That is the only real difference in the shows, Arrow does not have a Dr. Wells type character. Well and better villains..
They stopped focusing on Oliver and GA and more about his stupid relationship... They fridged laurels development as well and ran with the tumblr favorite Felicity. Got rid of Roy, Deathstroke, Moira even made it interesting but her death was solid. The writing has lacked so much the last 2 seasons. Killing BC or not setting her up well hasn't helped. Really not sure what to expect going fwd except more sad Oliver bs and Felicity cockteasing and being a total b [Reply]

And I completely understand. This last show was a one hour pity party for Oliver and his Scooby gang. And if I hear Oliver tell one more person "I can't let you do that; that's not who you are" I will stab him in the heart with one of his own arrows. I used to really enjoy this show - now it's turned into "As the World Turns" soap opera bad. (Just my opinion of course) :-) [Reply]

Yep it really has...basically called Felicity and friends. Now that you know who is gone Quentin will be second fiddle to everyone and probably be Felicity's mom's husband or boy toy. They need to reevaluate for season 5 esp with the backlash from the death... [Reply]
Actually liked tonight's episode... Felicity wasn't too annoying but I'm more on the path of more Oliver less team...interesting to see that magic on Oliver's side and thea is stuck in wayward Pines light. Diggle may be taking time away ID think after killing Andy. Ready for the season to close and hope season 5 explores what made s1 and 2 awesome. [Reply]

Just use Tigress and Sportsmaster as minibosses with Cheshire or Spyder as the main villain. [Reply]
