'The Flash' Cancellation Facts And Details

The CW Network recently announced that the TV show featuring the fastest man alive will end in 2023, though the company did not disclose why it is ending its flagship DC TV series.

However, what is clear is that the decision to continue the TV series for one final season was made before the production of its eighth season was wrapped up, per an earlier Deadline report.

Additionally, there is reason to believe that the show's eighth season was to be "The Flash's" final season. TVLine interviews with the TV series' cast members and guest stars showed that this was the case and that the addition of a ninth season was a surprise for some of the cast.

One of those that was surprised by the addition of a ninth season was Danielle Panabaker, the actress behind Caitlin Snow/Killer Frost, per her IMDb page.

According to Panabaker, she was emotionally planning for "The Flash's" eighth season to be their last. However, she is grateful to the show and its fans, and she hopes there's more story to be told.

Similarly, Robbie Amell, the actor that plays Ronnie Raymond/Firestorm, was surprised with the show continuing for a ninth season. He mentioned that the eighth season was pitched to him as the final season. However, with the plan changing midseason, the ending was rewritten as a season-ender instead of a series finale.

As a result of the TV show's extension and cancellation, "The Flash's" ninth season will be its shortest among the other eight, with it having only 13 episodes.

The length is understandable in hindsight as Grant Gustin, the actor playing Barry Allen/The Flash, was reported to have afreed to a one-year, 15-episode deal.

How To Binge Watch 'The Flash'

With its ninth season scheduled for release in early 2023, fans of The CW's flagship DC TV series have an opportunity to get themselves up to speed with the Scarlet Speedster in preparation for the show's final season.

Here are some streaming services where you can binge-watch "The Flash:"

The CW

The home of the Arrowverse is a no-brainer answer to the question of where to watch "The Flash," according to Decider. The good news is that you don't have to pay to watch "The Flash" on The CW's streaming app, according to The CW Network's official website.

Netflix

Netflix is home to some of the Arrowverse's TV shows, such as its anchor, "Arrow," "Supergirl," and "Legends of Tomorrow." "The Flash" is also among the Arrowverse shows in Netflix's streaming catalog. However, the streaming service only has seven of the TV show's eight current seasons.

Despite that, Netflix is still a viable choice as you can still binge-watch all seven seasons while waiting for the eighth.

A Standard Netflix subscription costs $15.49, while its Basic and premium Tiers cost $9.99 and $19.99 respectively, per Netflix.

HBO GO

HBO GO is also another way to Binge Watch "The Flash," according to Just Watch. However, similar to Netflix, its streaming catalogs doesn't have all of the show's eight seasons. In fact, it has even fewer seasons than Netflix - the streaming service only has six seasons.

However, six seasons' worth of time might be enough for HBO to add the TV show's seventh and eighth seasons to its catalog.

An HBO GO subscription costs at least $9.99 a month, per HBO.
