I watched the last episode yesterday. I thought it was pretty good, nothing amazing, but I enjoyed it. I didn't expect the island archer to be one of the bad guys. I was surprised by the set up for The Count & Vertigo. Is his episode next week, or is it later in the season? I enjoyed seeing Ben Browder on another genre show.

Yeah, they're totally moving away from the Robin Hood VS the 1% thing in favour of the generic villain of the week bullshit.
Last weeks villain was in the book and wasnt a 1%. Never had the feeling he was only hunting 1% people.
Probably makes TW/WB executives uncomfortable seeing their own species being hunted. But you are absolutely right. The core of the character has always been his self-righteousness crossing into hypocrisy that he'll fight the Man if everyone is Right and he is Wrong.
Is it just me or does the actress who plays Thea have a lisp? I noticed last week and it seemed even more pronounced in this one. I'm not trying to be mean or anything, it was just something I noticed. As for the episode, I loved it. I thought Seth Gabel's Count was great.
The Count was so good I wish there had been more of him in this episode. Overall another good outing. How long before Ollie figures out the CI is Diggs?
I do not know what happened but my DVR did not record it this week. Its odd its on my list but its says there are problems with viewing that single episode and nothing else!
We the audience have assumed the book was a list of bad 1%ers just like the rich folk in Starling City have assumed the Hood was Robin Hood taking down people because they are rich but neither assumption is true. There is something else going on. We just don't know what it is yet.
Guess I am in the minority as I never thought the book was just filled with 1% but merely with the people who were going to hurt Starling City.
Another good episode. I really liked The Count and Ollie's old cop friend. I hope they both return soon. I also like Ollie's reverse Vulcan neck pinch. I thought it was a bit fortunate that Digg knew how to cure the effects of Vertigo. Ollie's bs stories to computer girl (Felicity?) always make me laugh. "I have a friend who is doing some crazy scheme but I don't trust them so can you analyse this..."
I did have to laugh when Corporate IT has access to a spectrometer. What DOES Queen Industries do anyway?
