'Arrow' 7×13 Review: Holy Smoaks!

Perhaps the most frustrating thing about Arrow is that is has all the potential in the world only to, usually, waste it. So much so that Arrow has become a watch-later show as I’m always expecting some sort of disappointment.…

‘Arrow’ 7×12 Review: Please Make This Stop

After hearing the unpleasant reviews surrounding Arrow’s 150th episode, I put off watching it as long as possible. Being sick in bed and not wanting to get sicker was certainly part of my motivation, as well. And I’m sorry to…

'Arrow' 7×11 Review: 'Past Sins'

As long as Arrow wants to focus on the past — by bringing in Emiko Queen and reviving the Suicide Squad, sorry “Ghost Initiative” — let’s talk about the past. I remember when I used to look forward to Arrow.…

‘Arrow’ 7×10 Review: 'My Name Is Emiko Queen'

Arrow has been a game-changer in my life that’s introduced me to some fantastic people and amazing opportunities. I remember the times where it felt like weeks would stretch between new episodes of Arrow. Where I could write 3,000-word reviews,…

‘Arrow’ 7×09 Review: Elseworlds, Part 2

No doubt my favorite thing about these annual crossovers are the interactions between all of these DC characters that typically don’t get a chance to interact. There’s such a great camaraderie and it adds some flavor to the episodes. This…

‘Arrow’ 7×07 Review: ‘Slabside Redemption’

There was a ton of hype surrounding Arrow’s seventh episode, which people deemed a work of art. But the only thing I deemed a work of art was Oliver and Felicity’s brief reunion that reawakened the dormant fangirl within! “Slabside…

'Arrow' 7×05 Review: 'The Demon'

Do you guys see that? There in the distance? It looks like a light. Like a light at the end of the tunnel that involves Oliver imprisonment and subsequent separation from his family. We’re almost there. For five episodes where…

‘Arrow’ 7×04 Review: ‘Level Two’

Is the Arrowverse better for its vigilantes? That’s a question that Arrow seems to be exploring this season as we continue to explore this debate between the need for vigilantes and how vigilantes are hurting the system. Vigilantes are vigilantes…

'Arrow' 7×03 Review: Crossing the Line for the Greater Good

The heroes that we’ve met on Arrow — from Oliver Queen to Felicity Smoak-Queen to John Diggle to Roy Harper to Thea Queen to Laurel Lance to Quentin Lance to Dinah Drake to Rene Ramirez to Curtis Holt — they’ve…
