"Lian Yu" Season Finale Photos
None of the photos credit Manu, so expect a lot of voice over from him in the suit.

Deathstroke is so much shorter

This was a really good setup episode and the next is looking to be bonkers!
Are we going to get 3 or 4 good finales this year, unlike last?

Legends stuck the landing. I've given up hope for The Flash. Supergirl will probably be better than usual, but not amazing. Arrow looks like a win. I'm guessing 2 out of 4.

That Facebook promo:
Two great jokes there. The "Didn't he kill your mother?" and "That seems to be a recurring theme with you." I love when the show doesn't take itself way too seriously.

Looks like it might be a free for all instead of one on one. Would be fantastic.

"Didn't he kill your mother?" *Oliver ponders that statement*
LOL!

Show is really amazing when they just blast us with charismatic actors.

Yeah that promo is bonkers. I'm a fan.

Legends finale was great. Arrow will be great.

Flash is probably gonna suck.

Supergirl will be carried by Superman and Cat Grant so it's harder to notice how much it sucks.

Been away since Season 4 Episode 3........Should I jump back in?

Yep! Honestly just skip rest of S4 and jump straight to S5. It kinda, in a way, starts fresh to where you don't really need to know too much about S3/S4 except for the bigger plot details. Just look up details, or someone here might give you the low down on what happened.

Someone did earlier in this thread actually, not sure which post it was though.

Malcolm, Slade, Chase, Dinah, Black Siren, Wild Dog, Nyssa plus Dolph in the flashbacks.

The only way this episode could have more swag would be if they found a way to bring in Dahrk, Moira, Sara and Anatoly
This episode will out-chart the Legion of Doom on the swag scale

"not interested in a fair fight"

Not kidding, the only way the fight gets any fair is if Chase's side pulls Earth 2 Bruce Wayne =P
 
You guys remember back in Season 2 when people were speculating we'd get a Green Arrow vs. Deathstroke vs. Merlyn fight?

Three seasons later, we ended up getting something even better.

FUCKING

CAST

EVER

This season has been super hot fire and I have loved it. Chase is a fantastic menacing charismatic villain and the set up for the upcoming showdown is a dream come true.

Anyone else think there was something wrong with Merlyn's face in the Bunker, just before Nyssa comes in? Looked like it was cgi for some reason?

I just saw this season's ratings. Man, those are terrible... but I suppose that's what you get when you have back to back terrible seasons.

Or no Olicity. Reason could also be much simpler: heightened digital presence, better Netflix deal. It is costing every CW show 'huge' but it strengthens their appeal for renewal.

I know :( But what I meant was, when he was talking, it looked like his mouth was moving weird, and his voice seemed....off?

It is the things he does to avoid looking older, the botox and the likes, that might give that look.

I'm at ComicCon in Detroit and Barrowman is wearing a dress.

I only post this because I feel like people in this thread are the only ones I can think of on the interwebz who would think that is entertaining. 😁

Doctor Who gaf would love to see pictures too
 
Just caught up on the last episode and can't wait for the finale. Love how everything is coming full circle with Chase leading him back to the island. Also digging the continued trend of Spartacus actors being on CW shows. Now if only Ilithyia could get some shine. She's the only major character I enjoyed who I wish would pop up in something I watch.

Live ratings don't matter as much anymore with streaming everywhere and the show being on netflix the week after the season wraps.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
At the rate the Flash's ratings fell since season one I'm sure it might make it there next season.

The Flash is practically guaranteed to be consistently fractional next year. I'd wager that 0.8 will be the new normal and the crossover will get a 1.3.

This has nothing to do with relative quality either.
