eight years old but she's an annoying character. I disagree on the part with hr wells. They had interesting Concept with him as a man trying to find his place in the world and some kind of redemption. The problem is they don't really tell us what he's trying to get redeemed from. And in some weird way he became sort of the morality of the group.

[@HELLO_KORO]
