Anyone watching this? Based on the first three episodes, it's pretty damn good.

I've heard it's pretty much Green Arrow Begins. Not that it's a slam, mind, but I'm usually bored by archer characters.

Think...Mike Grell Green Arrow. Make it a little more...pretty and you have Arrow.

I have liked what I have seen so far.

I've been watching it too. I like it a lot.

Spoiler:
I think I need to rewatch some of the episodes though, did I miss something? What was with the warehouse and the boat? That was the boat he and his dad were on that sank, right?

First four eps are up on Hulu.

The dialogue is cheesy, and the acting isn't always the best, but on the whole, we're enjoying it.

My wife is having a lot of trouble enjoying Arrow based on how much she hates the stereotypically shrill love interest and his "you don't understand how hard your time on the island was for ME" super pampered brat sister...

If you think Dinah Laurel Lance is "shrill" now, wait until she gets going.

Yeah. Deadshot, Deathstroke both so far.
Next week is the Royal Flush Gang.


I also liked Dinah Laurel Lance's reference to fishnet stockings this week.

I wasn't all that impressed by this one. No surprises, and the dialog/acting were a little worse than usual.

For some reason, I was kind of expecting Arrow to be a spin-off from Archer

Bought Season 1, trying to catch up. Generally pleased, but I'm an easy mark.

We started Season 2. Happy that a certain character has shown up.

Unhappy that so far, that certain character does NOT have the same alter ego as in the comics.
