The Flash: The Elongated Knight Rises (2018)
Season 4, Episode 11
4/10
A mixed bag
20 July 2020
A very divisive episode as far as most of the reviews on here and on other sites seem to present. On the whole far sillier than normal but obviously a nod to fans of the old series which I don't think we had here in the UK, and was plainly more akin to the old Batman TV series than any of the modern DC TV shows. That's fair enough. The whole premise is shaky if you take it too seriously.

My quibble with this episode is a picky one and something most people will not give much of a damn about, but, it is quite irritating to those of us who do care about basic good manners and like our protagonists to exercise them even in an insincere American way.

Neither Cisco or Ralph thanked the girl at the end of the episode for paying for their drinks! I do notice that this sort of thing does happen quite regularly in US TV shows and films but it rather jumps out at me that both these men respond to this girl in a very rude fashion, as if humouring her, rather than acknowledging her act of generosity.
