Arrow 603 Next of Kin Preview


                 Oliver has some problems and he turns to someone for help.  It would seem natural that he would turn to another father.  He has talked a little with Rene, and of course there is Diggle, and the most experienced father would be Lance, but I am guessing that he turns to Felicity. 

Why do I think this?  I think this because he trusts Felicity.  They resolved that issue, and I think he would turn to her, because she knows what it is like to lose a parent, for in effect she lost her father when he left.  She can understand from that point of view,  plus she can give Oliver the encouragement he needs to press on.  Oliver has overcome a lot to get to where he is, and it isn't easy turning things over to someone else, so Felicity can be the one person he can talk things over with.

On a side note, how do you think Diggle will do as the Arrow. It seems Curtis and Rene aren't too sure, and Dinah is the only one who knows the truth about Diggle's injury.  That side of the story should be interesting too.

Looking forward to tonight's episode, are you?

Arrow 512 The Bratva Review

Image
Many good, positive things happened in this episode and some not so good.  Let's begin: Diggle:  Diggle's darkness began last season when he killed his brother.  The guilt of that led Diggle to a dark place where he questions his values.  Diggle beats a man to get he information he wants a bout the nuke that Walker wants to fire.  Oliver had seen the man first, but refrained from beating him. He wanted to give the man time to think,but Diggle cannot wait.  As Diggle is doing this, Rory questions Felicity on what she has done, when Oliver comes in to talk.  Rory told Felicity that when his father had given him the rags he said to "respect and guard the power and don't abuse it, clearly he thinks Felicity is abusing the power she has with the computer.  Oliver interrupts then and Rory says,"I think she's crossed the line."  Oliver gives Felicity a look of concern but runs to Diggle because of what's happened. Diggle has beaten the informant, and Felc

Arrow 514 The Sin Eater Review

  The Sin Eater brings back three formidable female foes: China White, Carrie Cutter, and Liza Warner.  All three of these foes appeared in seasons one and two of Arrow. This whole season has referred back to the first two seasons.  I had forgotten about Liza Warner, until the brief flashback reminded me of who she was. The theme for last night's episode addresed the question,  Can you take on the responsibility of someone else's sins? Antaoly ,  in the Russia flashback, tells Oliver that he is a sin eater by wanting to take on other's sin. This is something Oliver has done for all 5 episodes, isn't it?  Wasn't he trying to make up for his father's sins by crossing off names on a list?  Oliver helped Anatoly in the hospital.  I am guessing that in the next episode we shall find that Oliver killed Gregor before Gregor could kill Anatoly. Quintin Lance feels guilt over Liza Warner, because Liza heard in prison that Lance worked with Damien Dahrk.  He was tak

Inmate #4587 Arrow Review 701

      Season 7 heads the viewers  into  new, fascinating directions. . Wow! is the word that came into mind.  It has a  whole  new  feel to the show.  Let's  say, it's  not the Arrow  we used  to know.  The new showrunner has  given us a new Arrow that could not only last  another  season, but could be carried on into the future with new yet familiar characters. It did, however, leave this reviewer with  many questions. Arrow has  always begun it's new season with Oliver running through the woods, but this time we see William running  in the green hoodie, with Felicity not far behind.  We  find this to be Oliver's nightmare, as we  see  Diaz shoot Felicity.  I also think that this might be a foreshadowing  of the  part William plays  in future events.          Flash Forward:  Instead of  flashbacks we now have  flash forwards to twenty years into the future.  The new showrunner,  Beth Schwartz,  has said  this will continue the duration  of the show from  now an
