So if you're watching live jump in to the chat, hashtag abc-tv arrow on everything social media and let's talk. Now. The first thing we're going to do is start with hashtag who I love to hate. Yes. I'm loving that. Oh, no, no, no laughing. I'm not laughing. I'm fine. I'm scared. That was close. So Chris is brand-new to you. Who is the actor that did such an amazing job as an actor that you hate them so much because they're character is so terrible. So terrible. So terrible. I have mine you guys have yours we do. I'll be a gentle lady Matt you go ahead. I don't have it on you. Okay, I'll go first. Okay go first because I want to give a shout-out to the chat. You guys are amazing. I already saw like three who I am. Days, actually Matt took mine. So I'll start with blob blob said that she had Stephen Amell for not being in this episode. Okay, I think is abs for not making a cameo. I hate him too for not being in the show tonight, but we're talking about maybe that's it, you know spin-off time. Yeah, he's getting out but Matt said mine and well we talked about it earlier. The who I love to hate is the makeup artist for Felicity Smoak. Like Glue yeah, it look like when you're in kindergarten you take the Elmer's glue and they did like this they're like your wrinkle your forehead what's with the glue on and when it dries open your eyes that's exact Euro was and their car hair a little and like made us hydrate. I love Felicity newscaster Bob. I'm here for it. I love it. I really wish that I could they would make people look how they look really like like give her a wig that's like short like she put it in rollers in the night and then like she teeth didn't the morning like that. That she totally was like Mom here in mom jeans. I that would have been amazing, but they didn't I mean because like Dinah looks down. Let's frickin bait like a Crypt Keeper. Yeah, so great looks like yeah. Oh my God, they're just like and like everything else kind of change their voice is like if you notice they're changing the way they Speak a little bit. Yeah, not felicity's you. Like, I'm sorry. I'm just gonna crush. It did a little bit. She was like a little bit more soft spoken. She was against that's true. She is my daughter or whatever. She said she was a little bit more soft snow is still very much Felicity. Yeah, Mom. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Did you come over the are sir? Shall I go God damn it. No, I was talking about Felicity. So yeah you go ahead. Okay, so my hashtag who I love to hate is Renee because I just want to slap some common sense into him like you were a vigilante for how many years of your life and you just have someone like totally pull. One over on you. Wow, and not even just pull one over but like gung ho to the point where I thought maybe he was getting paid off. Yeah. Well a lot of people in the chat agree with you Chris says Rene as well and fantastic says Renee as well. So the chat agrees with you. Does anybody say black star? Because that's who I love to hate summer. Yeah. I'm like, I don't know. It's like, you know, you get upset when your parents when you find out that your you know, your dad drank too much Strawberry Hill and high school. And now you have another sibling like like in a bad way, but this is like you have a brother like your mother was trying to save the city literally like be a hero and you're like wait, I just wanted love and so she redeemed herself by the amazing fight. Yeah, and she had the Best lines of the whole show so don't get me wrong. I love the character but I just was a little bit like come on snap out of it. I was like calm down a little. Yeah. Dr. Phil was here. He'd be like chill right here, but it hurts you brought her up because I do want to talk about her first but in her defense, the only thing she knows is Mom Nyssa and the woods. Yeah. Do you mean like so all she has is her mom, so that's all she's holding onto so as far as throwing a tantrum like she doesn't know anything else. She has not been properly socialized she To screw all y'all so she hasn't been around anything. Of course. She's like me me first. Yeah. Hello and she thinks she's an only child. Yeah. She's never read Lord of the Flies. She didn't know it could be worse right could be waiting. Remember we read lord of flies. You like lucky be an Island right now. I'm like fighting for but that's a whole different show but