Not necessarily! Ron was put to brilliant use in "Best Burger"

I felt like Zed's decision not to undergo surgery was in line with what we know about her and how she has evolved as a character. Her visions used to torment her, but now they give her purpose. It may be a risk to go on despite the pain, but the rewards are worth it for Zed. This new revelation really gives me a

Agreed. He seems not to be paying any attention to the show, either. Half the details in the review are wrong, like confusing the names of our four main characters.

You mean our sake. Don't take my Barrowman away. I don't care how ridiculous the plots get, I'll take more Barrowman over less Barrowman any day. I mean, I watched that Starz season of Torchwood for God's sake.

This was a great episode, but I wish we could have seen this plot fleshed out more, both in terms of setting up the threat (and plausibility) of Brick's actions, and in terms of the effect Brick has had on the city - I mean, this is the third time in as many years that the Glades have been destroyed by a criminal

When Black Canary says her eyes are up here, Starling City listens.

I think Dig is serving as eyes-in-the-sky tactical support. Roy & Laurel don't have the presence of mind nor the tactical skills to coordinate in the field. It might help if we put a Playstation controller in Dig's hands.

So did everyone else, but they never found it, did they?

I thought all the scenes with Papa Flash were excellent. Shipp did excellent work tonight.

I was thinking the same thing. The satellite radio bit seemed like a poor runner-up to the potential in that scene.

DO they live together? I'd like to see proof! He always seems like Kramer coming into Thea's pad. Did Oliver even have any furniture to move in with? I always assumed he slept suspended by the knees from the salmon ladder, like some sort of bat-man.

She should ping his phone.

That little musical cue when they cut back is so off-putting. But it reminds me of something…

Sword… Maybe.

Hold up. Dinah doesn't know about the assassins. Just "bad people." And Laurel *is* a lawyer. She can make people suffer in many ways.

A number of terrible life choices.

I was a little confused about the Thea-Arrow knowledge database myself. That fact seemed a bit muddled, but she doesn't seem to. She's awfully casual around Oliver and gives no indication to the Arrow that she knows a thing about him other than his vendetta against her daddy dear.

The back half of this season is going to be a magical place.

Well said. I usually try to say it better on here, but this time I simply can't. Deadman would be way too magical for Arrow, unfortunately. Lazarus Pit is just this side of plausible, and too ingrained in the Ra's mythology. I feel that same ironic disappointment.

Exactly. They could have begun this plot a month ago and had us salivating out of anticipation. Instead, the show rings its bell and expects our appetites to be instantly whet at the ramifications of plot points only just revealed.
