Arrow is back for it’s penultimate episode. Things have been ramping up for the past few episodes. That is something that Arrow is really good at. As the end of a season approaches, it raises to fever pitches until it is clear that something needs to be done. in this case it is nukes going…
Oliver is not keen on slacking off now that things are a little better with Darhk off the streets. He doesn’t want anyone to fall behind and relax. Darhk is making himself busy in prison. I’m surprised that he seemed to have more screen time now that he was in prison than he did when…
Arrow is back. So is Cupid. She’s none too enamored with love any more. The opening of her killing the young couple was absolutely defeatist. It wasn’t until she left them as a symbol on the street to be found that her hostile intentions were clear. She’s going after happy celebrity couples at that. The…
Felicity found out about William the hard way, by Darhk flaunting the fact that the young boy was in his custody. This sent Felicity into a rage because of Oliver’s inability to tell her the truth. it cut her deep. That pain only got worse as it was revealed that Thea and Barry also knew…
Nyssa is still trying to claim that Oliver is her husband. At least she’s trying to get Oliver to do what she wants by drawing him in and using Thea as leverage. Oliver isn’t quite keen on killing Malcolm though. Despite listing off all the terrible things that Malcolm has done, Oliver knows that just…
Felicity is in with the team. She’s quite jazzed about being Overwatch. Things are not as clear with her position at Palmer Tech. During a dry runthrough of a presentation she was really fumbling about with the presentation. Between being in a wheelchair and not being a natural presenter it was bound to be clunky.…
Felicity wants to be called Hot Wheels. I like it, but Oliver shot it down. Obviously she’s a bit down because of her condition, but she’s not feeling quite ready to be part of the team again, even after Oliver’s assurances that it’s her mind that helps them. It’s probably a good thing that Felicity…
Felicity is alive. She’s still in bad shape with apparent nerve damage. She’s been in and out of surgery and looks it, but even still she’s maintaining her usual humor and wit. It’s a credit to her character, but that’s still not a place you want to see her in. All this time Oliver did…
It’s a low blow to go after innocents at a volunteer event. Yet, that shouldn’t be surprising when HIVE attacked the bay. Those were innocent people including children. It was the last straw for Oliver and they decided something needed to be done. Oliver’s response to this attack was him calling Darhk out to the…
The episode opened with a team working as a well oiled team. Considering that Oliver is now the outsider on the team it’s surprising that they work so well. Considering that internally they have so much turmoil it’s surprising they can work together so well. I have to admit that the choreography was well done…
Felicity and Oliver are in complete domestic bliss. Felicity can’t cook. They have afternoon delight. Oliver goes on pleasant jogs. They are happy. Oliver even got rid of a tattoo. All the while Felicity is doing her best to run Palmer Technologies. It’s almost odd seeing them in this pleasant element where their worst worry…
The Arrow team has always had a string of problems. Serious problems with judgement and and team ups. Now they are suffering from severe trust issues. Diggle and Felicity are in a place where they can’t believe in Oliver after all of his extreme lies. On the plus side, they have a high stakes goal…
What perfect timing that Oliver walked into the loft moments after Thea was gored (and yes, I believe that’s the most appropriate term for what happened). It was just enough and just fast enough to get her to a hospital. Get her stabilized. However, it may not have been fast enough to spare Thea. The…
The partnership between The Flash, Joe, and Eddie is really amusing. Eddie seems to be taking this in stride and really enjoying how Barry can be an asset to them. All the animosity that seemed to be building between them has mostly faded away in favor of the embracing what The Flash can do to…
After Laurel’s sudden appearance as Black Canary last week, it’s good to see that she’s not out there being successful. She’s going after criminals and doing her best to fight. While she’s not entirely incompetent, she isn’t nearly skilled enough to be doing this on her own. So much so that Arsenel needed to pop…
So, I pondered...
