^^^ Yeah, Flash is definitely the stronger show at the moment...
I really love the fact that Flash is unapologetically a comic book show. They don't try to be too real and gritty. I like the way Cisco names all the villains. And speaking of villains, Dr. Wells is great too. It looks like they're doing a version of "Flashpoint Paradox" this season. I cannot wait to see how the season wraps up.
My guess is...

The only criticism I have of the show at all concerns the Rouges. I thought the first episode with Captain Cold/Leonard Snart was good, but I think the last two Rouges episodes, with Heatwave and then HW & Golden Glider, were sorta weak...
Concerning Arrow, it has lost a few steps, especially this season. During this last 2-3 week break, I went back and rewatched Season 1 on netflix. I gotta say, I was surprised at how good it was as compared to this season. I think a big problem with Arrow now has to do with lackluster stunt work.
Back in season 1 they did a lot of great free running and 'Jackie Chan' style, (slightly) over the top martial arts fighting. It really gave the show a lot of energy and edge... In season 3 they've really lost that. The fights seem sloppy and just... meh.
On a brighter note, this last episode was pretty good. I really liked the Suicide Squad story and what they did with Deadshot. Also, I was kinda worried about Ray Palmer/Atom. I thought it might turn out to be Ray Face-Palmer lame.... But, I actually really liked his first fight with Ollie and Roy.
I think the new team-up show (I hope they call it 'Justice Society`) will be pretty good.
