8 Ways To Fix The Flash In Season 4

Let's just come out and say it: The Flash isn't quite what it used to be. Back in season 1, the show quickly rose to be many fans' favourite superhero TV series around due to its sense of fun and wholehearted embrace of comic book goodness. Somewhere along the line since then, however, The Flash has lost its way. Don't get us wrong, there's still much to enjoy about the show, but it is missing the spark that made it truly great in its debut year.

8) Give Us The Rogues

As I said in the introduction, one of The Flash‘s strengths is that its never really shied away from its comic book origins. Over the seasons, we’ve had man-sharks, a city full of telepathic gorillas and other sights you never thought you would see brought to life on screen.

One area of the comic books that The Flash has bungled, though, is the Rogues. In the source material, the Scarlet Speedster’s regular enemies form a team called the Rogues, something that has been a stalwart of the character’s mythos for decades now. While the show has teased the team, and given us supervillain partnerships now and then like Mirror Master and The Top, Weather Wizard and The Trickster and, most notably, Captain Cold and Heatwave, we’ve never got a full-on team-up.

To be three seasons into The Flash and not have had a proper version of the Rogues yet is bizarre, so we can only hope that the team is finally established next season. To be fair, this is something that would be there for the hardcore fans rather than to fix a wider issue with the show, but it would solve something that’s been annoying us for years.
