It seems like forever since the hit CW series The Flash made its television debut and introduced us to the titular hero (Barry Allen, aka the Flash, played by Grant Gustin). Several seasons later, Barry has mastered the art of beating up bad guys. And this season has been no exception.
However, weeks after the Season 8 premiere, the series went on hiatus. After a long three-month wait, The Flash returned with all-new episodes on March 9, 2022. So our next question is, will The Flash be returning for a ninth season? A 10th? We've got the details on the DC show for you.

So, will there be a Season 9 of 'The Flash'?
Alas, DC fans. The CW dropped major details about the future of Central City on March 22. An official press release confirms that along with Superman & Lois and Riverdale, The Flash will return for the 2022-2023 season.
In the release, CW Chairman and CEO Mark Pedowitz said the network is looking forward to "utilizing some of our most-watched series for us to build on for next year and beyond on the network."
Viewers can rest easy knowing that the series has been renewed. However, a previous report by The Hollywood Reporter teased that the "end" of the series "is near." And it looks like Season 9 may be the show's last.

Is 'The Flash' ending? Here's what we know.
Per a March 2022 report from Deadline, Grant Gustin recently signed with the talent agency ICM for representation.
Now, this doesn't necessarily signal that Grant is done playing the CW's speedy red-suited superhero, but Grant's ICM deal has resulted in speculation that he's looking for other projects to work on.

How many episodes are left in 'The Flash' Season 8?
Here's what we do know: Season 8 isn't over yet! Per a ScreenRant report, Season 8 will have 18 episodes total. That means we still have plenty of episodes left of prime superhero content!
New episodes of The Flash Season 8 air Wednesday nights on the CW at 8 p.m. EST. If the series doesn't deviate from this schedule, that means the Season 8 finale of The Flash will air on June 1, 2022.
At this point in the game, the Arrowverse timeline is crystal clear for Season 8 of The Flash.
