I admit during The Flash crossover when Laurel said "if you show anyone I'll kill you" I mentally added, "Actually my girlfriend, who used to be my sister's girlfriend will kill you. She hasn't finished training me yet." Laurel and Nyssa have a chemistry I never saw with Ollie.

Do we know they didn't?

Olicity: So THAT happened! My only complaint: why did Oliver take her glasses off???

I like the idea that he didn't come back alone more than not coming back whole. Mostly because I can see a quest to expel [insert demon here] more than I can see someone playing "Where's Renard?".

As much as I like that theory, Eobard Thane told Harrison Wells that he and his wife were due to build their particle accelerator in like 2020 and that would be too late to help him. I don't remember the exact speech, but he did make it sound like the particle accelerator had something to do with Barry getting his…

Going by broadcast network (soap opera) rules. Once they have slept together, they aren't related, or at least not closely related, but usually not related at all. If they were saving themselves because Ray wasn't over his wife or for some other reason, they could be related, but they've been in bed so I'm doubting…

Which is reason number one why the DA didn't bring the case in the first place. Frankly, Detective Lance isn't thinking in terms of how you convict someone or the legalities. He's running on emotion and obsession. The DA dropping the case at this time was the best way to catch and convict Oliver later. If Ollie does…

Laurel isn't the lead DA. She works for the office. The head of the office knew Ray had confessed and that Quentin had no case against Oliver so the office decided to drop all charges. She was the messenger, not the decider. She may have talked to her boss and laid out why it should go that way, but I don't think she…

Actually, I can rationalize that. "Your Honor, due to Oliver Queen turning himself in as the Arrow, we are seeking confirmation of Roy Harper's confession. I request a warrant to search the home and business owned by his girlfriend Thea Queen. Then if they find something to implicate Ollie, he goes from there. They…

I agree with all of this. But then, I like Laurel and think she's come a long way.

I didn't see Superman Returns, but I kind of love Ray. He doesn't belong in the grim and gritty world of Arrow, but he's kind of delightful. I have less feeling for Ray as The Atom, but Ray as Ray, solid.

Correction: Sven did NOT force his way into a house and attack a woman. KNUTE did that. Sven got into a cab trying to get to the Hibernaculum. Then his instincts took over and he attacked the cabbie. It's not a good thing, but Sven was not a granny killer.

Yes, and no. Oregon does have the death penalty but no one has actually been executed since May of 1997 almost 20 years. Plus the Governor has placed a moratorium on executions since 2011. No matter what the relatives of a victim might feel, people don't get executed in Oregon. The point of having Grimms is partly…

I feel bad for Juliette here, but I don't think Nick has done that much to be condemned for. He got hit with a huge curve out of left field. Juliette not only didn't tell him she was a Hexenbiest, she also told him that she thought he was capable and willing to MURDER HER for something she had no control over. This,…

Even going after Sven that way left me a little uneasy. They knew, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that pulling him out of the Hibernaculum was an automatic and immediate death sentence. Of all three brothers, Sven was the most innocent?. He didn't break into a house to attack someone, he got in a cab trying desperately…

The pitfalls of a real life pregnancy being put into the show combined with the decision to make the kid Nick's. We can hand wave that in world, it hasn't been a year, or that Hexenbeists have a different gestational period, or that Hexenbeist/Grimm children have a really odd gestational period; but I've watched soap…

Again, I shouldn't have to know the Flash mythology in order to see the importance of Iris. Since she is an important part of the Flash mythos, I hope the show does handle her story well. But telling me that I HAVE to love and accept Iris, because she is well portrayed in a media I don't read makes no sense. I have to…

Look I'll freely admit, I have never read a Flash comic book, or a Green Arrow one, or The Atom, or Suicide Squad or any of the heroes and villains that we have seen on Flash and Arrow. All I can judge Iris/Barry by is what has been on screen in this show. Sadly the Barry/Iris romance has been handled with the same…

Elderly Man River https://www.youtube.com/wat… a total classic.

My first introduction to Stan Freberg was in junior high school when a teacher played History of the United States Part One, the Early Years. It was a great way to catch the attention of a group of kids and get them into history. After that, I would notice his touch in advertisements. He was a great, great talent and…
