I'm thought they totally forgot about Walter and Malcolm. I'm glad they r going back with these characters.
Laurel will work with Moria's campaign.

Moira Queen for Mayor, that's not going to end well.
Just registered voters perhaps?
I love the fact that this show hasn't been messing around trying to draw too many things out until you don't care anymore, it's like the anti-Smallville.

Jesus this show just is unrelenting in getting shit done. So many big movements on so many plot points.
GREAT episode.
GREAT episode.
What's the correct way? I didn't watch the teaser for next week. I like the keep everything as a surprise.
I used to think it was pronounced with an "ah" sound. Then when I was watching Batman Beyond, he says it that way and then I think Talia says it's supposed to be pronounced "raysh"
then in the Batman movies they say it with the ah sound.

She pronounces it "Raysh."
I thought there is no correct way?
I dunno I prefer the way they said it in Batman Begins.

Man, it cracks me up that Roy doesn't immediately recognize GA as Ollie. I mean Ollie didn't even bother to shave or anything.

Is this show REALLY that good?
I mean I allways kinda thought Hawkeye / Green Arrow was kind of lame.
No superpowers but just a stupid bow and good aiming skills.
its the best live action comic based show on the air by far.

Awesome episode. I loved Sara showing up for Laurel and Roy learning that Ollie is Arrow.
What else could you possibly need? Oh yeah, a salmon ladder scene. Time to lay down on the fainting couch and recover a bit.

It's not the best show ever made, but it strikes a good balance with action, camp, cheese, and mythology. It's a cream dream.

I've never really been a fan of super powers. They're cool an all, but I prefer Green Arrow/Batman, etc.
Relying on hand to hand, being a badass with gadgets and having to outsmart people appeals more to me than just the brute force approach that most heroes with super powers take.
I'd say it's the best comic based anything right now. Better than any of the movies, and I've actually enjoyed the Marvel movies/Man of Steel, despite having to be on a TV show budget. It doesn't waste it's time with filler and just keeps moving forward, while never forgetting about the small things that have happened. like they didn't just forget about the Robert Queen not being the biological father of Thea storyline.
obviously the show has its flaws, like not enough Felicity, but I don't think anything comic related is close to the quality of the show.
Drunk Shady Laurel is the best Laurel with her over the top drunkness.
I can't process the fact Roy couldn't tell Oliver was the Arrow. Oliver has that bump by his lip...Arrow has bump by his lip. Hmmm. They were face to face!
Great episode. I liked the reveal to Roy. It made sense in the situation. Roy gotta control that anger damn.

Did Walter compare Moira to Elliot Spitzer like that was a good thing? LOL
This show is all Batman all the time. Geez, they might as well just give us Talia already.

I've been on this shows side through thick and thin but this ep was kind of embarassing.
The continual use of the words "earthquake machine"? The hilariously contrived reason why Ollie
. It's more like a squad? UGH.

Its the best live action adaptation of a super hero after Batman Begins.

Could someone give a non-comic reader a sentence or two on what the Suicide Squad is?

From the DC Wiki
The Suicide Squad is a team of imprisoned super-villains who perform high-risk missions for the U.S. Government in exchange for commuted sentences. They are formally known as Task Force X. The team's actions are highly classified, and the government is able to deny any involvement by claiming that they are not responsible for the damages of a random super-villain attack. Their commander is Amanda Waller, who runs the organization out of Belle Reve prison.
EDIT: Dammit. Beaten.

The correct Arabic pronounciation is the way it's pronounced in Batman Begins. "Raysh" is technically incorrect.
Maaaan. The Squad, the reveal to Roy, Sara being back, the preview
and the confrontation with Slade.. damn.
I saw some talk up there about
, did I miss something in the episode?
looks insane! Weird that they went with Raysh over Roz in THIS pronunciation since they used Roz earlier didn't they? but interesting
I saw some talk up there about
Slade's children

Kind of curious what Sara means by "come back to her" rather than the league. You have warped my mind, Wozzly!

Oliver mentions his son when he talks him down.
Well now I'm super lost.
Oliver says Roz and Nyssa says Raysh. WHO IS RIGHT
EDIT:
Ah, alright.

Or maybe Roy has... qualities.... that are not easily found on men.

Just caught the latest episode. Thought there was some weird pacing jumping from the club to the island and back to the club. But it's interesting to see
I find myself bothered by Island Oliver. It's as if they try too hard to make him look dumb and out of shape.
Roy is officially on the team, and Sara is back in the city!

I'm sure it's on purpose so that she can correct Ollie saying it during a face to face meeting.
Arrow:
"So you're the daughter of Roz Al Ghul?"
Nyssa: "It's pronounced Raysh,
Nyssa: "It's pronounced Raysh,
I thought they where both correct.

I can see Roy turning into Arsenal if the show ends up going past season 4. Also love that hint at the Terror Squad.

Awesome episode. I love that they don't just sweep past events under the rug, and that all the storylines are interesting on their own, but obviously will weave together in the future. This season has been aces.
On that note, I will still never stop requesting that the writers figure out some what to get rid of that ATROCIOUS chest tattoo that Ollie has. It serves absolutely no purpose anymore, and it looks janky as hell. I don't care if if they need to have a very special episode where Ollie visits the Laser Clinic, or he tests some new Mirakuru body lotion, but just get it off his damn chest. Thanks.

Ah, like Batman Beyond. Probably.
At this point it boils down to whether you side with the pronunciation of the actual name Ra's or the way the creator intended it. Or you can go with your favorite Batman interpretation.

God damn i love this show. Makes me wonder how much better Smallville could have been if it would have just been created along side Arrow.
