You see where this is going, right? SUPERMAN SHITS DIAMONDS. Seriously, every loaf that comes out of that man’s ass should be a 14-karat diamond necklace that he can give to Lois Lane, Lana Lang, Wonder Woman, or whatever alliteratively named girl he’s dating in his current continuity. They should probably wash them first, though. If Barry is the "new" Superman, he really needed to get on that. Maybe he can rearrange molicules with his speed and transmute his sneezes into gold.

She really does nail it just about every time. I feel her pain about the upcoming election and I only live near the border of s swing state. It's cool that Oliver was mayor in the comics because they don't have to address it in every episode. TV is a spoiler different medium. Do we really want to see 20 hrs or so of city hall/policy heavy plot & conversations? These writers are not Sorkin. I don't quite see them nailing the talk & walks.

SmallScreenDiva August 25, 2015 Share August 25, 2015 (edited) He actually is, most times, pro-Felicity and OG3. That's really not my problem with him. He gets so many facts just plain wrong and it frustrates me and it takes away any credibility he has as a writer (for me, anyway). I wonder if he doesn't have any editor or what. Looks like he's a contributor, so I don't know how his articles are processed. But you guys convinced me take a peek :P 10) I agree flashbacks need to matter. I enjoyed Tatsu and Maseo but the FBs felt aimless and the last-minute tie-in to the present felt forced. 9) I want more than "a few moments" of Original Team Arrow action. I want them back in the forefront. I want Oliver as the leader of TA with Diggle and Felicity as his partners. I want OG3 missions and on-field action. I want all 3 relationships highlighted. 8) Proper arcs for the rest of the team — I'm happy Felicity and Diggle seem to be getting the proper attention based on EP interviews. I also want proper story lines for the rest of the team, and by rest, I mean Quentin and Thea. That's it. 7) No, no, no to more crossovers. One big one is enough for me. OK, maybe a couple of small ones if the timing and the story arcs actually mesh. Don't delay stuff on "Arrow" just so it'll work on "Flash." (Looking at you, "All Star Team-Up"). 6) Nyssa vs. Malcolm — I honestly can live without this. I like both characters but I'm not particularly invested in them. I don't need their storylines. 5) Introduce more metahumans — Only on a very limited basis. Once a season, maybe. 4) A focused plot — Agree. Better execution. Better pacing. Add tension. One of my problems with S3 is that there really wasn't any sense of urgency or threat until the last few eps pretty much. Fewer gotcha moments that lead nowhere (still scratching my head over the wedding). 3) Better Big Bad — Agree. Ra's was bland. Give the main villain a clear purpose, a clear goal and better characterization. Give me a believable motive and I'll believe the villain. 2) Felicity has to be more than a love interest — Yes, and I think we'll see that in Season 4. I'm not a fan of calls for Felicity's return to Season 2 form because Felicity has grown a lot as a person this season. She was tested by all the bad things that happened and I believe came out stronger. She will be funny again, she will be quippy again because, I hope, she'd be less burdened. 1) The proper Green Arrow — not having read the comics (other than the most recent ones with Felicity and Digg) I have no idea how different the comic book GA is. But Oliver is supposed to be lighter this year, so step closer to his comic book persona. But again, we have to bear in mind, that as Stephen himself said comic book GA is not necessarily HIS GA.

The character debuted as an antagonist who sued the hero, later unwittingly marrying his alter ego Ronnie Raymond's father. "First day on the set of #Arrow today? Dont mind if I do," tweeted Rickards. The actress will debut in the third Arrow episode alongside Michael Rowe as Deadshot. Firestorm is not considered a fit for the show, and so is not expected to join his stepmother. Star Stephen Amell has said that Arrow is set in a world without superpowers. Executive producer Andrew Kreisberg has promised that the show will stick closely to hero Oliver Queen's liberal roots. 'Arrow': How the comic book drama became the TV hit of 2013By Morgan Jeffery Tuesday, Apr 16 2013, 11:29am EDThttp://www.digitalspy.com/tv/s206/arrow/tubetalk/a473657/arrow-how-the-comic-book-drama-became-the-tv-hit-of-2013.html#~pmp5p9sManmCxY When I finally saw the Arrow pilot though, I was disappointed, calling the finished product "melodramatic" and arguing that it "lack[ed] substance". In short, I was not kind.* * *But the melodrama I previously referred to was its biggest flaw. Early Arrow was frustratingly po-faced, which left the show's more comic book elements (costumed vigilantes, mysterious islands) feeling out of place. And while you couldn't fault Stephen Amell's performance, Oliver Queen was a rather charmless lead - posing as a spoilt douchebag by day and a brutal murderer by night.* * *An infusion of humor - a gentle insertion of tongue into cheek - was what Arrow badly needed and, as the show evolved, that's exactly what it got. The show didn't suddenly transform into a comedy - the drama remained high-stakes and those stakes remained very real - but the creative team wisely expanded the role of computer whiz Felicity Smoak (Emily Bett Rickards). Here was a character whose charm and wit cut a swathe through the tough guy posturing of Ollie and his hard-headed partner Diggle (David Ramsay). Promoting Rickards to series regular status for season two must've been a no-brainer....

