Is every episode gonna end on a downer like this? And I don't mean downer like "Oh I'm sad now" I mean like "This is dumb just stop"

Yes. Double down on the lovely Olicity drama. Can we just have Felicity in the god damned grave already? I guess this at least opens us up to the far more tolerable Mr. Terrific as in-house hacker/technerd.

Felicity: "You were on that island, alone" I don't think Oliver has spent a single loving minute on that drat island by himself yet.

After Felicity escapes bees hopefully she can go get an apartment with Patty Spivot, Jesse Wells, and Henry Allen.

I thought it was nice that Laurel got to do some lawyering again. I don't know what parallel universe would allow a prosecutor to put her own father on the stand and interrogate him though.

nooneofconsequence posted:Who writes this crap. Whoever it is, did they have to turn Felicity into the most strident, unforgiving harpy in the show? I mean seriously; Olie hosed half of the city before the ship wreck and all Felicity cares about is that there is one single illegitimate child out of his past. They could do an episode called "Delivery Man" and show all of Oliver's bastard children coming out the woodwork all over the world. This episode made me feel the same way I did when I watched the Walking Dead episode where Rick left Carol by herself in that lovely town because he thought she had killed the influenza victims and so he couldn't trust her anymore. I haven't watched that show since.

Oh no, its gonna be Mr. Terrific's husband in the grave, which gives him the impetus to join the team as resident super hacker, steal John's stupid helmet, and have a very special relationship with Oliver as he too explores his budding bisexuality!

You can think it's bullshit, but she's spelled it out pretty clearly. I definitely didn't like the snarky tone they had her taking for most of this episode though, she was coming across like Oliver had broken it off with her instead of vice-versa.

I think this is a good opportunity to re-stress the fact that, well, it cannot possibly be stressed enough how completely and totally none of Felicity's business it is what Oliver decided to do with William. On the grand schemey scale of people who should have any say whatsoever in anything that goes on with William, the most important would obviously be Samantha, his mother. A couple steps down from that might presumably be the other friends and family members that Samantha has allowed into William's life. Very, very far below that tier might perhaps...conceivably...be Oliver Queen, if only based on the tentative case that he is William's father and that he can't really be called a bad father, given the circumstances, nor do we have much reason to suspect he would be. At the absolute subterranean nadir, leagues upon miles below the crust of the planet, far within a shadowy realm beyond the reaches of light and life, enveloped by profane whispers and the overpowering scent of acid...lies any say Felicity should have at all in this situation. It's just...it's none of her business. But she made it her business because that's the character, because she's incredibly, consistently self-possessed and makes everyone's problems all about herself. Heck, today she even managed to make Cupid's issues all about her own issues! It's bewildering and, heck, actually kind of impressive how strong and how persistent of a character trait they've managed to make this.

What BrianWilly said above. Oliver consistently blames himself for everything bad hat happens. Felicity never misses an opportunity to blame Oliver also.

This show needs more colorful costumes for the heroes/ villains. I mean I get it that their costumes are different dark colors (supposedly), but all I see in the fight scenes is people in black costumes fighting, and I swear at some point I thought Diggle was punching Thea when they ambushed Cupid. Though, granted I am semi colorblind. Also, drat, if the season didn't convince someone that Felicity is now consistently a terrible character, the last two episodes should do it. Then, again, I can't remember a good written relationship for this show and there's little hope that the next one for Oliver (and probably Laurel) is going to be fun.

I hate the direction of those show. At this point, I feel like the finale reveal is going to be Oliver telling the story of how he met and married Laurel to their kids, only for her to die. At the end of the story, her kids are the same kids as How I met your mother and they're just like "DAD SHUT UP AND GO ASK FELICITY OUT ALREADY," like HIMYM......because its that bad

Yeah I've been watching since season 2 but tonight was the first time I really considered just turning an episode off. I don't care who is in the grave and the level of stupid manufactured drama exceeds even CW levels of awful. This poo poo would be right at home on daytime TV with General Hospital. gently caress, this was bad.

I try not to bitch too hard about a bad episode because every show has them and they're just a fact of life. But this was the perfect summation of what's being going wrong with the show since season 3. They had something promising going with the new and fresh tone at the start of this season but we're right back to endless angst between Oliver and Felicity. Emily Bett Rickards is pretty great but I don't want to hear her do the half-sob/half-talking poo poo ever again.
