Arrow 803 Review: Leap of Faith

Image
      Readers, I stepped  back a bit before I  watched Arrow's Leap  of  Faith episode.  Without the Felicity/Oliver story line, I  felt the show did offer what I wanted in a story.  Then I  listened to my readers who looked  for an honest review, which I don't think they fully got from  me, because  I wasn't interested in the story anymore.  In fact one reader said "If you don't feel you can enjoy the show  anymore, perhaps you  shouldn't watch.  She  had a  point.  I considered  not watching, but then I thought, what if I watch the next episode  of Arrow  as though it were a new show, one I  had not seen before, would that change anything?  In fact as Stephen Amell has  stated, the Arrow we knew ended  with season 7, so that's what I did I watched this episode  as if  I  had not ever  seen the show before, and it honestly ...

    As this reviewer reads online articles and read the various Olicity Facebook posts  and blogs, I see the ever increasing  concern  about the hopes  of  a  Queen baby dashed.  I'm hoping to reassure  you that those  are  all misdirects from the  writers.  Tight-lipped Beth gives very little  away.  She hints that  Felicity  and Oliver are unconnected the Blackstar,  whom we at first were told  was to be Maya, but now we find her called Mia.  Those who have followed  Arrow for a  long time understand all the misdirects.  We  did hear  that on episode 713 which  is airs  Monday, we  will get a big reveal. I'm going out on a limb and  say what one  big reveal probably is.  William's  home and Oliver and Felicity are  having trouble trying to reach and understand William.  They are facing their first real parentin...

Irreconcilable Differences Arrow 609 Review

          According  to Stephen  Amell this mid-season  finale sets the stage for the next  half of the season.  He  said it would be different from the past because it had no real  cliffhanger.  Those statements proved  correct, but it still had left  this  viewer with  a shock, because I had come  to  like Rene, and had  hoped it would have been Evelyn.      The best part of the show of course  for Olicity fans had to be the wedding reception .  Oliver  nervously waiting for Felicity to show up had a natural  feel to it.  So many things have gone wrong for them in the past five seasons. It has  to be difficult for  him to think that he could indeed really have it all.  I have to be honest, it also made me a little  nervous wondering  if it foreshadows some future event  on Arrow.  We know that Cayden James...
