Yes, I've watched each show the week it was on and really enjoyed it. Looking forward to what happens in the 2nd season and who all will appear. I've heard that Barry Allen is to be a guest.
I enjoyed it alot; definitely watching it this season and it is true Barry will appear on Arrow for three episodes which will lead into a spin off for the Flash.

I had heard he would make an appearance - but never heard anything about spinoff. Cool!
I heard a spinoff was possible; hadn't heard it was for sure.

My favorite books so far from the new 52 Flash, Batman, Justice League and Earth 2.
Natalie wrote: "So far my forays into the New 52 have only been:Justice League, Vol. 1: Origin
Batman and Robin, Vol. 1: Born to Kill
The Savage Hawkman, Vol. 1: Darkness Rising
Blackhawks, Vol. 1: The Great Leap..."
I forgot to mention Batman and Robin; loved it pre-52 and post 52. I love Green Lantern pre and post 52 but cannot get into any of the other GL books now.

I just hope the writers do not have her and Ollie develop a relationship; I just do not see any chemistry between Amell and Glau but it is still early.

I agree with you also about Laurel eventually becoming Black Canary; except the current BC is maybe a missing sister and somehow she dies off and is able to pass on her powers (amazing agility and the Canary Cry.) to Laurel since they are related. I know it sounds crazy but you never know.

Good grief - I didn't realize that was Summer Glau!
He interacts best with Felicity, but does anyone else get tired of every single woman in a TV show or movie looking like a model?
"Oh - just put her hair in a pony tail and give her glasses, and Voila! IT nerd!"
I know that actresses are attractive and these women are all actresses, but good grief. All doctors, lawyers, IT nerds, and rocket scientists I know don't all fit that mold.
That being said, I do think the actress that plays Felicity does a great job, and she does have good chemistry with Ollie.
I think I even enjoy the show more than I did last season. I like the direction with "no more killing" - it was good to see a struggle with conscious and come to that conclusion. I think it makes the character more interesting and gives him more depth.
Mod
Talia? That would be awesome!

Next episode: (view spoiler)
Looking forward to this week. I'm pretty sure Arrow returns, yes?
Anyone know when the first spin off show starts!?!?!!? (don't want to be a spoiler . . . but if you watched the mid-seaon finale you know what I'm talking about!?!?!?!)
I have heard great things about this show, but I have just not had any time to watch it! How close is the show to the actual story of Green Arrow?

The tone has been really dark and no one calls him Green Arrow for now,he doesn't make corny jokes and stuff.. It'll start getting more towards the comics from Season 4
Mod
I'm enjoying it. (Still could do without the Amanda Waller backstory shoe-horned in.) But I like the new Speedy :)
But did anyone catch the Green Lantern Easter Egg in the last episode????
I've enjoyed the first season. Though I had the last 6 episodes sitting on my DVR and haven't been able to get to them this summer. I have the last 2 episodes still to watch before the new season starts.
I think it's been a pretty enjoyable show. Is anyone else watching?
