This week's Arrow gave us more than just the Canary's resurrection a la Lazarus Pit (that is now no more thanks to Nyssa). The hour also brought the beginnings of an Oliver/Diggle reconciliation and an adorable Original Team Arrow moment.

Stephen Amell
Toronto native and "Arrow" star Stephen Amell campaigned hard via social media for Josh Donaldson to start the All-Star Game, ultimately helping Donaldson overcome a sizable deficit in votes to earn the nod. Amell received the chance to meet the Blue Jays third baseman in late June at Rogers Centre, and he even imitated the slugger by belting a homer during batting practice.

Each category had named nominees and then a write-in box where you could submit a different name.  SA was a listed nominee.  EBR was not, but her fans were writing her name in as a nominee.

"She said she missed you and then she texted me one of those emojis with the single tear."

Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) may have discovered Oliver's (Stephen Amell) kryptonite

The PopCrush Fan Choice Awards: Best TV Couple

Ooooolicity. Arrow‘s Oliver Queen and Felicity Smoak kill it on the crime-fighting front, but it took them three seasons to get it together in the love department. Now that they’re all shacked up and making omelettes, do Queen and Smoak still light your fire?

How Superproducer Greg Berlanti Juggles 6 (and Counting) TV Shows Man behind Supergirl and Blindspot is Adweek's Producer of the Year

By Jason Lynch November 29, 2015, 6:39 PM EST
http://www.adweek.com/news/television/how-superproducer-greg-berlanti-juggles-6-and-counting-tv-shows-168290

But Berlanti says Supergirl and midseason's Legends also herald the end—at least for now—of his successful run of superhero series.

"I can very easily justify how each one of those shows is very different and distinct from the other," he says. "Flash has a family drama element, Arrow has a epic saga/crime element, Supergirl has a young-woman-in-the-city and a workplace element, and Legends is like the Dirty Dozen teaming up. But I couldn't honestly tell you there's some other show we would have the energy to participate in at this point that would feel distinct from those."

While there are no new superheroes on the horizon, the indefatigable Berlanti already has six other shows in development for next season...

The Arrow (Stephen Amell, Arrow)
The Emerald Archer's "lesser-known status" in the comic world makes him a hero audiences can really connect with, according to executive producer Marc Guggenheim. "He's one of the few superheroes who is pure human. He has no superpowers. So we wanted to do a show that is more about the hero and less about the super." Not that a few preternatural abilities would hurt. "He is a real person, with real vulnerabilities," adds Amell. "So if I get hit by a bullet in the head, that is curtains for me!"
Link to comment

Too bad that Guggenheim & Co. have pretty much rendered Oliver useless against all of the supernatural/metahuman garbage that they've introduced on the show. Oliver being 100% human in such a world only means that he comes off as less-than-super when he's endlessly getting his ass kicked.

I think if anyone got a bullet in the head, they'd be dead. Including Barry. 

As someone who works in the neuro field, a bullet to the head does not always result in death depending on how the bullet injures the brain. Most of the time it does, and if not it certainly impacts functions and one's ability to return to the life they had prior to the gunshot. But there have been people that have survived bullet shots to the head. I have taken care of some of them. As well as there have been documented and publicized recoveries.

 

I feel like with BA's superhealing and tissue regeneration he probably could survive a bullet shot to the head. But that is neither here nor there, since realistically shooting someone in the head is a very graphic scene to shoot, so unless it happens in a crossover, I don't ever see the FLASH writers going there.

Talk Nerdy With Us Weekly TV Superlative Awards (November 22nd-December 5th)
by  Amna Shabbir December 7, 2015, 6:23 pm

BEST ONE-LINER: ARROW

THEA QUEEN “BUNCH OF SUPERHEROES AND A FARMHOUSE? I FEEL LIKE I’VE SEEN THAT IN A MOVIE SOMEWHERE”

This week was the much awaited Flash/Arrow (Farrow) crossover and as expected, it brought us quite a few adorkable moments (along with some heartbreaking ones *tear*). The line that won the (two) week(s)? Definitely Thea Queen’s remark upon arriving at the Olicity getaway farmhouse. My mind hadn’t had time to make the Age of Ultron parallel just yet when the youngest Queen brought up the point, and it genuinely made me chuckle. We know that a DC TV/movie crossover is impossible now, but maybe Marvel and DC will reach across the rivalry line and do a S.H.I.E.L.D. crossover? I know Skye and Felicity would like it. Sigh, a girl can dream!
*  *  *
BEST BUDDY MOMENT: ARROW

BARRY AND OLIVER’S HEART TO HEART
One of the highlights of the Farrow crossover was its look at Oliver and Barry’s adorable friendship. The two have come such a long way since they first ran into each other at the Queen Consolidated Applied Sciences division. Barry spent a good part of the crossover being there for Oliver in his time of need. One of the sweetest scenes was having Barry and Oliver have a heart to heart about Oliver’s newly discovered baby situation and what it meant to his relationship with Felicity. And of course, how can we forget Barry trying to hug Oliver, and when he retreated from it, reminding Oliver that he is fast enough to hug him without Oliver knowing. Aw!

