Pretend that the Queen family is essentially a more action oriented Bluth Family and things make more sense.

The ads for this keep using the tagline "Revenge is the only dish served."

So cheesy.

So Ollie is going up against The Condiment King? Or could it be some other food- or chief base supervillan that I don't know about.

I think part of the problem with Laruel is that they honestly have never had any real idea what to do with her. The first season they gave her fuckall to do, she was just a bit player in Tommy's plot-line really. Then Tommy let a burning building fall on him they dropped a burning building on him so Ollie could learn that killing people is wrong. Then Season Two rolled around they didn't know what to do with her so it was all "YAY! BOOZE AND PILLS YUM YUM!" which kept her occupied until poo poo finally got rolling then she was a secondary player in Serah's plot-line. and now here she is getting a plot-line of her very own, and honestly it feel's more like they are just checking boxes off a list. okay let's see here Number 1 Dead Relative for motivation: check, Failed first attempt: Check, and Mentor to teach her how to fight: well poo poo, we already established that she can fight so what do we do? Ah gently caress it, Check. It honestly quite formulaic and that they are just going through the numbers with her and combined with the sometimes awful dialog they give her really brings her character down.

Seriously though, is someone feeding Slade? That question about the prison in The Flash got me thinking.

They just toss him a wild animal. He fights it, tears off what he eats then his guards have the rest buried in New Jersey.

The flashbacks were the highlight of season one for me. The present stuff was just boring predictable, Ollie honestly felt like a Mary-Sue at times, also as much as I love Barrowman he didn't really feel enough like a big threat or that interesting as a villain. The Stuntwork was great though and Tommy actually acted like a human being and had a pretty decent character arc. The flashbacks however were really good. They were kind of like how I imagined a TV series based on Far Cry 3 would be like.
Season two flashbacks though however started losing me after Spade finally went the full crazy revenge psycho. It was like they didn't know what to do between then and the final showdown between Ollie and Slade. Now season three has completely lost me. It just feels like they don't know what to do with them now.

Or Oliver just winds up thinking he's an ostrich and spends an episode with his heard buried in a pile of garbage behind the club.

EDIT: while in this state he also mistakes The a for his mate and whenever the Douchejockey tries to to get close to Ollie squawks at him and tries to peck at him.

The trailer for the midseason premiere of The Flash gaves us our first look at Pied Piper, so I guess our douchey DJ is out of the running for that position.

There's still music meister. Although in all probability Merlyn is going to kill him so Thea can realize just how much of a oval office Merlyn is.

Brick as a comic character does have powers. I do agree that he isn't quite as big as he used to be.

Part of me refuses to believe you, but the rest of me worked IT for four years and knows better.

Last weekend my parents found they had an adware oh their computer. Since it linked to ads related to webcams they thought that the program came from OBS since that program works with the computers webcam.

My favorite bit is the one right after that. Frank Calmly puts down the grenade launcher, picks up his rifle, shoots the bald dude in the head then kneecaps the guy with dreadlocks.

What's great about this episode is how often the juxtapose Oliver not killing someone and Diggle killing dozens of people.
Also, I love the Senator's plan.
1.build the hospital in the Soviet bloc
2.get captured
3. Talk my way free
4. Ride that hostage negotiator love all the way to the White House!

If the GOP is to reclaim the White House after embracing all the crazies these past eight years they are going to have to take some drastic steps.

Well Lance obviously. Then He's going to get with her in season 5 where a flashback reveals that everything that has happened was part of a big complicated plan by Ollie to sleep with every member of the Lance family as a bet to Tommy who turns out to be alive.
