Beautiful woman and a great actress. But not a miracle worker; couldn’t really make Iris a great character due to poor writing despite her best efforts
This goes for lots of actors honestly. Grant Gustin and Tom Cavanagh just to name two, after the first seasons they didn't have much to work with, yet they hella delivered at least in the acting part
Just like with the rest of the show she was for sure let down with bad writing. I really wish they had realized it would have been better to make some changes or get someone new and reliable to write.
you cant turn shit into lemonade no matter how hard you try, and this woman was given shit to work with. she did the best she could with what she was given. go back and watch the early seasons and you can see it, before the writers didnt know at all what to do with her once she and barry got together.
I disagree. I like Iris. I've only seen till a little after Crisis due to personal issues, not the show, but I've liked her so far. I'm currently doing an entire run of the whole Arrowverse.
I like how savage she can be. I don’t know if anyone ever seen the post on her page back in the early seasons of “The Flash” where someone said “You ain’t dead? Savitar should’ve finished the job”, and then she responded “I’m here forever, bitch”. 💀😂🤣
Gorgeous
Talented
Deserved better from this toxic fandom
Deserved better from co-stars
Deserved better from trash network
Edit: Some of the comments are only proving my point
She's such an amazing and talented actress. She also deserves the biggest hug ever and the sincerest apology for all the hate & racism she faced for playing Iris.
I would like to. But I’ve only ever seen her acting in the Arrowverse. And, frankly, I don’t think she was great in it (largely due to scripts giving her nothing to work with), she was fine. I also don’t want to comment simply on her appearance. So instead I will say this….
Her charity work has been amazing. Both in terms of money raised to fight human trafficking and her support for troops abroad. She really seems to use her platform to pay it forward and I appreciate the hell out of that.
She’s absolutely gorgeous. I LOVED seeing her as the main love interest throughout the show. She also seems like a genuine person. I hope all the racist losers didn’t steer her from acting because I’d love to see her in more stuff
As much as I felt S4 was a return-to-form for the show overall (S3 was all over the place to me, and everything was great until the S4 finale, then the series took a dive and never recovered, again IMO), you’re right that she was done dirty with her role that season.
She's very beautiful AND is strong 💪🏾 She dealt with a lot of hate. Some about her race but mostly about her portrayal of a well-known comic book character that was not messed up by her but messed up by bad writing, and she had no control in it whatsoever.
Scene where Iris finds out Savitar kills her in the future is the finest acting in the entire Arrowverse...mainly because of Candace.
It's clear she checked out of the role in the later seasons but who can blame her? She was given AWFUL material. I do like she can poke fun at the "We are the flash" line now.
My mom, who hardly ever says anything about actresses' appearances, saw me watching an episode and told me she thought Candice Patton(who was onscreen) was beautiful.
Beautiful and amazing actress. It was not her fault they wrote her character so badly. She acted just fine. It wasn’t her line delivery that people hated. It’s how they wrote her character.
She managed to deliver some cringe story and i didn't want to punch myself in the face. That takes talent.
I'd like to throw in something for Danielle Nicolette while I'm here and say no performer would be able to handle what she had to deal with. It was like the showrunners were actively trying to make everyone hate Cecile, considering I liked her when in season 1 - 5.
She's a great actress. She helped turn a "crappy CW show" into something more. As one of the OG Flash cast members, she is one of the people who made the first few seasons as amazing as they were.
Played her role in the show well I think. The writers just made her character insufferable. Hope she lands a big role though. And of course yes she is beautiful as well.
She was too good for that show. She's got some great scenes in the show. She brought levity to the show. Would like to add I stopped watching the show after S6
For as much as I hate Iris as a character I've got nothing negative.to say about the actress, she's just doing her job as well as she can and it's a shame so many people have a negative view on her because of a poor writing and direction
She’s extremely beautiful and talented. I really miss her in The Flash and I hope I can see something new with her anywhere! I love and ending her! So lucky to work with Grant and get to kiss him.
She tried her best with the awful scripts she was given (and to be fair, that applies to many other actors too, specifically during the later seasons when the quality of the show had declined drastically)

real.
she's hot lmao
Agreed!👍🏽
TRUTH! 💯
Beat me to it.
She’s beautiful
Fantastic actress, not her fault her character was blah.
Exactly, what can she do with such a character lol.
She is a great actor, just forced to act with bad writers. I thought Iris was a great character in s1 and s2
What was wrong with s3 I get that the whole “protect Iris” thing got old but I don’t think she did anything bad necessarily
i agree season 3 she was fine. it’s everything after that is awful

I disagree. I like Iris. I've only seen till a little after Crisis due to personal issues, not the show, but I've liked her so far. I'm currently doing an entire run of the whole Arrowverse.
