Magic, Science and 4 Possible Game-Changers, Arrow “Taken”
Magic totems. Animal channeling. And a ghostly gatekeeper. This episode may have been filled with far-fetched whimsy, but it also brought us some very real story lines. Oliver grappled with the realities of parenthood. Thea was finally forced to see the truth. Darhk lost the upper-hand. And Felicity’s life took…
Superheroes on TV: Villains
There’s something to be said for a good bad-guy. Someone so dastardly and twisted a character that they really push a protagonist to their limits. Without a good villain, it’s hard to have a great hero. The Flash seems to be the exception to this rule (the TV series at…
Secrets Weigh Heavy, Arrow “Code of Silence”
Secret keeping. It’s always been an issue for the characters of this show and pretty much everyone has done it. I guess it just comes with the territory when you’re suiting up and saving lives as a vigilante. But that doesn’t mean it always comes easy to them. Or that it’s always…

Betrayal Comes From All Sides, Arrow “Sins of the Father”
Talk about an episode filled with betrayal! This week may have been about the “Sins of the father,” but when it came down to back-stabbing, side-stepping and throwing people under the bus, it seems like everyone got on board. Obviously, the greatest offender was Malcolm Merlyn as he feigned handing…

The Past Comes Back To Haunt, Arrow “A.W.O.L”
This week was all about the past. Well, okay, not ALL about the past — Felicity is still in a wheelchair and Darhk is still on the loose and A.R.G.U.S (remember them?), yeah, they’re still masterminding some seriously messed up stuff — but it had a lot to do with…
Five Things We Learned in Arrow “Blood Debts”
Arrow is back and Felicity’s fate has been revealed! But that wasn’t the only thing that we learned in “Blood Ties.” For an episode that served to set up the rest of the season, it did a great job of picking up where we left off while also giving us…
It’s All About Taking Responsibility, Arrow “Dark Waters”
Umm, did we just find out who’s in the grave?! With all of Arrow‘s fake-outs and red herrings, it feels a little too obvious, but then again, if you want a big, meaningful death, this could be it. Obviously, I’m talking about the Felicity post-engagement limo bloodbath. It was bad….

Thank Me Later: Will Trent
[Warning: spoilers ahead.] I’m on record as loving and losing shows over at ABC so I’m usually very reticent to pick something up on the network until it’s been renewed, and I seriously hope I’m not jinxing it, but I took a chance on the deeply odd and very sweet…

Two Takes: The Catch “The Knock-Off”

What They Said: Top 4 Quotable Moments from Black Sails “XXIII”
The dialogue in “XXIII” is phenomenal. It’s always a fun ride when Black Sails carries its viewers along without giving them the chance to catch their breath. When an episode moves at this unforgiving pace, there is no chance for a breather nor is there a respite from the information…
What Lucifer Said: Favorite quotes from Supernatural “O Brother, Where Art Thou?”
Supernatural episodes are almost always funny but thanks to the dialogue and a certain man speaking said dialogue, I laughed a lot during “O Brother, Where Art Thou?” You know, when I wasn’t busy fearing for Sam’s life or wondering what in the world was going on with Dean and…
What They Said: The Flash, “Legends Of Today” and Arrow, “Legends Of Yesterday”
Two nights of Arrow + The Flash = what more could we ask for?! I don’t know what it is about blending these shows, but I can’t help but feel that every time they come together, they somehow become greater than the sum of their parts. And that’s saying a lot…
What they Said: Top 4 Quotable Moments from Graceland “Little Bo Bleep”
Shoot outs. Fake outs. And long-awaited revelations. “Little Bo Bleep” was a jam-packed episode that wrapped up some loose ends and totally frayed others. Â It finally gave us one Sarkissian in jail and pulled back the curtain on Briggs’ master plan, but it also set up Jakes for a world…
