I have read online about how bad Arrow is..

I thought the first seasons of Arrow and the Flash were ok but not that great, and it went downhill after that. Stopped watching them both during season 2. Tactically most of their fights don't make sense, and the 'comic bits' are not very funny. I kinda prefer watching shows like Ash vs Evil Dead.

But they're still much better than many other TV shows like The Voice of Country (err... I mean The Voice US).

I had trouble initially getting into the first season of Arrow, but once I powered through an episode or two, it was fine. Season two was good too, but after that, it really started going downhill. Overall, The Flash is a better show, but it along with the others are marred by one major problem: they're a CW show. All of the CW shows seem to suffer from two problems that reek of daytime drama (soap operas): bloated casts and unnecessary/forced drama.

I stopped watching Arrow at some point, and I really hope The Flash gets better, because I wasn't all that enthused by this past season. I think it'll all hinge on how well they handle their heavily modified Flashpoint adaptation. Flashpoint was a story from the comics where The Flash (Barry Allen) went back in time to save his mom. Doing so resulted in a heavily altered future where the world was ravaged by a war between the Atlanteans (Aquaman) and the Amazonians (Wonder Woman), Barry Allen has no powers, Bruce Wayne died in the alley (Thomas is Batman, Martha is The Joker), and Superman is imprisoned. Obviously, they can't do all that as they have to usually scrap for any character rights they can get. (They finally got to use Superman on the Supergirl show instead of saying "my cousin".)

Man....I dont even really know what to say. I am truly baffled that people would watch something as cheesy/bad as this. My wide has been watching this show because her sister watches it and got her watching. The one scene I saw was enough to say it was probably the cheesiest/lamest show I have seen in a long time. The guy had his bow pulled on a scientist and she pushes a button on a remote and a bunch of soldiers rush in with laser sights on Arrow. Then suddenly a blonde woman drops in and throws a bomb. The soldiers drop and all the glass shatters, as soon as they bail out a window the gunfire erupts.


1.Do you watch this show?

2.If so, why??????

Freudian slip?