speaking of thali I really like the whole sister wife thing that we saw again. Yes with the felicity's this. Want to be on the show ever? Yes. Yes using a really great Christmas movie on one of those Hallmark Channel's look it up. I love her. Yeah. Yeah. I hope she wasn't with Lori Loughlin production. It's me. It's a it's my body. And but it's that was so Gago dot Wonder Woman Like with trainers a kid and literally like she comes up and she's like the yeah. I'm an adult. I cleaned out a little bit inside because you know, I'm a sucker for that and I loved it. Yeah, and I just want this all the time because last week we were wondering where like who trained her to be as like Archer and we're like had to be one of the one of those people in the moon. I saw this I was like, yeah, of course it was yeah, but I loved it. Okay. So my fate thinking is like my favorite part of the show, but when they even started the episode and she was like two feet tall and she was doing handstands. You're all so cute. Where did they find this child actor? I love her. She was so cute. Yes. I just squeezed her. Yes and by her she was adorable. Yeah. Yes. Anyway, that's all I just wanted to make sure we touched upon that first because I was like my favorite. I love seeing little girls like you should as a little girl teacher girl had a fight just make did it wasn't just one more time talking to about this before but we thought it was a good episode. Yeah, even though we were all not on board with the whole flash-forward thing, right? I feel like we all kind of appreciated this everything. I think it was Stephen Stars read on Twitter and Stephen was like y'all have dog the flash-forwards, but you're going to eat your words tonight. Okay. You're right. You're right. You're right. You're right. I got you. Okay, okay for those around the podcast we got mad given some I don't know like baby shark hands with his like got you but I will say this I think the in why it was so likable we were talking about this before we went on air is the fact that it follows the exact same format as arrow in the present. Do you know any mean like it's not like giving us all these weird baby clues for like 3 seconds or 30 seconds and you're like, what is that even fit in? Okay. Somebody dies. Okay. Great. Where is this is like thank you for answering some questions of ours, but at the same time it's like watching now instead of Oliver. We have Mia doing all these great things which added more questions. We have more answers right here. That's the choreography with her as an actress, uh, amazing got the fights. I have was watching this and even thought well, this did feel very much like a spin-off episode. Yeah and Stephen Amell even tweeted like you're I think he tweeted last week like y'all are going to love this episode of handing over the reins to her which is super gracious, but it fell either like a spin-off or even thought I was kind of like I would it be I think I almost would be more interested in the flash-forwards like if like episode wanted to season had started Started like what if like the whole season was a Flash Forward in the flashbacks were like present-day like Christy. It would have just been more it took him a while to get here, but I'm a little more interested, but I'm still in like wait. So we've got a daughter in the future a sister in the present. I don't know how all of these are going to yeah into a storyline and then also because I'm a nerd and I've read stuff like comic books right? I'm like, how is this going to work and in crisis on Arts which is going to happen next fall, right and everybody knows probably Oliver everybody feels like Oliver's go and die, right so but maybe not do you think we're going to see all of her in any of the flash-forwards? Nah, I don't know. He's I mean they made it seem like she already done but I mean we're already doing their prediction about that. Mama prediction is yet. Okay huddle pirate Productions agrees with you. He says that the he would agree it for a spin off show that would be awesome, which I agree. I think the other people are already doing that but But before we get too deep diving on there, too, I just want to say I get so excited to read the chat and everybody in here. I love I love you guys and I you ladies are you whatever I don't want to put pronouns. I love you people. So do some shout outs. I've installed a jean girl.

