But what if it's just Moira running against Blood and Blood gets exposed day before the election?

Umm...so much effort, while much easier opportunity has been laying right in front of you the whole time. You forgot that there was a tiny time skip between S1 and S2 where Olie returned to the island for like two months. They can always flashback to that !
j/k

Right now? Yeah. Banshee S2 will soon join this due to complete it into perfect trilogy of action.
We truly live in golden age of action tv.

I love Castle, but I personally wouldn't lump it in with Arrow or Sleepy Hollow. Castle is like comfort food. I watch it because it feels good and I enjoy it, but I don't count down the days in anticipation of wanting to see where it goes.
And if you have not watched The Originals, you should. Just crazy fun, and has the same story momentum like Arrow does.

Person of Interest? Sleepy Hollow? wtf those shows can only be watched sporadically. i could never do the full 24 or whatever the episode count is per season.
banshee, strike back and arrow da gawds of action

Sleepy Hollow is moving crazy fast. Not really an action series, but is just bug nuts crazy which is what makes it great.

i'm 2 episodes behind right now. it is moving quite fast but the only thing that keeps me tuned in now is ichabod. good charisma with abbie and he's always enjoyable.
almost human is more impressive for me at the moment. really liking that one.

Almost Human is just a lot of fun. Waiting for the mythology to kick in, but so far just having a blast with the buddy chemistry and case of the week format.

Same here. Loving it, but waiting for the 'bigger story'. It makes the big difference between: 'Ah nice, another episode' and 'damn, can't wait what happens next week'

Person of Interest just delivered some of the very best three episodes of television this year and at this point it's elevated to a best thing any Nolan has ever done.

Barry Allen and Hal Jordan were killed off because they were boring characters, and replaced by the more interesting Wally West and Kyle Rayner. Hal got a decent personality with his resurrection, Hall did not. Barry got more characterization in his first scene of this episode than in sixty years of comics.
I'm still tripping off this scene. He just shoots Roy and leaves the poor bastard in dark alley in the worst part of town.
You just know some hobo took Roy's wallet as soon as Oliver was out of sight.
I can only imagine the exchange between Roy and the 911 operator, that's a job for you NotTheGuyYouKill
Agreed up until this point lol. POI had an amazing quality increase recently, to the point of Breaking Bad levels.

That is the alley right next to Thea's club btw.
As in,one of the walls is literally the club.
So he probably limped into the club and got help there.
No, S3 will be Ollie training Roy to become Red Arrow after the death of Thea at the hands of Malcolm. Once his training is complete he'll move over to the new Young Justice show.

That would actually be pretty damn fun. But can't we replace Thea with Laurel? Maybe they're both attacked, but Thea only gets hurt?
Speaking of which, I don't recall seeing Laurel for a while now. Hopefully it'll stay that way.
I want evil Thea as Malcoms sidekick, and Roy as Ollies sidekick.
I could see Thea dying and Malcom rezzing her, and trains her well everyone thinks shes dead, and it pushes Ollie to train Roy.
Basically just make every character in on the super hero stuff, except Laurel. Just keep moving her as far away from the actual plot as possible.

Castle gets a bump because Castle is actually my favorite character on tv.
with this last arc it became my favorite tv show of all time.

Someone should do one but replace Roy's face with Laurel's.

Finally caught up. This show keeps delivering like UPS.
The way they keep building a robust mythology without filler, making backstory actually relevant to each episode and how the writers give something meaningful to almost every character is actually amazing.
Pros:
Cons:
One of the best episodes so far.
Like the CW gives two shits about acting :lol
You need to get your eyes, son. But I certainly wouldn't mind her in Arrow. Writers could so easily shoehorn her as Felicity's nemesis.

Pros:
- Ollie nailing Roy in a dark alley. Good to know he's still the craziets motherfucker in this show. The Count is starting to look sensible and germane in comparison.
- Felicity's boob window
- Isabel in that cocktail dress
- Thea in that cocktail dress
- Moira dropping the Ras like no thang. Seriously, this woman is a box full of surprises. How the fuck not only knows him but she's able to give him a call?
- Writers taking a huge steaming shit on the Ollicity shippers.
- Felicity finding new platonic dick.
- Barry is totes adorkable. Excellent work by the actor.
- The genesis of Deathstroke. Hells yes.
- Thea and Roy's zanny adventures.
- Roy's Lumia 1020.
- Ollie getting the snot beaten out of him for a change.
- More ARGUS drops.
- The way they introduced superpowers was really, really well done.
- The music was really, really good.
- No Laurel.
Cons:
- MIRAKURU. Jesus Christ, Arrow.
- Secret Japanese superdrug MIRAKURU is contained in modern syringes, which are stored in a perfecly sanitized box in an otherwise dank and grimmy looking WW2 submarine
- Ollie's wirework during his fight with the superpowered brah was pretty bad. Then again, wirework tends to be crummy even in big budget films :|
One of the best episodes so far.
Totally Thea's pick.
It's too bad Janelle Monae isn't an actor, because her look is PERFECT.
Like the CW gives two shits about acting :lol
Strike Back, bitches. Go watch it NOW. Don't make me punch you in your limp dicks.
You need to get your eyes, son. But I certainly wouldn't mind her in Arrow. Writers could so easily shoehorn her as Felicity's nemesis.
Oh well, maybe Arrow can take in Simon Merells.
You don't need to worry about Arrow at all. It will get renewed for season 3 barring any freak accidents.

Katie will star soon in her own superhero movie

I feel deeply offended that you think that I don't watch Strike Back. Deeply ofended.
I didn't name it solely because the latest season has already aired and it will be almost a year before the new one starts.
I watched the first one and it seemed cool, then I read it was a spinoff of the Vampire Diaries to which I have never seen a single show and I stopped
Does the Originals stand on it's own or do you need to know the whole Vampire Diaries backstory?
Vampire Diaries helps you like a couple of the characters more (Elijah is awesome) but you don't need to have watched VD to watch The Originals. They've pretty much explained everything you need to know.
PhoncipleBone
Banned
Yeah. If you watched Vampire Diaries you have a bit more backstory to the three main family members, but the show works fine on its own and explains things if necessary if you didnt see the other show.
Also, the pilot episode was bad. The backdoor pilot for Originals in the last season of Vampire Diaries was great, but the new one for the stand alone show sucked. Thankfully, the second episode is what kicked things up into high gear and it stayed there.

But what if it's just Moira running against Blood and Blood gets exposed day before the election?
So it'll be like the recent governor's race in Virginia? Man, Starling City can't catch a break.

Great episode, Ollie getting a beating was so good - he really gave me the Batman vs. Bane vibe from TDKR with his I'll take this muscle mass head on approach (hopefully a beating like that will teach him to use his skills better against brute force opponents).
Also Felicity will be the death of me, she has it going all types of on - my only gripe was her cocktail party outfit, no glasses is just WTF! (she looks so much better with them).

You'll be fine watching The Originals on it's own, but you'll be missing out on a lot of backstory. The first few seasons of TVD are actually pretty good, and the seasons involving the originals are excellent. It's really the first CW series where I noticed the breakneck speed of the plot. So I'd say just watch Originals and watch TVD when you can.

She's pretty, but hottest? She doesn't have figure for that. By ridiculous CW standards she's merely average.
I consider it blasphemy that that list does not contain Emily Bett.
Also, I've only just realised that Stephen Amell's brother is Robbie Amell who plays Stephen Jameson on Tomorrow People.
