I just hope Wild Dog gets a comic again.....I will be ok with it even if its all LATINO'ed up.

But if the show gets too bad again all around, I have no problem dropping the season. Don't regret checking out the first few episodes or so tho.

What the hell happened to this show?

First two episodes weren't bad, but then the third had all the crap that made S4 so painful to watch. As Ridley_Prime remarked though, at least the fight scenes are still being well-done. I'd actually say that Oliver himself has been portrayed fairly decently this time. Even bringing back Ollie's killing has some kind of believable reason to it, even if somewhat extreme. It's the rest of it that took a dip in episode three.

And screw you CW for making me think Deadshot was still alive, even if only briefly. I actually quite liked the CW version, so them teasing him, only to reveal that he is somehow Diggle's hallucination, was a massive copout.

I cant watch this show anymore..its so sad what has happened.

Oh Man up Timmy. Man Up!

I dunno... watching Arrow stomp the crap out of his own team in like 3 seconds was pretty entertaining.

What episode was that

Think that was the 3rd episode of the season. Same one where the guy that fell in the pink chemicals became Feel No Pain Man.

Episode 4, when they try to stop him from rescuing Diggle.

Now it all.

It was kind of funny to see Nuke from Jessica Jones play Christopher Chance.

dude from the walking dead was a waste....

it was cool to see Christopher Chance, period. I was 1 of like 5 people who watched the 'Human Target' series.

I found him pretty decent on the last episode. And it looks like we might potentially see him again sometime, considering he appears to have ties with Oliver's old Russian gangster buddies. The way he took out those thugs, during the one flashback, was quite entertaining. And I even smiled when Felicity put on the fake Oliver face and said, "You have failed this city".

They should just give Wild Dog his own show, screw the Arrow. he is boring.

I did not expect Dolph Lundgren to pop up on Arrow. It's certainly an interesting choice. He made a good debut, at least IMO. Also, I find it funny that Felicity's boyfriend seems to be a Green Arrow fanboy. The twist at the end of the episode was a bit bizarre though.

Spoiler:
I have a tough time believing that Lance is playing ninja. Two seasons ago, the guy could barely run down the stairs without risking a heart attack.

I don't know why I bothered. I stopped watching Arrow somewhere in the previous season but because I was bored and I saw Dolph Lundgren was going to be in this week's episode, I decided to watch it... Then promptly lost interest.

So, to summarise: Oliver now has a fan group who are supposed to collectively play the amusing sidekick role, I assume. Except they're not amusing. Or really anything, except for the girl who (surprise, surprise) is unhappy because she doesn't know everything about Ollies dark, shady past.

At this point I could feel my eye starting to twitch....

Felicity is conflicted because (surprise, surprise) there are secrets between her and her love interest. Ollie and Diggle have a bro-moment.

I clenched my jaws and continued on...

And horror of horrors, here come the endless, traumatic flashbacks again (and finally, there is Dolph, mumbling something about not being a farmer while snapping a neck).

The only sympathy I had for any character is Detective Lance. If I was him, I'd drink myself comatose every night too.

In fact...

I think that is simply a smoke screen about Capt. Lance... I'm sure whooever Prometheus turns out to be will be someone around Oliver's age
