I'm not too hopeful right now. The game will probably force me to start drinking by the 2nd quarter.

Curious! What's the music they use at the beginning???


On topic, but the first half of AoS S2 was great. Felt that Flash had stronger opening than Arrow. Damien Dakh was the only positive I could say for Arrow. And the villian was the only negative in Flash. Arrow always has that cliffhanger from episode, conclude it from season finale

Still for me, AoS had stronger episodes. Season 2 of AoS was on par with Flash. Season 3 seems to have been surpassed Flash,...till now.

Then he texted me that my ass was soon gonna have an even bigger hole than that one.

Both of these premieres were pretty ridiculous. On The Flash the CG on Atom Smasher was 80s laughable. On Arrow the way Black Canary and Speedy just nonchalantly rode at and casually attacked four bad guys while being shot at with machine guns was on par with some of the worst action movies you only watch clips of on the internet to laugh at. When they went to another island flashback my girlfriend and I both let out a collective "ahhhhhhhh, not again". Still funny to hear the silly voice modulator Arrow uses. Still working with all that boring in-fighting and the tired cops vs. vigilante angle. Not to forget Dingleberry's funny helmet.

Still may keep watching in hopes of seeing Nyssa al Ghul and Huntress.

For a show starring "the fastest man alive" it's a shame it can find a good pace, as for arrow the actors and dialogs are still lame but it's a far more interesting start than usual

great review, Damien being introduced immediately was smart and doing the 6th month fast forward will have everyone guessing until that comes, which i think will be the winter finale for the show taking their hiatus break.
