    Mediocre TV - Which is fine for the CW but not for me. I don't see anything intriguing going forward. I'm done.

    Seth Gabel , never ever play a villain again. Yikes, Batman! Thanks for the laughs tho.
    @Jarrod Mitchell - more like
    Adam West's Batman and Heath Ledger's Joker became - The Count. lmao

    Is there a superhero in Green Arrow lore that Felicity can become? I know Dinah/Laurel is destined to become Black Canary, but Felicity's intelligence, hidden good looks (the glasses, whip me off, shake out that hair!) and her crush on Oliver either mean she's destined to me a sidekick or a bad guy. I can't stand the thought of the latter. Ideas?

    I'm torn. Part of me hopes this show gets canceled cuz it's bad but I'm afraid that'll ruin it for other DC Comics adaptions. I got why certain things get changed in adaptions but that is NOT Oliver Queen. And why the need to ruin Dinah Lance? I hope it gets better but somehow I doubt it. Everybody is VERY easy on the eyes tho LOL

    I did not like the Count - what was that wierd accent? Little over-the-top with the crazy. Maybe if I were acquainted with the comic book stories, I'd get it.

    I'm also getting kinda tired of Thea's brat-to-sweet routine every week. And why does everyone call Thea "Speedy"?

    I agree with other commenters: More Felicity please! She's awesome. She should be all in with ollie & Diggle.

    I'm eager to see how things go now that Ollie knows about his mom's book. I really hope Walter comes back sooner than later.

    I liked the count, much more than the usual characters, all of whom I'm ready to be one and dones. Speaking on one and done, could someone put a bullet through Tommy? He is getting in the way, of the banter, fun and utter nonsense that this type of TV show needs to achieve a true will they won't they story line. A show like this might end up only getting a couple of dozens eps, and can't afford to take too long with any plot device, it's about time, this one steps up to the plate. Maybe the whole thea probabtion thing will get things moving. But a bullet to Tommy's skull would too.

    @Enilamoht, ITA! She's awesome and so are Arnell's abs! I love when he's working out on that bar thing!

    This show is a little bit cheezy but I totally love it. They should have dragged the Vertigo epidemic out for longer. It's like everything is too easy for Oliver.
    The scene with Thea turning down community service was just stupid. She's facing jail time and she's going to refuse help to spite her mom? Yeah right!
    OT: I wish they would've showed Oliver working out on that bar thing. His chest and abs make me drool!

    All shows do product placement!

    I like Oliver in peril - because it usually means Oliver sans shirt!!!

    This continues to be my favorite new show on tv! Well even one of my top favorite shows.
    Seth Gabel was so good at playing the creepy Count! I am sure we have not seen the last of him. We all know Oliver will be okay but there seems to be some pretty crazy side effects from the drug and it is even more lethal in liquid form.
    We always seem to get scenes with Thea being mad and then in the end she either finds out the actual truth or is told something that makes her change her mind and be sweet again.
    I like that this flashback to the island gave insight into one of the things he learned on the island, the whole choke a guy til he seems dead then touch his neck and he wakes up.
    There was about 2 seconds that I thought that Oliver killed that guy but I knew he had a trick up his sleeve.
    I still think there is something off with Felicity.

    Yes more Felicity love her. She knows more than she is letting on. Hope see more of McKenna. Love it when Oliver is shirtless and Diggs too. This will be interesting to see how Oliver became a Captain in the Russian military or is it mob? Show is getting better every week.

  14. Jarrod Mitchell

    I swear that Seth Gabel's portrayal of The Count reminded me that of Heath Ledger's portrayal of The Joker; it was just that amazing!
    As for the episode itself - ASTONISHING! A good episode and probably one of the best I've seen this season. Reasonable screentime for all cast members too - except for Felicity. WHO, I have to agree needs more screentime and definitely a romance with Oliver, however, I predict a Clark-Chloe relationship like the one in Smallville.

    Great episode I loved it. I like that Thea's not going to jail and I like that she'll be working for laurel even more it should be interesting. Oliver taking down the count while still a little high on vertigo was awesome. I don't like detective lance because matter what the hood does to save people lance only sees him as one way and that's a murderer not a hero like everyone else. I wonder what Oliver is going to do with the new information about his mom and having another book. Can't wait till next episode.

  16. Steve

    Ok the Count has been the best villain on the show since Deathstroke, & we only get little screen time of Deathstroke but the scene of him beating up that guy in front of everyone was awesome hope he appears in Sarling city. But if they don't bring the Count back I will be highly pissed plus now that he was injected with so much vertigo he could have a condition on how he needs the vertigo to keep his sense of balance but still use it to fuck up other people.. Good episode probably the only one so far that kept my interest 100%

    There's definitely something up with the new cop. Her "CI" told her where to find The Count's headquarters about the same time the Green Arrow gets there? Oddddd.
    I hate Thea's hair.
    And yes, more Felicity! Her and Oliver. I ship.

  18. Invested In Your Future

    A fucking AWESOME episode.

    Now THAT'S how you do villains, CW.

    Seth Gabel's Count was incredibly psychotic and entertaining and now, thanks to Oliver, he will be EVEN MORE psychotic and creepy next time, which is awesome(also it explains on why Amnell called Count the first Arrow's villain that is of his own making, since Oliver ended up making him even more crazy and dangerous).

    Can't wait till he will be back.

    On other hand, Oliver finally learned about his Mother. Can't wait to see where the List storyline goes...and the island...UGHHHH, this show has SO MANY great storylines.

    Are you kidding ? the count was more campy then Cesar Romero from the 1960's Batman tv shiw

    Vertigo is a terrible street name for a drug. Can we get rid of everyone besides Ollie, Diggle, Felicity, Walter, McKenna, Malcolm, Helena, and The Count? Laurel can stay if she stops being written as an afterthought. The Count was a bit much but was played well and fit nicely.

    I thought Felicity would have figured out the Hood thing before sharing the book with Oliver but whatevs..I appreciated that Oliver tried to initially tossed he playboy Oliver and then quickly apologized and we saw the Oliver that we see with Dig come over him. Stephen Arnell kind of made me want to cry with all the emotions that ran over his face when he was putting together the book's owner seconds before Felicity told him. I am hoping that Oliver brings Felicity and Dig together on the Walter angle because I doubt Dig would keep everything a secret for long when he gets to know Felicity and realize she is perfect for Oliver. Um...I don't trust the new cop...first the whole fact that the cops were showing up when they did and she was too far away to have actually seen Oliver at the drug deal. I am guessing she might be reason the Count isn't worried about the cops. I am guessing the Count will be fine and he will be focused on getting Oliver, not the Hood and we might not see h

    I enjoyed the episode and all, but the product placement is getting a bit out of hand. I legitimately thought that the scene with Laurel and the Surface tablet was a commercial.

  23. Enilamoht

    "Let's get Felicity more airtime!"
    YES the show needs MORE Felicity scenes, desperately.
    Tuned in for Amell's abs, staying for Felicity's specs.
