@Roswulf:disqus Start with the pilot, then skip ahead to episode six (which introduces Felicity Smoake) or episode seven (which introduces the Huntress).  You won't be missing anything in terms of the Starling City stuff, and anything you missed regarding Ollie's time on the Island will be recapped once Slade Wilson…

@avclub-080acdcce72c06873a773c4311c2e464:disqus  The Tina-Katie battle was great. The only thing missing was the theme music from the Kirk-Spock duel in "Amok Time".

Christina was a hundred times a better human being than Colton could ever hope to be. While he was complaining about his bacterial infection, Christina was doing her best to comfort him, holding his hand, bringing him water, before the medical team arrived.

Abi kept her injury a secret, because she didn't want to risk a medical evac. Unfortunately for her, as part of her deception she kept sitting out challenges, until even Probst was calling her out. Still, she kept struggling to the very end, even with her injury. For that I'm willing to admit a grudging respect. By…

@avclub-58b5e1181aef482ae9d3f57afb3baa76:disqus : Somehow Caleb can stand to live with Colton Cumbie. The man has to know about the skeleton's in Colton's closet. (No pun intended.)

But he's not the only producer. He gets a vote, and I got the impression he was overruled and decided to hold his piece… right up until Colton quit.

Isn't the amount of confessional time they devote to a cast member on screen a hint about how far they go in the game? Or is it because Vytas has a more compelling story (recovering drug addict, black sheep, etc.) compared to Caleb?

Sir Ystin isn't quite the same these days. (I think it's her new haircut. :) )

I think it's more like the closest anyone will ever see to a Planetary cartoon; while the over-the-top action is reminiscent of Ellis' twelve-issue run on The Authority, the quirky nature of the Dark Heart (and how The Atom solves it) remind me more of something the Planetary crew might wind up doing.

What are you upset about? From a Survivor gameplay standpoint, there was nothing wrong with it, and honestly, it doesn't seem like he was wrong about her.

I noticed that too. Are those sunburns, or is that a result of the grafts he got?

Magnet! Abi did that on purpose!

Artis strikes me as much more loquacious than Carter; he's getting the short end of the stick when it comes to screentime. It made sense earlier in the season, when Skupin was hurting himself, Lisa was an emotional wreck and Abi was lashing out at RC. What could Artis do to compete with all that? Add to that the fact…

That was a really awesome part. The best part is that Penner and Malcolm were not playing it up for the cameras; you get the feeling that they really are like this. (Those kids, though, were totally mugging for the cameras. :p )
