It's the typical we're going to do this and then when it comes along they change their minds. On Lian Yu, more then one person dies, oh only one person dies and she wasn't even important. Then the Viglinate reveal, they said it was going to be someone we're familiar with, and yet they have a character who we've only seen once in a flashback for a minute and then recast him. And now Black Siren was going to have a backstory and yet their seven episodes in and we're still no closer to anything and they are just trying to make her a heartless killer.

As for Felicity, when someone does things wrong she gets to chastise them, but the moment it's turned around on her, oh nope we're not going to talk about it. I have tried to give Felicity's character a chance but this episode brought back the hypocritical version of Season 4 Felicity.

As of now, I am going to keep watching Arrow to the mid-season finale, but if they don't impress me soon, I may have to stop watching Arrow, and carry on with the other shows. The only time I will watch Arrow will be the crossovers. The fact that the mis-season finale will see Quentin & Black Siren share a couple scenes means that Paul & Katie get to work together and they are great working together but they really need to do something fast because I am losing faith in Arrow. They were never going to redeem Black Siren. That theory isn't going anywhere. She was a villain at the beginning and one of a large body count at that. However i am dissapointed in the lack of a backstory on our threat.
