The one character that should leave, doesn't leave... **** this. It seriously is The Felicity Show. She literally stopped a nuke with a iPad, lulz.

The one character everyone wants to leave says "no chance". A legit FU to the Arrow fans by Guggenheim .

Rofl totally!

Really bummed about these last two seasons, this used to be one of my favorite shows and now it's at the point where I'm not watching season 5 unless I hear great things about it after it has finished. This season was just all over the place, it showed so much promise for improvement, but then just ended up becoming their worst season yet.

I feel your pain man, I think all of us at some point felt the same way. This use to be one of the best shows on television. I use to equate to Batman: TAS as the best live action comic book show, but it has fallen off Dexter's cliff where once great shows go to die.

My personal ratings:
Arrow season 1: 9/10
Arrow season 2: 10/10
Arrow season 3: 6.5 -7/10
Arrow season 4: 5/10

Flash season 1: 9/10
Flash season 2: 7/10

Legends of tomorrow: 4.5 -5/10

I haven't watched super girl. I'm just not into anything superman related really.

Arrow season 1 and 2 were both great. Season 3 had its flaws but I thought the LoT stuff was pretty cool to watch. I think if they handled ollie falling from the cliff better it would have been a much better season. I enjoyed it though. Season4 started off strong but there were way too many breaks it seemed like this season. When the show came back from hiatus I totally had a hard time following and it almost seemed like the writers took a break permanately.

To me the main problem with season 4 is that it dragged out so long with all those breaks you almost didn't care what was going on. I felt myself watching it just because I'm a fan but really didn't care for the plot anymore. They need to trim down the season to 18 episodes or have less breaks. I think they had breaks 3 times this season?

I get Olicty won't ever go away, or maybe felocity won't, but they can lesson her role just a bit. To me this is the second biggest problem of the show (the first being the extended breaks).

If I were to assume 7 seasons of arrow, I'm okay with flashbacks one more season for the Russia part. I would love to see flash forwards though in its final season the way Lost handled it's final season. To me arrow sorta reminds me of that show. Couple great seasons, an average season and mediocre at best. I'm hoping for a good season 5. I don't think they can top season 2 obviously but if they can get back into street fighting and away from the hocus pocus then the olicity stuff will be tolerable.

As for my Flash ratings, season 2 just seemed underwhelming. Can't quite put my finger on it. Legends of tomorrow is a terrible show but I'll keep watching just for the crossovers. Those were the best episodes to me. The acting and action sequence is ridiculous and cheesy. Sara is probably the best character on the show ironically.

The season finale was so bad it caused the Arrow reddit to change to Daredevil. I'm not exactly sure why, but no one over there has been pleased with this show at all this year.

I hope he 'organically' walks into a telephone pole

 

[Herolee10]

It's pretty sad to think that by the end of this, you have the likes of Atom and Mister Terrific looking up to Felicity and coming off as incompetent heroes when paired up with her.....while having her be the one in charge of owning/running Palmer-Tech (which used to be Queen Industries), where it'll eventually become Smoak Industries someday. Not to mention, that Felicity kicked Oliver out of his own pad, which formerly belonged to Thea.

This was very, very good.

 

[DCnightwing23]

So Emergency Awesome essentially blames LOT for Arrow's rough S4 (understatement) stating that LOT took Guggenheim's time (he calls him the shows BEST writer, wtf?) which led to a inconsistent S4. What a load of crap.

Did Emergency Awesome not watch season three (which I am actually sort of looking back with a bit of fondness now after season four, that actually made me stop watching the show entirely).

 

[Snow Queen]

This season was very consistent. It was just consistently bad.

I stopped watching Emergency Awesome awhile ago. Too much fluffy, a lot of "wrong" info, and well his interpretation of stuff seems a bit... inconsistent with reality.

 

[Supernova]

Weak finale to a terrible season. Somehow this season managed to be more boring and weak then season 3 and made felicity even more annoying. The showrunners for arrow should be ashamed of themselves for giving the fans a crappy ending. Legends ends with justice society of america and flash ends with flashpoint paradox while arrow ends with diggle joining the army and oliver and darhk having a street fight parody of the dark knight rises.

 

[Reek]

well, take care folks. I'm done with the show now. this was my last season.

this finale was dog **** btw lol

I dont think I was ever this bored on any finale, I kept surfing the net on my
Phone

 

[The Chris]

I foolishly watched the finale. As a huge fan of The Dark Knight Rises, that battle scene may have been one of the worst homages/rip offs I've ever seen. Good lord it stunk. The writing was a dud, the acting lifeless. Out of the 3 CW DC Shows that was the worst of the finales for me by far.

 

[Kar]

So who is the villain for season 5? Guggenheim?

 

[Slade W]

Ugh, again? He has been the villain for the last two seasons, and he just keeps doing the same thing over and over again.

 

[Slade W]

Oliver getting the people of Starling City behind him to fight Darhk was a nice nod to Green Arrow City Walls.

 

[javonstokess]

The show went sideways to me when it continually kept going to the "Batman" well.

Seasons 1 and 2 felt like a "Green Arrow" show. Once they dipped into the League of Assassins pool, they never recovered.

 

[SpideyVille]

So who is the villain for season 5? Guggenheim?

No, it's the fans. Oliver faces his toughest challenge yet, and will require the help of Felicity and her Legion to fend off all of those who stand in her way.

You're kidding, right? S1 had Batman Begins written all over it.

 

[SpideyVille]

It had the tone of Batman Begins, but ... wait you're right, it totally copied the overall arc of the movie too. Dammit!
