What bugs me is the implication that if you are not patient, you're watching it wrong. Naw, son. You don't get to tell me how I watch TV. I'm an actual pro at doing it.

Oh wow, Emily. I'm impressed because this is really brave and I'm really proud that she said this in such an eloquent way.

Ha. Reading those stage directions, and realizing how EBR went the opposite way [curious and skeptic rather than faint by hot guy] makes me understand 100% how fucking lost they were at that time, and

Everything paleyfest is being discussed in the Mind Your Surroundings threads. Seems appropriate since it's all shows.

ETA - Not dictating that's just where everyone seems to have gone.

After seeing chatter about Stephens meme Monday on Twitter after seeing what people are putting up to be picked .... the phrase "stick to your own lane" keeps playing on repeat in my head.

Barrowman's a ham, so having a panel of his own is probably better for him and for anyone who would have the misfortune to be paired with him.

They could pair him with the crossover group lol. He sounds a bit too much for me.

I always have to wonder why Barrowman has to have a solo panel. 

I don't mind him having a solo panel, but it seems disproportionate compared to the six actors in the Arrow panel. That one seems a bit overcrowded, to be honest.

Barrowman always has his own panel at HVFF events because he draws an audience just by himself. He's more famous for his career outside of the Arrow-verse.

Does this mean even Carly is NOT a fan?? Oooo the drama. It was a funny tweet response, so kudos to Carly on that.

Somebody should just mail the writers room an empty soda box, with a sassy note saying "NO SODA" for them. I put most of the blame on them. Can't believe MG actually made that comment. The guy can't make a joke or not put his foot in his mouth, no wonder the scripts struggle.

Although kudos to the fans for sending the soda, that is sweet, sassy & funny. :)

Last year the finale fell on the 25th May.

I feel last year was worse because we had a break between 18 and 19 also and LL died at the end of the episode. And it got ugly during the 3 week hiatus.

Posting here because of the behind-the-scenes info (no spoilers quoted below)...

[...] A Chat With Madison McLaughlin
Posted on 22 March, 2017 by Jim MacQuarrie 
https://geekdad.com/2017/03/artemis-returns-madison-mclaughlin/

Quote

Jim: I know you had archery lessons before you ever got cast on the show (wink wink); how is TV archery different from real archery, and did your previous experience help? (By the way, your form looks great.)
Madison: Shucks, thanks! Although I think that’s a compliment for my instructors, Jim and Patricia, as much as it is for me. I started archery about four years ago, totally by accident. My family had recently seen Brave and my sisters wanted to try their hands at shooting. I went with them to the classes and didn’t even touch a bow the first week. I finally picked it up the following week and have been in love with it ever since! As we began shooting season five, I started working with archer extraordinaire and all around rockstar, Patricia Gonsalves, and boy oh boy did she whip me into shape. My shooting style on the show is very similar to how I started shooting four years ago, only a lot more polished, refined, and perfected. Our lessons consisted of jumping over couches while pulling an arrow and shooting, so it was an all-around work out. I also learned about the history of archery and different styles, because when you have Patricia Gonsalves teaching you, you soak everything up like a sponge. For the show, we really focused on making my shooting style a bit quicker, more defined, and giving me a “camera-friendly” anchor point… You can’t exactly cover your face on TV, you know. Stephen also helped a lot with how to carry and use a bow in the scene. The bow really becomes a scene partner, and Stephen shed some light on what’s worked best for him over the years, and that was really helpful.
*  *  *
Jim: Got any good backstage stories you can share?
Madison: Oh, man. Let me start by saying that any day Emily and Echo are on set at the same time, you KNOW to bring a change of clothes because you will pee yourself laughing. I have so many videos of them doing everything from impersonations to twerking to elaborate improvised raps. Em and Echo… do not cross me. I will release them.

OH, I do have a fun story. So, towards the beginning of season five, you see the recruits training a lot. Curtis and Evelyn were always paired up, which is visually hilarious, because Echo is 6’5″ and I’m 5’2″, and EVERY time you see us together, Evie kicks Curtis’ ass. Every single time. However, I bruise embarrassingly easily, so when we’d do these stunts, I’d walk off set covered in yellow, blue, purple, and green bruises… I looked like Bob Ross’ used paint palette. Echo always felt horrible, but I swore it always looked worse than it actually was. Until… a warm Vancouver afternoon at the tail end of the summer, Team Arrow was shooting in an abandoned hospital that was believed to be haunted (no, seriously). The air was sticky and my leather jacket kept gluing itself to my neck, using my own sweat as adhesive (glamorous, I know). It had been a long, hot day of shooting in a fog-filled room (this particular scene involved Curtis and Ragman blowing a wall up), and everyone’s masks were dripping off our faces. The scene consists of Team Arrow rescuing Adrian Chase (yikes, right?!) and some others from the clutches of Tobias Church. After wall goes, Wild Dog and Evie start shooting at the bad guys, while Curtis and Ragman get the others to safety. So, we go to shoot this take, right? As we all step out of the hole in the wall, I’m stepping over debris while Echo is gesturing for the victims to come to the exit. The problem is that Echo is a very large man and I am a very small little bean, and accidentally snuck past Echo just as he’s wildly waving at the ACU team… and I got slapped in the face. Hard. We kept going with the scene, and I somehow managed to strike my face with the string of my bow, AND getting my hair stuck in my quiver. By the end of the take, I needed makeup department to fix the mask and makeup (from Echo’s massive man hand and my mean bow), hair department to fix my hair, props department to fix the quiver, and our on-set medic to look at my ankle (that we later found out was sprained). Just another day on Team Arrow.

There was also a much longer break between 15 and 16 last year-- 3 weeks instead of the one week break this year.

I know those are supposed to be T spheres, but for me they look like bouncy balls version of my transit (the T) system's logo.

So while they will do big things on Arrow. It just reminds me of overcrowded trains, urine smells and overpriced transportation that almost never runs on time. But it does get me home cheaper than a taxi or uber, so not all bad things. :)
