Danny Franks January 24, 2015 Share January 24, 2015 Yeah I think Stephen might have a joint panel with Caity Lotz. She was announced as KCs replacement. Meta. Shame the show itself counter-replaced Caity with Katie. 4 Link to comment
bethy January 24, 2015 Share January 24, 2015 I think there was a fairly recent conversation - somewhere - about the use of arrows during filming of the show, but of course I can't find it now. I think this might be the appropriate place to post this video, though. It's about a guy who can shoot arrows really fast with a technique that is different from what we see in TV and the movies. There's a very brief shot of Oliver during the discussion of archery in film. http://www.dailydot.com/lifestyle/lars-andersen-shows-off-insane-archery-skills/?fb=dd 2 Link to comment

I was on the edge of my seat, waiting to see where they took Sara Lance next. 5 Link to comment

Chaser January 24, 2015 Share January 24, 2015 I wonder if it finally occured to the writers that telling two Black Canary stories at the same time didn't make any sense. Esp when one of them was shipwrecked, went through hell on and off an island, and was trained to become one of the best fighters in the world and the other got a law degree, a few addidictions and a couple months of boxing lessons. Or if Caity just didn't want to come back... 5 Link to comment

I know some people don't have the luxury of turning down work, but I'm glad we won't be seeing any more of her. I liked Sara, but I honestly don't care to know any more about her since she's dead now. It would've been a huge waste of time. I hope she said no, just like Susanna Thompson did. I like Arrow, obviously, but if these dudes can't give you something to do and you're under no obligation? Just say no. Edited January 24, 2015 by apinknightmare 6 Link to comment
dtissagirl January 24, 2015 Share January 24, 2015 Delusional ZOMBIE TOMMY! tinhatting makes me wonder Susanna and Caity are done because their characters are truly really dead, but Colin Donnell keeps coming back because he knows something we don't. 1 Link to comment
statsgirl January 24, 2015 Share January 24, 2015 Hopefully Caity has decided that she's got enough work that she doesn't have to keep coming back to Arrow whenever they get the whim to call her and that's why she's not coming back. They treated her well season 2 and gave her a good showcase, but this season she doesn't need to come back to glorify Laurel. Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish.. 1 Link to comment
catrox14 January 24, 2015 Share January 24, 2015 John Barrowman also said that Malcolm was dead, dead, dead and he would only be back for flashbacks. So really I don't trust any of the lot of them at this point. Maybe KC cancelled because Laurel is going to be killed and Caity comes back alive from the Lazarus Pits and kills Laurel. 3 Link to comment
SonofaBiscuit January 24, 2015 Share January 24, 2015 Maybe KC cancelled because Laurel is going to be killed and Caity comes back alive from the Lazarus Pits and kills Laurel.

It sounds intriguing, although I wish he would pay more attention to Arrow. He's got three shows on now, two pilots and is hoping for an ATOM on too, Indirectly, I think it says a lot about the success of Arrow though. I think no one has more TV shows on the go right now except maybe JJ Abrams. That archery video is amazing. Thanks,bethy. Someone needs to sent that to SA. With his competitiveness, he'd go nuts.

Sakura12 January 24, 2015 Share January 24, 2015 I hope Caity sticks with her decision to not come back. She spent all that time and effort into developing Sara only to be tossed out like garbage. Then she'll only come back to prop up another character. Unless she really needs the money, it doesn't seem worth it. Same with Susanna Thompson. It would be better for them to find work somewhere else. Link to comment
catrox14 January 24, 2015 Share January 24, 2015 I would much rather have Susanna back than Caity if I had to choose. I think Moira had a wealth of potential SL especially with Malcolm resurrected. Sigh RIP Moira Queen. 4 Link to comment
HighHopes January 24, 2015 Share January 24, 2015 Caity Lotz's panel is on right now, and it proves just what the show lost when they decided to kill her off. You can follow the panel through tweets here. Some of the things she has said so far: "A lot of the fighting is actually me! But getting hit in the head with a pipe? That's my double." Laughs @caitylotz "I've done some Krav Maga, some Taekwando. But that wasn't for TV! This is before I was on the show." @caitylotz "I miss being with the cast each day. They are like family - a really big part of my life." - @caitylotz #WizardWorld 5 Link to comment

