All shows eventually run out of stories and I think we are at this point with Arrow. It just feels like the writers are throwing shite up against the wall to see if it sticks and It's not happening.

This show is so for away from the Billionaire kid that comes back as a vigilante with a purpose to essentially a broke Ex-con that can't even be the "hero" that he was because everyone knows who the hell he is.

This show has been trash since they forced the Felicity romance. Probably before that. Sorry you held on that long.

Yeah this thread is late. I think that sometimes it's "ok" for a show to end. To me, everything after season 2 has just been the writers coming up with a new villain of the season plotline to keep the show going because it pulls in good ratings.

I haven't been holding on. But I haven't been eager to watch. I catch it whenever on demand when I want some background noise while working at home. I actually paid a little better attention than I have been in some time when I watch this episode and really thought it was awful.

After the crossover event Crisis on Earth-X, I stopped watching both Arrow and Flash. I enjoyed watching both shows, but just lost interest. I keep up with it by reading reviews and I did watch the Elseworlds crossover, but that's about it for now.

It lost it back in the 2nd half of season 3. A different Oliver returned after falling off the cliff.

As much as I hate to say it, flash fell even faster.

I think they're setting it up for Season 8 to be its last season.

Elseworlds STRONGLY hinted that Oliver, not Barry or Kara, would be the one to die during Crisis on Infinite Earths.

Legitimately happened. To be “fair” she had an implant placed that was suppose to make her walk again but up to that point hadn’t worked.

I've actually been enjoying this season of Arrow. I thought the prison stuff was pretty fun.

It's a little better now that he puts on the hood again, and his sister is hot.

Arrow started losing it when they began moving from "hard-assed vigilante trying to right the wrongs of his father" to "how angsty can we make a former hard-assed vigilante".

Flash is similar but to a lesser extent.
