I know everyone's more excited about The Flash tonight, but I decided to take a bit of a dive into my thoughts on Arrow ahead of the premiere tomorrow.
I don't go over Olicity or anything like that. It's more about the one thing I still find fascinating about the show, and it's about Oliver's 5-year origin story and where I think they went wrong in seasons 3 and 4. And some broad hopes for 5.

What the hell?? So Arrow isn't on CTV this year? Much Music airs it a day late and some channel called PIX has the new episodes on Wednesdays (but not in HD, at least in my cable package). It doesn't look like anyone is carrying Legends of Tomorrow except for PIX.
EDIT: Looks like CTV 2 is carrying all these shows. Which is of course, not a channel I get. FFFFFFFFFF.

It's a bow, right? lol
? In the text? It's a bow. It's always been there.
Waiting for Flash premiere to hit the CW app, how would you rate the episode?SEASON PREMIERE TONIGHT!!
#5.01 "Legacy"
About a B. It's about what you would expect from an Arrowverse premiere, nothing hugely spoilery you need to watch out for.
Get a better package fast! But yeah, they warned about it a couple of months ago.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
If you live anywhere near the American/Canadian border, you should see what kind of antenna reception you can get. Check out http://www.tvfool.com/
It's pretty possible you may be able to tune a CW affiliate.

I think your interest in the last year "of hell" pretty much tells me that Oliver as a character is actually pretty interesting at the end of the day.
Like despite the missteps the show takes with random unnecessary drama, his character has developed a lot and his flashbacks should have done the same.

Oliver is what keeps me with this show even in it's weakest moments. To me he's the best lead character in liveaction superhero precisesly because of how dynamic he is in his development.

Thinking about the bratva it would be nice if you saw them for a ep or 2 in the current time.
Him being mayor and them wanting to use him would be a fun ep .
I know he left \cut ties with them but it's not suppose to be that easy lol .

I think there is a chance. We have seen Slade, Katana, Maseo, Alpha and Omega, and the magic thing reappear.
Nope. It's a 21 minute sitcom.

Technically it is as the show airing after it tonight, Frequency, is part of the Arrowverse.
I can believe that.
I hope Cisco crosses over to the Lisa Snart spin off.
Sorry. It is Mad Men universe. Jane Sterling's son and granddaughter star.

I inquired, apparently CTV Two just plum ain't available in my area because there's no local CTV affiliate. Welp, guess I know how I'm watching Arrow tonight.

Whewwww.
To be honest I think the show itself is open-ended and could go for 20 seasons if you wanted if the rest was just happy-go-lucky, I've-gotten-over-most-of-my-issues Oliver.
It's just that at times I kinda wished that maybe the show was more explicit about Oliver's actions and motivations. It's so dumb that at times the show is really opaque about what the main character is doing and there's no like Sixth-Sense style twist involved. Like a lot of the time it feels more like he regresses to certain aspects like shirking away help, assigning blame to himself, and pushing away others exists more to create artificial temporary drama amongst everyone rather than really showing he is really a product of his survivorship and it's usually solved by a pep talk or two rather than anything. The flashbacks becoming more milquetoast don't really help his case.
Like if I could do S4 it would maybe be more experimental. Maybe less action-y for a while as maybe Oliver is literally so terrified of Darhk and his magic he has to find other ways to take him down, like run for office, until it reaches a point where he can't stand back and HIVE and the ghosts become too aggressive to not address as the Green Arrow.

Holy shit that was old school Arrow. And the hits had really nice impact. Bambam is quickly becoming a really good director.
