I'm here now.
I'm happy.
I always loved that moment. Kind of felt like the writers admitting that Roy does his flippy shit too often for no reason.
OP

I have. I'm on about episode 5 of both Arrow S3 and Flash S1.
Really liking Flash so far. The cast is very fun and the Felicity crossover int he last ep was great.
I literally laughed out loud hard when this happened.
I'm here now.
I'm happy.

I wasn't around for the GAF threads but I assume the comparisons between Caitlin and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Simmons have already been made.

Of all the GIFs I made back then this is the only one that still ever gets used and I'm okay with that, kind of surprised though that the original link has survived so long... This is my legacy.

That's amazing. I'm going through the GAF threads as I watch these seasons and wasn't really paying attention to the user names.
But I have to say, it's actually kind of insane how quickly things have changed in just the 5-6 years since these early Arrowverse threads on GAF. People were freely using the word "retard" and there was an obscene amount of sexist posts. Kind of shocking.

About to start the mid-season finales of both Flash S1 and Arrow S3.
The crossover was an absolute blast.

Holy crap, that was brutal.
Exactly what it needed to be. No music at all and just a complete ass-beating.
Yea I remember finding that really hype at the time.
Didn't end up being that fond of the season in the end though. Also didn't help that this was around the time that Daredevil S1 came out, which really made it hard to go back to Arrow lol
OP
OP
I mean, maybe the second half falls apart but I'm still quite enjoying S3. It's not as good as S2 but that feels like a hard accomplishment.
It reminds me of AoS S3 which was still very good but a step down from S2 as it didn't feel as focused.
OP
OP
Maybe an unpopular opinion but I really enjoy Laurel's journey into the Canary. They're not making it easy for her. She got her ass beat in the beginning and I just watched Roy save her ass again.
But it's nice seeing her just want to do the right thing, no matter how stupid and dangerous it is.
(On a negative note, the Hong Kong flashbacks don't feel necessary at all. It reeks of trying to force flashbacks into the show, which I'm sure is an opinion many had of the season.)

Season 3 and 4 have the weakest flashbacks. I think the change of setting helps 3's flashbacks a bit but the actual plot, like you said, feels fairly pointless in the grand scheme of things.

I just find the idea of him getting off the island during this time only to end up back on it (I assume) incredibly silly.
But I'm still enjoying the non-flashback stuff just fine. I'm going along with the old GAF thread at the same time and a few people said stuff like, "This season is a piece of shit," and I'm like, "... What? Really?"
You are also binging the show in an incredibly fast way We all watched it in real time with a week between episodes, and sometimes months before a new episode. Watching it back to back eases off some of the disappointment that can occur from anticipating a plot development to occur and not having anything happen in months.
OP
OP
That's true. I'm sure that's part of it.
But I dunno, I feel like hate for lesser seasons of TV shows sometimes gets overblown. I watched Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. S1 week-to-week and understood its flaws but some would act as if I were watching The Cape or season 2 of Heroes. Haha.
(Legit loving Laurel in that Canary costume as well.)
I hope this isn't considered too spoiler-y but S5 somehow makes this work and it's one of the show's greatest moments IMO.
S3's flashbacks are such a bore. I felt no connection to Oliver's new friends at all. S4's aren't much better but they lay a lot of ground work for S5 that was needed for it to succeed.
OP

Don't say anything else but that gives me something look forward to in regard to the flashbacks.

Caitlin saying she wants to start a tab might be the cutest thing I've ever seen.

I cried.
This might be my favorite scene in the entire series. This is everything that Thea finding out needed to be. What an incredibly satisfying moment.

Oh, hey. This "Out of Time" episode of The Flash seems like a good on---JESUS CHRIST HOW IS THIS NOT A SEASON FINALE WHAT.
So, so good. The last 5 min or so is just amazing superhero content. Loved Cisco and Eobard, Iris and Barry... and of course.
OP
OP
Wasn't it supposed to be until the show got more episodes green lit? I might be wrong on that one though.
If the show was able to achieve sincere moments like this more consistently, I would be way kinder to it.

This lunch scene between Barry and Isis after he went back in time is one of the more uncomfortable things I've watched.

Damn good string of episodes in both shows as they head toward the end of the season.
Ray and Felicity jumping over to the Flash for an episode seems a bit strange in terms of the timeline, given the heavy events of the previous Arrow episode involving Oliver's identity.

Probably the second best episode of the season, still preferred The Slabside Redemption for the fight scene though.

Yeah, there is really no place for the Felicity and Ray episode of The Flash to fit in on the Arrowverse timeline.
Still a fun episode but I wonder where the miscommunication was during the production.

Oh my god, Cisco fanboying over Laurel.

At some point pretty much everybody on the planet knows who everybody is on the CW shows. So don't worry.

If you mean sexist stuff about Laurel, it was definitely a known issue at the time. Think there were ban warnings about certain discussion of her.
Im rewatching Smallville right now and Lois was asked something like "what if he had a reason for keeping a secret" and her response was "that is retarded"
I was like damn, I can't even remember the last time it was used like that on tv.
