Since they use Portland OR as a cityscape, I’ve always just assumed Central City is where Portland is here.

I swear this episode is the first time Iris has ever had internal conflict that had nothing to do with her love life.

I loved that the lesson everyone had to learn today was to take the long route and stop rushing everything. Death is no longer imminent. They can take all the time Oliver gave them to figure it all out.

#justiceforhan finally wins out

I think it’s one of the two poles that Trek has been trying to thread its way between for most of its existence. It doesn’t help that it was Gene Roddenberry’s take toward the end of his life, and I think a lot of people miss that it was also just the late-period iteration of it. Bones and Spock were constantly…

Praxy’s suddenly full of weird, inexplicable reactions to random things lately.

Having seen all of the first 3 episodes, as well, I wholeheartedly disagree. Yes, the pace is somewhat languid, but I, personally, had zero problem with that. Things felt, to me, like they had time to breathe and get fleshed out, relationships are well-established, etc.

I really like optimistic Trek — we don’t nuke ourselves; society gets more inclusive; quality of life will improve for most people — I think there is historical precedent for that. I don’t really like Pollyanna Trek — humans evolve beyond all flaws; there’s no more interpersonal conflict — there is no real precedent…

Picard always admired Data and viewed him as a man coming to terms with sentience and existence in an almost childlike way that Picard always respected. Picard, especially, in Data-heavy episodes of TNG and the movies definitely viewed Data as a friend and someone he cared for almost like a brother.

Claire Daines also is confusing to follow in the dark and being able to tell if she’s going to stop or turn or what.

I have no idea why this is happening, but hey, have a million replies from me about your walls. 

Maybe if OP has only seen S1? But yeah, any show that gives us a whole episode exclusively about Sara’s feelings about death definitely cares about character development. 

Imagine Rory and... Rory. 

TBH I assume the show kind of forgot, like they always forget that Sara and Laurel still have a living mom. 

I WORRY ABOUT SIN! The list of omissions was initially much longer and included her, Helena, and some others, most of whom were either solid supporting, or were people with good in them somewhere who went wrong somehow. Wish she could have come back.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for the comment about Roy’s arm. Made me laugh out loud this morning. 

The wig!

This is why I say unlikely: https://www.tvfanatic.com/2020/01/tv-ratings-arrow-hits-non-crossover-season-high-with-green-arrow/ It’s the highest-rated non-crossover episode this season. It’s not a personal hope, it’s a professional opinion based on relevant data. 

So Oliver reversed every major death except Laurel-1 and William’ mom. He couldn’t bring her back for him? To be fair it’s never said specifically one way or the other. Felicity says that she put a tracker in him when he left Star City which implies that he came to live with them and, by extension, that his mother is…

And I am reminded how cool Ragman was and what a shame they retired him so early. Is too late to have Rory join Team Flash?
