This data, compiled by Stacker on Sept. 15, 2020, includes 50 episodes from 35 different television shows.

lemotomato October 10, 2020 Share October 10, 2020 The results of the poll, and the intro text. I'll miss his passive aggressive and transparently biased write ups. ("Thriving fanbase" that netted 19% of the vote in one category, lol) Quote This year, we had fewer categories, and also removed some of the more negative ones, both out of respect for the show and the talent, but also because the last thing 2020 needs is more negativity. You can find past results here. Votes were limited to 1 per IP and “won” fair and square — if something got the top spot, that means enough fans were motivated to vote. Maybe we will do this all over again if Green Arrow and the Canaries gets another chance, or we can do a full-series poll like we once did for Smallville. 1 2 Link to comment

("Thriving fanbase" that netted 19% of the vote in one category, lol) Kat McNamara won with 79% of the vote, that's more than SA got for best male actor. In a year that EBR wasn't eligible under the rules it should have been a blow out for KC if she really had that huge a fan base, especially because whilst Kat has her own large one they're less likely to vote in Arrow polls than Shadowhunters. Laurel also came in at 30% in "favourite character". She obviously has some passionate online fans but but either they don't vote in fan polls (on a famous site that is well known for disliking Felicity) or she just doesn't have the numbers. I did think her directing was good and would put her above Bam but not above Antonio Negret. 2 Link to comment

Oops. I wonder how many people voted this year given Arrow being off the air and everything that's going on? Huge amount of enthusiasm going on in the likes and retweets. /sarcasm. Although none of these are in the slightest bit surprising I *am* a little surprised Laurel doesn't do better at least in the percentages for some crazy reason. Link to comment

I'm sure it's a total coincidence that this will air on the CW right before the season premieres of the Arrowverse shows. The option to allow online submissions makes me skeptical of the legitimacy of these awards. Since it's airing on the CW, I'm going to guess The Flash is going to sweep the Superhero Series/actor/actress category. Edited October 13, 2020 by lemotomato Link to comment

Despite spelling her name like she's a 15 year old on AIM, Felicity Smoak is kind of a cool character. It's too bad that she falls into all the tropey pitfalls of fictional hacking. It's almost as if television writers don't think viewers will understand that a character is a hacker unless they're gothed out and speaking gobbledegook. The real reason we think she's the worst is because she's against erasing all of the world's student loans. NOTE: There are a total of 21 characters on the above list.

Queen Consolidated's computer whiz just so happens to be one of Green Arrow's most treasured allies.

Felicity is a tech genius and can hack into anything in a matter of seconds by slamming on a keyboard and spewing hacker gibberish. But she's so bubbly and adorable that you can't help but love her. She is one of the very few sources of light and levity on Arrow, which probably makes us love her that much more. Plus, any woman who gets Oliver Queen's attention has got something working for her. * * *19 ... Iris West The Flash NOTE: There are a total of 27 characters on the above list.

That said, one actor is so good at being bad that he appears on our ranking twice, for two very different roles! https://tvline.com/gallery/best-tv-villains-ranked-photos/promises-kept-4/ Quote 17. Slade Wilson/Deathstroke, Arrow Take Slade Wilson — a badass with a legitimate beef — and jack him up on Mirakuru, and you get the most formidable, and personal, of foes for Oliver Queen. The way that one-eyed Slade slid back into Oliver’s life still gives us chills, while his brutal kills (not Moira!) made us double over, as Oliver did, in anguish.

