    Thanks @Morrigan2575! 

    What numbers do they look at before cancelling? 

    Or do they cancel shows that have gone on for too long and have falling ratings? I didn't pay attention to what Vampire Diaries was getting before they announced it's last season. 

    According to this chart, TVD was still pulling 0,5's and 0,6's in A18-49 before the CW moved the show to Fridays. After that, ratings dropped all the way down to 0,3's.

    A Reddit user going by the name of RogueArrowverse just leaked the following set pictures:

    I saw a pic of her and SM on Twitter, and she looked different there, too. She's a chameleon. 

    I'm having a total blank moment right now. Who's SM?

    After the Ed Westwick thing and the Allison Mack thing and the Kevin Spacey thing and the Mad Men thing I just knew something gross was going to come out about someone from Arrow.

    Me either. I wouldn't be surprised if we eventually hear something about the producers/showrunners of Lost. They always talked so much crap about women in interviews and loved fridging them on their show.

    So is everyone still getting a villain this season?  If new guy is Vigilante (and possibly her ex) does that means she gets two bad guys?  I thought BS was her villain.   She barely rates one (which is why BS is a good match).  Or is she dating Vigilante, doesn't know it, and someone else on the team is fighting him?

    Vigilante isn't a villain. People just think of him as such because he was also fighting Team Arrow, but he's actually more of an antihero in the vein of the Punisher. Also, if I remember correctly, his mask was part of the Legion of Doom's trophy case in the Doomworld episode - right next to Arrow's, Spartan's, Black Canary's and the The Flash's.

    I’ll be shocked if he’s not Vigilante now. But he may or may not be Dinah’s “dead” ex or just a new LI. 

    If he is the dead ex, they introduced him before introducing Dinah, which is weird with all the “you’ll recognize him” and connection to a member of the team talk. 

    See, this is what happens when you drag out a reveal, give what I’m sure the EPs thought were great quotes about Vigilante’s identity and then also talk about casting the role. It’s probably not going to live up to any of the hype they think it will. 

    The most ridiculous thing is, the EPs are going to pretend that they had it all thought out and always intended for Vigilante to be Dinah's "dead" boyfriend when we all know that's total hogwash. If they had always intended to do that "twist", they wouldn't have let that character be portrayed by a bit player actor when he originally appeared in Dinah's flashback. The original casting gives it away that Vinnie wasn't meant to be more than a minor throwaway character and the EPs made it all up as they went along, which I wouldn't even mind that much if they were at least honest about it.

    That guy kinda looks like Dinah's "deceased" partner/lover, Vince Sobel (played by Clayton Chitty). If that's him, then I don't understand WM's talk about being in the casting process (assuming he's Vigilante) - unless Chitty wasn't available so they cast someone else who looked like him.

    Casting process could mean recasting to account for an expanded role - kind of similar to what happened with Sara Lance. Clayton Chitty's biggest acting credit to date was as Kevin Federline in the widely-panned Britney Spears Lifetime biopic. He is not a good actor, unfortunately.

    I figured her love interest would probably be a side character, which makes a Vincent = Vigilante reveal all the more likely. It's too bad that the pics are so blurry. I would love to know who the actor is.
