Tiggum posted:Has Felicity being Jewish even been mentioned before? It seemed to come out of nowhere this episode. quote:Felicity has a Jewish background. She has mentioned that she is Jewish to Oliver Queen in Year's End when he wishes her a Merry Christmas and she replies, "I'm Jewish," and a second time to Barry Allen in Three Ghosts, when he asks what her holiday plans are and she responds "Lighting my menorah". In addition, when she sees John and Lyla's new baby, she said "Mazal Tov", a Jewish phrase for congratulations. At Sara's burial, she performed a jewish custom by throwing dirt onto her coffin.

Did anyone get a good GIF of Oliver's face when Felicity was rambling on about them being practically engaged, but not really? That was priceless.

Speaking of, I'd really like to see a show break the cliche and just have the character realize exactly what the person constantly slipping and misspeaking is hiding. Just a little "Okay you clearly found the ring..."

There is no way that its Felicity in the grave from this shooting. It looked like the funeral did not take place during the winter. More importantly Barry is not busy with Zoom right now, and if it was Felicity the funeral would be a couple days after the event.

As long as Barrowman continues to pop into places randomly and exclaim "I'm Ra's al Ghul", I'm perfectly happy. The more outlandish, the better. "How did you get Big Belly Burger here in Nanda Parbat?" "I'm Ra's al Ghul!" Eventually they bring Manu back to pop out of bushes and point out the obvious to various characters, followed by Barrowman appearing out of nowhere to explain how he stole this week's macguffin with "I'm Ra's al Ghul!". Every. Episode. And it would be perfection.

Did I miss something or during the flash back, wasn't the purpose of bringing the girl with him that she was an experienced scuba diver and could show him how to do it? Oliver didn't use scuba gear....so why was she there, he just swam.

Just burned through all three and a half seasons in a couple weeks. Even having some things spoiled by watching The Flash first didn't ruin my enjoyment. I don't know how I slept on this show for so long. It's not groundbreaking television like Breaking Bad or Jessica Jones, but drat is it fun. I seem to be in the minority, but I liked season 3 I'm a sucker for League of Assassins antics and sword fights (bummer that the lovely Suicide Squad movie means we will likely never see Katana again). It might have helped that I binge watched it, so I didn't feel a lull like a lot of people seem to complain about. Following Manu Bennett absolutely killing it as Slade Wilson couldn't have helped either. Anyways, all praise be to Barrowman.

Someone in one of the season 3 threads said during it "I wonder if this season would have been better binging" because the story progresses slowly in parts, and I think the answer is, yes. I didn't like the hong kong parts and Cupid was a bit OTT, but I liked it other than that.

I jack poo poo about Professional Wrestling but Amell looked like he got his rear end kicked before he managed to tag in his partner. Dunno if that was just part of the show or not, but nothing seemed award worthy.

The tricky part about celebrity guest spots in wrasslin is that you can't/shouldn't let the celebrity guest star bury the guys you're running your promotion with. In a week they're going to be gone and your regular guys are what you're selling tickets with. If Amell comes in and just shits all over Stardust, it makes him look like a bitch and hurts the audience's ability to take him seriously. Amell's fight hit a really good mix of giving Amell cool and impressive poo poo to do while still making his partner and his opponents look good too.

Amell looked like Rick Flair compared to some of the guys they've tried similar matches with.

Yeah, the main thing for Amell is that they were able to give him more physical stunts than a typical celebrity guest, and he did a good job of executing/selling them. Even something as simple as takes some effort.

Neo_Crimson posted:I jack poo poo about Professional Wrestling but Amell looked like he got his rear end kicked before he managed to tag in his partner. Dunno if that was just part of the show or not, but nothing seemed award worthy. His role in that tag team fight was that of the Face in Peril. His job is to get beat up to the point where the crowd is cheering waiting waiting for the hot tag of the other partner to come in and wreck poo poo. He did way more than almost any other celebrity guest did. He was fantastic. Took Bumps and managed to not look terrible doing flips to counter moves and kept the match going with no botches. He didn't get any real offense besides a kick, forearms and some basic tosses because that would be dangerous as hell to the other performers having someone untrained doing those moves. Most other celebrity guests get like their one spot down do that spot and then their actual wrestler teammate does everything else. Amell managed to do an extended face in peril segment pulled off perfectly.

Dunno if that was just part of the show or not, but nothing seemed award worthy. That's how tag matches are booked 99% of the time. One guy plays the hero in peril, who constantly almost tags in his partner. Then when they finally get it the partner cleans house. Amell playing that role was pretty crazy because that's the guy that takes all the bumps. But on the other hand you obviously can't have a celebrity be the hot tag who comes in and takes out all the pro wrestlers, so just to be able to pull off a regular tag match formula with a celebrity guest is impressive.

Jay Leno put Hulk Hogan in an armbar and made him look like a bitch. There was a really fun Dennis Rodman v Macho Man match once where one of them shoved the other in a port a potty then rolled it down a hill, I don't remember which. Surprisingly good celebrity wrestler: Snooki

See also: Maria Menounos, a returning Trish Stratus. And apparently Snooks was drunk as gently caress for her 1 minute off-site taping, so it took all day to film. --- I feel if Barrowman wasn't so excellent, they'd have written Merlin out of the show after S1. His entire "Thea's real dad" arc was put in so they can make him a successful terrorist everyone sort-of trusts.
