Tune in with Turner

I've been out of town and enjoying time away from all technology, and seriously this has been good.  It gives a fresh perspective, but now it's back to work.             According to comicbook.com the big reveal of who made it off the island and who did not, but be a long reveal.  Wendy Mericle has said that by the end of the premiere we would not, but according to comicbook.com, Marc Guggenheim has said it will be a slow reveal. The new season will commence at five months after the explosion with flashbacks showing the minutes before and after the explosion so we may not know who in truth is really dead or alive.  They have Felicity, Curtis, Rene, and Quintin all in jeopardy.  The showrunners have given us too much information on Diggle, Dinah, Oliver, and Slade to know they all made it out safely.  So do any of us seriously entertain the idea that Felicity is dead?  I  don't.  I even doubt that Rene would be de...

 These Olicity moments are what the viewers have been "missing" on Arrow. This season has been the best season of Arrow in many ways from the story to the best villain that has ever appeared on Arrow.  Even with all the angst of not having Felicity and Oliver on the same page has made for a good story.  We've seen so much character growth from our hero and of those around him.  So now for my reveiw: Oliver and Felicity:  The show begins with Oliver and Thea talking, and how we have missed these two. They are moving on with their lives, and Thea wants to go out to dinner with Oliver, but he says he has someplace to go.  Who didn't love Thea's, "Well, I hope it's not with Susan Williams."  When he said it was with Felicity, he looked so shy and cute.  Who didn't love the flirting these two did revealed the sexual tension between the two. When they agreed to take it one step at a time, we all know that these two will be reunited. Viewers' hear...

 We know Yao Fei is going to return, but my guess is that he will come back in the same way Shado and Tommy did in season 2 of Arrow.  He will be some type of motivation for Oliver.  Perhaps this shows up in the Russia flashbacks, because it seems what little I could see of Oliver, he had his longer hair.   Nyssa and Deathstroke will be there, and my guess they will appear in the last two episodes.  Oliver will enlist Slade's help. If  Felicity is the one who is taken in "Missing" and the other team members are in danger, Oliver might think he has no other choice.  What is interesting will be that both men had been friends on the Island, and so it seems fitting that both men should once again be on the island to end this first book of Arrow.   Everyone Oliver loves will be in danger on the island, including Thea.  We haven't seen much of Thea.  So much is at stake for Oliver. He will have to find it the strength within himself to o...

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,...

None of us are perfect; we all make mistakes.  That's why we like characters that are flawed.  We can relate to them. That's what good writers do, they write people that are flawed, even the heroes.  Here are some of Arrows best characters' flaws. Whose do you relate to?    Oliver Queen--He's afraid to trust people.  He has a difficult time letting people in.  He only let's them know a certain part of himself.                                 Felicity--She's too idealistic.  She wants everything to fit neatly in tidy ways, and therefore she's sometimes quick to judge. Diggle-- He probably was the most balanced of all the team members, but he tends to have high expectations.                Quintin Lance--At first it looks like booze his weakness, but why do people drink?  Do they want to escape the realism  of life...
