Season 3 is in the books for ‘Arrow’ with the city saved and one surprising death. I was attempting to figure out why I felt a bit underwhelmed by the season finale and I think in large part I was tired of saying goodbye to Oliver Queen. It didn’t take long for Oliver to reveal […]
Since Oliver’s death, Season 3 has been an inconsistent ride for our favorite hooded archer. There’s been some exceptional episodes, but surprisingly there’s been enough to suggest that ‘Arrow’s’ spot as the crown jewel of the comic book TV shows was in serious jeopardy. After tonight’s episode, one of the best of the entire series, […]
Dark Arrow comes to Starling City and it’s up to Team Arrow to stop him. Better than most episodes since ‘Uprising,’ with Oliver’s initial return from the brink of death, tonight’s show had a sense of purpose beyond Team Arrow grieving their absent leader — a crutch the writers have leaned on far too heavily […]
Tonight’s episode had some great moments specifically that killer last scene, but too much felt far too familiar in a season where the underlining theme may as well be ‘It’s So Hard to Say Goodbye.’ Things start off great with Oliver coming home to find a gravely wounded Thea bleeding out. While the doctors try […]
Managed to pick your jaw back off the floor after tonight’s shocking episode? Good, because I sure haven’t. Just as Team Arrow successfully concocted a plan to kill off the Arrow, Ra’s al Ghul eliminated a team member for real — maybe. We’ll get to that crazy final 10 minutes in a bit. First, Oliver […]
Well, if ‘The Flash’ and ‘Arrow’ had to go on a week break they certainly gave us a lot to take in. Just when it looked ‘The Flash’ ran off with the Best Comic Book Show of the Week crown, ‘Arrow’ neatly hit the target resulting in the week’s best one-two punch since the ‘Flash […]
Arrow takes on Iron Man in his Atom armor, Felicity makes her choice while Diggle and Lyla have the worst honeymoon ever in an episode that featured a shocking death — but probably not one you were expecting. Since they ain’t getting no younger and figured they might as well do this, Diggle and Lyla […]
While not nearly as steeped in WTH moments as last night’s ‘The Flash,’ the spring kickoff for ‘Arrow” had its share of intriguing moments and a crazy final scene sure to have some major repercussions for our hooded hero. When last we left Oliver, he was at Ra’s al Ghul’s lair getting the full Emperor […]
Similar to last season, we’re at the key point of ‘Arrow’s’ third season where the writers are ignoring the standard TV episodic formula and instead start building to the home stretch that plays out much more like 44-minute movies. And with everything packed into this episode — Black Canary vs. Merlyn! Raylicity! Thea’s true confession […]
You get a lot of history and attachment to characters over the course of 60 episodes and this week’s episode had a homecoming feel with welcome appearances from former cast members — plus an Arrow vs. Deathstroke rematch! The flashbacks are beginning to have diminishing returns at this point in large part this season because […]