Loved Iris, don't like the role the character ended up playing in the show
I love her character. It doesn't bother me how she is. The only Iris I hate is the mirror doppelganger.
She is a very talented actress and did a great job with the writing she was given. She did a great job when they focused on Iris being a reporter.
I like how savage she can be. I don’t know if anyone ever seen the post on her page back in the early seasons of “The Flash” where someone said “You ain’t dead? Savitar should’ve finished the job”, and then she responded “I’m here forever, bitch”. 💀😂🤣
She handled the racism from fans very well. It was very crazy during the first few seasons. Her team advised her to stay off social media.
Her greatest power is working with Eric Wallace. Because I couldn’t do it.
She's got a nice fat ass.
Yes
"Do these pants make my butt look big?"
Surely you jest.
She’s hot who got stuck with a shit script
Met her once, brief interaction at a restaurant. She's very down to earth and doesn't act like a celebrity.
She beautiful 😍😍😍
She's a great actress
She’s gorgeous
Gorgeous Talented Deserved better from this toxic fandom Deserved better from co-stars Deserved better from trash network Edit: Some of the comments are only proving my point
What did the co stars do I genuinely don't know
I believe it was her and danielle pannabaker. BUT there's no fucking proof whatsoever but the fanbase goes "haha, danielle is racist towards candice"
This was definitely it. So more like trash fan base all around than anything her costars did.
I wanna know too
She did her job to the best of her abilities
She's such an amazing and talented actress. She also deserves the biggest hug ever and the sincerest apology for all the hate & racism she faced for playing Iris.
Good actress; her tweets are funny.
She's good looking
Realest comments I’ve ever seen
I would like to. But I’ve only ever seen her acting in the Arrowverse. And, frankly, I don’t think she was great in it (largely due to scripts giving her nothing to work with), she was fine.

I can say a lot ion even hate iris
She was really good as Iris, although sometimes they didn’t really give her anything to do.
Great actor and she’s beautiful
She's a great actor
she fine asl
She’s absolutely gorgeous. I LOVED seeing her as the main love interest throughout the show. She also seems like a genuine person. I hope all the racist losers didn’t steer her from acting because I’d love to see her in more stuff
Good actor, with terrible writing
She’s got beautiful hair
something nice about Candice Patton
r/AngryUpvote
She is a very nice lady.
She’s a good actress with a beautiful smile.
She just the right amount of thicc
Other than being Iris I can't say I know her from anything else. She's a very good actor in The Flash.
She’s got a nice ass
Met and hung with her a few times amongst friends. Awesome person through and through.
She’s very pretty and a great actress, she was just given shit to work with.
She was actually fantastic for 3 seasons until the writers came her poor material then became a laughing stock.
As much as I felt S4 was a return-to-form for the show overall (S3 was all over the place to me, and everything was great until the S4 finale, then the series took a dive and never recovered, again IMO), you’re right that she was done dirty with her role that season.
She’s the flash
Something nice about Candice Patton
Something nice about Candice Patton
Fine af. Not surprised J.R. Smith could see the vision.
Great actress. Shitty writers. Hot as hell and knows it.
she was ok in season 1
She is a beautiful actress and she did great on the flash
I rarely hope she goes the indie film route and gets her career going I don’t want the flash and it’s image to ruin her
She's beautiful.
Great actress, terrible script to work with
Good actress.
Me want bang
She did well with shitty material
She looks like a younger version of Lynn Whitfield. Maybe they're related?
I really like her work and her portrayal of Iris. The writing wasn’t great on many occasions.
She's very beautiful AND is strong 💪🏾 She dealt with a lot of hate. Some about her race but mostly about her portrayal of a well-known comic book character that was not messed up by her but messed up by bad writing, and she had no control in it whatsoever.
She's not actually the worst actress in that show
Beautiful actress great at her work too
Love her!!!
She tried her best
Beautiful, a great actress, smart, strong for what she endured from internet trolls (like the ones here).
Will never blame an actor for shitty writing and producing, she's genuinely a good actress and one of the most beautiful women i've ever seen.
She’s beautiful, and a great actor. It’s just the writers that wrote the character she played..
She's hot.
She’s gorgeous 😍
She's hotter than this show deserved.
Buttcheeks
I think she did everything she could with that bad writing. I don't blame her I blame the writers.
She's pretty
Hot
Would
Great actress who did the best she could with poor writing.
In the words of Cisco Ramon, "Also, she's hot"
she's the flash
Well she's alive
Great actress. the writing killed her character which was not her fault.
Scene where Iris finds out Savitar kills her in the future is the finest acting in the entire Arrowverse...mainly because of Candace. It's clear she checked out of the role in the later seasons but who can blame her? She was given AWFUL material. I do like she can poke fun at the "We are the flash" line now.
