It’s no secret that I haven’t really enjoyed the past several episodes of Arrow, and after watching “Broken Arrow” I’m honestly not even sure what to think. It seems to me that the main issue is that Oliver has, for all intents and purposes, become too good – the only one who can beat him, […]

“Public Enemy” focused on two major story lines – Captain Lance naming the Arrow a killer and trying to track him down, and Ray Palmer lying in a hospital bed. (With a few Hong Kong flashbacks thrown in for ‘good’ measure.) In last week’s “Suicidal Tendencies” Maseo – dressed as the Arrow – led an […]

Though Oliver did show up here and there in this episode of Arrow, above all it was about Diggle, Lyla, and Deadshot…and to be honest, it was a nice change of pace from the constant back-and-forth between Oliver and Ra’s al Ghul. (Even if it was a bit predictable that Amanda Waller interrupted Diggle and […]

After the adrenaline rush of the midseason finale in December, the second half of Arrow season 3 has been a bit messy… to say the least. But it seems that a lot of that mess was leading up to this episode’s showdown. The question is, was it worth it? In my opinion, one of the best […]

There was so much going on in this episode of Arrow I that at times it was hard to follow. In the end I feel like the writers have put so many irons in the fire that it’s gone beyond keeping viewers on their toes and entered to the realm of them just throwing plot lines […]

It was almost hard to tell where the recap scenes of Arrow’s midseason finale ended and its midseason premiere began. That said, once it became clear that Roy was on Oliver’s motorcycle and Diggle was in the Green Arrow suit, it all came rushing back. Until they were back at headquarters and glossing over the […]

After watching last night’s midseason finale of Arrow, I had to take a breather and think about what happened for a while before I could review it. First – that beginning! I mean, they immediately jumped into Oliver getting picked up by the League of Assassins and Nissa giving him the ultimatum to find Sara’s […]

I’m going to begin this article by saying that while I usually research new characters who pop up in Arrow, I have not read the source material. It was pointed out to me that this was very obvious; to be honest, I’ve never been a big fan of DC’s comics or characters, but also it’s […]

After last week’s shocking death of Sara Lance a.k.a. Black Canary, it was no surprise that tonight’s episode centered around its effect on the Arrow team as they try to track down her killer. My first takeaway from the characters’ reactions centers around the women’s reaction versus that of the men. Felicity is visibly shaken […]

Despite its title, tonight’s season 3 premiere of Arrow was anything but calm. Though Moira Queen’s death toward the end of season 2 was sadly memorable, Slade Wilson was defeated and it seemed like things in Starling City were back to normal (as normal as they could be, anyway…). “The Calm” quickly put that assumption […]
