shadowkat1. Will give the tv series the past two years credit for one thing - they have fast pacing.
Possibly due to an increasingly distracted and fickle audience who has one too many options.
Arrow is moving at breakneck speed. If this were Smallville, we wouldn't have the confrontation we're about to have next week until at least the second season or third season.
At any rate, last week's episode was quite good. I adore Paul Blackthorn who plays Detective Lance, Laurel Lance's dad. You guys can have Oliver Queen, I want Detective Lance. I actually like this actor better than James Marsters...which is odd I know, but there it is.
Still depressed that the Dresden Files didn't continue and weren't better written and executed. Damn Nick Cage for being a crappy tv producer. Because Blackthorn was perfect for that role.
Also, am quite the Tommy Merlin/Laurel Lance shipper. I do not want her with Oliver or Arrow.
I like her better with Tommy. And I enjoy the friendship dynamic between the three.
And...the plot thread of Moira Queen and Merlin's father (John Barrowman) is getting more and more interesting and convoluted. Both are extremely layered and fairly ambiguous characters - perfect villians/foils for Queen. Although not quite sure they really are villains.
And yay, David Anders made an appearance as yet another nasty sociopath. That guy gets more work. Sebastian Roche and David Anders take turns playing the same types of roles. I think Anders best role to date is on Once Upon a Time, while Roche's was on Supernatural, although I still have a soft spot for the irredeemable Jerry Jacks on GH.
2. Still reading politically incorrect romance novels by Judith McNaught - who wrote a shit-load in the 1980s and 1990s. (Basically about spoiled rich people who fight each other for the perfect orgasm, whoops that should be love.) But I'm getting close to jumping genres again. Possibly to fun mystery novels, we'll see. Picked up Laura Lutz's The Spellman Files at the book store today.
