Mellowyellow April 13, 2020 Share April 13, 2020 A lot of people I know are going bonkers (except my bestie and husband who are identical in temperament and taking this all calmly like they do every other freaking thing in life) so it's not too weird that someone like SA is starting to lose it.

Though I’ve been watching his daily IGTV videos with Drew and he’s mostly seemed good, except for the one where he had on a really interesting guest (his friend who is in charge of the Covid response in Washington) and SA admitted he had 4 glasses of wine before their chat and kept interrupting with slurred questions. He hasn’t seemed like he’s super stressed; just not self-aware enough to not drink before shooting a live video. And I know a lot of people hate his wife, but she looked like she was trying to save him from himself a few times during tonight’s charity live. She clearly didn’t want him to tell the story of them having sex while he was in his Arrow suit when shooting the pilot. There’s also been a marked shift in making his daughter much more visible in his videos which is interesting, especially since a few days ago he mentioned that his wife tried to keep her a bit sheltered from that until she got older and could decide for herself how much to share. 1 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2872-social-media-and-behind-the-scenes-aka-everything-else-not-news-and-media/page/784/#findComment-6061622

Featherhat April 13, 2020 Share April 13, 2020 I haven't really been following SA's Instagram live stuff only if someone else reports he said something particularly interesting or had an interesting guest. Because I was kind of expecting bored drinking (he certainly wouldn't be the only one) and some remarks he might wish he hadn't made. Stuff like having sex in the Arrow suit is information I really didn't need from him, especially because every time I read a fic of Olicity doing the same thing I'm going to think of it. Interesting that he's showing their daughter more because they previously had been fairly careful to not show her face when she got older. Hmm. 2 hours ago, Primal Slayer said: Didnt they make it a point that Sara was more like Dinah, Laurel like Quentin?

I guess they dialled back on it a bit in later seasons when AK wasn't available and we have no idea what she knows about Sara's current Waverider life and she's never been mentioned on LOT. But Laurel was still portrayed as Quentin's rock even then. It was just a stupid, glib answer because they wanted to have Sara say Oliver was the last connection she had to her old life and didn't remember or didn't care that Sara should have a mother alive in Central City.

I've only watched snippets of a few of his IG lives and in every one of them he mentioned either having Bailey's in his coffee or drinking hair of the dog (after their "responsible gathering," where he said he and Cassandra really tied one on the night before). As a licensed internet doctor, my completely professional opinion is that perhaps he's struggling with a bit of an alcohol problem that's spiraling because he no longer has a set schedule he needs to be functional for. Quote There’s also been a marked shift in making his daughter much more visible in his videos which is interesting, especially since a few days ago he mentioned that his wife tried to keep her a bit sheltered from that until she got older and could decide for herself how much to share. These two seem to have a really weird passive-aggressive dynamic to their relationship. Like back when I first started watching Arrow and followed them both, he'd tweet about his gluten-free diet, then she'd tweet about how stupid and ineffective gluten-free diets are. He'd do an ice bucket challenge video, she'd tweet about how stupid the ice bucket challenge was. She'd publicly post about being excited for Coachella, he'd keep posting about how dumb it was (until he decided it wasn't that dumb after all - although I cannot be sad about this change in attitude because it led to his wife tweeting at Whoopi Goldberg that she doesn't have to take showers because they have a saltwater pool). Tonight he tweeted about her telling him that if he kept dancing a certain way, maybe he'd get his abs back. Him telling a story she didn't want told about Arrow suit nasty, him showing their daughter when she doesn't want it, etc seems pretty on brand for that relationship. As a licensed internet therapist, my completely professional opinion is that shit's weird over there but I guess it works for them? I come away from all of this just hoping that all of the wardrobe people wore PPE back in the day. 3 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2872-social-media-and-behind-the-scenes-aka-everything-else-not-news-and-media/page/784/#findComment-6061883

