I loved that moment. So glad this incarnation of The Flash finally got a series finale so to speak. It was very appropriate for Flash 90 to be the one who stopped the cannon like in the comics.
This was a big budget very cool TV show with soap opera actor John Wesley Shipp perfectly casted as The Flash,never missed it. Back in 1991 there's an episode that has Mark Hamill as The Trickster, Who later on voiced The Joker in Batman the animated series sort of like a cousin to Batman's Joker great comic book fun!
@@gonefing1234 Probably because of the time that he had to make the score for the movie. From what I've heard, he only had about 4 weeks to create up the soundtrack, which really isn't nearly enough time.
Plus it was just one season and by that time superhero genre was being used to make three things 1, Money 2, sell toys halloween costumes posters and trading cards etc. 3, and by the time they said they would do a new series they made the horrible flop that was Justice League of America and everyone hated it, end of story. Until 2014 we got arrow which was used to make a backdoor pilot for the new flash series that everyone has come to both love and hate thanks to guggie and wendy.
I was in the 6th grade when this came out, I loved this show, but other than Batman 89' superhero stuff wasn't popular and mainstream as it is now, if you liked comics the other kids picked on you and made fun of you back then.
@@mattpartington5312 You said that back then if you liked comics, other kids would pick on you and laugh at you. That means that Anime will be widely loved in the future!!!!! Even now, more and more people have stopped hating it and started watching it. Mostly the newer generations.
It really does. I remember when I watched the first two episodes and I listened to main theme music and thought, "This sounds kind of like the Batman theme from the movie." I love Elfman's work, along with the works of Jerry Goldsmith and John Williams.
When you realize this is just Danny Elfman's Dick Tracy theme sped up. And then you realize the Dick Tracy theme is just the Batman theme. Then you realize the Batman theme is just the Hellraiser 2 theme sped up as well. And then Danny Elfman and Christopher Young worked together on Spider-Man 2.

@jordanthewizard bad budgeting and they can't decide if they want to bring back John wesley shipp for a "Wally west is actually Shawn Allen" story. or start over from scratch.
I heard the new Flash theme, I bet this should be the theme of the New Flash that is on the CW and they should play it in the beginning of the shown in the intro.
Why the hell didn't John Wesley Shipp (Prof. Barry Allen) have blonde hair in the show? In the comics he has blonde hair part of his character profile.

Did you catch they played this while he was on his last treadmill run? It was awesome!
The Flash will return in Elseworlds...
This December, the Flash from the 1990 show ... returns.
Plus his universe now officially coined as... Earth-90.
And then doesn't really do anything. Bummer.

I love listening to this while running on the treadmill. Talk about getting pumped up.
RIP Paul De Meo. Absolutely brilliant theme tune to accompany an underrated series way ahead of its time.
The REAL Flash will return in Crisis on Infinite Earths
I'm not alone in thinking this guy is better? Oh hell, yeah!
If you dont mind, could you say why you like this one better. Genuinely asking this.
Always loved this show. I was in 7th grade when it first aired and now I have the entire series on dvd.
My brother and I were in 8th grade, I think, but otherwise our experience is pretty similar to yours. :-)
A certain crossover brought me here.
I miss these kind of scores. Nowadays we dont get superhero sounding music anymore
This theme just makes you want to get up and run for some reason.
I'm so happy they used this theme during the crossovers.
Reeve's Superman, Keaton's Batman Linda's wonder woman and John's Flash are in the same universe
also Supergirl 1980s, she was with Sup Reeve in the Flash movie (2023)
I just watched Crisis on Infinite Earths Part 3

The Flash ends there? Or they plan to continue doing it?
@@MicaelHD The Flash 1990 ends there, yes.

Composer is Danny Elfman who also made the score for Tim Burton’s Batman
Who also scored the dissaster which was the justice league movie.
Anthony Redgrave you’re right, even the soundtrack was as fractured as the movie. Absolutely no own identity
Who also scored the spiderman trilogy and universal's first attempt sr making s Hulk movie
Oh shit hide the younglings.

God rest his soul...
he's still alive :v
@@barry8871 didn't he sacrifice himself in crisis?
@@barry8871 The actor is. The character died during Crisis on Infinite Earths
How did he get cancelled 25 years ago? The Flash is sooo cool
Bad scheduling of the show and competition against The Simpsons when it was a monster hit at the time is what killed this show.

