If you thought that you had figured out Wednesday night’s “Arrow” finale 20 or so minutes in, then you were just as blind to the truth as Slade Wilson. This ended up being one of the show’s most-clever episodes, and an hour so breakneck and fast-paced that we wish it could have gone on forever. […]
It’s been over 12 hours since “Arrow” first aired “Streets of Fire,” and we are still struggling to figure out whether or not we actually enjoyed it as much as we wanted to. For an episode that did so much right when it comes to action and character moments, it also had a few moments […]
There are episodes for almost every show out there that are designed not so much to be hits, but to get you from point A to point B. These episodes are almost like the second movie in trilogy. They are the ones that few people remember, but become so important once you see what the […]
Who knew that “Seeing Red” was going to become one of the most stunning episodes of “Arrow” to date? Going into it, the impression we had was that this was going to be largely a Roy Harper story, which in some ways contained filler that would not impact the story of Slade Wilson very much […]
“Arrow” has prided itself on being many things throughout its second season, and ambitious has to be at the top of that list. Despite airing on a network in The CW known mostly for people not wearing shirts and for vampire romances, they’ve pulled off more than we could have ever hopes. But how much […]
For the past several days, “Arrow” has hyped up “Deathstroke” as one of the most fantastic episodes of the entire series. You give an episode that sort of hype, and the one thing you almost immediately run the risk of is having expectations be thwarted by your own hype. We were worried about that at […]
For everyone wanting to see an episode geared very much around Sara Lance and the return of Jessica de Gouw as The Huntress, “Birds of Prey” on “Arrow” Wednesday night was right up your alley. Most of the story was geared around Helena’s return to Starling City in order to try to murder her father, […]
With some shows, you really worry about episodes that tilt the focus away from the lead, mostly because the others often do not have the sort of structures in place that are needed to support a larger story on their own. Luckily, “Arrow” has found a way around that with the John Diggle character. Despite […]
We’re a little later than usual with this “Arrow” review thanks to the redesign that we’ve been working on for CarterMatt (hope you like the new look!), but better late than never, right? Plus, there is so much to talk about with “The Promise,” one of the show’s most-pivotal episodes to date, that it absolutely […]
Sometimes on “Arrow,” you get episodes that are great because of the larger story at hand; then, on other occasions you get stories that are great because of individual character moments and performances. When it comes to “Time of Death,” we have more of the latter. For those who wanted to see more progression on […]
