It's been 5 months. The Arrowverse sticks as close as it can to real time. See also Barry waking up 9 months after his appearance on Arrow.

A straight cis gendered male being attracted to a straight legal aged cis gendered female is creepy now? Do you think all the gay fans who love CW shows and actors like Ian Somerholder, and Tom welling are creepy as well?

Speaking of which I can't believe that that was the third episode. I realized while writing this that they have the Flash cross-over episodes this season, which are supposed to introduce the bad guy in Arrow's episode 7. That might mean that we have some of these storylines kind of accelerated a bit in order to get them resolved by episode 6 or 7, and it wouldn't surprise me if that acted as a sort of mid-season finale so that the very end of episode 7 introduces the bad guy and episodes 8 for both shows can be their own kind of mini-event. At least, I don't really see them working Barry and The Flash's storylines smoothly into this current League of Assasins/Ra's/Merlyn/Thea/Laurel situation.

But who knows, it's Arrow, so maybe they'll just blast through 4 more complete story arcs for everyone before this season is over.

I think they've said the idea of the crossover is to have it integrated into each show's season arc, rather than to just be a standalone event.

Apparently in the script Sara's line in the premiere, "Laurel Lance, always trying to save the world" was actually "Dinah Laurel Lance..." but I guess they changed it for airing.

She was definitely called that in the pilot

I'm not sure how skinny waif Laurel, who's been in school or an office job all her life, would think she'd be able to survive in a lifestyle that Sara failed at.

Man, that Ollie's just a gormless prettyboy oaf who's never had to fight for anything in his whole life. He's never going to survive on this island!

The thing that cracks me up about this season's flashbacks is that apparently Waller needed a covert ops agent in Hong Kong, so she chooses white-bread Ollie for the job? Totally inconspicuous, guys.

No the best part is the fact she already has someone who can do everything Ollie's doing and she's just using him to monitor Ollie.

They should have a several-episode mini-arc that is just all the poo poo that Roy is up to while he's off-screen. Could actually be funny if he's been doing "big deal" stuff in the background.

A major time jump wouldn't make sense to me thematically since we'd be skipping past the important mourning period and especially how Team Arrow handles Thea. And it would skip past the immediate "What now?" for Team Arrow.

Arrow has always had its own time sync up with real world time so 5 week break for us = 5 weeks pass for the characters. I expect we'll jump in on them searching for Ollie who they think is just missing

I'm not going to wade through 12 hours or whatever of poo poo television at the beginning for it to maybe get better. It's the same sunk cost fallacy people who try to defend the awful Final Fantasy 13 use. If your beginning is poo poo, you're poo poo.

Just skip to the start of the good episodes, give it a try and then watch the early ones later if you feel like it. When did people forget how to television?

:ohdear: I liked all three Blade movies...

For unpopular opinion #2, can Laurel get a training montage or a time skip or something? Watching her fight dudes with guns when she has a few weeks of boxing training and a nightstick is annoying as poo poo and takes me out of the action. She can't even do the sweetest flips imaginable like a certain other member of Team Arrow. Since even Oliver acknowledged her, she's obviously a permanent fixture going forward, so at least give me some handwaving to explain why she can be out there when she can't even land on a van roof without eating poo poo and almost breaking a leg.

No because Laurel's natural progression into the role of badass is much better

Only good parts of the finale were Ray imploding and the Lances scene and Nyssa. The rest was mostly not terrible, it was just there. I wish I'd seen this before the Agents of Shield finale cause it's just paling compared to that.
