This season will make for much easier viewing now that we no longer need to worry about whether they can fix the show.

I'm betting Thea dies midseason, Lance dies in the spring premiere and Diggle dies in episode 21 so the writers can fulfill their fantasy of putting Felicity and Oliver relationship drama front and center for 41 minutes in every episode of season 6.

I know you're joking but they need to make a decision on Oliver and Felicity. Either they are together or not because trying to play this down the middle is hurting the show.

I was perfectly happy having forgotten all that nuke bullshit and I assumed the apartment was just set reuse until now, thanks jerks!

I assume Flashpoint wrote out that nuke. Problem solved.

I missed the first minute, did they include the Flash clip so people get the John Jr. thing?

And why Deadshot is back.

I do wish they used Dig more in the previous seasons bringing the counter point of a solider. Dig has killed people before, granted under the authority of the government, and realizes that sometimes death is the only option.

Oh hey I just realized the bit about Tommy being off in Chicago practicing medicine was a Chicago Med reference. :haw:

I've never seen a show so brazenly say, we love this guy and its awesome he got this role too bad he couldn't make it 4th wall reference.

Also, I know it's obvious but it's cool that Ray and Sara were included with the Arrow 100/Crosssover because of their origins in the show.

Unbeknownst to Quentin, he recently picked up a strange coin and became possessed by the demon inside who is slowly taking over control of his mind.

Third, because it misses the voltron-troll. She's both Prometheus AND Black Canary.

I'm hoping it's the "Rick & Morty"-style thing where she's from an alternate timeline/universe where everyone else died, and she left to find one where she was dead, but her friends weren't. I almost don't even care if anything comes of that backstory. She can even keep the Canary Cry!

I want it to be an escaped Black Siren loving with Ollie and forming the Legion of Doom from Legends.

I know they would never do it but it would be nice to have a crossover with Ollie, Barry, and Kara where it was just them interacting as their civilian selfs. Sometimes its hard to realize why Barry and Oliver (and Kara) are friends if this is the only time they see each other, you know?

Katie Cassidy is amazing as Black Syren though.

Actually, I think they threw everyone off that sent this week. Prometheus presumably already knew Oliver was the Green Arrow. That was something she was just figuring out.

Evelyn already told Prometheus who is on team arrow.

I know they can't do it but I kinda wish that if Oliver is revleaed to be the Arrow and rather than choose the mask chooses the public servant route to further distinguish him from the whole Batman but with a bow thing.

I mean I know Barry is busy with a speedster god but maybe give him a call and have him search the city or something?

That fight scene between Adrian and Ollie was legitimately one of the best fight scenes in the past three seasons. Finally someone realized that fighting in an open warehouse or on a rooftop or on a parking lot is not interesting to watch. Give me two really angry people lunging at each other and breaking shelves and punching each other through walls. It was like 30 seconds long and it was the best we've gotten in a long time.

The actor who plays Chase is pulling off a serious Flash Season 2 Zoom vibe. Once that actor was finally able to let loose cause it was known that he was the villain he became so much better. This actor is still really good when he was just Chase, but now that he's allowed to chew the scenery as the villain, he is chewing the hell out of the scenery and I love it.

Also, they have done a decent job of pointing out that hand to hand, Ollie is good but not untouchable.

Yeah, I get what you're saying too. That's just Oliver. His whole thing is to dictate morality from a soap box all while he's clearly the most morally questionable guy in the room. It always comes off a little hypocritical but he's also usually right. And filled with self loathing.

Its ok to kind of hate Oliver and think he's an rear end in a top hat, because he clearly does.

Known murder Barry Allen pointed this during the first crossover. The Arrow is a dick, Oliver needs to be better and could inspire people if he got out of his own way.

Honestly? Grab some beverages of your choice and binge whatever you have left of season 4. There's a lot of stupid in there, but its not nearly as terrible as most claim.

This season is absolutely worth your time, and then some. I too was skeptical and peaced out last year. It is worth catching up on.

I oddly think the end of season 4 gave Ollie more depth too and it kinda commentary on comic book nerd gripes with modern comics.

The show just took a weird dip in the middle of its 3rd and 4th season.

75 percent of Season 3 is great, the last 25 kinda falls flat.

Good news for casting, weirdly Rick Gonzales does a great job of emoting via his eyes in the Wild Dog costume.

Yeah they nailed the landing for sure. I think that might have been my favorite season of the show. It and season two are right there close together.

Season 2 benefits from 2 seasons of build up.

I haven't read the interview myself, but I've seen people on Twitter talking about how Guggenheim said they want to do a BLM episode, and oh man is that probably a terrible idea.

On the other hand, this show is about a traditionally liberal character fighting about controversial issues.