Wow, okay, and you can follow who cares where you can follow me. All right, let's jump in. Okay, wait before we even so no just gave us the best news ever. Okay. So the young Mia was actually James band Ford's daughter. Of course. She is. Of course. I love him even more. Yeah, I guess a couple seasons ago. So check him out. He came on. It was be a sky be super nice guy. He's actually the one that referred. Me to jam, which you go to chew, but that's where I've done a lot of my training to so let's look what we love you. Super cool. Thank you for the news Ivan speaking of me at though before we get into the next topic. I sort of have another hashtag who I love to hang. Okay, and it's so bad. Okay, so I'm just gonna put it out there. Like I would love to be on this show. That would be my Ultimate Dream. So casting directors. Please don't hate me because I love you so much, but I gotta call you out because we've done it before but it just because I had a whole episode of Staring at Zoe. It just really upset me that Zoe is a little white girl in the beginning or maybe she's got some Latina and rutina, but she's she's straight hair Fair complected and now in the future she's curly hair. Yes, like afro-cuban very let Tina beautiful beautiful great actress, but I like is you can't get that what they could have tried a little harder to make them the same well in the show's to swallow has That long but it really is amazing how much more aware people are getting of diversity? Yeah, definitely. So probably they thought let's make it more diverse. Yeah, they're like, oh she looks more like they're like, oh no, her hair was pin straight as a child. Yeah 10 straight and it's like really curly and not like I gotta turn up. It's like a natural. Yeah. Yeah like you could have don't at least or how does train her hair guy? Yeah. Yeah everyone agrees with you. Ivan Soto puddle pirate they're saying yeah, but yeah, yes, it really is. Okay. Alright, let's talk about William just a little bit because I wanted a see ya. Yes. He is. I love his relationship though. I love it like with like black star. Yes. Do you you love me like you care about me. I'm like, they're so cute together. I think they're going to be best friends and I love it. Yes, I do like that. We're seeing this kind of How long and that's all over there? I'm I like that we're seeing this kind of sibling kind of rivalry for them and they both I mean he did too, but I just it's nice to see people that are main parts of the show not taking everything. So seriously, uh-huh, and I think that's something we kind of been missing and are all right, especially now that Curtis is gone, right? Yeah. So I just and what why it's smart why I just realized I'm talking about why it connects with me. So much is because felicity's is Mom. Yeah, like yes, and you can tell he was raised by Felicity, right and you get that right and the Felicity William relationship also reminded me of the echo column echo, echo echo and Felicity relationship when they were together like you're both nerding out of time and I was like that. Oh, yeah. Well, yeah when when Mia says like, oh great. There's two. Yes. She said that I was like reminds me of back in the day. So but it's nice. So too because Mia is very much Oliver and William is very much Felicity. Even though William is not Birth by birth. Yeah her son. They did spend that time together and she's the one that nourished his not nourished him. But like when Oliver was busy being mayor she took the time to help them with homework again. Really? Yeah, I guess nourish his passion for for math or whatever the case may be. It's just nice to see the two of them like that. Yeah. Yeah, that makes sense. Yeah, I thought it was great. I like this. We got to see kind of I thought they did a really good job this episode of obviously, we got to see how much of a badass Mia is what those really truly incredible Barefoot fight scenes half of shoe at one point and then it's back and 30 seconds later. We want to talk about And then I really felt and then kind of started introduce Connor more little bit but and but also to I love that like I thought it was funny that we've always seen so much of Arrow of like it'll be Felicity or Diana or some girl who kind of like sweet-talks the guy into like getting the info and we he was totally like flirting with this guy just to get what and I was like, well, that's something I never thought I'd see on air. Oh, yeah, but it was funny. Yeah, I thought okay, so you said still me Carl words three words. Okay, you said sibling rivalry and I feel like the Rivalry was more so on her and verses on Williams in because he was like cool like yeah, we're gonna get to know each other and I have a sister whereas Mia just like I don't know like every time it seems like every time Felicity had a moment with William or William saw Things From felicity's perspective. Yeah. She's like she was so grumpy the All time. However, though how messed up is it that she walked into her mom's secret lair and there's a screensaver of her and William and his screensaver of I think Oliver. I'm like, where am I mom I