    I'm not ok with this season. Diaz is just a criminal and the show is devolving into a typical techy crime/spy/terrorist plot, no different from many others. It's lost why it is about Green Arrow and not the soap opera shower scenes of Ollie. It could be a slew of other folks in the same position.

    The tactics used by the good guys are particulary idiotic to keep Diaz around. Attack a major installation - have force in numbers and in depth waiting for him. Too much PIS.

    Ollie in prison, don't care.

    Superhero shows that lose focus on the superhero aspect, blah. Rather read much better 'real world' thrillers.

    `What's the point of this future storyline? They have enough going on without it. And if it is real, Star City is doomed so nothing they do matters. Will there be a time jump for the whole show this season? It seems unnecessary.
    There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!

    I hope it leads to some kind of time-travel shenanigans. Otherwise, why bother watching if everything Team Arrow does in the present makes no difference?

    I really hope Oliver kills that doctor.

    All hail Lord Beebo!

    But, seriously. No mention of Norra yet or anything? Because its clear from this future stuff, Star City went to hell about the time Norra ran into the past.

    Anyone else getting serious New Gods vibes from this Doctor interrogating Ollie?

    It feels like 5 minutes away from having the Doctor ask Ollie to praise Darkseid and surrender his will to others.

    That and the rubiks cube with William screamed Mother Box to me (also Final Crisis).

    From what I could piece together the people in the Glades took over and built a wall around it. The vigilantes are fighting against the Glades tyranny. Future Zoey said that Wild Dog wouldn't be caught dead in Star City makes me wonder with the Glades separation it doesn't consider itself apart of the overall city anymore.

    Seems the arson plot in the Glades (now timeline) leads to the Glades being rebuilt as a haven for the wealthy. They then build a wall to keep the rest of Star City out (future timeline) which falls into a wasteland.
    Now I would think a big infrastructure program combined with tax intensives for businesses would be much more effective in helping Star City than "Vigilantes", but then Star City never functioned like it was in America.

    I noticed a scar on future Dinah's neck. So it looks like in the future Dinah has had throat surgery. I assume someone cured her of her Canary Cry, probably not by her choice. Has this been mentioned anywhere?

    Her scar didn't look surgical to me.

    Again to not be a fan, I have little use for the take over a city line that is common in DC stories. State and Federal authorities (unless totally corrupt and in on it, or incompetent) would move against the usual gang that takes over a city. Hard to suspend disbelief on this part of the story.

    Also, the gangs always take over a gun control city. Try to take over Dallas with the usual gang we see in the stories and you wouldn't last a minute. In fact, even the large metro areas in the East would be hellish to control by an outside 'gang'.

    So basically, Punisher would've wrapped the whole thing up in a day or two?

    Maybe its kind of like when he was lost and became a good little soldier a few years back, needing the structure?

    Anyone else think the new GA might be William from the future? Trying to right what once when wrong... .
