Anyone been watching Arrow? To refresh some peoples heres the promo:
So yeah its kind of CW's replacement of Smallville after it finished but its still a good show. I'm a fan of Green Arrow so i do like this show though there are some changes from the comics like for whatever reason Star City is now Starling and they still haven't called him Green Arrow (well ok in one episode he was sort of called it)
So thankfully the series has been renewed for a another season so i dont have to worry about it being cancelled any time soon.
Does anyone else watch the show? What do you think of it and are you fans of Green Arrow do the changes bug you?

Ive got it on my watch list but i havent actually seen a full episode yet, it looks pretty good though and i like that they pulled villains from other heroes stables to fill out arrows lackluster list...im gonna give it a watch over the weekend so i shall get back to you with a better opinion then.

Its well worth a watch by my book, John Barrowman plays a pretty good villain so far ^_^

I have 2 more episodes of Revolution to get through(of the 10 aired before xmas on nbc) then im gonna start on arrow so probably either later today or tmw.
Revolution isnt bad btw, worth a watch if you dont mind a post apocalyptic show that is abit wonky in places.

I dropped Revolution after the first episode; it wasnt that good not that it was bad just wasnt good. Arrow is worth a watch and Riversong from Doctor Who just appeared in it

I'd say give it till episode 10 because the cliffhanger is worth it if only becuase it sorta telegrpahs the most likely outcome for mondays ep(since its back monday in the states), also it gets better as it goes along somewhat.
Ok just finished watching the first 2 episodes and im liking this show alot already especially the nice little tweaks and changes to olivers origin and the way speedy is his pet name for his little sister instead of the name for his robin equivalent(though one of his more recent variations of speedy was female so not a totally fresh twist).
I shall definitely be watching the remaining 15 or so episodes i need to get through to get upto date on the show(which i think is takign a short break again in the us which should help matters).

Currently there have been 17 episodes aired out of 23. Of course to stretch these things out in America the show goes on break from the 3rd of April until the 24th. Its also bringing in other DC heroes like currently The Huntress, of course they wont be bringing Superman and Batman any time soon. However they are thinking of bringing in Nightwing in the future ^_^ Also they just brought in Roy Harper

Ah cool i used him(as red arrow) in a dc universe tabletop campaign a few years back, he was leader of a new Doom Patrol full of street level heroes like manhunter and cassie kane(whom we planned to find a new id for), the game stalled though due to half the players deciding they preferred to play the mmo instead lol. hmm not sure nightwing would be a good idea tbh but no doubt they'll make it work somehow, i also heard a rumour they may use this version of green arrow in the justice league movie which would save them time casting if nothign else

I havent heard that rumor though i would be ok with that it was true. That said though i would of gone for the Smallville version along with of course Superman and now that they've introduced Batman into the season 11 comics of course Batman.
In other Arrow news one of the skins for Green Arrow in Injustice Gods Among Us will be based on and voiced by Stephen Amell.

apparently the digital Arrow comic is worth reading fro extra info they couldnt slot into the show, its written by guggenheim aswell so may even be used as a way to set up new characters and such down the line...also from reports its actually selling better than green arrow on some sites which probably means either Dc will try to sabotage it somehow or they'll soon offer the writers enough cash to write for the regular green arrow comic lol

Nightwing is meant to appear too or so the rumor goes. Before the announcement of the Superman/Batman movie I think producers wanted to get in Batman after Dark Knight Rises finished.