tv echo November 4, 2020 Share November 4, 2020 (edited) Arrowverse: 10 Best Kisses, Ranked Kath Leroy November 3, 2020https://screenrant.com/arrowverse-best-kisses-ranked/ Quote 7/10 The What-If Kiss ... Barry and Felicity are one of the couples that never truly happened - but would have been perfect together. Felicity liked Barry from the first moment she met him, and he also returned her affection since they had a lot in common. He even went to dance with her at a party even though he stated he couldn't dance. And in the first season of The Flash, Barry ran to accompany Felicity on her way back home. They kissed, but even though it was a sweet moment showing what could have been, they were both already in love with someone else by this point. * * *5/10 The Reunion Kiss 2.0 ... Speaking of reunion kisses, there's also the one between Sara Lance and Oliver Queen. These two had a brief relationship in the past but it ended in tragedy when the ship they were on, Queen's Gambit, sank. However, when Sara returned back to Starling City, they quickly rekindled their romance - and it all started with this kiss that was intense, full of passion. And even though Sara and Oliver later broke up, there's no denying they were a good couple - both fighters, with tragic past experience and a strong desire to right their wrongs. They remained close friends even after their break-up, and when Oliver died, Sara took it really hard. * * *1/10 The First Kiss ... Oliver and Felicity weren't originally meant to be a couple since Felicity was supposed to be a much less important character. But the creators brought them together and many fans loved them. Their romance wasn't perfect, they broke up multiple times, but in the end, they reunited in the afterlife. As for the best kiss between them, one of the most notable ones is their first kiss. It happened in the first episode of the third season of Arrow when Oliver kissed Felicity to prove that he did have feelings for her. 10/10 The Alternate Kiss [Barry & Earth-2 Iris] 9/10 The Alternate Kiss 2.0 [Earth-X Leo & Earth-X Ray] 8/10 The Reunion Kiss [Caitlin & Ronnie/Stein] 7/10 The What-If Kiss [Felicity & Barry] 6/10 The Distracting Kiss [Thea & Roy] 5/10 The Reunion Kiss 2.0 [Oliver & Sara] 4/10 The Goodbye Kiss [Sara & Snart] 3/10 The Fake Kiss [Barry & Caitlin] 2/10 The Kryptonite Kiss [Kara & Mon-El] 1/10 The First Kiss [Oliver & Felicity] Edited November 4, 2020 by tv echo Link to comment

But when a show serves up something you’ve been waiting for for a very long time, and does so with style and love? Yeah, that’s a good fan feeling. And since 2020 has been short on good things overall, we thought we’d gather our favorite fan-service-y moments in one place. The assemblage includes returns of favorite faces (we still haven’t recovered from Grey’s Anatomy‘s McDreamy’s surprise), nostalgic callbacks with wry twists (aka 95 percent of Saved By the Bell‘s continuation series) and super satisfying scenes from series finales (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.‘s flash-forward, anyone?). And before you put on your “Well, actually…” hat, know this: We stretched the definition of fan service when it suited us, because celebrating when your favorite show does something you’ve wanted your favorite show to do is #selfcare. * * *ARROW'S NEW GREEN DEAL Has John Diggle been enlisted to the Green Lantern Corps? DC bigwigs kept the Arrowverse series from coming out and saying as much, with one of its series finale’s closing vignettes. But we are holding out for Dig’s eventual, and deserved, glow-up.

