Arrow It's not bad. I've been enjoying it more than Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D but there are problems I do have with the show. I dislike how there's a little disrespect for the source material, specifically when Oliver Queen says the name Green Arrow is "lame". I also dislike how he kills people with very little regard. They do fix it over the course of the 1st season but it still kind of bugged me. It really is rocking the "grim and gritty" aspect which I think is pretty done to death by now, but the overarching story so far has been very interesting and I do like the support characters. It does suffer from the symptoms of being a CW show, but there's enough to like that it kind of balances out. |

Is that from Smallville? I never watched it but I can't think of any other instances where the character appeared in live action. It definitely is a pretty good representation of his comic costume
The amount of beefcake shots Stephen Amell is pretty impressive, even if he is covered in scars. |

Disrespect or not, it is lame. He calls himself Green Arrow and dresses like Robin Hood. That is the height of lame. If it wasn't obvious that the CW had no interest in the actual Green Arrow and just wanted to make their own version of Batman without spending Batman money then I wouldn't have any desire to watch the show.