It's great that there's less pollution from cars and everything else but there's still a big down side to this even for the environment let alone the human cost. And it often comes across as smug and tone deaf. With SA he was supposed to be filming a new series right now and had been getting back into shape for it. Whilst I'm sure it does take time for the mind and body to recover from 7.5 years of Arrow he can't keep using that as an excuse forever. Or if he feels he needs to he should seek help. /internet doctor.

calliope1975 April 14, 2020 Share April 14, 2020 I was watching the 3rd episode of Some Good News that John Krasinski is doing, and he's such an example of a celeb that gets it along with those mentioned above. He saw how depressing the news was and wanted to put some good out in the world. And using his connections he managed to get an OBC reunion of Hamilton, lifetime seats for healthcare workers for the Boston Red Sox, and AT&T to pay for every healthcare workers cell phone bill for 3 months. In addition to that, he made me not want to crawl under my bed and weep for 1000 years. That's using your status and clout for the greater good. Not that every celeb has to do some big production. I love that Kat did a story time to raise money. SA has done so many successful charity drives so he can do it. And it's not that he needs to do anything. That's completely reasonable. But obviously having people over and breaking quarantine while also being sloppy drunk is not the best look for him. 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2872-social-media-and-behind-the-scenes-aka-everything-else-not-news-and-media/page/784/#findComment-6064800
Trisha April 14, 2020 Share April 14, 2020 I don’t know why I keep watching SA’s daily videos (morbid curiosity, I guess) but today he had Cody Rhodes on, who ended up being pretty entertaining and a great storyteller. But they talked about shooting the prison scenes in S7 and SA did not come off like a nice guy to be around on set. Quote CR: There was this really great moment where Stephen’s bow screwed up on him while I was nailed to the floor...The bow string popped back in his face and Stephen got really hot on set and it got really quiet. And the quiet, I describe it as it felt like it was about 10 mins of very, very quiet and he was up on this rig and I was just stuck. I couldn’t move. I was in a runners position. And then you just literally, I could barely hear you, you just go “ok” and then we started back up. But it was terrifying; I thought heads were gonna roll. SA: But so here’s what happened. I’m like up on the roof and I go to yank out the arrow [from my quiver] and I kept hitting the roof that was clearly covered in asbestos and I got really mad. I’m like “What the f*ck am I doing up here in this spot where I can’t literally reach back and grab an arrow?” I think what happened was I got upset and then I was like “Alright so you know what? We’re going to keep going here; I’m not going to be able to grab the arrow the way that I want to. I’m disappointed in the construct of this scene.” [laughs] CR: It was unreal. He yelled at like one person and then everybody got quiet. No one did anything for 10 minutes. And I just was stuck there. And I thought maybe I’ll like crack a joke but then not even. I’ll just let this play out. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2872-social-media-and-behind-the-scenes-aka-everything-else-not-news-and-media/page/784/#findComment-6064834

ELLE Apr 14, 2020 Quote Do you ever wish you had access to your favorite celeb's phone? Consider it our command. ELLE is kicking off our newest series, #OnThePhone, with Arrow star and Shadowhunters alum #KatMcNamara. ... Watch as we check in on Kat's #StayHome fixes, get invited into her wildest group chat, and find out why she's staying away from TikTok. -- KM said that she sets three alarms to make sure that she gets up on time. KM: "I called my mom first, uh, because she's at home with family. And my mom is also an infectious disease scientist, so I get the updates daily from her as to what's going on the world, 'cause it's good to stay informed." -- KM: "Oh, by the way, shout-out to Shadowhunters and Arrow fandoms because your memes are amazing... But this particular one was sent to me by my girl Maya, who's a writer on Arrow. And it made me laugh so hard. So I didn't even realize I did this at first, but Mia never sits in a chair. And I don't know why I started that. I think it's because I had this badass office with a desk and a bunch of papers piled around everywhere, and I just ended up sitting on my desk most of the time and not in the chair. And from that point, I started trying to purposefully not sit in chairs, 'cause it sort of became a Mia thing. And this tweet - it's a tweet that says, 'Mia said I respect that chair sitting life but it ain't for me.' And it's a little video (Shows her phone screen) - I don't know if you guys can see - of all the times when Mia never sits in a chair. Very silly. And the tweet is from fraysmile. So thank you for the video, for the tweet, and thank you, Maya, for notifying me of it, 'cause it made me giggle." KM also gave a shout-out to Lord Mesa.