can at least be sure to dating photo. That's true. I could see I could see the anger in that but she was she was the whole time just being so grumpy with her mom and not understanding any point that she was just trying to save the world can see the break from her children if you kids not going to school and you're staying around all the time. Sometimes you get sick of your kids. Yeah, my she To go in a room and not see her daughter. It's fine work on her. Don't touch her. Don't come on this show Olivia. I mean I smoke pot this episode like what has happened. We really didn't but I wear are easy. I swear we now nothing is your easy like saying you're not easy. So what's going on? Anyway, they're having their there chatting amongst themselves. Welcome. I loved it and Connor Hawke is hard. Yes, I'm missing one see from he's got a familiar face my dreams Ivan soda. Where's he from? Find out Ivan. My husband is everything. Okay, but did we realize that Connor Hawke was in a relationship with Mia prior to this episode. Is it likely that we're obviously linked and off for it. Yeah. Yeah, I loved every moment of it. Yeah, but I don't think we knew right. Well, I do like Connors moment where he tried to explain what he there was the fighters. Wow. Wow, there was that. Yeah happened. There was the Spider-Man reference. I gotta break. That was great. The I don't read comic books. I know and I was like, that's funny but I loved the speech that he gave her because he had the very mature aspect. And again the maturity probably comes. I'm experiencing life, which she has not that's but him saying, you know, you have to share your parents when their Heroes. Unfortunately, you do have to take a step back. And yes, of course instinctively us as children want all the time with our parents. But if you can see the Grandeur picture and the amazing things that they're doing and what a great person it takes to be able to take on that responsibility. Then you can be a little bit more understanding. Yeah, and he is also significantly older than her, you know, that's probably why his wisdom he has more wisdom if you he looks he doesn't well, he was like a teenager. Major but almost a teenager by the time when she was born Connor Hawke Oh, I thought you're talking. I'm sorry. I thought you talking about William. No. No, but you do bring up a good point that William does not look that much older exactly that again Felicity had glue on her face. So I mean, oh, yeah, because whoa, yeah because William probably is about was like in Middle School. Okay. Well, hold on somebody do math because I'm not going to literally the year is 2040, right so we know will MS-13. Yeah, right - so maybe 14 13 right 13. Let's just say well you missed 13. So he's thirteen fourteen 2019 someone do math. But y'all tell us in the chat like how William should be? Yeah, and because I don't want to bring up my bed. Not a good host to just bring up my phone and stuff, but we should talk about Connor Hawke also, where is JJ? That's what I said. Well first I was like, where's the daughter and they're like remember it's not the dog. Ah towards the Sun but where is JJ that actually is going to be my prediction. I think he's sorry. You think I think we're going to see JJ. You think I think my friend to be a villain? I think we're going to which was very much parallel John diggle's relationship with his brother. If we don't remember from season 3 melee melee in the chat says, I think Barry and Nora may have EFT with diggle's kids situation. So maybe it's another Berry darn that guy again. It would be for the third time second time now. I don't think that'll hey. Well he's adopted. Well, we know that Connor Hawke is adopted. So I feel like something happened to JJ prior for diggle and Lyla to want to adopt unless they're like, hey, let's expand our family. This dude's in jail his poor kid, maybe Connors father was actually Giggles brother may be found that again. It's he's the tiger the Bronze Tiger Center because he went into the gym. I love the Bronze Tiger. Oh, this is what we talked about last week. Oh that makes so much more sense. Now wish I I've been on the show. I was like who the hell are these people? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Remember we saw him come into the jail. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Anyway, we have we have ages. Yay. So William is in his early 30s and me I would be 21. Thank you. Black magic. Yeah. Oh, I think she looks like 1920 and he looks like he could be in his early 30s. Do you think yeah, I thought he looked like a baby. No, how old is that actors? Some of these? I thought he was like mid-twenties is what I I think the most I'm alone really quick. I do want to talk about Roy not be he was like a huge topic of this episode, but it was just nice to see a little bit more of him and they talked about bringing him into the present coming in upcoming episodes not to get into particular territory, but I'm just excited to see more of that particular actor. Yeah. I do I like him his Instagrams thirsty, but I still would watch it. So thirsty it's okay. So he's really