Re: Arrow (1x01 - 2x22)
From The CW I would expect the 14-15 focus, that's why I said 'teenage garbage.' 
But yes, melodrama was present.

Re: Arrow (1x01 - 2x22)
It reminded me The Cape a lot, yet in some way it was more confusing. then again the action/parour scenes were pretty decent.
i mean the story is nothing new and original, but i think i'll give it more chance.

It definitely shows potential... I can't see myself removing it from my watchlist unless something drastic happens.

It pulled over 4mil which is almost double what all the other CW shows get. The only problem I had with the show is his voice is not what I would expect from a voice over. To me the voice over should have been deeper in tone or something it just didn't work for me.

Yeah that was a bit jarring. But overall an excellent start. Most reviewers seemed to notice that.

Re: Arrow (1x01 - 2x22)
Good pilot. The storyline is only OK, but I don't mind, because the characters are interesting and the action scenes are great. Only two things bothered me in the pilot - Quinn manor looks a lot like Luthor manor and how the hell could Oliver still be a good hacker after a 5 year break?

I'd say it is the same manor. You know it's the same because of the X-Men base beneath it.

I liked it, not much to complain about really. Altough i do agree about the voice over, it feels weird somehow

I liked it. Best pilot I've seen in quite a while.

Re: Arrow (1x01 - 2x22)
I ended up re-watching the pilot and the voice over is less weird the second time, but the actors voice just doesn't really lend it's self to it. I hope that it's just a pilot type deal to add a little more back story to the show.

Re: Arrow (1x01 - 2x22)
Main actor looks a bit stiff to me and obviously insanly cut as if he spent 5 years training Rocky 4 style but aside that, it could've been worse I guess.
Good enough to stick with it.

well this is a keeper for me. I liked the pilot and not just because of the body crunches

Re: Arrow (1x01 - 2x22)
This is starting to become my new obsession, I really liked episode two and were the shows going so far. It's safe to say this is my favorite show of the new season...which I know isn't saying much based on the fact I haven't cared for any other new show.
Re: Arrow (1x01 - 2x22)
Like where it's heading.. It's still a bit heavy on the melodrama, but maybe that's a thing with superheros..

Re: Arrow (1x01 - 2x22)
i personally think episode 2 was weaker than 1. because of the family drama crap they put there too much. and i got this sinking feeling that this show might suck. because of the awful resemblance to Batman. but i hope they will pull it off with good story, lots of action and hot babes.

Re: Arrow (1x01 - 2x22)
Second episode was very good, maybe even better than the pilot. Arrow is one of the best new series this season (well, it's a really weak season for new shows, but still...).

Re: Arrow (1x01 - 2x22)
I have to say I thought the flashbacks and voice overs were going to annoy me, but I was pleasantly surprised to find I kind of enjoyed them. The reveal of the archer at the end I'm surprise they went there so soon. The fight scenes were also well done and the demo for the second episode match the first episode so hopefully it mean it will be picked up for a full order.

Second episode was good aswell, there really isnt much to complain about in this show. Personally i like a bit of drama aswell if its interesting and so far it is.

Yeah, second ep kept the momentum going. The writers, crew and cast are all doing a great job. Looks like this one might have legs.

One bad note : Whoever is making his civilian wardrobe (non-Arrow) is a complete moron. (Vest too short, too tight, stuff like that, it's ridiculous).

Re: Arrow (1x01 - 2x22)
ionno about the show... all the actors are fine and the actions great but i'm a bit pissed about having only a 2 minute blip explaining his time on the island. This isn't LOST! I just think the formula is a bit off. Super Hero shows are supposed to wow you and have you going that was cool instead of just leaving you with a WTF?!? at the end of the episode.

Well, if that Green Arrow verse "organization" (and sundry renegades from it) is in play, things could really get interesting.
