Tonight was the big backdoor pilot for #Arrow's spinoff, Green Arrow and the Canaries. We discuss the episode and what worked versus what didn't work so well. Also: Stephen's newest podcast is discussed We're so close to the end, folks!
So, *that* happened. We know it's hard to see it (and even harder to understand what the frick is going on half the time) but we did expect this, right? This is what we think it all means, why it's okay and how our ship will still get a happy ending*. (*happiness is in the eye of the beholder, obvs)
Is #Arrow back yet? No? Okay, then we're gonna talk about Star Wars some more. We're joined by Jenn from Just About Write for a lively discussion of what makes the Mandalorian so good, what is so disappointing about Rise of Skywalker and what is UP with the British Monarchy??
It's post-Christmas and no one knows what day it is but here we are with a podcast. We discuss Rise of Skywalker (spoiler warning!) and also a little Arrow fandom nonsense. It's mostly just us being us for a good hour and a half. Happy Holidays!
We're all here together, shipping this beautiful couple on this amazing (and frustrating) show. We are family, in a way. And sometimes family disagrees. But we can still try some kindness and respect, right? We discuss some fandom drama and our thoughts on it.
We're a little underwhelmed with #CrisisonInfiniteEarths, if we're being honest. Which makes sense when you understand that first and foremost we are #Arrow🏹 and Oliver Queen fans! All others need not apply! We break it down and yeah, we rant a bit. It's our way.
So... that happened. It was a tad bit earlier than we expected but remember... we did expect this! And now we're starting to get ideas of how this might be fixed. We discuss that and work through our feels. It'll be okay, fam, we're in this together!
The Olicity fandom is eating well these days and we're here to discuss it all (and maybe diffuse some of the pre-Crisis tension out there!). The show may be ending, but we have plenty to rejoice about... at least until next week. We also ask a bunch of listener questions and do a little ranting. #onbrand
Another emotional week on #Arrow as Oliver helps his friends and family come to terms with his impending death and we get all up in our feels about the whole thing. Again. This will probably be the norm from here. Crisis, here we come!
We don't have the greatest of news for Arrow fans this week but then... if you've been listening to us, its no different than we've been saying for the last year. Still, we walk through the why's of what's going to happen to Oliver Queen in this year's crossover. And why its not the end of the world (or him!).
We are back after the week's hiatus to talk about the latest Arrow ep and what worked (family dynamics!) and what didn't (Laurel!) and how there's a glimmer of hope for a brighter future for our favorite heroes. You must tune in to hear this one.
What an emotional episode Arrow gave us with 8x04 and we are here to break it down and discuss our most favorite bits (and there's a little ranting because, come on, it's US) and mostly, we thought it was a great episode (though it might have been better had they included more Felicity into it, just sayin').
Today was a GREAT news day in the Arrow fandom and we're here to document and revel in it. We discuss the return of the infamous Emily Bett Rickards and also answer some questions from listeners and basically just have a lot of fun being happy about Arrow again!
We are joined again by Maddie as we return after losing last week's podcast to technical difficulties. It's a short episode but we have some great developments to discuss. Basically? Season 8 is fanfiction, friends. We're living the dream!
The last season of Arrow is here and we (along with our good friend Maddie) discuss what happened and what we think about what's happening. All in all, those who watched it think it was a solid episode but Calli is still holding firm on her decision not to watch. 😉
The title says it all. As passionate Arrow fans, nothing annoys us more than the red condom wearing jerk who gets away with everything while being the cause of some pretty gnarly events on our own show. This episode is cathartic, where we shout out our frustrations into the void... if you are a fan of Barry Allen, maybe skip this one? If you feel like we do, by all means, listen on!
We're back! And we swear our return has nothing to do with the unprecedented amount of Arrow news that hit the internet, TOTAL coincidence. But we discuss the latest news before diving into a SUPER fun topic: our favorite songs for #Olicity!
It's been a hot minute, but we're back! We're talking about some of the buzz about season 8 so far and our thoughts on what has been said and what we think will happen and why the ending we see coming makes perfect sense for Arrow.
Another year, another SDCC in the can. Despite not attending themselves, Jen and Calli still have some opinions on the goings on, particularly as pertains to Arrow, Olicity and the flashforward crew. What can we expect from season 8? And also, what the HECK did they do to Veronica Mars? Again, the girls have some opinions on how some showrunners view shipping. It's a lively episode!
The ladies (plus Maddie!) are back after a longer-than-anticipated break and they have a lot to talk about! Arrow news, Bachelorette drama and how Stranger Things season 3 was the best season yet.
After several weeks and quite a few technical malfunctions, the ladies (plus Maddie!) return with a new podcast! And though this particular episode had to be cut a little short (MORE technical problems, ugh!), we had a great time talking about Arrowverse cast shenanigans, more Lauriver shade, some tv show recommendations and MORE. So give us a listen and join in the fun.
And so endeth our watch... Game of Thrones aired their series finale tonight and we had some thoughts about the events therein. We also rant and rave about a few other things because if there's one thing we're allergic to it's staying on topic. But mostly, we're #TeamDrogon.
Arrow ended their seventh season with what could very well have been a series finale. We discuss the end and how satisfying we found it (and why we found it satisfying!) and we also rant a bit about Game of Thrones which is considerably LESS satisfying right now. And Calli makes Jen cry a couple times.
Tonight we're talking endgame. No, not the super-successful Avengers movie... we think that podcast is lost forever. This time we're talking SHIPPING endgame. When the plan A couple is endgame vs when the plan changes vs when the plan SHOULD have changed. There's a lot of permutations here, folks. And lots of ship talk.
In the penultimate episode of season 7, Oliver must confront his moral code one last time. And it's a doozy. Plus, TOMMY! Also, we discuss Game of Thrones and our bottom line is basically, DRACARYS, DANY! Then we go back to Arrow cuz that's what we do.
Arrow appears to be limping into the homestretch with this little more than mediocre offering. Sure, it accomplishes some much needed plot developments, but at what cost? (Dinah Drakes ever-eroding character, apparently.) We talk our way through the episode and ultimately mourn only two more episodes with Felicity Smoak.
John Diggle finally gets a decent episode focused on his character, full of all sorts of juicy backstory information. Don't get us wrong, we love it, but we feel we should have gotten this, oh, FIVE YEARS AGO. Also: #SmoaknHawke is literal fire, Felicity isn't dying and Barry Allen remains the worst.
It's Canaries everywhere in this episode and... we liked it? Like... a lot? What is happening?? Seriously though, Arrow delivered a solid episode filled with girl power, women supporting women (and calling them out when the need arose) and some of the best Olicity domesticity we've seen since season 6. Join us for our rambling about redemption, stay for our gushing over NBC's Good Girls!
It's hard to accept something when it's such a shock, so terrible to consider. But we have done just that with Emily leaving the show and what that means for Olicity and Felicity and Arrow in general going forward. So where are our heads at? Join us and listen to us work through the particulars. There's a light at the end of this very long (20 year) tunnel, we're sure of it.
So the worst possible thing has happened... we are losing Emily and Felicity before the end of the show. It's just ten episodes but it may as well be 100 for the hole in our hearts. Join us as we try to process ourselves through the stages of grieving and search for that elusive silver lining.