pigs-in-space January 25, 2015 Share January 25, 2015 I wonder how SA is feeling, if he's happy the show is getting the publicity or wishing he'd never started it in the first place. I don't think he should feel bad - his tweet was harmless, especially considering the fact that he actually knows Erin Andrews and she didn't seem to take offense at it. It was Katie and that Chrissy person (never heard of her before this, whereas at least I had heard of Katie Cassidy before Arrow) who turned it into a big to-do. Katie should have just not responded to any of Chrissy's tweets. I know it can be really hard not to argue back on the internet, but sometimes you just have to stop yourself and consider whether it's really worth the aggravation. Her tweet probably wasn't the best thought-out response, but I doubt she intended it to turn into such a production. I also wouldn't be surprised if all this publicity and some of the negative reaction to the BC plot are why she's cancelling con appearances. 1 Link to comment

Another video: I know it was joked about before, I think it was in his NerdHQ talk that an Arrow musical episode should happen. And he laughed it off, but I think it might fun to do in later seasons... I a little musical action fighting. The villain could be using some superpower that makes everyone sing & dance spontaneously. Or at least as part of a Flash crossover. I mean between Victor Garber, Jesse L Martin & Grant Gustin how can they not be planning a musical episode on the Flash? Doesn't Tom Canavagh even sing? That show is ripe for some song & dance. MG did executive produce Eli Stone which did have more than a few in show musical numbers. 2 Link to comment
Genki January 25, 2015 Share January 25, 2015 (edited) I think The Flash will have a Karaoke night to let some of the cast sing. I think at SDCC EBR said they all would love to do a musical episode, but Stephen doesn't want to because he can't sing. It was a "hang out" interview I think. I don't know if I could handle the cheese factor only shows I liked the musical episodes are Buffy (streetwise made sense/Scrubs - The songs were really funny/Community - its' Community, others (Greys Anatomy I'm looking at you especially) made me cringe Edited January 25, 2015 by Genki 2 Link to comment
lk22 January 25, 2015 Share January 25, 2015 I went to both Caity and Stephen's panels today -- won't deny being relieved when KC cancelled her appearance. CL had nice things to say about her though (not that she would say anything bad), despite a couple of questions that could have taken her in that direction. But she did specifically name her (KC) when talking about missing her cast mates. Even though it felt like the Lance sisters kind of ate the show for late season 2, I did like Sara and it was kind of sad to hear CL say that she didn't think we'll ever see any of Sara's LOA backstory and history with Nyssa. Stephen's panel was quite crowded, even more so than the Agents of Shield panel (which was great and funny, even though I don't watch the show). Lots of anecdotes, but not any new information about the show. A lot of the Q&A was from kids for some reason, so there weren't a lot of probing questions. Nothing about BC, and just a couple comments about Felicity/Olicity but nothing new. Probably the most interesting thing Stephen said was that he has some say and ownership that can supersede the writers if he feels that Oliver is doing/saying something OOC. And he was, of course, charming and funny and handsome. 5 Link to comment

Just the way he handles himself in interviews, like he really cares about Oliver & his journey, as well as the fans. He's invested in the story, I wonder if he eventually get producer credits, like some stars get when they renew their contracts on successful seasoned shows. Its awesome, because I think he makes amazing choices w/ Oliver, Ollie & the arrow. I'm not sure I would have stuck around for the show, if I didn't find his acting portrayal compelling. His acting choices are spot on and he helps bring out the best in those around him. To this day, although EBR has done an amazing job & is completely deserving of the role. I'm not sure she would have been initially hired from additional spots & promoted if SA was not in her camp. It seemed like he was in favor of her from the start. The network, could have easily tried to find another actress or name to fill her shows. But that 1 scene in epi 3 was just that good... 5 Link to comment
