I was wondering how Ra's was so much more rational and watchable in this episode than he was in season 3 of Arrow but then I realized that they made a point to comment on the fact that using the Lazarus Pit waters on yourself for too long slowly eats at your soul.

Yeah and CW apparently just bought Diggle a new helmet for his "Spartacus" costume and knowing what a small budget they have, I highly doubt they would waste that money on a dying character.

Yeah similar premise but pretty different stories :)

A Myron Bolitar movie would legit make me giddy with happiness. Excuse me while I fantasy cast Win and Esperanza…

Really? I enjoyed it and it looks like a lot of people did too but to each their own :)

I would love to for AV Club to do a review of this book. I just finished it and holy hell is it a mind trip. I have been a fan of Coben for years but this book is definitely one of his finest work yet.

Right? She hacked her way into an early parole and what just waltzed back into her apartment to get the bees? No way the police wouldn't seize those. And honestly, if she needed money so badly, why not just sell those bees to the government? I am sure the US military would find such technology pretty useful.

She looked so upset when she said pistachio too. I have no idea how Emily and Charlotte got through those lines without cracking up. I expect a lot of bloopers from that scene.

Constantine was so much fun that that was the only non Diggle flashback I actually paid attention to this season.

Oh no. Don't say that. Fantasizing about Bratva flashbacks is the only way I have been getting through the awful sledge that was this year's flash backs.

Oh I hadn't thought about that. I guess it makes sense then with their proposed 6 season plan. They will stretch out Oliver's 4th year into season 4 and 5 flashbacks and do Oliver's 5th year during season 6 (or if the show gets picked up for season 7, then they will stretch out his 5th year onto season 6 and 7)

I remember hating his wig so much in seasons 1 and 2. Now I would gladly take back the hideous wig if they would just stop. with. the. boring flashbacks already. It did make him younger but is startling to me how Stephen Amell is generally a good looking guy but it can all be changed with his hair style.

His husband is so cute. I will be so sad if they kill him off in season 5 but the foreshadowing is pretty heavy on this one.

Couldn't have said it better myself :)

Yep. Plus the writers are clearly investing a lot of time and effort into the Lance/Donna pairing which would give him even more to do on the show.

Is it though? Really what role does she play that isn't similarly filled by Thea or Diggle? All she really has is a really cool sonic device thing which as demonstrated by the fact that Sara used it first, any body can use.

The producers already said the death is permanent. After all the build up, I am going to be REALLY annoyed if they were lying. (This of course depends on who dies, if it's Diggle or Thea as my worst fears are, then I am heading the Resurrect Diggle/Thea Letter Writing Campaign to Arrow)

Mama Smoak is the actual literal best. It looks like she got a trailer according to twitter so it looks like she will be here to stay :)

Oh wow, I completely forgot about that. Maybe Evil Magic Dude trained Andy in his powers and Andy is seeking revenge after Oliver inevitably kills Evil Magic Dude in the flashbacks?

LOL. I was laughing until I realized how true it is. Waller was the first female not related to Oliver who a wasn't love interest to die.
