Tonight’s Gonna Be A Jailbreak: a PRISON BREAK catch-up

Stewart here…

So with the return of PRISON BREAK for a nine episode run this month, it seemed like a good time to explore where this show has been and where it may go from its four season run. I got interested in the show around its first season, being a fan of shows like 24, which were ambitious for network TV. And this had a interesting premise: a show centered around a prison escape, that would cap off its season with said escape. The big question, like say the setup of 24, was simply: how the hell could you pull this off? Continue reading →

ARROW Season 5×18, “Disbanded” recap

30 Mar

Welcome back, Arrowheads! Previously, Ollie found himself prisoner of Adrian Chase/Prometheus, and got a lesson as to what kind of man he is, specifically a guy who probably enjoys murdering bad guys. This educational experience really messed with Ollie’s head, so much so that when he was let go by Adrian, he immediately went back to Arrow HQ to tell the Team he’s shutting down the operation. Sure, Ollie has had his little periods of wanting to pack this Green Arrow thing up, but this ordeal seems to have snapped ol’ Oliver Queen. What does this mean for taking down Adrian?

ARROW Season 5×17, “Kapiushon” recap

23 Mar

Welcome back, Arrowheads! Oliver Queen finally knows his nemesis this season, Prometheus, is his District Attorney, Adrian Chase! Considering he’s turned his mentor (Talia al Ghul) and a recruit into Team Arrow (Evelyn Sharp) against Ollie, it only makes sense that sooner or later the stakes would be raised. After killing his own wife, Adrian takes Ollie hostage, with plans to break the man. Can the rest of Team Arrow get to their leader in time? More importantly, what is Adrian’s scheme in not killing Ollie? Continue reading →

ARROW Season 5×16, “Checkmate” recap

16 Mar

Welcome back, Arrowheads! Oliver and company had their fill of bad guy Prometheus, and so far, have no clue who this guy is. What they don’t know is our Big Bad for the season is Star City’s own District Attorney, Adrian Chase! This helpful yet mildly unstable public servant has a beef with Ollie, and may have another connection to Ollie’s past: being trained by the woman who helped him become the Hood, Talia Al Ghul! Meantime, Felicity is getting in deeper with the computer hacking group HELIX, and Ollie’s current girlfriend, Susan, may have just gotten herself in trouble with Adrian. Let’s see how Ollie reacts to discovering his new buddy is his new bad guy… Continue reading →

ARROW Season 5×15, “Fighting Fire With Fire” recap

2 Mar

Welcome back, Arrowheads! So we’ve had this whole Prometheus stuff hanging over this season, and now, it looks like Prometheus just launched another wave of pain against Oliver Queen. Besides leaking that hidden autopsy report on Billy to the police, our baddie also leaked it to the press, which could lead to the end of Ollie’s term as mayor of Star City! Also, Thea’s starting to remind Ollie of Mama Queen (and not in the best way, since Thea pretty much destroyed Susan’s career) and Felicity is really liking all that info she got from the mysterious Helix. And with that crazy Vigilante guy running around, things can only get worse. Continue reading →

ARROW Season 5×14, “The Sin-Eater” recap

23 Feb

Welcome back, Arrowheads! There’s not much to recap from last week’s “let’s talk about gun control” special episode, besides Thea’s back in town. But we still got the Prometheus problem to worry about, and our Team thinks they found his in-hiding mom. Then you got that whole thing with Ollie and Adrian hiding the details of Billy’s murder from the Anti Crime Unit, because its hard to explain why the Green Arrow accidentally killed a cop (but read ahead for that to actually happen). And even with that, there’s trouble brewing with Ollie’s new reporter girlfriend, Susan, finally piecing together he’s the Green Arrow. But before we get to all of that… Continue reading →

ARROW Season 5×13, “Spectre of the Gun” recap

16 Feb

Welcome back, Arrowheads! And welcome to what we call “a Very Special Episode of Arrow” this week. So if you were expecting more on Prometheus, well we get a little bit there, and if you were expecting more flashbacks with Talia al Ghul, you are out of luck. So lets just get into this issue-centric episode… Continue reading →

DC TV Recap Round-up Issue 2: “Time To Get Catty!”

13 Feb

Stewart here…

Welcome back to another DC TV Round-Up! This time around, I thought we should change things up a bit and give Arrow a break from this column (its not like we don’t cover that show its own here already), which leaves a hole to check out some of the other non-CW related shows that are DC related. So besides the regular talk about The Flash, Supergirl, and Legends of Tomorrow, this week we’ll take a look at the premiere of the not so serious NBC workplace/superhero related comedy Powerless. So let’s start there… Continue reading →

ARROW Season 5×12, “Bratva” recap

9 Feb

Welcome back, Arrowheads! When we last left our dear old John Diggle, he had just managed to get out of jail after being framed for treason by a corrupt Army general. A lot of that has to do with evidence given to Felicity by a super secret hacker cabal known as Helix, which also had a lot of other dirty dark secrets. Add to that the discovery of a new Black Canary fill-in with ex-cop Dinah Drake, and it looks like its time for Team Arrow to get back to normal, right? Well, let’s get to that in a second… Continue reading →
