 "Arrow" (Season 2)
 Season premiere is tonight at 8PM on The CW. I'll be watching, maybe not live but definitely on Hulu or something. The first season was surprisingly good - it was exciting and had nice performances and production value. It was probably one of the better freshman dramas last year.

 Re: "Arrow" (Season 2)
Looks like the first season was just added to Netflix Instant too for anyone looking to catch up.

 Re: "Arrow" (Season 2)
LOL @ Felicity getting put front and center in that promo pic while Laurel is shunted off to the side. As it should be.

 Re: "Arrow" (Season 2)
The three characters in the middle are actually important to the main premise of the show, so it makes sense that Felicity is where she is. It does amuse me how she has managed to go from a bit character (and I believe, one with only a limited amount of planned appearances) to pretty much the female lead of the show.
Super looking forward to this show's return.

 Re: "Arrow" (Season 2)
Stephen Amell shirtless for an extended period of time right at the beginning of the premiere. Thank you, show, for continuing to cater to me.
It was also a really good episode.

 Re: "Arrow" (Season 2)
Good episode, except for any parts involving Laurel. She's just... there, looking beautiful, but adding so very little.
When Ollie said "I still need you in my life", my first thought was "Why does he need her to be in his life? I'm pretty sure she's not even needed on this show", because come on.

 Re: "Arrow" (Season 2)
While everyone else keeps getting better and better, Laurel becomes more laughable.
But yeah this season has had a rock solid first two episodes.

 Re: "Arrow" (Season 2)
Damn this season is brilliant. With how much of the DC universe they're expanding into, it'll be crazy to see where they'll go in eventual seasons.
Flash will be here in a few weeks.

 Re: "Arrow" (Season 2)
OK I saw Black Canary being Laurel's presumed dead sister coming a while ago but, still, cool twist. Maybe this will make Laurel moderately interesting (making her a possible alcoholic is a good start too!)

 Re: "Arrow" (Season 2)
Yeah throwing in an alcoholic story to a show would usually make me roll my eyes, but it works for Laurel.

I mean, I figure there's no harm in it, she's the worst thing about the show by far at this point. They even somehow managed to redeem Thea and make her a likable, interesting character rather than a one-note brat.

 Re: "Arrow" (Season 2)
Yeah, Thea has been greatly improved this season. Laurel needs this kind of plot.

 Re: "Arrow" (Season 2)
Another terrific episode. I really hope Sara becomes a permanent addition to the cast eventually, Caity Lotz is really good in the role.

 Re: "Arrow" (Season 2)
Caity Lotz has a way of speaking that kind of annoys me, like she's got a stuffed nose or something. I still like her, though, as long as I don't pay too much attention to that.

 Re: "Arrow" (Season 2)
The Flash is introduced tonight!
Also the first part of the midseason finale.
This show has been really good this season. It makes "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D" look like such a mess in comparison.

 Re: "Arrow" (Season 2)
I kind of saw Slade coming in early in the episode but not in the context he did. The Flash origin scene was excellent.