To be honest, I am personally glad the writers have realized they struck gold with the chemistry we’ve seen brewing since last season between Emily Bett Rickards as Felicity Smoak and Stephen Amell as Oliver Queen. Of course there probably are a few hard core comic book fans screaming foul at the writers of Arrow for not sticking with Laurel and Ollie as endgame.* * *Arrow does have a creative license to tweak certain things, and they certainly did by keeping Moira alive (she died in the comics) and adding Oliver’s sister (who is really his half-sister, but my point still stands). So is it really so bad that the writers - like many of us fans - have noticed the lack of chemistry between Stephen and Katie and are now going in a different direction?* * *Oliver shooting three arrows at The Count seemed a bit much if he only considered Felicity as a friend. Even if he was still going to kill him for trying to hurt his friend, just one arrow would have sufficed. But to me, Oliver was clouded with rage, mixed with panic at the thought of losing Felicity; so he didn’t think… he just reacted. That action speaks louder than words ever could. Not to forget the previous Olicity scene we got in Arrow Season 2 Episode 6. Oliver probably thinks that if he gives into his attraction towards Felicity, it could become something more...

However, I liked it not just for Felicity (although her first scene was gold), but I liked the villain, it had cool stunts (love Oliver parkouring up that wall to dig out the bullet, PLUS smart Oliver figuring out the curare and the origin and trajectory of the shot to find the bullet...Oh smart Oliver, where were you in S3?) and several great Oliver/Digg moments (my fave is: Diggle: "I guess from now on I'll be watching you pee;" Oliver: [pause...pause...pause...walks away]...cracks me up). There were even a couple good Oliver/Lance moments, and a little humility from Oliver (thanking Lance for showing up to protect the auction). Overall probably one of the best episodes of the show.

Let the viewer be your guide. The CW's marketing and social team doesn't push their own hashtags on viewers, instead letting audiences decide which ones will dominate the social media conversation."That feels the most organic and doesn't feel forced," said Haskins, whose team monitors all social media conversation around a particular episode, honing in on hashtags that are generating momentum and incorporating those into that week's or the following week's episode. "What I don't want to do is put what I think is the perfect hashtag and give it to the viewer because they're the ones that are using them more than we are."Usually, the most popular fan-generated hashtags revolve around two characters that have been "shipped" into a romantic relationship. "They come up with names of the perfect relationship and those we use all the time," said Haskins.For example, Arrow's Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) and Felicity Smoak (Emily Bett Rickards) begat #Olicity. "So that what we'll do is we throw it back to them: You made this up, what do you guys think about it? But the relationship ones tend to be the most fun, and the ones that gain the biggest ground because people can add onto it or change it or disagree with it," said Haskins.Relationship-themed hashtags are among the most popular hashtags at CBS, for couples like #Lenny (The Big Bang Theory's Leonard, played by Johnny Galecki, and Penny, played by Kaley Cuoco). For its freshman drama Scorpion last season, CBS asked fans to decide whether Happy Quinn (Jadyn Wong) and Toby Curtis (Eddie Kaye Thomas) should be called #Quintis or #Tappy (they chose #Quintis).

This plus low attendace for their panel and comic con makes me happy and hopeful The CW will spread some money around.

Velocity23 August 27, 2015 Share August 27, 2015 Olicity and Westallen get a shoutout in this article by IGN Arrow listing 12 Greatest Superhero Romances on TV http://www.ign.com/articles/2015/08/27/the-best-superhero-romances-on-tv Oliver Queen & Felicity Smoak (Arrow) Stephen Amell's Oliver Queen is easily the most handsome superhero on TV, what with the rugged good looks, the scars and the fact that he spends his free time shirtless and working out on the salmon ladder. Unsurprisingly, Ollie has had a busy romantic life on the show, whether it's with the Huntress, Shado or either one of the Lance sisters. But ultimately, it's not a leather-clad vigilante that holds sway over Ollie's heart, but the ditzy secretary, computer genius Felicity. The show has mined a lot of drama out of the fact that these two pine for each other yet can't seem to make their relationship work. The Season 3 finale suggested that domestic bliss may finally be in the cards for these two, but with Ollie donning the hood again in Season 4, somehow we doubt it's going to be that simple. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/8621-the-starling-city-times-news-and-media-about-arrow/page/73/#findComment-1453796

BkWurm1 August 27, 2015 Share August 27, 2015 I was more upset at the Secretary part. Now if you want to say Oliver was a ditzy CEO, that would fit. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/8621-the-starling-city-times-news-and-media-about-arrow/page/73/#findComment-1453942

dtissagirl August 27, 2015 Share August 27, 2015 (edited) I'm picking up fanboy bitterness from just the article itself. "Ditzy secretary"? Really? That's actually high compliment to a lady character in IGN-fanboy speak. 1. Ditzy: she has a flaw, thus not being a Mary Sue 2. Secretary: she's a woman and she has a job! Incredible feature I mean. Maybe he meant *quirky* *executive assistant*/*VP*, but now you're just expecting too much of a fanboy brain.

NoWayOut August 27, 2015 Share August 27, 2015 Despite some of the word choices, Oliver and Felicity were mentioned alongside some of the greats even though the author could've left them off completely.

apinknightmare August 27, 2015 Share August 27, 2015 Silly, scatterbrained, and still manages to do a hell of a lot to save her city and the hero. They can have their misogynistic backhanded compliments - I'll take Felicity as she is. 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/8621-the-starling-city-times-news-and-media-about-arrow/page/73/#findComment-1453996