@@kakorotskywalker cool 👍
You're a hero :(
As a huge follower of Batman TAS, i want THIS music back in ELSEWORLDS. Danny Elfman is the king of Superhero soundtracks.
CW cannot afford him
HOLY SHIT, HE'S BACK, BOYS! #elseworldshype
Oh man... 😢😭
Sounds like a Less Dark Batman Theme
Is the same composer
@@hernanvillalta Yeah, but its almost like he took his 1989 Batman and just tweaked it a bit. Too similar.
No recordaba que era tan similar a Batman
+sebastian delrio La respuesta es Danny Elfman
I own every season on dvd. Freakin awesome.
Me too, because it's like one season, lol.
Lmao I meant to say every episode.
its only one season im so sad it was cancelled
what a genius..love for elfman
Just hearing that thunder lightning gets me pumped.
The one and the only flash!!!
You want a suphero theme? There's only two guys you go to, John Williams or Danny Elfman.
Blake Neely now
And Hans Zimmer
He did spiderman as well
IMO, still the best.
well i guess the Flash is the new Batman lol
squallcloudzell he's not, but I like to think that the 90's Flash and the 89' Batman do live in the same DC universe.
That’s because it’s the same composer
you do relize this sounds like the batman theme ,just a little bit
Craig Diekmann More than just a little bit. It sounds like a very close relative.
+Alex Palmer Wouldn't be surprised it was on purpose. Two DC heroes, they probably wanted to make the themes feel like relatives.
+Craig Diekmann, They're both written by Danny Elfman. It's his style that you're probably noticing more than anything else.
Well...this and the Dick Tracey theme. Danny hit a sound he liked and milked the bejeesus out of it.
It really does. I remember when I watched the first two episodes and I listened to main theme music and thought, "This sounds kind of like the Batman theme from the movie." I love Elfman's work, along with the works of Jerry Goldsmith and John Williams.
I had just finished watching the latest episode (s6 e8) of The Flash. Then I came here to listen the original
Esto es una joya THE FLASH⚡
1990: The Flash - TV Series (TV-PG)
Created by Danny Bilson & Paul De Meo
Score Composed by Shirley Walker
Theme Composed by Danny Elfman
Shirley Walker, Danny Elfman.. They are legends. (Both of them also worked on the masterpiece that Batman The Animated series music is)
This series was so much better than the CW one.
no
Damn right it is. No teen drama. None of that.
The Flash should have a movie. They made Superman, Batman, Green Lantern, and now we need a Flash movie.
Fantastic theme
How well this comment has aged, right?
It's as Jay Garrick, but...
Man is back for Stargirl season 2 LETSGOOOO
I bet after the elseworld episode it will have a lot more comments than 56
Felt the same, and It's at 231, for the moment.
Well I'm disappointed that they didn't include the flash 90 long enough but yeah it was a good crossover
I was, too. But true, good crossover, nonetheless.
He will return.
I can't wait for the new TV Show of The Flash.
This Flash is coming back
4 years later, I can't wait for that TV show to finally go away.
When you realize this is just Danny Elfman's Dick Tracy theme sped up. And then you realize the Dick Tracy theme is just the Batman theme. Then you realize the Batman theme is just the Hellraiser 2 theme sped up as well.
And then Danny Elfman and Christopher Young worked together on Spider-Man 2.
Trickster: Could we have the theme please?
Heh I just watched that episode today and finally noticed who did the score...
Life’s in the Fast Lane.
Earth 90 flash: sorry kid but this has to happen(starts to steal earth 1 flash's speed)
Earth 1 flash: Barry--barry what are you doing?
Earth 90 flash: I'm momentarily stealing your speed, you play the speedster game long enough you learn some neat tricks
Caitlin snow: wait why are you doing this?
Earth 90 flash: novu said the flash must die in crisis he never said which one
Meilleures générique
Es MUY similar al soundtrack de Batman de 1989
Danny Elfman es la razón de la similitud.
I like how elfman didnt even bother to include this in jl. Its like he knows its just plain copy of the batman theme.
yeah hahahaha
Probably because of the time that he had to make the score for the movie. From what I've heard, he only had about 4 weeks to create up the soundtrack, which really isn't nearly enough time.
The flash of the 80's is better then now... Realy!!!
Yep, though it was more if the 90ies.
Génial
the flash of 1990 is jay Garrick of earth 3 now lol I think
Too bad that tv show lasted only one season.
I remember this well. In fact, I know someone from Sikeston would play a great Flash.
Omar Martinez, this is so you, man.
I know you'll make us all proud
R.I.P Old Barry.
Flash (1990) is cool.
Like Batman (1989, 1992).
Jenny and tai lung and jewel and sammy
Let's be honest, we're here because of Honest Trailers for The Flash (1990s) recently. Myself included.
Why do I always wish they had made a Chris Reeves Superman, 89 Batman, 90s Flash and 1997 Justice League crossover.
Apolo Ohno's theme!
Holy crap this came on REALLY loud on my computer and I was drawing!! :( Jumped like 10 feet lol
Not sure why Danny Elfman didn't use this theme on Justice League. I mean he used his Batman theme. And John Williams Superman theme.
maybe he thought it sounded too similar to his Batman theme
Now we wait for Crisis part 5
@jordanthewizard They're making one soon, in 2013ish time. :3
First Superman.
Then Batman.
Now thrill to...
THE FLASH!!
lol
Also play it at the end in the new CW series!
Is this Batman theme
I still prefer this Flash than the new one
@jordanthewizard bad budgeting and they can't decide if they want to bring back John wesley shipp for a "Wally west is actually Shawn Allen" story. or start over from scratch.
how was this recorded? with a toaster?
I heard the new Flash theme, I bet this should be the theme of the New Flash that is on the CW and they should play it in the beginning of the shown in the intro.
John Wesley Shipp, still a better Flash than the current one
Do You mean Miller or Gustin?
@@insertnameplease8218 : both

Batman!? 🤔
Sux they wasted this big return in Elseworlds. They also hyped the crap out of Batwoman and she didn’t do much either.
Great music, but only 3 stars for the craptacular quality.
way better than the new Flash.
Why the hell didn't John Wesley Shipp (Prof. Barry Allen) have blonde hair in the show? In the comics he has blonde hair part of his character profile.
Danny Elfman is so overrated