good looking dude. Like we're gonna see some peas but he is out of everyone they did the best job of Aging him. Yeah. Yeah. It's kind of like something it's gonna make these are not me. It's like either mangled or glue and then it's like Roy and I like kind of okay. Wait, okay with Roy all they did was they added some paint into his hair to make him great like he's not wearing a wig so I'm really confused. Why does it rain? Have the to pay and why didn't they just like maybe they did try his hair. So thick know he's got a buzz to head his that's why you know what it would have been amazing. Although they have to go back forth. But that's y'all just said that exactly yes a little chat said Roy went off on that cop. Why did he do that? Remember you like beating Q? Thank you anger management issues much. It was Ivan. Hi. I don't know. I don't know why he beat him. I don't. ain't there I thought they were the one thing that didn't confuse me, but I thought Okay, we're getting a clear picture of like where like these like young arrows are going off. It's like Young Avengers using that term or Teen Titans, whatever you want to call them but we don't kind of know like we don't know fully what's going on with all the adults. I feel like as far as like their motives like I agree Dinah's the only one where I feel like, okay, we get her. She liked the character of Dinah now makes sense with the police like I want to renewed my name. Mike it actually makes sense. Where where she is now, where's Felicity were like what the heck Renee? I don't know. He's all over the place. I am so really quick though. I want to say I'm so mad at him. I know he did it as a cover but his speech about yeah, you know Dead or Alive these three year on the run and blah blah blah knows like really dead or alive. Please be alive and he could've been like two million. Yeah, that'd be the way it was a speech necessary. Four dollars and Alive, please. Yeah. Yeah, then he would have they would have killed him who they would have said you you clearly are not on the right. Lydia is easy in a bad light. No, but yeah, no, I yeah, yeah, I agree. I mean it's just so weird because we're Nae is so like the balloon July Auntie's are like the hope of Star City. And so we need a not even know why he's it made such a reverse on that right? Because he was always the one like fighting to be that person like when everyone else is ready to give up. He's like no like remember who you are and then his reason for coming back he can't even say he just kind of walked back in he was like you were right. Yeah you ride. I gonna do it tonight. All right wrong again shit Mad Dog don't know he was so smart. Yeah, it just literally like I thought really there wasn't like a big thing of like him like, you know having to say something, you know, like nothing nothing before we continue one of the ways we keep all these shows for you free.

Welcome. Welcome welcome. Yeah, we just had a Jerk It's where I'm high. I'm so drunk right now on love for y'all. Okay. Okay now I've been 11 years. Okay. All right. Well, I do like we covered by for the most part everything. It was a very gay DD way to do it over here over there. But yeah, I think but we did I mean everything else in the chat. We think we got a man at the end. Yeah. The nice girls like finale of her. Yeah them getting the little Rubik's Cube thing. Yeah, that means great. Yes think that the theme panel shouldn't have shoes and she did have to choose but the fact that it's kind of in the dark he didn't see it was really really yeah, I'm assuming James Beard waiting for yeah. Yeah. Yeah so great episode, but then we see the preview next week and I'm like I'm supposed to point out sky, we gotta go back to this and the sister and get it up. And so I'm yeah, I'm kind of digging the flash-forwards and I kind of wish we could stay in them. I don't never thought I would say and my just like kind of Stephen Amell. Yes to the flash point. I kind of enjoy and then call it a day. Hello. I kind of feel like dude. No, you're like that's the case. I'd be like get rid of her name. Sorry. Well, I Grenades come I think Renee's look we all we've already know they're closing out the season next year that's 10 episodes. They've got to fit that in with like Infinite Crisis, but it doesn't start dying, right but this is already been written. Like we only have a like what handful more of episodes before the season finale. So it's not like they're going to go back and be like, hold on guys. Let's rewrite it because at this point they're probably rapping on shooting if not have wrapped. Yeah, so did they dropped? Yeah, but soon okay, like in a week or two, okay. Okay, so they could change some stuff. Maybe. Yeah, maybe I don't feel like I feel like some people going to die than give this season. Yeah, but for sure, maybe that's because next season. Yeah. Well, why don't we get into archers Ali since we're starting to talk about the future. Okay. Oh, yeah, that's me. Wait a second. So yeah, it's just a little quick bit about how the first comic when we saw. Narrow, the first time was in more fun Comics number 73 in