Barry Allen, a forensic scientist working for the Central City police, is struck by lightning and doused in chemicals in his lab, he develops superspeed and creates a superhero identity for himself to fight crime, The Flash. Research scientist, Dr. Tina McGee who works from S.T.A.R. Labs helps Barry fight crime and tries to understand how his powers are developing.

Development for the series began in 1988 when Warner Bros. Television tried to develop television films based on some DC Comics characters for CBS. Danny Bilson and Paul De Meo conceived one that featured several superheroes, including the Flash, though their project was not made. In January 1990, new CBS Entertainment president Jeff Sagansky expressed interest in creating a series featuring the Flash, and The Flash was announced a few months after.[1]
Bilson and De Meo were tapped to write the pilot episode, which they completed in January 1990. Filming for the episode took six weeks, from May through June 1990.[1][3] The final effects for the pilot were completed a week before airing in September 1990. Bilson said, "There are 125 special effects. It's done on a grand scale."[1] The 2-hour pilot cost $6 million, and each subsequent episode of The Flash cost around $1.6 million to produce.[1][5]
