*sadface* Candice Patton was originally scheduled for that date. I hope that they can reschedule her soon.

All the episodes have been filmed (I believe) so they may just air her episode a different week? 

[Morrigan2575]

Last I looked they aired 2 episodes every Wednesday to make up an hour block. Did that stop?  

[JenMD]

The second episode is usually a repeat.  The listing on my dvr still has Candace's ep listed for the 14th.  If it was just changed, it might not have cycled through yet or the listing above could just have the wrong date.  I think someone mentioned they still have a couple of eps to go in the season.

eta: Per below link, I guess the dvr guide just hasn't updated yet.  Not the first time they moved things around, I'm sure Candace's ep will pop up eventually.

"Emily Bett Rickards" - (9:00-9:30 p.m. ET) (Content Rating TBD) (HDTV) A COMEDY BULLSEYE - WITH GUEST STAR APPEARANCE BY EMILY BETT-RICKARDS ("ARROW") - Hosted by comedian Aisha Tyler, cast members Ryan Stiles, Wayne Brady and Colin Mochrie, along with guest comedian Gary Anthony Williams, put their comedic skills to the test through a series of spontaneous improv games that are prompted only by random ideas supplied by the studio audience.

The four performers must use the little information they have and their wild imaginations to depict different characters and an array of scenes, as well as perform songs. After each round of improvisation, Aisha will dole out points to our four performers and declare a winner at the end of every episode. Directed by Geraldine Dowd (416). Original airdate 9/14/2016.

I wonder if this means that Anna Hopkins has a role of some kind on the new CBS series Ransom, although she's not currently listed among the cast at IMDB...

HOW is she so cute? I don't understand. Haha.

[kismet]

Binged s1 of The Affair with Colin Donnell. Boy does that man look good in leather jacket. He also plays the most charming cads.

It was really good. I liked the slowly developing mystery as well as showing events from the male/female perspective. It was interesting. Not sure I see a lot of longevity in the show, unless they change the entire cast but its an intriguing premise.

Two more photos from EBR's upcoming Whose Line Is It Anyway appearance.

She looks very pretty in these photos. I like the way they did her makeup

[bijoux]

Cute, though I hope she gets a chance to do more. Astronaut or astro-you-should probably made me laugh more than it merits.

[BkWurm1]

Typically the guest gets to come back out later and do a scene.  In KC's case she didn't add much to it. I'm hoping EBR gets to contribute more.

[Chaser]

EBR was great. I think she did (slightly) more then KC. 

[BkWurm1]

She was IMO better during the duet part than most guests.  Really responsive to what they were doing and saying.  I think she may be the first one I can remember not just standing there, laughing and looking embarrassed the majority of the time. 

She looked really comfortable being there.  The human prop section was funny but I  was sad that she didn't get a chance to do much actual improve acting.  Kind of loved at the very end with the credits when Ryan shot her with the arrow and she dropped dead, lol. 

[EmilyBettFan]

She did really good. Not being biased but it shows to me she did better than those that just stand there. She actually engaged and used her entire body.

[bijoux]

So it was the song, the island and archery? Cute and she did well. But I still don't get the appeal of the show itself to be honest.

[tv echo]

Video of full episode - EBR came out on stage 3x (two times for skits and third time at closing credits)...

Drake Bell is probably Top 10 on the list of people I'd never want to hang out with.

I was trying to look up the movie but I can't figure out the name of it. I've looked up Cover Version and StarFoxy and We are Star Foxy and I got nothing.

He was on Drake and Josh on Nickelodeon which, in all fairness, was a pretty good show. It ended ~10 years ago, but he's still riding the coattails of fame from it, or at least attempting to when he's not being a douchebag on twitter.

Didn't he have to go to prison recently for a DUI?

Yup, just a couple weeks ago but prison was overcrowded so he was only there for a part of his four day sentence.

ABC Buys Twisted Soap ‘The Marquis’ Produced By Greg Berlanti & Julie Plec

ABC has put in development The Marquis, an hourlong drama project executive produced by Greg Berlanti (The Flash, Supergirl), Julie Plec (The Vampire Diaries) and Sarah Schechter. Warner Bros. TV is the studio.
*  *  *
Written and executive produced by Quantico executive producer/writer Jake Coburn, The Marquis is described as a sexy and twisted character soap set in the most iconic and exclusive building in Manhattan.

