if you're not going to have him using trick arrows like he does in the comics

Oh, how I long for just one boxing-glove arrow. JUST ONE.

But I really like how gung ho they seem to be going with her and Merlyn without demonising either of them--I really hope that they're not building that up for a reveal of same.

I'm ALL ABOUT Tommy and Dinah. I'm a little surprised at how invested in them I am. Mostly because of Tommy, I think.

I want more Paul Blackthorne too

I like Cop Daddy, but I wish they'd back off the I Hate The Queen Family schtick.

In conclusion, holy crap, Jack Harkness is Tommy's dad! What a pretty, pretty family.

Oh, god yes! I wasn't sure if I was supposed to know that or not, though. That's the kind of detail I'd miss.

I have to say--two helmet fake/reveals in one ep is pushing things, especially since the biker was clearly (narratively) female. And the way she killed him was one of the worst pieces of TV "combat" I've seen even before you get into the size/weight differential.

Tommy's really nice. I'm glad they didn't go the way of Ollie (seriously, no one name your kid Oliver or nick them Ollie--that's awful) being surrounded with shallow and materialistic friends that he'd have to grin and bear as part of his disguise--that would have been my breaking point.

That was pretty ridiculous.

I admit I'm a sucker for the you-understand-my-lonely-crusade-therefore-let-us-kiss-with-tongue storyline. I'm 100% on board with Ollie and Helena.

Haley Webb (one of the Final Destinations?) is joining Teen Wolf : [link] (spoilery for season's opening scene and Haley's rumoured role)

I'm 100% on board with Ollie and Helena.

Their argument was kind of confusing. "You shouldn't kill the people who killed your boyfriend." "You're killing people that were dirty like your dad!" and then there was just eyefucking and then tongue. I mean, not a lot of explaining of themselves, for all the relief they found in someone they could be honest with...I guess exhaling is enough for now.

However she, like Green Lantern's GF, pointed out how crappy the obscuring your eyes costume is--but she's only known him hours, not years. How is he not going to be busted with his face all over the media?

Magical Hoodie.

That's all I got.

Also, he seems to actually have superpowers.He could have caught the motorcycle if he had not been blocked by the truck?

So some of the herbs that saved his life were superserum?

(Alex O'Loughlin, eat your heart out).

In all fairness to my lust object, he did get injured and then develop an addiction to pain meds so that he had cut down on doing his own stunts. If he feels bad about it, I will be happy to console him in any way that he so desires.

Crixus cast on Arrow!

They really do nab all the pretty.

That [casting spoiler] gave me a HUGE happy. Plus, my god, he's pretty.
