Most of the episode consists of him worrying about his father and scaring information out of criminals. In episode five, “Sins of the Father,” he faced off against an escaped criminal out to kill his father. When the show started there were two themes: One, the Flash was a scary mysterious figure like Batman. Watch it and tell me it’s not cool.Ī murderer escapes from prison to find his loot and kill Barry’s father, “the cop who put him away.” Honestly though, years later, whenever I have to do something really fast the theme plays in my head. It perfectly sets up the thrilling superhero show that was supposed to follow.īecause of budget cuts, it didn’t have the chance to live up to the promise. Full of quick cuts and montages of the Flash saving the day. With a score overseen by Danny Elfman, who also wrote the classic Batman (1989) score, it’s exciting and dynamic. Not really a scene, but the most memorable part of the show for me was the opening. Here are ten scenes that proved the show deserved a second season. The show lasted 13 episodes, but couldn’t hold the public’s interest. They hired Emmy award-winning actor John Wesley Shipp as Barry AllenThe Flash, and Amanda Pays as scientist Christina “Tina” McGee. It featured the stylish use of color and murals from Dick Tracy (1990). The costume was created by veteran special effects artist Stan Winston based on the molded muscle and cowl of Batman. In 1990, a year after Batman (1989) revolutionized comic book movies, Danny Bilson and Paul De Meo got together to create a television series based on the superhero.

Over ten years ago, a television show based on the comic book superhero “The Flash” aired. The 90’s television show The Flash is a classic and here are ten good scenes from the fateful show.
