Thanks for the recommendations. Based on the comments in this thread, I decided to watch the first season of the new Flash. Although it doesn't hold a candle to L&C, it is a fun show.

I think my favourite lines were those leading up to the show's first appearance of Ray Palmer. (I don't want to be more specific here, lest I spoil the fun of of anyone who reads this thread and then watches the shows.)

And given the end-of-season cliffhanger, I am very much looking forward to the second season. And I was delighted to learn, upon a little Google-ing, that the show has, indeed, been renewed for a second season.

Joy,
Lynn
