has anybody been watching this fairly new show from America. It is fantastic.
Imagine Batman Begins cross bred with Robin Hood and you have the basic idea. It is based on a comic book character also from DC (same as Batman). Honestly I'm hooked.
This weeks episode with the Black Archer was one of the best

Yep i have been watching every episode.

As far as the action and style of the show i am really enjoying it, pretty basic plots for baddie of the week so nothing too amazing in that department yet i don't think but I'm still also warming myself up to the new actor who plays Oliver Queen/Green Arrow.

In Smallville it was Justin Hartley's Green Arrow that i grew quite fond of.

I am wondering if this new Arrow will do any better with his disguise as he learns more things about how best to perform his role as a hero though and develop some new technologies. Hopefully he'll figure out that he needs something to better mask his voice and also maybe wear an eye piece i mean cripes he give The Huntress one! why the hell can't he wear one? i think it'd be more effective then freaking camo across his eyes! hiding in the shadows and relying on your hood only works for so long.

At least this guy was a bit more developed in terms of disguise! maybe the glasses are a bit cheesy but they sure as hell do a better job than camo! lol that and he had something to scramble his voice so that it sounded deeper.

Then again who am i to talk about disguises there wasn't much to set apart Superman and Clark Kent aside from a swoop of the hair and some prescription glasses, albeit he tried very hard to act like a weak moron as Clark so there's the facade.

I know that Oliver is doing a similar thing with still acting like a rich asshole to throw people off much like Bruce Wayne but he could do a bit better.

I love it! I'm a big DC Comics fan and I must admit, I keep squeeing like a school girl every time I see a villan I know. (Especially that Deathstroke the Terminator mask in the first episode!) Green Arrow is one of my all-time favorite superhero, second to Batman. I like the fact that he doesn't need any super powers like the rest of the justice League, but I'm a little bit disappointed that he doesn't have any gizmos in the arrowheads and that he actually kills people. But all in all I think it's great and I can't wait to watch the next episode!
