Mambo?
Is that a riff on Man+Rambo? It's a horrid, horrid attempt at a hybrid term. HORRID.

No, it means he is a superhero wearing tights and he is going to dance!

Edit: Ah, should have clicked the link, captaindemotion already made that joke.
 
From what Temis posted in the SF/F Development thread...

The Borg Queen is Green Arrow's mommy!

Susanna Thompson (Dragonfly) has landed one of the female leads on the CW pilot Arrow. The Warner Bros TV-produced project, described as a modern retelling of the story of DC Comics character Green Arrow, stars Stephen Amell as the vigilante superhero who fights crime using archery, martial arts and technology under his secret identity as Oliver Queen, a wealthy playboy and billionaire industrialist-turned-outspoken politician in Star City. Thompson will play his mother, Moira Queen.

Interesting. Like the choice. :borg:
 
they are certainly getting alot of buzz out of this pilot, given that this the CW, it should make it a dead cert for a series?

Then again you could have said the same thing about Wonder Woman at NBC.
 
Unless the pilot is awful I think that the CW will greenlight it to series. They've gone on record saying that they're looking for another Smallville/super-hero show and t his sounds like it could be it.
 
^Awfulness won't matter. Whether it's a hit will. So it could be brilliant but a ratings flop and it will be cancelled. It could be awful but a hit and it will get a series.
 
I saw this in the Sci-fi pilots thread. I like Blackthorne, so I'm happy.

Blackthrorne's a good actor. My favorite role of his is still the first one I saw him in...the bad guy in the second half of season three of 24. This looks like a really solid cast. I just cannot see the CW passing on the pilot unless it's so horrible that it brings shame on everyone involved.
