What is somewhat interesting about watching “Arrow” season 3 so far is that at this very moment, we actually feel closer to the first season of the show than we have in a rather long time. Malcolm Merlyn is a major presence again, we’ve found out so much more about the past, and judging from […]
“Arrow” season 3 for the most part has been a very strong season, and one full of great moments and memorable new characters. With all of this being said, we sit here feeling at least somewhat divided over “Midnight City,” which may be one of the weaker episodes that the show has put out there. […]
Have we really seen the last of Oliver Queen on “Arrow“? We do not think that it takes much of a TV genius to answer that question with a “no.” This is a character who is essential to the series, and of course there is zero chance that he was going to be killed off. […]
Tonight, “Arrow” season 3 aired its winter finale, and while we are going to have a full review for this installment up in the morning (and a podcast later this week), we thought tonight would be a good opportunity to at least address one of the biggest questions coming out of the winter finale “The […]
Wednesday night’s new episode of “Arrow” wrapped up the huge crossover episode between the show and “The Flash,” and for the most part, we would say that the story was extremely rewarding in the process. There was some great action, some drama, and a few surprises in the process. In the end, though, we’re still […]
Even though Cupid is hardly the most high-profile villain from the comic world that we’ve seen come onto “Arrow” over the years, we have to admit that we were more excited to see her than almost anyone other than Malcolm Merlyn and Ra’s al Ghul this season. Why? She’s crazy, and most often, crazy characters […]
For the second straight week, “Arrow” gave us an episode on The CW that had mostly excited by the last sixty seconds. As for the rest of the hour, it was strong, but did not set us up on a trajectory that will last the rest of the season. We learned through this episode that […]
At this very moment, we are still trying to figure out whether we are tremendously excited about the way that “Arrow” ended its new episode on Wednesday night, or simply just anxious. For an episode that was by and large about Felicity and her journey to becoming who she is today in Starling City, it […]
A few episodes now into its third season, and “Arrow” is in some ways at a crossroads. They are doing many things right, but at the same time falling into the same pitfalls that it has for the first two seasons. For example, what is the point of proclaiming to have an honest relationship between […]
Going into Wednesday night “Arrow” episode “Corto Maltese,” we really wanted to like the story that was brought to the table. We had the return of Malcolm Merlyn and Thea Queen, a new, particularly sunnier location, and also a chance to see Felicity and Laurel have stories completely independent of our leads. What we had, […]