tv echo April 17, 2020 Share April 17, 2020 (edited) A fan described briefly running into EBR at C2E2... C2E2 2020: when i met Emily Bett Rickards/Felicity Smoak Skattered Shadows April 15, 2020 -- Phil TMNT: "Guys, like I said, I usually try to stay with the group, at least for a few minutes, for a few moments, when I first get at C2E2, and then I usually break away, do my own thing. ... And, I want to say, like, what, the first 15-ess minutes, I nearly bump into this red-headed lady. And I, as a gentleman, I said, I apologize. I said, 'oh, sorry, my bad.' And she said, 'no, no, no' - something like, 'that's okay.' Something like that, I don't remember the exact wording she used. And so I said 'hi' to try to save the situation - to - as it kinda felt like an awkward confrontation with this lady. So, as I said 'sorry,' I said 'hi,' and she said 'hi.' And that was pretty much our conversation. Then we walked away and did our own things. And then it hit me, like seven seconds later - seven, five seconds later, it hit me. Like, no... that was Felicity Smoak! Like, I know she's not, like, the actual actress, it's not blonde hair. And they even tease that in the show, that she dyes her hair. She - I think she's a brunette, uh, naturally. She just dyed her hair blonde. For C2E2, she dyed her hair red. So I was so excited, like, I just met an Arrow actor. 'Cause I knew she was gonna be there along with Stephen Amell, who played Oliver Queen. I just met an Arrow actor! Unofficially. Without realizing it. And I just realized it! So I call my brother and say, 'Bro, guess what, I met Felicity Smoak from Arrow!' (Deepens voice) 'Did you take a picture with her?' (Normal voice) 'No, I just realized it.' ... 'Oh, I don't believe you.' 'Screw you. I'm excited. Love you. Don't take this away from me.' ... That was one of the times in my life where I nerded out the most, but... one of the times where I'm - I was the most mad at myself. Still am. Because I was - I could have potentially tried to, like, flatly ask her: 'Hey, big fan of yours. I - I love Arrow. Felicity is one of my favorite act - characters. Can I please take a picture with you?' Which, genuinely, Felicity is one of my favorite characters from Arrow. She wasn't exactly my favorite character in Season 4 and only in Season 4. In Season 5, she kind of, uh, grew on me again. And the only reason she wasn't my favorite character in Season 4 is because, [unintelligible word(s)] in Season 3, Oliver and Felicity decided to go to, like, their own paradise home. And they get pulled back into Starling City because Ra's al Ghul and the League of Assassins.... But Oliver found out that Felicity was secretly working with Team Arrow and she didn't tell him. Okay, that's fine. But then [unintelligible word] she got mad for Oliver keeping secrets, for Oliver keeping the fact that he had a son after agreeing to keep him having a son a secret just so he could see him. That is my issue with Felicity in Season 4. Or was that the Damian Darhk season? I think it was the Damian Darhk season when she had that issue. Yeah... Are you kidding me? Are you seriously going to get mad at Oliver for keeping secrets when you kept a secret and then you're going to dump Oliver too.... When you kept a secret from him for working with Team Arrow. You yourself also know that, by dating him, with prior knowledge that he has gone through hell for five years. And ever since he came back, he's had to deal with his past and you've been in that journey for like three years so far. And you're getting mad for keeping secrets. That was my issue with Felicity in Season 4. I'm being legit. That was, like, the only time when I actually had an issue with Felicity Smoak. But, like, the first three seasons, I liked her. The beginning part of Season 4, she was okay. Like, later on, I guess, as Season 4 progressed, I did not really - I - I did not like her character. Beginning of Season 5, the Prometheus season, I certainly didn't like her because I was mad after what she did to Oliver, plus she dated someone else and tried to