November of 1941. Wow. So this is when we first saw the Green Arrow and then Arrow the TV show premiered in October of 2012. And this is the first time we saw arrow on TV. So, I don't know it was just like a fun little comparison of the first time you saw both of them and they both Premiere in the winter. So it seems like they like to be quite the fall October. They like to be cold. Awesome. So let's get into it. Let's get into the news and gossip Shelly. No, I don't wanna be probably follow my goodness. It was Winter. We're good. We're good. There's a half-naked man on TV. Oh, I'm here. Okay, so, let me see. Gentlemen, those of you who are wrestling fans. You know who this is with the same time if he follows Stephen Amell, I'm sure you heard about the recent controversy that there was a little bit of a Twitter feud between David Bautista who is turned an actor and I Stephen Amell, he's Drax conqueror Guardians City met him a little while ago gave him nothing but praise so he was really great really gracious eccentric cetera. So I think he probably would have been a little off-put by this one. I would have been too. But anyway, so basically Stephen Amell tweeted did that he just found wait is this one just landed and found out about at Dave Batista and Triple H really pumped for the matter. Also don't want to see celebrity angle detract from the awesome wrestling card. Well Dave took that as a blow to him and he said considering that celebrity could actually F someone up and that celebrity is a former six time heavyweight champ and that celebrity is here because he loves it. Maybe it just adds to the card maybe and He was like, whoa. Hey, I went out of my way to introduce myself to you in Atlanta at a comic convention. So I could tell you that I'm a big fan of yours and I am you couldn't have been more pleasant. My tweet was meant to poke fun at me clearly wasn't funny. Please. Don't kill me. Yeah, I mean, I think Dave needs to not take so much HG. Oh, yeah. Why don't we just calm down in trouble on Twitter those right? Well, it is Mel is blunt. But in that case, I think Stephen was fire. Calm down. Okay. Yes. Okay. So this is just a fun. Picture of on David Ramses Twitter that I picked up and I think I just did just because I was like, oh it's no I think I just like the fact that Roy was in there. There's probably a better reason for that. But I think he directed that episode right to I think in that way if he's been directing more and more. Yes. Okay. So going into this next one.

Not only was Alikona freaking out about the great fight scenes, Matt was drooling over Conner, and Olivia...well...you just have to see what Olivia said. It’s Arrow in 2040, and we are here for it and hoping for a spin off! ABOUT ARROW: Arrow is an American television series developed by writer/producers Greg Berlanti, Marc Guggenheim, and Andrew Kreisberg. It is based on the DC Comics character Green Arrow, a costumed crime-fighter who was created by Mort Weisinger and George Papp. It premiered in North America on The CW on October 10, 2012, with international broadcasting taking place in late 2012. The series follows billionaire playboy Oliver Queen, portrayed by Stephen Amell, who, after five years of being stranded on a hostile island, returns home to fight crime and corruption as a secret vigilante whose weapon of choice is a bow and arrow. Unlike in the comic books, Oliver does not go by the alias "Green Arrow" in the television series. Arrow also features appearances by other DC Comics characters. The series takes a realistic look at the Green Arrow character, as well as other characters from the DC Comics universe. Although Oliver Queen/Green Arrow had been featured in the television series Smallville from 2006 to 2011, the producers decided to start clean and find a new actor (Amell) to portray the character. Arrow focuses on the humanity of Oliver Queen, and how his time on a presumably deserted island affected him. The creative team chose to illustrate that in the series by crafting flashback scenes to the island for almost every episode. The series is primarily filmed in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Arrow has received generally positive reviews from critics, and was the highest rated new series on the CW in past five years up to its release. The series averaged approximately 3.68 million viewers over the course of the first season, and has garnered multiple award nominations and three wins. To assist in promotion, a preview comic book was released before the television series began, while webisodes featuring a product tie-in with Bose were developed for the second season. The first season is available on DVD and Blu-ray in regions 1, 2 and 4 and a soundtrack of it also been released. The second season of Arrow premiered on October 9, 2013, and is available on DVD and Blu-ray in regions 1, 2 and 4 and two versions of a soundtrack of it also been released. On February 13, 2014, The CW renewed the series for a third season, which premiered on October 8, 2014. A spin-off series set in the same universe, titled The Flash, began airing on the CW on October 7, 2014.