tv echo December 19, 2020 Share December 19, 2020 (edited) From EW... The most memorable shipper moments of 2020 By EW Staff December 17, 2020 https://ew.com/tv/most-memorable-shipper-moments-2020/ Quote Believe it or not, 2020 had its fair share of romance. There were first kisses, happy endings, and everything in between. Here are the TV shipper moments we cherished most. Olicity's reunion, Arrow There was no guarantee that Emily Bett Rickards would return as Felicity Smoak in Arrow’s final season after departing the show in season 7. Thank Beebo she did. After Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) sacrificed his life to restart the multiverse in the “Crisis on Infinite Earths” crossover, he went to rest in a paradise dimension and Felicity eventually joined him there, thus giving the couple the happy ending they fought oh so hard for. —Chancellor Agard Edited December 19, 2020 by tv echo 2 Link to comment
tv echo December 19, 2020 Share December 19, 2020 (edited) From Fangirlish... Our Top 10 TV Moments of 2020 CBEATAE DECEMBER 18, 2020https://fangirlish.com/2020/12/18/our-top-10-tv-moments-of-2020/ Quote The worst year ever is almost over, and we are so happy to be saying goodbye at last! It wasn’t all bad, though: we did get to watch some amazing TV. Here were our favourite TV moments of 2020. * * *Oliver and Felicity reunite in the afterlife – Arrow We’ve had a complicated relationship with Arrow throughout its 8 season run, and to say we were disappointed in the finale would be an understatement. Still, this is the show that kicked off the Arrowverse, and we have lots of fond memories attached to it. Seeing Oliver Queen die and the show come to an end was heartbreaking, but it was nice to see him finally happy with the love of his life. Our Favorite Ship Moments Of 2020 RAQUEL DECEMBER 17, 2020https://fangirlish.com/2020/12/17/our-favorite-ship-moments-of-2020/ Quote The year is so close to ending! It seems unreal that this 2020 only has a few days left, as unreal as the year has been. That means it is time to review everything that 2020 has given us (apart from a pandemic). It is the time to review our favorite ship moments of 2020. * * *Olicity ~ ‘Arrow’ Yes, Arrow ended this 2020, it seems like eons ago, but not a year has passed. We would not have ended the show in this way, we’re much more traditional when it comes to show endings (and we still don’t understand that, having a choice, they chose this, but things are as they are) but there is no doubt that the moment in where Oliver and Felicity meet in the afterlife and just live happily ever after is one of our favorites of this 2020. No one but them deserves all the happiness in the world, after all the shit they went through, fighting Crisis included. Their ending may not be what we would have chosen, but at the end of the day, they are together forever. Edited December 19, 2020 by tv echo 2 Link to comment

(For others, like The Flash's Barry and Iris, it was just too bittersweet and rough — she's trapped in the Mirrorverse — to make this list.) * * * Arrow's Oliver and Felicity After Arrow fans had to watch hero Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) die in the crossover (across two months and technically in two different years) more than once, he more than deserved his happily ever after. As tragic as it is that he didn’t get to raise his kids, we did see him reunite with his wife when Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) stepped out of the Monitor’s portal into what’s best described as an afterlife of sorts (though we didn’t see her die and Oliver became something else). 10 TV Villains Who Left a Lasting Impression in 2020 Meredith Jacobs December 22, 2020https://www.tvinsider.com/gallery/best-tv-villains-2020-the-boys-supernatural-arrowverse/ Quote Arrowverse's Anti-Monitor It had to be a major villain that would bring the Arrowverse shows — Supergirl, Batwoman, The Flash, Arrow and DC’s Legends of Tomorrow — together in a five-part crossover spanning two months (beginning in December 2019 and ending in January 2020). Not only did the superheroes that were left when the final two parts aired earlier this year have to put the universe back together after the multiverse was wiped out, but doing so claimed the life of the hero that started The CW’s super franchise: Arrow‘s Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell).

The show ended with Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) getting a happy reunion with Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) in the afterlife, which was a welcome respite after the hooded hero spent so much of his vigilante tenure tortured and convinced that he had to live a solitary life to keep those he loved safe. The end of Arrow meant the true end of an era for The CW, and it's strange to think of its universe continuing on without the original show. The solace is that the Arrowverse has been left in very capable, heroic hands.

Rather, the grades chosen reflect how each TV show did (or did not) stick the landing based on their respective runs. Also, as stated above, we did not grade every single series finale from the past year, but instead chose a select few series that ended on their own terms. * * *Arrow ...B+ ... The Oliver-less team’s final mission — to rescue a kidnapped teenage William — was a bit perfunctory, and the new Season 1 flashbacks it teed up were conspicuously missing Felicity (due to former cast member Emily Bett Rickards’ limited availability). But Oliver’s funeral, well-attended as it was by favorite and even some “resurrected” characters, ended the series on a properly reverent note, the hint of Diggle’s “green” destiny was pleasingly teasy and the closing scene that reunited Olicity in some sort of “afterlife” promised the ultimate (if kinda lonely?)

