Willow ,'End of Days'
A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
River Tam beats up everyone! (Okay, not EVERYONE, but hey.)
I had this half-cocked theory that Isabel is Slade's daughter (although the ages don't really work), and Slade's daughter in the comics is a CRAZY BADASS. And I said, if it were true, if Isabel were Slade's daughter, then we might just get River Tam Beats Up Everyone.
But I didn't actually *expect* it. (Well, we don't know what her relationship to Slade is. But we DID just get sweet ass-kicking. YES.)
JESUS TAPDANCING CHRIST.
I am drinking an adult beverage.
Boy, that's a lot of plot crammed into 45 mins.
I kinda... agreed with Roy that handing Slade over to SCPD was a bit of a bone-headed move? Although I am willing to hand wave a lot of stuff to have awesome scenes like the core three of Team Arrow having their solidarity moment at the end.
I need a backstory on Slade/Isabel like yesterday. And I know he's a crazed supervillian who is creepily fixated on a dead girl who he wasn't even dating, but boy, Manu Bennett is so handsome.
Holy fucking shit.
Seriously, that episode was only one hour long?
Manu Bennett is so handsome.
He really is. Although I prefer Island (pre-Mirakuru) version to Hell-Bent On Vengeance In A Business Suit version.

I KNOW. When Ollie shot Slade with the venom arrow, I looked at the clock and only 15 minutes had gone by. I was drinking an adult beverage by the half-hour mark.
I look forward to Roy returning to town as Arsenal. (That's total speculation, not spoiler.)
And I guess we got confirmation that Quentin really IS that unobservant. I'm distressed about his arrest.
And the last scene shouldn't be surprising, and yet it shocked the hell out of me.
Also? Compared to Deathstroke in the comics? Manu Bennett is still underplaying the role. Which means he still has room to crank things up a few more notches.

Hell, he's underplaying compared to Slade in Teen Titans. (Who was awesome.)
Manu Bennett is the best. "I'm not one to hold a grudge."
The idea of Slade walking around the city and telling All Teh Secretz is the funniest thing that's happened on any secret identity show ever.
