I've realized that this is probably the Buffiest show since Buffy. Not that that's necessarily a good thing or a bad thing, but you wouldn't have had to change much dialogue to make this a buffy episode.

So did anyone else watch the Flash pilot?

if you're looking for the best zombie apocalypse on a boat, I would highly recommend reading World War Z (just don't watch the shitty movie)

I was definitely thinking that they would reveal that Donna had written the Byte article under Gordon's name (it seemed too weird that he wouldn't remember the words of his own article). I too hope she gets something more to do.

I cannot articulate how excited I am for next week's episode: Allison and Vic's Adventures in Rehab

Maybe the What's on Tonight threads?

Slade off the mirakuru didn't seem any different from Slade on it- so Slade's just been a psychotic creep all along.

No joke- I will end up doing that this summer. Definitely going to fast forward any time Laurel speaks and all the bratty Thea bullshit though

Nice that no one bothered to tell Roy he's a cop killer. They're just going to let that be a nice little surprise

It was a great moment because it was both Oliver being gracious and self-aware and him being a complete and utter bastard. "the only thing Shado ever wanted was for us both to get off this island. And Fuck you Slade, you're going to rot here forever."

Who would he play?

the lovable quirkiness is genetic!

Nyssa was clearly trying to be on her best behavior around Sara's family and friends, but even she didn't have the patience to deal with Laurel

I do hope next season we'll find out about Felicity's deadbeat dad and how evil he is

I got a LOST vibe- a man in a hatch who is never getting off an island

So, I'm sure that Laurel with her stunning lawyer/blackmailing skills is going to be the new D.A. and if Lance survives, he might be Chief of Police or at least get promoted, but who is going to be the new Starling City Mayor?

Oliver still has to learn Russian. It could still happen!

I think H.I.V.E. will probably feature in the two (I wish it could be more, but let's be realistic) Diggle episodes next year before emerging as a threat in season 4

Malcolm Merlyn: Loving Dad was the worst. "You're stronger than your brother. That's why you're the best". Damn, that's cold

I just want to know if Dig ever gets his bing search results! That plot thread has been hanging for an entire season.
