23 Jan

arrow-00002

Welcome back, Arrow-heads!  Here’s what you need to know so far: Laurel has discovered Sebastian is a stone cold psychopath who murdered his dad as a child and locked away his mom in a mental ward.  Thea’s become aware of Roy’s super strength, but not of the possible side effects of the Mirakuru in him, like the tendency to rage out.  In the past, Slade raged out and ran off from Ollie and Sara.  And finally, Ollie is making friends with Sebastian as the Arrow.  Oooh, let’s see how that plays out this week… Continue reading

Welcome to 2014, Arrow-heads!  Here’s a quick recap of things that happened last time: that super drug from the island is still around, thanks to Slade being revealed as the architect of the troubles in Starling City.  That super-drug has also made its way into Roy, and Ollie’s keeping an eye on him while hunting down Brother Blood.  Too bad he doesn’t know Mr. Blood is running for mayor of the city.  Felicity gets a boyfriend, who ends up comatose thanks to a freak accident.  And Ollie gets a mask.  How does the new year start for everyone?  With a bang!

ARROW Season 2×09, “Three Ghosts” recap

12 Dec

arrow-00002Welcome back, Arrow-heads, and boy, we got a lot to cover before we get started here. Let’s start with the island flashbacks as our group gets to that sub with the super-serum, and injects Slade with it to save his life…which seems to kill him instead. Things in the present aren’t as rosy either, with Ollie discovering a plot to make more of this compound (that he swears is completely destroyed) with one of Brother Blood’s test subjects doing the grunt work. After telling Roy to back off the bizarre deaths that he knows are being caused by the super-serum’s failures, Ollie traces Blood’s henchman to a storage facility, and promptly gets left for dead. Good thing Felicity has been making cute with visiting forensic guy Barry Allen, because she has him abducted to help a dying Ollie. How does that turn out?

ARROW Season 2×08, “The Scientist” recap

Welcome back, Arrow-heads!  What you should know before we start: in the island flashbacks, Ollie wants to find that super serum stuff to save Slade’s life.  In the present, Moira has been found not guilty of conspiring with the dead Malcolm Merlyn, who we find out after the verdict, is not dead at all.  Besides helping keep Moira out of the gas chamber, Malcolm has something else to discuss with Moira, like their lovespawn Thea!  So, let’s get down to it… Continue reading

Giving Thanks

28 Nov

Today in the United States is a day set aside as a day to give thanks and be with family and friends. As I firmly believe you should be thankful everyday, I prefer to take Thanksgiving as a time spent with family. However, I wanted to take a few minutes to make a list of some of the many things I am thankful for-

ARROW Season 2×07, “State vs. Queen” recap

22 Nov

arrow-00002

Welcome back to the party, Arrow-heads!  A quick recap of things to know: Moira is about to go to trial for her involvement in the destruction in the Glades, Laurel assigns herself to the prosecution to “help Moira” (to the gas chamber if her pill popping catches up with her decision making), and Count Vertigo from season one is still in prison, and probably still quite insane.  So, let’s jump right in… Continue reading

ARROW Season 2×06, “Keep Your Enemies Closer” recap

14 Nov

arrow-00002

Welcome back, Arrow-heads!  A little catch up on things pertinent to this episode: Diggle is still looking for Deadshot, and has asked for the help of his government agent friend Lyla to help find him.  Roy has sworn off going out to fight crime on his own for Thea, but is still helping Ollie gather intel on his quest to fight crime.  And in those island flashbacks, Ollie’s been reunited with Sara Lance, but that reunion involves her kicking him in the face.  So, let’s see what’s going on… Continue reading

ARROW Season 2×05, “League of Assassins” recap

8 Nov

arrow-00002

Welcome back, Arrow-heads!  So, in case you missed last episode (and really, reading this recap before doing that is on you), Sara, Laurel’s sister who supposedly died five odd years ago is very much alive, and fighting crime in Starling City!  This would be shocking news for us and for Oliver, except for that little thing he neglected to mention about Sara being on the island and thinking after a fatal encounter, she was for reals dead.  She doesn’t want to reveal herself to her family, but with Laurel turning into a pill popper and that pesky mystery league of killers wanting to bring her back into their club, its good money that plan probably won’t last.  So, let’s get into it… Continue reading

ARROW Season 2×04, “Crucible” recap

31 Oct

arrow-00002

Welcome back, Arrow-heads!  So, last time we were in Starling City, Laurel had survived an attack from Hentai-man, I mean, the Dollmaker and Ollie got saved from Laurel by that mystery blonde vigilante.  Plus, the show has a legit guy with the last name of Blood running around.  And in our flashbacks, Slade is on fire…as in his face and hands are burning, while past Ollie gets locked up on what seems to be a gritty reimagining of The Love Boat.  Let’s see if the Isaac on this ship has some wonderful cocktails to serve us while I recap this episode, huh?
