For stunts, yes, Arrow is a realistic Emmy nominee. It's gotten a significant amount of buzz for that category in previous years and Time Warner has been pushing it in that category for a bit, and it'

You've probably spent as much time arguing against Arrow on here as some of the "internet clickers" have spent voting on polls. They're spending their time in fandom in a positive way, and devoting th

On this last day of 2017, I would like to nominate @tv echo for our MVP of the Arrow forum. :) (No slight intended to all of the lovely posters here that I appreciate constantly, and who keep me comin

I voted for 411 as well. There were others I enjoyed this season as well, but this is the one that stuck with me. It wasn't just the two Felicitys, it was a well constructed and unusually well paced episode of this show.

So Arrow won the Leo Award for best stunts in a drama series this year, making it only the second time the show has won anything for stunts. (Their first was a Leo for the pilot.) 

One of the two was very much earned

That's a really good list. Love that two triangles made it on. It's kinda ironic for me because Im totally Team Ben and yet I'm totally Team Jake. Maybe in my mind he was always destined for Olivia, I just didn't know it at the time. Funny how Scott Foley can't seem to ever win on his shows, but audiences just love him and can't let him go. :)

I should have stopped looking at that list the minute I saw Aria and Ezra. Um...no. Olivia Pope and both of her toxic relationships? Chuck and Blair? At least they have Tami and Eric, I guess.

I swear I think they just found shows with couples of any kind and put them on the list. I mean I don't watch Scandal but just from what I gather those are pretty terrible relationships that I would NEVER classify as "Great".

Now if they labeled them as "unforgettable"...maybe.  But "great" to me, connotates worthy and worthwhile. And sorry but Buffy and Angel was a TERRIBLE relationship.  If Twilight were a TV show I'm sure they would have include Bella and the stalking vampire

I voted for Monument Point. But what's weird is it said "Thank you. We have ALREADY counted your vote". But I didn't vote until today...

That kind of thing happens to me over at other sites when I accidently double click so I wouldn't read much into it.

I didn't accidentally double click though. I selected my choice and clicked vote. That's it. No double clicking.

What a weird poll. LOL what? KC for most underrated actress? No. Heughan is in Best actors but also under most underrated actors? Olicity is up for the worst storyline but also the most tragic breakup and supercouple?

Lol it says a lot that olicity got worst storyline but nothing about Laurel dying... That sounds about right. Even in death people still care more about olicity to nominate it than laurel.

I think Heughan being in both makes sense because he really is a good actor. S1 he was phenomenal, but never got any nominations from the bigger awards, while his co-stars did. So I think there is some currents in social media and general media that he is underrated, which in some way I do think has some credence.

The other parts of the poll, well those I have no opinion on.

I guess to me it seems like being int he underrated undercuts his chance at Best Actor in that poll.

Huh olicity for worst storyline had 5199 votes when I checked at almost 9am (west coast time) and it's now 9:53am with 6125 votes and going up every time I refresh by 5-10 votes lmao

One negative poll about Olicity in 4 years, from a no-name site that has no safeguards against bot voting, unlike Eonline or the MTV Ship of the Year. I'm sure the writers and EPs are ripping up their long term plans and scripts as we speak.

I think that's the total number of voters. IT's peculiar that that specific category has a couple thousand more votes than the others.

LOL "A blackmailing romance with a guy who has PTSD" must be the funniest thing I've read today.

LOL, if I was a Laurel fan I would have spent time nominating her death as worst storyline. Or at least as most painful death. I guess this is another example to add to our argument about no one really caring about her death.

It's not about Laurel. None of this response is. This is about what Laurel's death signifies to some. Them killing Laurel means that they don't give a damn about comic canon. It says we listen to 'fangirls' and not 'fanboys,' Laurel (and KC) is reaping the benefit of some epic temper tantrums right now.

I thought so as well a while ago but I changed my mind. Arrow has never followed comic canon so saying S1-2 followed the comics and now it's all ruined is plain wrong. 

I think "because comics" is considered a good argument to use to justify hating on a show. It could have been something else, but it happened to be this one.

There's another way to interpret that O/F relationship as Worst Storyline - if you're only looking at the past season, then the O/F relationship storyline was their break-up over the BMD.

Had to go Canary Cry.... it perhaps wasn't the worst episode. There were a couple that were not great for various reasons. But Canary Cry retroactively ruined fundamental things I thought Arrow was based upon. The throwing of Tommy under the bus, the canonization of LL, and the fact that it sets the precedence for public reveal - it was a bomb of an episode that had longer ramifications of ruin than just a poorly shot or dud of a plotline episode.

Tough choice between 408, Taken, and Canary Cry, but voted for Canary Cry, because it was 42 minutes of everyone suddenly loving a character that they didn't give a shit about for 4 seasons (3 seasons for Oliver).

I read on Twitter they submitted Canary Cry for consideration in writing Emmy category. I know it's basically just to put something there, but that's the episode you go with?
