[QUOTE=Funktastic Dog;47440070]I really really hope [sp]When Barry goes back in time, he saves the real Dr. Wells. So shitty what happened to him. Fuck Eobard. The actor they got to play Eobard was pretty good, so I feel like they could keep the dynamic they have with real Harrison Wells in season 2.[/sp][/QUOTE][sp]If Barry does that he'll lose his powers for 5 years because the original particle accelerator didn't explode until 2020. [/sp]
[sp]Or wait... The writers have confirmed that when Eobard became Wells, he merged with him, gaining a lot of his emotions and memories... you remember where else we've seen this? Firestorm. Now, I know the situations are different... but it's not out of the realm of possibility that you could splice Eobard and Harrison away from each other somehow[/sp]
[QUOTE=SoUl_ReApEr2;47436081]what's with the god annoying delays[/QUOTE] They need to reserve new episodes for May(including the finale), which is an important month for counting ratings. This leaves a certain amount of new episodes for March and April, which they are trying to space out as best they can. It's how US television works.

[QUOTE=Kirbyfactor;47400376]Man, [sp]Deadshot's death[/sp] felt so rushed and lame. Really underwelming[/QUOTE] Personally, [sp]I thought that all of a sudden his change of heart about him sacrificing his life so that the Diggles could see their daughter was a bit out of character for him. I think that he used that as a convenient cover, a convenient motive so that he could make it look like he died during the mission and for a believable reason - which of course means freedom from Amanda Waller and his imprisonment at A.R.G.U.S. Besides all that, they started a flashback thread about him in that episode and didn't finish it. That makes it pretty obvious to me that they plan on using the character some more. I think it's incredibly likely that he survived.[/sp]

Arrow episode was good, I liked it. The ending and promo trailer are intriguing, but now we have to wait two damn weeks for next episodes. Awesome!

Just play the episodes when they're finished.[/QUOTE] What world do you live in where television is a dying medium? Do you mean the act of physically watching things on a TV screen, because you'd be right then. But TV shows are only getting more and more popular every year. Everyone I know keeps up to date with at least 3-4 shows.

Well I don't watch the Arrow and Flash on TV simply because I don't watch TV. I watch it online, but most of the views are coming from the television I bet.
Last Arrow episode was amazing
[QUOTE=RocketRacer;47436825]Three weeks, actually.[/QUOTE] I looked at the wrong week
Can we start saying what the spoilers are for before we tag them? Like if you meant Flash you'd put "Flash: SPOILERTAG" etc. It's really starting to bug me as I want to discuss The Flash's last episode, but don't wanna take risks in having Arrow's next episode (18) spoilt.
New Arrow trailer up [video=youtube;WFk7uixvN9s]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFk7uixvN9s[/video] [sp]Roy ;_;[/sp] [sp]Dat "I am Al Saheem, Warif al Ghul, Heir to the Demon and YOU WILL OBEY!"[/sp]
So we're finally getting a version of that Supermax Green Arrow script that roamed the net years ago?

It's the same what I did in TWD: S1 and S2 video game threads, saying what episode spoilers are for.

I just can't see them two getting together after I've seen Felicity in The Flash episodes before I started watching Arrow and how she then, well, fell in love with Ray. But overall, it looks incredible! We almost got the answer to why exactly (Flash rest of season trailer spoilers)[sp]Oliver was in League of Assassin's robes fighting Reverse Flash.[/sp]

This is just brilliant. [video=youtube;Au_ZzTZ6FzQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Au_ZzTZ6FzQ[/video]
arrow hypetrain: spotted last somewhere in deep space
[QUOTE=RoboChimp;47442055]Well it's a good think television is a dying medium, because it seems like US television is run by assholes. Just play the episodes when they're finished.[/QUOTE] Here in the US, commercials pay for the shows. How much they can charge for commercials is determined by how high the ratings are. The ratings are sampled in three periods(sweeps)Nov/Feb/May. If a tv show has 23 or 24 episodes a year, it needs to reserve 3 or 4 episodes for each of those months, leaving the rest of the episodes to be shown throughout the year, from Sept to May is the tv season. You can't show a new episode every week from Sept to May when you only make 24 per year.

Currently watching The Scientist. Oh Barry, what did they do to you?
[QUOTE=Sir Whoopsalot;47464246]Currently watching The Scientist. Oh Barry, what did they do to you?[/QUOTE] Is it the episode from Arrow S2? If so, what do you mean by 'what did they do to him'?
[QUOTE=RocketRacer;47464360]Is it the episode from Arrow S2? If so, what do you mean by 'what did they do to him'?[/QUOTE] His intro episode. Basically, he's a male Felicity. Yeah, I get that this Barry is younger than when he got his powers in the comics but I'm relatively sure he wasn't an awkward doofus in the comics. [editline]5th April 2015[/editline] Then again, considering what happened to The Atom, I suppose I should be happy he's not that bad.
He's a different character from comics entirely, in both first and current episodes. But yea he was awkward in first appearance but his sole presence made entire episode better because of his attitude and everything. It's just so contrasting to anyone on the show.

[QUOTE=RoboChimp;47467201]Who's that woman Barry was talking to?[/QUOTE] Felicity Smoak, she just doesn't wear glasses and has curly hair.
I remember years ago, Canadian channels used to ignore American air dates, and would air episodes even when they were not airing in America. But I think the american channels/publishers got upset and made us stick to the same schedule so people wouldn't just pirate it for the early watch. I remember watching Stargate Atlantis 3 episodes ahead of America.
