I'm officially done. I'm going to finish S4 just so it's all wrapped up nicely but I can't stay on this shitty ride anymore /co/. It takes a lot for me to truly dislike a show and actually stop watching it, especially when it's not going to be cancelled but this last episode did it. It had so much hope, no felicity for like 35 minutes and the possibility of Black Canary/Arrow getting together, and then it just took the ultimate plunge.
>>
I stopped watching during the first episode when he ran up to those fishermen so he could dramatically kneel in front of them and throw back his hood.
Even if it got better after that, nothing would be able to erase that stupid scene from my mind.

I've had enough of watching full seasons of shit-tier television for a small handful of gems.
>>
>>81615512

Yeah it takes me awhile too, I get too emotionally invested. I feel like their writing the show out of spite towards those that don't like it. The last couple episodes feel like a jab "You don't like Olicitiy OH YEAH WELLm FUCK YOU! FUCKING DIE LAUREL! TAKE THAT FANS!"

The showrunners are shows true villains. In outside of their reality force causing evil and pain for the characters.

I liked Arrow s1 and s2; sure it was cheesey but then it is a comic book show on the CW. It was entertaining enough and I remember how awesome it was during season 2.


Arrow season 3 was pretty sloppy; bad writing and awful fight scenes. Arrow season 4 isn't much better either... Felicity makes Oliver act like a beta cuck all the time and the fight choreography still sucks. The Green Arrow has kind of taken a back seat in his own show and the flashback scenes suck. I want to see him learning and training rather than filler storylines.

What happened on those other two shows?
>>
>>81618216

Sleepy Hollow killed off one of its leads even though the quality banter between the duo is the only reason people were still watching.

Scandal had its main character beat a cripple to death with a metal chair as her "breaking bad" moment even though it made no sense and came out of nowhere.

Well sleepy hollow killed one of the two main characters in the season finale (after a mid season finale ended with the cast thinking she was dead so that had much less impact) and through the explanation of "mystical bullshit that makes her eternal soul jump to an extended family member" are basically gonna replace her.

Every time I watch The Flash I genuinely wonder how it can be so completely different from Arrow.
It's like Flash is made by some weird alternate CW that has nothing to do with Arrow at all.

>>81620685
Well, that explains why it as a show refuses to tone down the zanyness of Flash comics and why Iris (the sole source of arbitrary CW drama) has gradually been made less and less relevant over time as the show went on.
Literally the opposite of what Arrow did.

Here's the thing, Mr Baitman.
If she DIDN'T fake her death, it's a callous treatment to an integral character to the mythos and story, not to mention the actress who was randomly axed by deduction of interests for the sake of a cheap drama jerkoff.
If she DID fake her death, then it's even MORE offensively bad writing for faking a character death for cheap drama jerkoff. From no matter what execution this is fucking insulting to the character and audience.

No they weren't they were both shit. Soap opera moledrama with idiotic characters constantly whining at one another (mostly at ollie) and idiotic action. Also what they did to Slade in season 2 was unforgivable.

I still sorta like the show (but agree that after midseason 2 they clearly had no plan) but hate how they basically keep making it a new show every few months. After that they got a new chief and a few new characters like that thief guy only to throw them all away and start season 3 with 2 FBI agents and Corbin's son. Now come s4 a few of those people will probably be gone and the setting will most likely be different. You can make changes but it isn't a good idea to basically make a show a new thing each season. Find something and stick with it or else no one will care because they know these new characters will be gone and forgotten 10 episodes later.

>>81627011
They killed Abbie. Next season Crane will be looking for whatever second cousin or other distant relative that has become the new witness. It just seemed like a reason to get a new actor.

I dropped it a few episodes ago and haven't looked back. Thankfully Flash is still entertaining and I can catch up on LoT to fill in for Arrow

During and after Season 3 I defended the show because any show can have a bad season (and god was it awful). I don't regret it.

But personally I gave up during the winter break, when it was shown that Felicity would survive Darhk's attack. I gave them a second chance to get me, and they had a fine start of season 4 (I would even say a better first few episodes than Flash), but now they fucked up really hard.

One okay season, one good and two awful ones. I never got what a non-DCfan got out of it, but now I don't even know what's left for us. I like the cast, but not enough to deal with bad everything else. So long Arrow.
>>
>>81627210
Because there was a time where, after a Arrow Begins season, they were pandering to us. Say what you will, but we wouldn't have got Flash without Arrow.

But then it seems as if everyone who cares about comics went to Flash, only leaving the typical CW writers on Arrow. Even Supernatural, in it's Season 11, has more clever moments and wit than Arrow nowadays

Sadly enough I am actually a Flashwagon jumper. I watched all of S1-2 and the half of 3 that was out of Arrow during the midseason break. I enjoyed it, and even enjoyed it still rewatching 1 and 2 last month.

Season 3 and 4 have been abominations.

Stopped watching the series after the episode where Darhk kidnaps the kid. Instead of Felicity coming to better understand and appreciate how Oliver thinks and acts and the fact that he only keep secrets to protect the people he cares about, not hurt them... she throws a bitchfit and calls off their engagement for not spilling the beans about his illegitimate child, despite them literally dealing with the EXACT FUCKING SCENARIO which motivated Oliver to keep him a secret in the first place.


My gut told me shit would only go downhill from there. Turns out I made the right call.


At least Flash is still pretty decent.
