Tonight is the Season 6 premiere of The Flash on The CW. The new episode will air on Tuesday, October 8 at 8 p.m. Eastern (7 p.m. Central.) After the heartbreaking ending last season, you’ll likely want to know what happens right away. So here’s how to watch live online, even if you don’t have cable.
If you don’t have cable, you can watch a live stream of the CW on your computer, phone, Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV or other streaming device via one of the following cable-free, live-TV streaming services:

Recap of Last Season’s Finale
The CW
In case you need a refresher about last season’s finale, we’ve got that for you. It turned out that in the future, Cicada’s dagger was suppressing Eobard Thawne’s powers. He sent Nora back in time to help stop Cicada so the dagger could be destroyed.
Nora was heartbroken over how she was manipulated by her dad’s greatest enemy. Meanwhile, Cisco told Kamilla all about his identity and how he was working on a cure.
With a good dose of teamwork, the team is able to trap Cicada II in a speed trap at S.T.A.R. Labs. Nora enters young Grace’s mind and tries to convince her to take the metahuman cure. Young Grace agrees, but the cure doesn’t work and Cicada II breaks free. With no choice, Barry has Cisco breach the mirror gun so he can destroy the dagger. This causes Cicada II to disappear into dust. But this also frees Thawne in the future.
Flash and Nora travel to 2049 to stop Thawne from escaping. The team works together again and defeats him. The downside is that this starts a new timeline that will ultimately erase Nora from existence. Thawne claims he mastered the timeline, but Nora can only survive by using the Negative Speed Force. Nora can’t bring herself to do it because she’s afraid she’ll never be able to go back to being good. And Nora fades away out of existence.
Meanwhile, in a strange plot twist that (to me) didn’t make a lot of sense, Cisco decides to take the cure and become a normal human again without powers. Caitlin gives the cure to him and Cisco leaves saying he feels “scared but hopeful.”
Joe, meanwhile, is the new CCPD captain and Singh is Chief of Police. Sherloque returns to his Earth with Irene. Ralph begins to work on a case involving Deardon.
But everything’s not fixed. Now it looks like Barry’s going to disappear in 2019 rather than 2024.
