Grant Gustin’s reveal at the recent PaleyFest panel (via TVLine) that he actually frequently agrees with fans’ frustrations at least proves that one of the folks working on The Flash is aware of how Barry’s actions are being received by viewers.
Unfortunately for fans, Barry has the habit of making decisions that turn his good intentions into huge mistakes, and he doesn’t always learn from those mistakes.
If he did, he might not be having such a hard time with his third speedster supervillain in as many years.
Barry Allen is one of those characters who always has the best intentions, and he tends to have a more upbeat outlook on the superhero lifestyle than most of his pals over on Arrow.