*  *  *
CUTEST SCENE: THE FLASH

FELICITY GREETS BARRY
The cuteness level of the CW explodes when the resident cuties of its two superhero shows meet up. This week in the Flarrow crossover, we saw Barry travel to Star City to get help from Team Arrow. There, he runs into Felicity who is very happy to see him and hugs him, then punches him. Why? Because he never told her that Dr. Zoom broke his back. Then she hugs him again and tells him she’s very happy he’s okay. Barry responds by asking Oliver “This is what it’s like dating her?” Cuties.

Arrow Spotlight: Felicity Smoak
by  Stacy Miller November 12, 2015, 8:57 am
http://talknerdywithus.com/2015/11/12/arrow-spotlight-felicity-smoak/

The many layers of Arrow’s Felicity Smoak make her a character that has won the heart of Oliver Queen and a legion of fans.

 

Her cyber skills as an advanced computer technology engineer a.k.a computer hacker makes her a valuable member of Team Green Arrow.  Let’s face it, Felicity’s genius at the keyboard has saved her friends from certain death on more than one occasion, proving you don’t have to have powers to be a superhero.

 

Felicity Smoak could have been a one-dimensional character, the brainy computer nerd. As played by Emily Bett Rickards, she’s transcends that cliché. She’s beautiful, smart and funny.  She has been loved by both Ray Palmer and Oliver Queen, two very different types of men.   She has strong opinions and is not afraid to stand her ground even when those opinions differ from Oliver’s.  The great thing about Felicity is that although she and Oliver are great together, she doesn’t need to be with Oliver to be an interesting character.

 

Last season’s episode “The Origins of Felicity Smoak” provided viewers with her back story. Like Oliver and others on the show, she’s made mistakes and has things she needs to atone for.  But her past and present choices have enabled her character growth.  If Felicity wasn’t who she is, Oliver wouldn’t have fallen in love with her and there would be no “Olicity” for fans to care about.  Felicity Smoak is part of the new breed of female superheroes and a woman anyone would be proud to be.

22 Oliver, Arrow
Any time Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) does one of those crazy pull-ups, an angel gets its wings. The sexy superhero has rock-hard abs, a deep love for his sister, and killer skills with a bow, all of which make him one of our biggest crushes day in and day out.

Thea Queen is #37 on MTV's list of 48 top TV characters of 2015...

 

Best TV Characters Of 2015
by mtv news staff 12/9/2015
http://www.mtv.com/news/2616048/best-tv-characters-2015/

Of all the characters on “Arrow” — including Oliver (Stephen Amell), who just figured out what a human smile looks like — Willa Holland’s Thea Queen has organically grown the most. From a drug abusing teen, to arguably the most responsible member of Team Arrow, Thea has spent the past year training with her evil dad, almost dying, coming back with an insatiable bloodlust, losing her boyfriend, putting on his costume to become a superhero… And most shockingly, showing a sense of humor despite everything dire going on in Star City. The show might be called “Arrow,” but we’re tuning in every week for Speedy. — AZ

Isn’t it nice to see some people on “Arrow” finally being happy for once? (Well, up until very extremely recently, I guess). After years of will-they-won’t-they, Olicity is finally a real thing we can all celebrate, and every little moment of it so far has been adorable. Oliver (Stephen Amell) packing Felicity (Emily Bett-Rickards) lunch! Oliver trying to propose via soufflé! Felicity and Oliver having real and complex emotional fights and then working through them as a couple! Mark my words — if it’s her in that flash-forward grave, the Internet will almost certainly riot. — VM

Sunset Cruise: In front of a gathered group of people at a campaign event meant to spread the message of hope, Oliver proposed to Felicity. The moment was lovely but was unfortunately followed up by the couple being shot at, and Felicity being seriously wounded. Merry Christmas!
 

Ship Status: That moment when you’re all happy, breaking out the champagne, shedding a tear, and the next moment you’re screaming “MEDIC!” and calling in ship to shore rescue.

Oliver Queen in "Arrow"
Stephen Amell not only brilliantly plays the part of Green Arrow in the CW show, he also looks the part. Much like Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards), we are also unable to restrain ourselves when we see Oliver training in the Arrow headquarters. Then again, every single man on "Arrow" is beautiful, be it David Ramsey aka Diggle, Brandon Routh aka ATOM, Colton Haynes aka Arsenal, John Barrowman aka Merlyn or Paul Blackthorne aka Captain Lance.

8. Characters on our favorite shows keeping secrets for the sake of "protecting" someone: Look, we know it's a dramatic trope as old as time, but that doesn't validate the laziness behind its continued use. We're tired of watching people on The Flash or Arrow hide things from the people they love, just for the sake of a dramatic reveal/fight down the road. And guess what? It. Never. Works. Can't drama be generated any other way?
