Thea developed into a great character since season 1 and it really is a shame that I felt nothing by the end of the episode. It was all just really meh. Nyssa was there which is always nice (‘sister wife’). Roy was there I think? I mean he barely did anything but change his mind neck snappingly quick and not give me…

I thought this was okay. There were one too many things that seemed pointless. Like Griffin, Pryce Chang, most of the first 5 episodes. Lots of things also made little sense. Karls decision to kill himself was so bizarre. Oscar to me was about as vanilla as a love interest can be, I literally had to look up his name.…

Ya I’m not really sure this potential redemption arc can be any good unless she dies. I mean it’s not like she robbed a couple of banks, this woman has killed a LOT of people and would have happily let the entire city blow up for money. Let her just be plain evil not everything needs a plot twist.

Right!?? The cops are gonna see you anyway so you might as well put one in his leg just for being a dick.

Agreed, this was okay. The lack of NTA and that terrible conflict helped for sure. Although Dinah looking hurt when Oliver said he doesn’t trust her and would rather go in a man(woman) short, made me wanna smoosh her beautiful face.

Yup you nailed it. The choice was between the ENTIRE CITY or one guy. A guy who by the way had been pretty murdery and interesting before the ruined it by making him Vince, but regardless was one guy. Would be interesting if they discussed the ethics in that choice but no bad writing leads us to this bullshit…

So true. They think their delivering a deep conflict but I think a majority of people are still still struggling to find any redeemable features to NTA.

Ohh boy that was just not good at all. Am I the only one that wasn’t invested at all in Dinah and Vince? Their relationship was just a nothing to me so her whole quest for vengeance just rang hollow. Now its completely justified to criticise original team arrow as they can be shitty people but I totally agree that the…

It is the only thing. I agree with you on literally every other thing which is weird for me. The lack of Salmon ladder still upsets me. Seeing Dinah on it would make this whole season perfect.

Ha it does feel like a random redshirt has been elevated for no reason. I also didn’t appreciate how he can suddenly go toe to toe easily with Diggle. Also I really like Anatoly and I love that he on his own shamed both Curtis and Rene. I was hoping that would humble them a little but nope there still being mega…

I’m with you on that. Thought they were building to her being obsessed with him and wanted all distractions gone story, but nope she was there so 3 grown adults could let a child leave a bunker without noticing.

“it’s a rare pleasure, watching a great actor play a great villain.”

Finally someone agrees with me! Cayden James is a dud of a villain.

Wouldn’t that be glorious though. All 3 die and we get murdering revenge Oliver and Diggle...... but ya your right not this show.

Ya confused on that myself. The bomb was there in one of the trucks so it seems all that data was legit sooo he’s not as smart as we’re told he is? I don’t know. I don’t find him as interesting as most and his motivation dull to me really so Prometheus wins the Magnificent Bastard battle royal any day.

No nope nopetiy no no! A video?? A fucking video!? The one thing I said last week that would destroy any interest I had in Cayden James was if the evidence that Oliver killed his son was a video that this genius inexplicably didn’t verify!

I also fear for the pay off of the Cayden James story. Will they go for a new character as the real antagonist or someone we’ve already met? The Al Ghuls are still running around somewhere right? And yes team arrow not being aware there maybe being manipulated after Prometheus makes no sense and frankly makes every…

This child tho! How you gonna walk into a heroes lair after he saved you and start throwing that man (who saved you!) any kind of shade! Appreciate how cool that shit is, sit next to your hot step mom and watch your Dad murder (or not I’m still not clear on that) a bunch of goons.

So we’re just doing Adrian Chase’ motivation but in reverse....... okay I guess we’ll see where it goes. I need whatever evidence Cayden James was given to be amazing and not in any way computer related. You’ve spent time showing me this man is a super genius with computers and can literally take planes out of the…

Gotta disagree on the killing thing. If they hadn’t had whole plots about the necessity of killing vs not killing then maybe the ambiguity would be interesting. Seeing that we sat through the morale dilemma Oliver faced and it’s still not particularly clear, I find it lazy and sometimes distracting.
