Sarcasm really doesn't translate well online.

Well, 34-year-old SA is starting to "age" out of The CW show demo... maybe they're going to introduce a new generation that the GA will mentor next season - like a Teen Arrow redux. ;) ETA: Edited to add the winky face.

From HVFF-NY in January (David Rapaport is also going to be at HVFF-Chicago this weekend) - I couldn't understand the audio for the entire Q&A but did get these two nuggets... -- Robbie Amell auditioned for Arrow but he came across as "a little bit too young and not quite right for it." But he remembered him and later cast him as Ronnie/Firestorm. -- In response to fan saying that TV couples normally do chemistry tests and asking if he did a chemistry test with SA and KC, he replied: "I'm trying to remember - I don't know that we did, actually... (Fan interrupted: "You don't recall?") ... I don't recall that we did, no. I think they were cast separately so I'm pretty sure, yeah. Yeah, thank you."

Walker Nation podcast interview with David Rapaport, casting director for Arrow, Flash, LoT and Supergirl (60.44 min.)... EP 11 DAVID RAPAPORT – CASTING DIRECTOR BY DAVE SOLO MARCH 10, 2016 // 12:36 PM http://fanfest.com/ep-11-david-rapaport-casting-director/ -- He talks about the casting process and his job as a casting director. -- He talks about casting SA starting at around the 24:30 mark. He says that it's very rare for someone like a SA to walk in and be instantly cast. SA was the first person on the list that he brought in to the producers. Having cast other shows and knowing the story, he just knew that SA was it. However, "that pretty much never happens." They got lucky with SA. -- He's a fan of the comics, but he doesn't know them that well. The show producers knows the comics. He tries to match "the essence of the character with the person." He doesn't try to cast someone who looks exactly like how the character looks in the comics. -- He talks about his comic con experiences. -- Other stuff...

I'm not sure of the reliability of this IMDB info, so I'm not putting it in the Spoilers thread... IMDB lists Kevin Tancharoen as the director of 421: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1160495/ IMDB also says that 418 will air on Apr. 13, that 419 will air on Apr. 20, that 420 will air on Apr. 27, that 421 will air on May 4, that 422 will air on May 11, and that 423 will air on May 25: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4862552/?ref_=tt_ep_pr http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4862550/?ref_=tt_ep_pr http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4862548/?ref_=tt_ep_pr http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4862556/?ref_=nm_flmg_dr_2 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4862558/?ref_=tt_ep_pr http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4862554/?ref_=tt_ep_nx If the IMDB info is accurate, this would mean a one-week break after 417 and a one-week break after 422.

Some spoilery tidbits about LoT, Flash, AoS and Gotham... Matt's Inside Line: Scoop on Blindspot, NCIS, Once, S.H.I.E.L.D., Bates, Murder, Walking Dead, Americans and More By Matt Webb Mitovich / March 10 2016, 10:00 AM PST http://tvline.com/2016/03/10/walking-dead-season-6-daryl-carol-spoilers/

PRELIMINARY SUMMARY OF 418 SPOILERS S4, Episode 18: Eleven-Fifty-Nine -- Production code: 418. Shoot Dates: Feb. 12-23, 2016. Director: Rob Hardy. Writers: Marc Guggenheim & Keto Shimizu. Airdate: Apr. 6, 2016? (MG tweet, page 31 of Spoilers thread) -- 418 synopsis: TBA. -- Per MG, 418 began shooting on Feb. 12. (MG tweet, page 31 of Spoilers thread) -- MG's Billy Joel song pick for 418 is "Famous Last Words." (MG tumblr post, page 31 of Spoilers thread) -- On Feb. 12, PB posted pic of Quentin wearing a flashback wig. (PB tweet, page 316 of Social Media thread) -- On Feb. 17-18, Arrow was filming at Vancouver Community College on East Broadway (with "Queen for Mayor 2016" pic). (YVRShoots tweet, page 31 of Spoilers thread, and Oliver Queen Films Notification Letter, page 878 of Spoiler Discussion thread) -- Scenes being shot at Vancouver Community College have to do with the mayoral campaign. (YVRShoots tweet , page 31 of Spoilers thread) -- On Feb. 17, SA, WH and KC were filming something for mayoral campaign; and PB and KC filmed a coffee shop scene. (Juvelyz in VC tweets, page 880 of Spoiler Discussion thread) -- Taiana will appear in 418 because ER was on the Arrow set on Feb. 23. (ER tweet page 32 of Spoilers thread) -- Unclear whether Donna will appear in 418. On Feb. 18, CR tweeted: "Nooooo @EmilyBett -I want to Nemo w/ you!! ???? We'll have Nemo pajama party next week!" (CR tweet, page 881 of Spoiler Discussion thread)

I don't have anything regarding Felicity being in 418. However, if Donna is in an episode, then Felicity is almost certainly in the same episode. On Thursday, Feb. 18, CR tweeted: "Nooooo @EmilyBett -I want to Nemo w/ you!! ???? We'll have Nemo pajama party next week!" (CR tweet, page 881 of Spoiler Discussion thread) The following week was Feb. 21-27. Since 418 shoot dates were Feb. 12-23 and 419 shoot dates were Feb. 24 - Mar. 4, CR could've been returning to shoot 418 or 419 (or both). On Monday, Feb. 29, CR tweeted: "Back in town... #arrow @ Vancouver, British Columbia." (CR tweet, page 33 of Spoilers thread) So CR was definitely filming for 419. (And we already know that Felicity is in 419.)

Not outright spoilers, but spoiler-ish... The Walking Dead - The Same Boat - Advance Preview Posted by Romain Ossust at Thursday, March 10, 2016 http://www.spoilertv.com/2016/03/the-walking-dead-same-boat-advance.html

I love the new promo poster for Felicity. However, I have to admit that I prefer her hair longer and straighter. Her current hairstyle is too close to the corporate look she had last season - which, I guess, is appropriate for her now being CEO of Palmer Tech. But it just doesn't look as natural on her as a straighter look.