[kismet]

Not sure if people mentioned it back in previous pages... but I just saw a preview for the new Anna Kendrick/Ben Affleck movie "The Accountant" and Cynthia Addai-Robinson is in it acting opposite of JK Simmons. Good for her. :)

I hope the movie does well... I will miss her on Arrow, she lit up every scene she was in.

[Kobold]

The Marquis sounds right up MG's alley. So Greg should send MG and WM over there and get someone new to straighten out the mess that is Arrow. Yeah, too late, I know.

With her background on Desperate Houswives I could see why Wendy might be a good fit, but don't get the Guggenheim fit.  He's always been clearly in the superhero world.

Because Berlanti didnt use Arrow to launch his favorite pet, the Flash? Berlanti is just the overall guy,  he already has Schechter attached to the project.  I just find it funny people think Arrow would be any different than it is. Unless of course you are talking of making Bamford the shaky hands in charge of Arrow.

Because MG and WM are responsible for turning Arrow from a superhero show into Felicity and Friends a soap opera. /sarcasm

he's had producing and writing involvement with non-superhero shows. Maybe he thinks his forte is superhero stuff, afterall there is his No Ordinary Family success and his Green Lantern success. And now the high quality S3 and S4 Arrow we got with him as showrunner. Guy should never be a showrunner that's for sure. But hey, GB gave him Arrow, so it's his and Wendy's to mess up as they please *shrug*

Nope don't see where I said anything about Bamford. I'm not one of those who's preoccupied with Bamford. Just MG mostly.

I mean Arrow was in MGs hands when AK and Berlanti started developing the Flash in the middle of s2? But i guess you would be more satisfied if Beth Schwarz and Speed Weed replaced Wendy and Marc?

Sister-swapping, two best friends in love with the same woman, accidentally sleeping with your father's former mistress, pining over your dead brother's wife, finding out your nemesis is the father of your sister, seeking revenge because the woman you were in love with loved your protégé and got killed because of him, and knocking up a girl and being told she miscarried because your mother paid her off-- happened in which seasons now?

As long as the people making money off the show are calling the shots, we'd probably wind up with pretty much the same show regardless of who was running it. Maybe better-executed useless drama, but useless drama just the same.

The events you mention happened in S1 and S2. And boy did it just keep getting worse when MG took over in S3, and continued right on into the ditch in S4 when they no longer even cared about making good villain stories that made sense or good fight choreography. Not to mention the flashback problems. At least they know they need to get back to focusing on Oliver's mission for the city and to fix the fights. But yeah, I'd rather they just bring in a totally new showrunner since MG on his own couldn't even balance the soap elements with the crime/fighting/villains.

My point was that seasons 1-2 had way more soap elements than 3-4, which mainly consisted of people coming back from the dead, the typical will-they-won't-they between the main couple, and the baby mama storyline. And what do MG and WM, who are writers and producers, have to do with the quality of stunts and fight coordination? 

[Midnight Lullaby]

I don't think the soap drama got worse, just that after a few years you are less willing to put up with it. If I think of some stuff that happened in season 1 I'm impressed with myself I managed to watch it all. Well I played candy crush during most scenes of that terribly boring love triangle but still..LOL

[Bort]

People, you've gone off the rails, topic-wise. This is for the Arrow cast in other roles. Not Flash, not discussing the intricacies of last season, etc. 

[dtissagirl]

There are at least 2 pretty powerful dudes* and 4 billionaire conglomerates telling Berlanti to keep up the serialized soapy melodrama on Arrow, because everywhere else on TV right now it's serialized soapy melodrama time.

* Look at them, aren't they having a ball:

[bijoux]

I just aught Summer Glau in a Grey's Anatomy rerun while channel surfing. It was only a year or two before her Arrow run, but she looks so much more fresh faced. I guess medical personnel manages to get more sleep than scheming villains.
