What do Americans think of Blackthorne's American accent? I think it's pretty good but I'm not much of a judge.

I'm so accustomed to him using it (between Arrow and The Dresden Files) that it's a bit weird hearing his natural voice. You know, like Alexis Denisof and David Anders?
The accent's perfectly fine, but he's got such a bad lisp that hish wordsh all schmush togedja like disch.

It's tough listening to him sometimes.

I liked McKenna a lot, for the brief time we got to spend with her. She was a civilian, but as a cop, it seemed like she could have handled Oliver and his crazy world back then in Season 1, before it was as insanely comic-booky as it is now.

It helped that Janina Gavankar is one of the most gorgeous women I've ever seen, even among the ridiculously beautiful women in all the Berlantiverse shows. I'm sure she won't return, though.

You wouldn't want the gloves to make contact with the top because then that fake leather makes a horrible squeaky sound when it rubs.

Well, every other character on the show besides Ollie has full sleeve costumes. Clearly Dinah and Ollie will be a romance next season, at which point Ollie will piss her off, they'll break up, and they'll spend a couple of seasons being really awkward.

He wasn't that bad on Dresden Files.

I just assume he's roleplaying the long-term effects of alcoholism.

I mean I hear they went full dumb with it but I only caught a couple episodes of the season before I just kind of stopped. It wasn't like Flash where I literally could take no more of it but I just didn't feel I needed to watch anymore.

Even though 90% of that trailer was S5, what we saw of S6 was really well shot. Like so unlike most of the last few seasons, but I'm guessing they just used a lot of their best looking shots for the trailer.

Also, where's the goatee?

That's going to be the big finale moment. Kind of like Superman putting on the suit having the suit CGIed onto him.

Oliver defeats his biggest foe, and then you get a 5 month timeskip. You hear Felicity's voice "Oliver, he's back". Rambo gear up montage, with the last bit being adjusting his van dyke. LOGO.

ALTERNATELY

Oliver and a Canary, but you can't tell which, are sparring in low light so you only get their silhouettes. Oliver dodges a high kick, but gets caught with a left jab and knocked to the floor. He raises his hands in submission, then flips back his hood revealing the beard.

Then he says "So much for the tolerant left"

LOGO



You never find out which Canary it is so that maybe the internet will shut up.

They won't though.

Random props getting destroyed in these action scenes are what make them great. They just stopped using them completely around season 3 and decided that fight scenes in uninteresting flat-surface, dimly lit spaces was good enough and it's not. The best fight scene of all of last season was the one between Ollie and Adrian with about 4 episodes left when they're just going crazy on each other and smashing through walls and poo poo. Give the fights at least some gravity. Warehouses are just poo poo cinematically.

That may very well be but the pilot was pretty bad. I even recall many regulars in here panning the show based on the pilot. I never said it was a lovely show or that I would never watch it, I said

So gimmie some time, I still got 7 seasons of Supernatural to wrap up.
