User Reviews

Hello Emiko

Perhaps no different than most of this season, this week's episode was a mixed bag for me. I'm enjoying the ongoing introduction to Emiko Queen (much more than I am the Nora storyline on Flash) and perhaps a new mystery that goes along with that. But I could care less about anything involving Diaz or the flash forwards at this point. Seriously though, how many times can they bring the Diaz character back into the fold without realizing the fans don't care about him one bit. And the fact that it's Diggle & Lyla's decision to put him in the new version of the Suicide Squad will likely just further any sort of previous tension Dig and Ollie already had. The flash forwards also haven't been favorable, with Rene actually becoming the new Mayor (because we needed that, right?) as Dinah/Zoe further the split between Rene altogether. The idea that Oliver has officially joined the police force is still an appealing one, but execution will be key. Aside from that, it was just another week of Arrow.
