Yeah but neither is an MIT grad taking a low wage retail job unless they're really strapped for cash. I was just making the point that the tie-in comics are only canon until it's inconvenient for them to be. it

Hey its a recession man, you take a job where you can get one.

I think that if you're frustrated and disappointed that a character died on a TV show then the writers are doing their job well.

Not if the reason you are frustrated and disappointed is that the death was poorly written

Just because it's a shocking sucker punch death doesn't mean it was poorly written. I think the only reason y'all are saying that is because there was 0 resolution afterward. We should probably reserve judgment till the next episode at least.

My fault, never meant to imply this death was poorly written, just that there are reason to be upset at a TV death that don't mean the writers did a great job

As ridiculous and implausible as it is, how hysterical would it be if she was just seriously injured and the promo was a fakeout? This whole argument would have been a total waste.

The gravestone shown on the promo could have been from when she was "dead" after being lost at sea

Also, was "The Count" the singer from some pop band or something? He strikes me as someone who could be a singer from Vampire Weekend or similar, in full show costume.

He was Lincoln Lee from Fringe: http://fringe.wikia.com/wiki/Lincoln_Lee

I was at NC Comiccon this weekend and Barrowman was there. Someone asked him how he felt about being cast as the father of someone so close to his own age, and his was response was basically "I know something you don't, keep watching."

I'm guessing he's been in a Lazarus pit more than once maybe?

Confirmed, Merlyn is actually Jack Harkness

Except the actor has the physicality to back it up. Laurel's actress doesn't. She was swinging that staff like a baseball bat, it looked painfully stupid and awkward and unwieldy. And why would you even use a staff if you've been training in boxing? Nothing about what she did made any sense.

But then there was a lot of cringe-worthy stuff in this episode, from the blatant law-breaking by Laurel setting up the mook to be killed in prison if he didn't talk to the 'one of the aldermen has a pacemaker that has to be recharged(?!)' I mean I'm nothing like a cardiologist but seriously? Also Felicity's sudden nano-quantum-electrical microchip engineering skills. Why is she working as a personal assistant again? Maybe one of those howlers an episode I'd be able to overlook but one right after another, sheesh.

She could have been bluffing. Its not like this show has a history of being completely incompetent when it comes to understanding how the legal system works

It must suck being another Amell though. Imagine being at a family reunion next to Stephen and Robbie when you're Dave Amell, chubby junior accountant.

Pfft, we all know the Amells are a race of genetically modified clones kept in the basement of the CW studio. They pull out another one when the need a leading man for a new show.