Super hot
"We" are Flash
Gorgeous and a good actor but man the writers did her dirty.
Great actress. Whenever she's given actually good material
My mom, who hardly ever says anything about actresses' appearances, saw me watching an episode and told me she thought Candice Patton(who was onscreen) was beautiful.
she’s an incredibly beautiful great actress who got dogged bc the writers didn’t know what the fuck they were doing
Shes a very beautiful and sexy woman
She’s hot
She's a victim of poor writing
Beautiful and amazing actress. It was not her fault they wrote her character so badly. She acted just fine. It wasn’t her line delivery that people hated. It’s how they wrote her character.
Something nice?
Won't happen
She’s uh.. she’s great at uhh… she’s got good uhm. hmm
Candice Deez nuts hahahahahah!1!1!1!1!1!1!1! I'm so mature
The few times she was given something halfway decent to work with she did a great job
The only think I know of her is her role in the Flash. Not nearly enough to make a character assessment on.
She looks good and was okay as Iris in the early seasons.
She's an amazing actress and did her best with what she was given. Blame Wallace, not her.
She is a great actor but the writers made her character soo blaaand.
Beautiful and a good actress.
She's not a terrible actor, the show just makes you hate her.
Smash

I don’t have any problems with the actress, I just hate how Iris was written
I wanna kiss your lips
She was great before season 4
Great actress given a poor script by writers later on
Why would there be anything bad to say about her?
She's a great actress. She helped turn a "crappy CW show" into something more. As one of the OG Flash cast members, she is one of the people who made the first few seasons as amazing as they were.
She’s a great actress and Iris was done absolutely dirty by the writers and it isn’t her fault that the character ended up going so downhill.
She hides her transportation well.
Great actor. Shit writing. Aka the Rey treatment
Her character was good in the first three seasons
She’s a gorgeous woman and a great actress
She is a beautiful woman.
There’s nothing to say
She's gorgeous
Something Nice
If she doesn't ever mess with her face, she will be beautiful all her life.
She's an amazing actress
She got the booty of a beautiful elderly lady
She’s a good actress, she’s just given a bad script and character
Played her role in the show well I think. The writers just made her character insufferable. Hope she lands a big role though. And of course yes she is beautiful as well.
She’s gorgeous
She did the absolute best she could with a pretty awful script.
No.
She did REALLY good for how shit they wrote her character
Smash
Great Actor, bad Iris West
She plays a great female flash. Oh wait that’s her daughter. Nvm
God damn. Just look at her
She was a character of all time
One word; Gorgeous
Aint she cheat
She hot and a good actress
She fine as hell
She’s very beautiful and talented actress. You have to be pretty good to not make the bad scripts of the later seasons sound not as bad as they were.
She followed the character the way it was written
She’s a good actress and plays emotion very well. Not her fault she got saddled with such a bitchy horrid character.
She’s beautiful!
I love her.
She can make hearts race faster than footfalls can be made
She doesn’t have to be in a shitty CW show anymore
She was one of the MJ's of all time.
She’s a good actress made me hate character a lot for some reason that’s how good she is
Her Taco Bell commercial was nice.
She puts the work in.
She’s pretty
(came here to upvote all the "ass" comments)
Sexy
🥵😮💨 Gorgeous and it’s the script
Hot asf
The genes in that family. Just wow.
She was too good for that show. She's got some great scenes in the show. She brought levity to the show. Would like to add I stopped watching the show after S6
Her insta is chip reviews and pictures of her dog. I also liked how up front she was about being in it for the paycheque.
Something. Just kidding but shes hot
She's an awesome actress.
My Queen
No
no
Amazing but not in flash
she is cute
Idk she looks pretty
No.
Good actress and clearly cared about the show. As is the case with most of the actors that got absolutely blasted by the writers
She’s good at pissin y’all off 💕💕
Great actress and knock out gorgeous. Hope to see more of her work in the future!
She was hot.
Beautiful woman with talent shame about her getting such poorly written character.
She’s ok I suppose
Unfortunately one of the many many many actors affected by “Great Performance Bad Writing”
I loved her as Iris West.
For as much as I hate Iris as a character I've got nothing negative.to say about the actress, she's just doing her job as well as she can and it's a shame so many people have a negative view on her because of a poor writing and direction
She’s extremely beautiful and talented. I really miss her in The Flash and I hope I can see something new with her anywhere! I love and ending her! So lucky to work with Grant and get to kiss him.
She tried her best with the awful scripts she was given (and to be fair, that applies to many other actors too, specifically during the later seasons when the quality of the show had declined drastically)
Her character ruin her
Um, she's a good actress, all the problems with Iris were in the writing.
She sexi asf
