So I've liked Ray on Arrow this season but this weeks episodes put him way up on my list of favourite characters and got me looking forward to the spin off, which I assume was the main point of focusing on him on both shows.
EDIT: So now having finished the episode I have to add did we really need yet another fridge stuffing?

Possible Spoiler:
Sara returns as the White Canary in the new spinoff?
I'm all good with this idea. More Sara makes me happy.
I saw that the producers only gave Colton a 2 year contract for Arsenal so he has 1 more episode this season and then he's done with the show. That's some BS! I really enjoy his character and they need to extend his contract or move him to another in universe show.

Kreisberg actually said that he's likely to come back in the future, just not as a regular.

She can be Neon-green canary for all I care -so long as it's not black.
People are jumping ship with this show, not surprising with the falling viewing numbers. Also there's alot of talk about the set just not being healthy - the actor who played deathstroke got so pissed he literally walk off. The deadshot one isn't far behind ( just in negotiation). Rumor says that the Red Arrow/Arsenal actor wants out. It would be part of a trend.
I don't know what's going on there, but it does not look good.

OK, normally I don't mind your rants but now you're making things up. Arrow's ratings are consistently between 2.5 and 3. That's how it's been all season, with the exception of the Flash crossover, and important episodes (midseason finale, opening episode, etc.). Manu Bennet was disappointed that Slade was so easily defeated. www.comicbookmovie.com/green_arrow/arrow/news/?a=118166Deadshot's dead presumably because of the new movie coming out. Colton Haynes is leaving the show as a regular, but will return later on when he's needed. No one has said it's because he doesn't like the show. It's because his contract is up, and he wants to do new things. There's nothing wrong with that. deadline.com/2015/04/arrow-colton-haynes-exits-1201410756/If you can find how the "set [is] not...healthy" in an article with an actual quote, I'll happily agree with you. Until then, feel free to hate the show, but please don't stretch the truth to argue for your dislike. I get your problems with it, and I can totally empathize with you (if a Spidey movie featured a depressing Peter who acted like gritty 90s Aquaman, I'd be pissed). Just please don't let your anger influence your judgment on what the actors say. EDIT: Even my Deadshot stuff is rumor. Who knows with that? He may not even be dead. |

Creative wise the quality of Arrow has always been highly debatable. Ratings wise the show is actually doing fine. The CW as a network always performs poorly in the spring compared to the fall. It's likely a reflection of their younger skewing demographic that tends to watch less tv once the weather starts improving.

The most recent episode of Arrow had 2.47 million viewers as of the final ratings posted on tv by the numbers. The season average to date is about 2.79 million. A drop for sure, but with rare exceptions all TV shows lose viewers from season to season. Arrow hit a series high in the target demographic this season, and it's most recent episode is actually up in viewers from the same time last year. Whatever issues the show may have creatively (and I'll be the first to agree that those issues are as serious as they are numerous) the ratings are simply not a major concern at this point. EDIT: In fact if you look at the ratings charts you'll see that Arrow has actually improved overall from season 2 to season 3.

So Legends of Tomorrow is a working title but the big change is that TNT has changed the title of Titans to Blackbirds.

It's a rumour, literally anyone can come up with a rumour and have it reported on in this day and age so I wouldn't put any stock in it.

I'm not sure if I'm supposed to but I am shipping Nyssa/Laurel more than anything else on this show. Also I won't spoil it but this episode had my favourite scene in the series, which I'm sure most people won't care about.

I'll say this once - She's not gay.

And shipping has already done enough damage to that show so it would be best to not do more.

I'm not saying she's supposed to be, I'm just saying it's the vibe I'm getting from what's screen.

I can't argue with that, elec, but it would throw me off if Laurel hooks up with Sara's "beloved."
Personally, one of my favorite scenes in the series was in this episode too. Dig's my fav character, and when Ollie was brainwashed and facing off with them, I literally screamed at the TV "Kick his ass, Dig!"

I should point out I don't want them to hook up on screen either, with what I think they're going for with them it would be really creepy. But the beauty of shipping is it doesn't need to keep to canon.
