Nobodies comparing budgets, I haven't heard 1 nay-sayer mention that word

...No, that deserves a double



For the "disappointed" its likely storyline, script, acting performance. Personally I expected and hoped for more from the man who brought us Firefly, Buffy and even Avengers Assemble. This is merely another TV show with nothing in particular to mark it out from the millions of other TV shows. I'm saddened.

Oh...apparently it does get better...in episode 4:

We'll see.

It's growing on me and that review is very good at explaining why

[MiniMan64]

I'm still enjoying it.

[bexVN]

We are impatient aren't we!! JW knows what he is doing, I'm confident that it will grow as we get to know the characters. I'm enjoying it already but look forward to seeing the show develop esp in depth.

The best shows often take a while but then sustain popularity especially because of good character development.

Just caught up with this. Pretty good one this week, characters starting to develop (be less annoying) and threading a few ongoing plot threads in there as well.
They have got me for another week.

That episode was pretty good.

[Beefmeister]

Yep, the last episode (4) was brilliant.

This really is becoming more like a cross between Alias and Heroes, which is all good in my eyes.

[Welshname]

I'm enjoying this more and more as the season progresses.

I think within a few more weeks it will be really good. I'm still going to continue watching it in the hope Skye gets naked.

In what is essentially a kiddies pre-watershed program?

isn't that what internet search engines are for?

[richtea78]

Watching Arrow makes me realise how good this could have been.

Arrow is DC though so the opposition I think?

It read like you were - apologies!

Buffy & Firefly were slow starters, give it a a 1/2 season at least.

Correct. New series of Arrow on the way and it's getting a Flash spin off as well. Shame they can't find a way to tie it in with the DC movies because I quite enjoyed.

That's one thing that Marvel have got right, control everything and you got a decent coherent universe. Just Spider-Man that got away.

[richtea78]

First 2 episodes of Arrow were on Sky tonight.

Just watched the most recent episode.

Underwear fully counts.

Best episode yet and not just because of the underwear scene. I like the fact one subplot was partially revealed and another became far more interesting.

[Welshname]

I have to agree. It's really starting to get into it's stride now.

Does anyone know how many episodes are due for each series? I hope it's closer to 20 because I think it will just continue to get stronger and stronger.

[richtea78]

It got picked up for 22 episodes

The annoying thing will be the mid season break
