I have a feeling they told everyone with a comic book background that they had ~a destiny~ when they hired the S1 regular cast. Even Colin Donnell. They gave him the full 6-year contract, so they sure had big plans for him.

 

I also wonder if the network told them they had to cull the S1 regulars/recurring in exchange to upping EBR, Colton and Manu to regulars in S2 + bringing back Barrowman.

Barrowman wasn't a regular in s2 so maybe they only paid him for the 3 episodes he was in.

 

The only two people I recall being killed off in s1 was Tommy, so that Oliver could become a  hero, Yao Fei, so that the green hood could be passed on, Lucas (possibly because Roger Cross was cast in Defiance), and the villain Fyers.  Am I missing anyone?  I guess you could include Colin Salmon's salary too.

 

They may well have told everyone they will be a superhero, in which case, poor Colin Donnell who would have been told he's going to be the Dark Archer.

 

Re initial screentime: David Ramsey said in an interview that when they hired him for the pilot, they told him that Diggle's role at first will be small but it will get bigger as the show progressed.

I don't have problems with portmanteau ships - I generally like them unless they're something really weird (like Peeniss in Hunger Games fandom, I kid you not). But I've always kind of wished they had gone with something like SmoakQueen or SmoakArrow instead of Olicity.

Olicity has a very cheery sound to it but somehow my first impression was that it lacked dignity.

Leaving aside the weird posing for a moment, why is Jared thingummy wearing a wooly hat with swimming shorts (that look like they're made out of a seventies curtain)? I mean seriously, why?

It protects the hair...I'm pretty sure Padelecki's hair is a sentient entity...much like Joe Flannigan's. If they ever work together the hairs will unite and take over the world. Be afraid, be very afraid.

JP is working the lean muscled look now, but I remember when he bulked up on Supernatural. Guy was huge.

 

What is with the finger pointy thing? Is that to get all your veins to pop out? 

 

This is right up there with duck lips selfies. No thanks.

It's over 100 degrees in Austin today and seeing Jared in that hat is making me want to reach into that photo, snatch it off his head, and slap him around with it, because I think it looks so stupid.

The heat may be making me a little grouchy.

Video of SA's reactions to episode 4x01-05. Obviously "spoilery" --

Someone else recorded it too so there ought to be another angle/version up eventually.
