Good: Iris’ Increased Role
One of the worst decisions the series made in season one was keeping Iris in the dark about Barry being The Flash, especially when he seemed so loose-lipped about his alter-ego to just about everyone else he came in contact with.
Her inclusion this year, particularly in the back half of the season, was clear proof as to why Candice Patton is such an asset to the show. Iris and her relationships with Wally, her dad, Barry and even her back and forth with Cisco bring out the best in those characters and we hope that the writers give her even more to do in season 3.
Good: Cisco
Carlos Valdes became the genuine breakout actor of the show last year by bringing both humor and pathos to his role, which only continued to grow consistently this year. As his powers became stronger and he learned both how to accept being Vibe and the fact that he was a Metahuman, he began to take control of his abilities, which led to some fantastic moments that stole the show almost every week.