keep that a secret from Oliver because she was trying to find the right words, like, the hypocrisy. But later on in that season, she did apologize for being a douchebag for breaking up with him because he kept a secret from her, which was - that was the moment that character regained my respect. That tension out of the way, Felicity Smoak as a character, she is seriously one of my favorite characters of Arrow. And the entire eight seasons of Arrow, I only had one issue with that character and I just said it. It would've been great to see more of Felicity in Season 8, outside of the very last episode, but... it was still great to see her in Season 8... But, yeah, Felicity is one of my favorite characters. Emily, uh, Bett - I'm having a brain fart on the actress's name, but I know her last - same as like 'records' and her first name is Emily. And her middle - I think she goes by Emily Betsy Records, something like that? I'll have her actual name in the title, so don't worry... But yeah, meeting her was like great... I missed my chance to ask, 'hey, can I get a selfie with you?' Like, I missed my chance of potentially getting a free selfie with her, 'cause getting a picture with her costs, like, I think, 80 bucks? And then an autograph costs a bit more? I don't know. But yeah, I was able to meet her... I was just randomly walking. I literally nearly, like, pretty much bumped into her. I apologized, was able to say 'hi' to her, was mad at myself for not recognizing it was her, still mad at myself for not recognizing it was her, and I'm just nerding out that I was able to meet an Arrow actor at C2E2 ... Like, I'm still losing my mind. I'm beating myself up. Like, why didn't I say 'hi' to her? Like - like, well, I did say 'hi' to her, but, like, why didn't I recognize her until, like, it was too late? ... By the time I recognized her, I didn't know where she went. I didn't know which direction. ... But I didn't want to come off as a creep. I didn't want to say, 'oh my God, where is she?' And make a big scene and potentially have, like, this mob of people coming around here, 'cause... I just felt that would've been impolite thing to do and that would've came off creepy if I did that. So I said, 'okay, hopefully I'll be able to bump into her again.' No. That was the only time I was able to meet, like, get any interaction with her, was when I like pretty much bumped into her. And the only thing I literally said to her, outside of 'I'm sorry' - being a gentleman saying, 'sorry, I nearly bumped into you' - is 'hi.' Literally. I'm so mad at myself. Like, I was lucky enough to meet an Arrow actor... What threw me off is, I'm so used to seeing her with blonde hair, 'cause I'm so used to seeing her in Arrow. With the exception of, like, I think, four episodes, and three of those were, uh, flashbacks, while one of them were in that 'Crisis of Earth-X' crossover where, uh, the Nazi were - like, the what if scenario the Nazis won the two worlds wars - well, the side that won the world war, uh, the last one, I believe, uh, World War 2. So yeah, I'm so used to seeing her with blonde hair, not any other color. So - and the thing is, I said, that woman sounds familiar. And I think she kinda looks familiar. Seven seconds later, that's Felicity Smoak. What the hell, Phil? What the hell? And I'm mad at myself for not recognizing her. Because, like I said, if I recognized her immediately, I will - in the most polite way as I can... in the least creepy way as I could, while nerding out inside - ask her if I could take a picture with her... Like, take a selfie with me and her. So that's my story of how I met Felicity Smoak."

From what I've seen, it's usually young male fans that compare Oliver hiding a child from his fiancee with Felicity's white lie about helping the team. I'm assuming because they have no concept of being in a serious relationship and the responsibility of raising a child. 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2872-social-media-and-behind-the-scenes-aka-everything-else-not-news-and-media/page/784/#findComment-6071260
