Nobody likes you.
Everybody hates you.
You're gonna lose.

Smile, you fuck.
Hey, guys, do us a favor: Before you choose this opportunity to state that a hyped-up superhero show isn't nearly as good as Big Media would have you believe...don't. We get it, SHIELD sucks, Arrow rules, you're hip. Don't be a douchebag.

If you think that, along the way, you're not going to fail... you're blind.

There's no one I've ever met, no matter how successful they are, who hasn't said they had their failures along the way.

My job finally gives me an evening shift after weeks of midday work, and it's tonight. :smithicide:

SHIELD has this frustrating tendency to do these really annoying quips every other line. It does not take the less is more approach and will shove a "joke" or "witty" banter when it's completely inappropriate or just plain not funny.

Welcome to pretty much every Joss Whedon series.

Double post, but something I just saw in an interview...

(Spoilery if you don't want to know anything about new characters for the season. According to the interview the character is introduced in tonight's episode though.)

quote:

How will the introduction of Black Canary (Caity Lotz) push Laurel in a new direction?
Guggenheim: You'll get your first glimpse of Black Canary in the premiere. Laurel needed a bit of a makeover. Last year, as a result of her job at CNRI and her relationship with Tommy, it sometimes felt like she was in a different show. One of our main goals this year was to really bring her into the fold in a way that made her an integral part of the stories we were telling. Black Canary's appearance is going to coincide with Laurel really struggling with a great number of things. We're throwing a lot of things at Laurel this year.

Non-spoiler version: The producers know how Laurel's world felt mostly disconnected from everything and part of a different show, and want to fix that this year.

They should disconnect Laurel's world from this show and make a new show all about Laurel.

Then they should cancel it before it airs and not have Laurel ever make an appearance on Arrow again.

I will actually be watching this one live tonight. And probably every week. I like this show a lot and will break from my delayed TV viewing for it.

There's an Arrow comic book that sorta follows the television plot line and I wonder if the season premiere will have scenes from the most recent issue. There's this part where Oliver visits the Glades only to get accosted by three thugs who recognize him, and he just brutally kills them when they attack him.

It's a TV show about people with superpowers and has Lucifer from Supernatural as the bad guy.
