First Felicity and now Curtis. I do think Arrow has a problem with writing techy comic reliefs?

They are, although unwitting, creations of the bad guys, so this was best case scenario. At least no construct tried ti forcefully make them stay.

Yeah, I think Ray is the one character that has actually chose to move on so his dream life is with Felicity, a relationship that had a lot of potential.

LET'S BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF HER! *high five*

I think those lines have been about her not being into CERTAIN men. She's very choosey when she comes to her dudes, and it's understandable. She has only shown romantic interest for men when there's a strong emotional bond. I think (and I don't think LoT is going for that depth) that she feels safer pursuing women.

I don't think LoT is going for it, but I think there's a deeper reason for that. Sara spent the worst year of her life being victimized by a man on a ship full of men. Even if nothing was done to her, that's some fear inducing scenario. Arrow thankfully glosses over her stay on the Amzao, but it def wouldn't have been…

Yeah, that's more like saying, "I'm a kinsey 4-5"

I should have done that.

I'm ambivalent that I watched this ep after the Flash part of the Invasion crossover, and my pumped levels switched so fast. I was so on board with the fun of the DCTV crossover, but having AoS' more poignant, deeper, more pathos-ey style back kinda killed my buzz for tomorrow's Arrow.

I just binged the series today, and it has been one wild ride. The genre switching was delicious, the contrast between millennial banality and thriller exhilarating. I just loved how this how pulled this "murder mystery" that wasn't so without feeling like a cheat, because after all, it was all on Dory's head, and…

What I mean, it's not a relationship built on actual love, so we ware just assuming it's built on fidelity as well.

Logan mentions that their marriage is for legacy or something like that when Rory asks him if he is sure he wants to marry.

You know I really wish the AV Club payed more attention to Mom. It's one of the best sitcoms out there right now; with a mostly female cast and two female leads in their journey of bettering themselves and forming a community of support. It's like "Supporting Women" Sketch from SNL, but a lot more sarcastic and snippy…

I just realized I have been calling Paul Brian in another posts, he is forgettable!

But for real, I loved Emily and Lorelai stuff together a lot; it was overall a lot more compelling that Rory's stuff (which wasn't bad, but directionless millenial with open relationships is something less poignant than your good old mother/daughter drama trough the lens of loss)

I certainly got the impression that Odette and Logan's marriage is out of convenience, so while sleazy, I really don't think it was cheating, no one even calls it that.

I think that also Rory also was like this for me. She was very, very flawed, yet ultimately good, so she still was sympathetic to my eyes.

Rory's low level alcoholism felt like it could have become a plot point. She was inhaling the stuff!

But that's the thing! It could be kinda addressed by saying getting powers throws you body chemistry out of whack and impairing judgement, so IDK why they don't try an explanation that would go beyond "bad writing".

I think holiday episodes are more divisive because there are so many re-done tropes that, specially for a reviewer, juts make the episode lack any luster (lackluster? OMG it makes total sense) and making it tired by premise alone.