I know I am extremely late in my viewing of the CW’s entire line of superhero shows. That’s my bad. But I’m here now and I … can’t decide what my ships are for this one. Mostly because every time I think I have one something happens to make me turn the other way. For. Example. In season 1 I thought Oliver, Laurel, and Tommy would be a cute OT3. I liked that Oliver didn’t have an issue with them being together (and was surprised because I seriously thought the series was gonna do the “how could you be with my girlfriend even if y’all thought I was dead” trope) and overtime he ended up having chemistry with BOTH of them. It would’ve been Team Childhood Friends and I was ready for it. Except. Tommy breaks up with Laurel because she’s still in love with Oliver, Oliver tells Tommy to go after her because he obviously still loves her (and Oliver isn’t going to pursue her), then Oliver… sleeps with Laurel… and Tommy sees them making out from outside since they’re doing it in front of her open window. I call this “CW-ing,” which is when the network adds unnecessary drama. It happens A LOT in this series. Like, for a hot minute I thought Oliver and Diggle would make a fine ship, or Oliver and Felicity, or the three of them (because I stan OT3s) but Oliver hooked up with Sara, you know Laurel’s sister? The one Oliver cheated on Laurel with before he was thought to be dead? The one Laurel found out was sleeping with her boyfriend because they BOTH were on the boat that sank and BOTH reported as dead? Just… um… Team Felicity and Diggle (though Felicity and Ray are cute too). I’m only on the 3rd season, though, so I’m expecting this to change at some point.

Featherhat December 31, 2020 Share December 31, 2020 Thinking about some other finales and the ups and downs of Arrow it ended well compared to how they could have gone out, even if it wasn't the happy raising of the kids (maybe with occasional missions) that I would have chosen myself. As for changing ships, I never really did for Arrow. Disliked Lauriver from the get go wasn't a big fan of dead brother's wife. Merlance have great chemistry but rewatching really showed Laurel was using him as a place holder and was never really that into it. Was into Olicity from the start but didn't think it would turn romantic, I thought we'd get the Clark/Chloe route until late in 2A and even then wasn't sure it would stick. Interesting that person ships Delicity romantically. I never saw that personally. They have great chemistry but even in their early one-on- one's it never came off as romantic. Now I want to find an Earth where that happened just for the Woah. Carly was a good character except being Dig's sister in law so he could show Oliver how sibling swapping is done honourably and Dyla was awesome from the start. I could read an OTA OT3 crack though but I've never seen one. I'm actually surprised there wasn't more of Oliver/Dig and especially Oliver/Tommy (two white guy woobies style) but I never got that vibe from either of them. Link to comment

In fact, there were times where we loved nothing about the show, but we always loved Olicity. And that’s why we both raged and rejoiced at the ending they got. Yes, they were together, but we’re not really fans of afterlife reunions.

As if we weren’t emotional enough this year, we faced the ending of some of our favorite shows. Some were planned, such as Arrow, Supernatural, Schitt’s Creek, The 100, Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., etc. And others were due to cancelations, such as One Day at a Time, Party of Five, Stumptown, etc. Even if some of these shows had time to write a proper ending to bring their stories to a close, none of us were ready. 10 Shows That Ended In 2020 That We’ll Definitely Miss SHELBYC DECEMBER 15, 2020https://fangirlish.com/2020/12/15/10-shows-that-ended-in-2020-that-well-definitely-miss/ Quote Arrow Arrow may have been uneven for most of its run, but you can’t deny the empire it created. From Arrow we have gotten The Flash, Supergirl, Legends of Tomorrow, Stargirl, Batwoman, and Black Lightning. The introduction of Oliver Queen in this interation set in motion the so many other superhero shows, but even the original show must end.

