Exactly.

I never said everything in this show is realistic. Far from it. It's a superhero show obviously some stuff isn't going to make sense. But they can't make this big deal about how scary and skilled the LoA is with assassins trained in pretty psychopathic ways, if Sara basically not feeling pain anymore and MM's training methods with Thea are any indication, by the pretty much unstoppable RAG and then say a beginner fighter like Laurel or even Roy could take down someone like that in hand to hand combat without help. Oliver is barely a match for the League. So that's pretty glaringly obviously not realistic. And kind of undermines what they done with the League if beginner fighters are suddenly on par with them. I think people not being able to take down opponents when they actually clearly don't have to the skill level to do so is different from someone being able to patch a wound (although Felicity hasn't exactly done anything she would've needed to go to medical school to know how to do anyway) or surviving something that would kill most people. Because it's not a hard realism to achieve-having everyone fight at their actual level. These people don't have superpowers so taking down formidable opponents should be quite difficult nearing impossible on occasion like with the League especially when they are just beginning to train and fight.

So I'm hoping they do a 6 month jump or something around there. Season 3 was really about growing and finding yourself, so it will be interesting to see the show with everyone fully realized with who they want to be.

They've done a time jump between finale and premiere in the two other seasons so I bet they will do one this season too. I think they like putting some time between the events of one season and the next so all the craziness isn't crammed together in one short time period of the characters lives. A time jump would be nice, seems like they are all going to need some time for healing and rest or training in some cases after this crazy season.


Just 3 days until 3x19! And hopefully reassurance that Roy is going to be okay. I can only hope anyway. I feel like we have been waiting for 3x19 to finally air for forever. I guess because it feels like such an important episode with what Roy did in 3x18, what is probably going to happen to Thea, and with that death spoiler looming over it. Glad it's finally almost here so we can stop wondering who that spoiler is about and going crazy over it. And after 3x19 only one week left until 3x20 and all the Olicity awesomeness! Cannot wait for that!

Wow thats kind of mean

Glad to see Caity Lotz back on tv, I enjoyed her on Arrow and I get why they had to move her out to move Laurel in but its nice to see her back even if she isn't Black Canary. I would have liked to have learnt more about how she made it into the League and her relationship with Nyssa so hopefully we will see flash backs of that in the new show.

Ill be interested to see how they tie her return in with Arrow. I hope that will provide some solace and powerful moments for Laurel Lance and Thea.

However I do wonder if maybe she looks like Sara and is Sara but doesn't know she is Sara. As in amenesia or something. It would provide drama for the Arrow characters to be able to see the person they love back in the flesh but her not have memories or knowledge of who they are.

^I'm ready for some answers on this Sara being in the spinoff, that's for sure. And you know as much as her being resurrected somehow would help Thea and obviously be good news for Laurel and Quentin, there is a certain cruelty to bringing her back from the dead again. Her loved ones have grieved her twice now.. Twice they have had their hearts ripped out and had to figure out how to somehow continue on without her. Bringing her back to life means she could die again. They could have to grieve her a third time. Not that I'm saying the writers would kill her on the spinoff but the potential is there because well people die, that's a fact of life. And I don't know how someone emotionally survives grieving the same person 3 times. So like I said a certain cruelty to bringing her back to life. And also how does anyone technically stay permanently dead on the show if they introduce magical resurrection pool that revive dead bodies? I don't understand this at all.

How is it mean? She's died twice, hopefully this time she can stay alive.

I just hope her comeback is revealed to everyone in a timely manner.

Oh I thought you meant third times the charm for her to die. Sorry I read it wrong.

Hasn't Oliver 'known' her to die 3 times? So it's already the fourth time.
