Yeah, Felicity's about-face due to the dress and necklace felt very off. Especially because up to this point she had been rightly telling Palmer his behavior was creepy.
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

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.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I've been enjoying Brandon Routh as Ray Palmer a lot
I have to give Brandon Routh MAJOR props, because Ray Palmer is being a creepy creeper AND YET he's ridiculously endearing. (Also, the show's not even being remotely subtle with the Palmer Tech logo is it? Plus the whole dwarf star mining thing [handwave handwave] and the suit specs.)
YOU HAVE NO ONE BUT YOURSELF TO BLAME, OLIVER. Poor idiot.
That man is so lousy at relationshipping. I enjoyed Diggle busting him about his bullshit "I can't be with anyone" line.
On the other hand, WTF Diggle, telling Felicity that Ollie can't get his head in the game because of her??? I enjoyed Felicity telling Diggle that it is 100% not her problem that Ollie can't use his words like an adult. Because she's right.
I will be so happy if we never see that DJ again. And yet I fear we're going to see a lot more of him. Meh. Can't Daddy Merlyn take him out?
I kind of liked Cupid, despite the fact that she did that bullshit little-girl vocal inflection that drives me up the damn wall. You are a grown-ass woman. Talk like one.

Not sure if Krysten Ritter is right for the role, but I like Krysten Ritter.
I can totally hear her saying "Oh, my god, Clint! You had sex with her?" to Jeremy Renner just before they find out that "Wanda" was a Doombot.

Yeah, annoying DJ was annoying. I especially didn't appreciate him "saving the day" after Thea rightfully kicked him out for being a pompous ass earlier.
Someone on another board mentioned they were expecting Cupid to try to start crap in the club and Thea to take her down hard, which would have been amusing.

I was wondering if that would happen, but I don't think the show wants to tip its hand about Thea being a badass this early. And, hey, if annoying DJ comes back, maybe Roy can parkour at him.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Third time's a charm. Fox orders yet another Global Frequency pilot: [link]
Produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, written by Rockne S. O’Bannon (who is kind of responsible for Constantine), so it's probably going to suck.

Wasn't he involved with Farscape though?

He was, so that's promising, right?
Man, that 2005 pilot was so good.

Wrt Arrow. I am a little surprised with myself in how hard I am in the Oliver Felicity camp. I actively dislike Ray. And am miffed with Felicity being all enamoured of the dress and jewels to the point that she was. Her speaking about how great a guy he is and his intentions for the minerals being only for good felt unearned. Now granted Ollie is relationship stupid and not talking to her and just getting over himself is an issue, but I think I feel there should be more eps of just middle ground with all this, not fancy dresses and dates and kisses. I scowled.
Dj guy for some reason did not bother me. But if it results in angry face Roy, I will hate everything. I have enjoyed Roy so much more this season since we are not just getting angry face bad acting there.
Lastly, go away Laurel.