Yay, an 8 year journey ends on a death! Just what we wanted – NOT. Can TV shows just stop doing that? Plus, why did Oliver have to die again? Oh yes, to set up a spin-off we didn’t even get! Wonderful. Stephen Amell might have always thought this was the perfect ending for Oliver Queen, but let us be the ones to tell you he knows even less than Jon Snow. This is not what the fans were around for – not even after they did whatever it is they did to “reunite” him with Felicity. That’s not a happy ending, that’s placing a Band-Aid on a broken bone and hoping like hell no one notices. Edited January 3, 2021 by tv echo 1 Link to comment

For a show that started off doing everything it could to call its hero anything but Green Arrow, Arrow became one of the most important pieces of the growth of DC's heroes over the 2010s. Premiering on the CW Network in 2012, Arrow— which was clearly influenced by Nolan's Batman films— started as a stand-alone series about Oliver Queen as he battled evil in his hometown of Starling City. This "realistic" approach to a superhero quickly gave way to the Arrowverse, a series of seven TV series and counting. While Arrow came to an end in 2020, the legacy it created will continue to live on for years to come. 10/10 Batman Signaled The End Of The Standalone DC Movie Era With The Dark Knight Rises 9/10 The Flash (Barry Allen)'S Actions In Flashpoint Set The Stage For The New 52 8/10 Flash (Wally West) Brought Hope Back To The DC Universe & Ushered In The DC Rebirth Era 7/10 Daredevil Showed A Grittier Side To The MCU 6/10 Green Arrow Kicked Off The Expansive & Ever-Growing Arrowverse 5/10 Spider-Man Returned To Cinematic Glory And Finally Forced Sony Pictures & Marvel Studios To Work Together 4/10 Wonder Woman Was A Trailblazer For Female-Led Comic Book Movies 3/10 Deadpool Ushered In A New Era Of R-Rated Comic Adaptations 2/10 Aquaman Reinvents Himself For A New Generation & Finally Brings The DCEU Over The Billion-Dollar Mark 1/10 Iron Man Kicked Off The MCU And Made Comic Book Characters More Mainstream (& Profitable) Than Ever Before Edited January 7, 2021 by tv echo Link to comment

tv echo February 19, 2021 Share February 19, 2021 (edited) The Best Superhero Shows to Watch on Netflix, Amazon, HBO Max and More Lindsay MacDonald Feb. 18, 2021https://www.tvguide.com/news/best-superhero-shows-netflix-hulu-amazon-hbo-max/ Quote Arrow Where to Watch: Netflix ... The Green Arrow might not have been a household name like Superman or Batman, but thanks to The CW's recent take on the character, Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) managed to launch an entire DC multiverse, thank you very much. Arrow tells the story of entitled billionaire playboy, Oliver Queen, and his return home after spending five years on a deserted island. Though he maintains the party-boy persona by day, by night, he hunts down criminals in his city armed with a bow and arrow and a whole lot of martial arts.

tv echo February 19, 2021 Share February 19, 2021 (edited) Best female superheroes of all time ranked - our 15 favourites By Mirror 2 days agohttps://www.standardmedia.co.ke/entertainment/features/2001403685/best-female-superheroes-of-all-time-ranked-our-15-favourites Quote Before we even begin, we know there's no way to please everyone when ranking the finest females in DC and Marvel history. Second, superheroes are defined as any hero within the DC and Marvel universe (plus a sneaky hero or two from elsewhere) rather than someone with super powers. Of course, this list of 15 is not an exhaustive list, but it's made with love and sheer admiration. If you don't see your favourite on the list, let us know in the comments below (play nice). * * *14. Felicity Smoak Wait a second before you yell at us. Felicity Smoak isn't a traditional entry into a female superhero list, she dons no mask, has no powers to speak of, but that doesn't mean she hasn't earned her way on to the list through loyalty, heart and off the chart intelligence. Originally the stepmother to Ronnie Raymond The CW gave her a make-over after Emily Bett Rickards impressed them performing alongside Stephen Amell. It's this version that now appears in the comics. There's no one with Smoak's brains, the Green Arrow would have been nothing without her behind the computer and in his ear on The CW series, and the later comics. She's proved divisive, but there's no denying fleshing out her character on the small screen has created yet another strong female hero, and this time one we can aspire to be, after all nailing code is a little more likely than mastering the cosmic power of the universe for the average woman. 15.
