Darhk didn't know until 4x15 and Merlyn until I think like 1x20 so it took a while.

To be fair that was because of unnecessary drama and loss of focus and lack of planning.

Eh probably not till he's 14. Because that's the responsible age.

Oh I could see it now. William having to be shielded from the brutal reality of Oliver's life whilst being a bargaining chip if kidnapped. Dear God it'd be a pain.

Yep.

I mean you're definitely not wrong.

Filler, repetitive plots and twists and drawn out underdeveloped villains and nonsensical time travel and (personally) a main character who only comes across as more and more unsympathetic with each episode. Then again maybe that last part was on purpose. Nah it wasn't.

Yep.

Agreed I liked him as much as I could in that last scene, but Oliver isn't ready to raise a kid and it would be a real drag on his heroism, etc.

I mean she's hot. If that helps at all.

Yeah the back half of this season especially has been just the worst.

I mean maybe.

I'm pretty sure Days of Future Past had scaled down ones.

I mean I get that (Merlyn) but at the same time I kinda love it with Wells. Because Cavanagh and multiverse.

The reveal depending on his motive could help, but it's too late to really fully explore it.

Thawne?

Surprising, this is Barry.

Normally I'd be bothered more, but she is just a great villain.

Also true. The earlier buildups and reveal worked. Like that little I like it Thawne gave to Cisco when he named him.

I mean I still like it and the reveal, but yeah.
