Seriously, they had almost a year to think about how to get back into all of this and conclude last season's story and this is what they came up with? I can't say I'm surprised, but Jesus tap-dancing Christ; this is what we got? This has to be the most anticlimactic climax of a superhero showdown since Clark hugged Doomsday into submission on Smallville...
For starters, why did this take three episodes to wrap up? Was that absolutely necessary? They couldn't have combined some of this shit into a single season premiere, maybe an extra long 1 1/2 hour episode or a two part opener? We had to dick around with the Wells in the first episode back, then do an entire fucking episode centered around Barry putting his head up his own ass? Because six seasons of doing either of those things hasn't been enough, I guess. And to top it off, all it takes to get through to.... checks notes (sigh) Mirror Monarch.... is basically holding hands and singing Kumbaya.... Sure, why not. I suppose that beats the hell out of the actress playing Eva trying to emote and just looking severely constipated.
And then just like that, all the problems are over; all of the mirror doubles are gone, everyone's back; Wells apparently managed to put right what once went wrong, allowing him to leap.
Boy did they phone it in getting rid of Ralph though. Of all the innovative ways I saw people talk about how they could have handled that, the writers apparently decided they really liked the way they wrote off David Yost's character of Billy from Might Morphin Power Rangers and wanted to see if they could write something even worse. Speaking of Power Rangers, evidently when Iris..... (sigh) powered up the organic speed force.... it looks like she was also summoning a team of teenagers with attitudes. Because Team Flash can't actually do anything that's not going to come back to screw them later...
