yea the island is the best of the show but I don't think there's much more of it they can really show any more which is disappointing.
Would have been awesome if series one was all about the island , how he got there , how he managed to survive , what happened on the island etc and then at the end of season one the escape happened rather than it being a backstory with a few flash backs
Agreed and I'm sure I've mentioned this before in this thread.
You'd have thought a mother would at least recognise the individuals build, then the individuals voice - put two and two together and come up with "Ollie"![]()
You mean season 2? They renewed it for a second season a while back, the show was an instant success.
- Executive producer Marc Guggenheim revealed that Oliver will be making a trip to Blüdhaven but that we won't be seeing Nightwing. He also added that there will be two cities that the show will never venture to. It's safe to assume those two cities are Gotham and Metropolis.
- Tommy Merlyn (Colin Donnell) learning Oliver's secret will have huge ramifications going forward. Unlike Diggle (David Ramsey), Huntress (Jessica DeGouw) and Felicity Smoak (Emilly Betts Rickards) he knew the pre-island Oliver.
- The showrunners/writers revealed that they outline the episodes first and then figure out if and who from DC's roster of characters can be inserted. For example an idea for a bank robbery episode was concocted and developed and only after a certain point of its development was it decided to call the bank robbers the Royal Flush Gang.
- Arrow was confirmed for both WonderCon and San Diego Comic-Con later this year.
- Greg Berlanti shared that they viewed Season One as having 'Three Acts" and the episode 'Dead To Rights' was the end of Act Two.
- There will be another guest star upcoming that will make geek fans happy. The showrunners remained tight-lipped on the identity.
- Malcolm Merlyn (John Barrowman) was referred to as an "Evil Bruce Wayne".
- It took Oliver five years on a deserted island to develop the skills he has so don't expect Roy Harper (Colton Haynes) or Laurel Lance(Katie Cassidy)to suit up anytime soon. However, you will see flashes of who they could eventually become.
- In the last episode it was hinted that Sarah Lance (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) was still alive. It was a big debate as to whether the show would move forward in this direction but Greg Berlanti insisted.
- The frequency of Slade Wilson appearances on the show will depend on Manu Bennett's availability.
Maybe I need to try watching this again, I kinda gave up after about 5 episodes
