5.7, but still... I delete the video, for it no longer exists and such video links are best avoided.

Since supposedly episodes do not qualify for this, I remove it, but well-received the premise was not. The IMDB score is of 5.4 and there were not few reviews there requesting to kill Iris or put her on a bus.

Furthermore, to some, Barry's "Run, Iris, Run" pales in comparison to Thawne's "Run, Barry, Run" from the pilot.

It was because of Savitar trying to kill her and having to be the glue that kept the team together after Barry left. Besides who else as suppose to be on comms when Joe and the team metas were out in the field?

OK, seriously, you clearly don't like Iris and want a place to complain about her, but the comment about how YOU think Iris barely averts being a Satellite Love Interest really had nothing to do with the example that the episode was a tough act to follow because of "Enter Flashtime" was completely unnecessary. You want to do that, take it to the YMMV discussion page.
