that was sick except... I don't like how they're treating time travel, I was expecting him to pop back again into the current timeline but apparently they're doing the incredibly nonsensical "well he went back in time and then magically went inside the consciousness of his past self"

EDIT: oh yeah, they didn't give him much to do but Spartacus did a good job and his fake American accent was pretty good

They haven't established what the rules for time travel are. That's what tonight's show is for, I'm guessing. I doubt it's just going to be a reset ex machina.

Iris' boyfriend is named Eddie Thawne. Coincidence?

Who else was in there from the original series? I know Barry's father was the original Flash, but other than that I've got nothing.
