At least show us that Evelynn is finally dead. I'd be fine with Thea dying, but I knew it would a fake out. So kinda dissapointed.<br /><br />I hope Talia won't forget her revenge and we will see her more this season. Especially that Gotham did not use her yet in their paralell Ra's-al-Ghul plotline so the character should still be up for grabs.Patrykhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13662838711958747484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-24206922333561352902017-11-05T06:18:18.782-05:002017-11-05T06:18:18.782-05:00Couldn't agree more with this statement, Malle...Couldn't agree more with this statement, Mallena. <br /><br /><b>"I’m not thrilled that Katie Cassidy was added to the regular cast for this season.

Come to think of it, Arrow has been best when it had its best side-kicks. Manu Bennett, Colton Haynes, John Barrowman, Susanna Thompson...<br /><br />Manu Bennett was THE star of Spartacus, he was great in Arrow, he was awesome in the Hobbit movies, and his magical druid in The Shannara Chronicles is the only thing that keeps me watching that show. <br /><br />So...Arrow feels now like it has lost all its great stars. The show is desperately in need of new ones.<br />TJnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-9911112427962067252017-10-19T12:51:46.867-04:002017-10-19T12:51:46.867-04:00Raisa is the Queen's maid from season 1.

She disappeared after season 1, but apparently made enough of an impression on Oliver that he brought her back to help raise his own son.Profehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05911733147153841590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-23800399494096590332017-10-16T21:49:26.914-04:002017-10-16T21:49:26.914-04:00Shari, Phyllis...thank you for the encouragement. ...Shari, Phyllis...thank you for the encouragement. I so appreciate it. Is it okay to watch a superhero show for the characters and not the action? With a few exceptions like Laurel, it's the characters that keep my interest.<br /><br />I've read an interview of Stephen's where he said that his son is now a young man in the sixth grade which would make him 11-12. Also,the boy who plays William has an age range stated as 12-14 on his bio. Maybe he's gotten caught in one of those age advancing tropes that are prevalent on tv shows with kids.Mallenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11368492098724611717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-33485064460202722532017-10-16T17:44:40.061-04:002017-10-16T17:44:40.061-04:00Your review is spot on.

Papa Lance and his drinking problem is getting old, I hope they end that now. I am not on board with the return of Katie Cassidy - Black Siren and Dinah look so much alike that it became very distracting. Glad it wasn't just me who felt that way. And Raisa? Raisa came out of the blue or did I forget something.<br /><br />I still mostly liked the episode because I am an Arrow fan, but I felt a bit letdown by these issues because I expect better from Arrow. The interaction between Oliver and Felicity at the end did give me a glimmer of hope for better things ahead.Phyllis Stricklandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04316626487629706306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-29435989469577032262017-10-16T17:21:02.457-04:002017-10-16T17:21:02.457-04:00Hi Mallena,
I think you're doing just fine. ...Hi Mallena, <br /><br />I think you're doing just fine. I'm not a comic book person either but I'm a wee bit obsessed with this show. So, I'll just through a couple of things out there. In case you didn't remember, Raisa was from the pilot where they made a big deal of her and then she was never seen again. Until now. <br /><br />Also, I think William is 9. Ollie found out that Samantha was pregnant in 2007 (It was a 2014 episode and the flashback said 7 years ago). Sorry, I get a little OCD about these things. <br /><br />I look forward to reading more.

I like what appears to be some rekindling of Olicity, and I'm worried about Dig. And I'm not sure how I feel about evil Lauren. Guess we'll see!Billie Douxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141769005175631213noreply@blogger.com
