I was promised a Black Siren episode, but not really, Felicity-centered. Classic Guggenheim prank. Despite not being the best episode, it wasn't that bad either.
Leave away the S4 drama and bullshit and Olicity is a great couple. I liked the little role reversal. It felt weird to see Ollie behind the computer. However, I'm getting tired of people randomly praising Felicity telling her that all she can't do wrong. She apologized and even said that she was wrong so, hey, that's something. When it seems she's close to a character development, someone always comes to say she's always right.
The episode was weird, awkward, full of typey-typey and tech-babble. "Less how, more what" should be their motto. Who writes the tech talk? It seems as if they just spin the wheel of tech-sounding words and put them all together in a sentence. Then add a character saying "English!" and done. Once is more than enough, then it gets old.
Are you seriously telling me that the whole Internet is in a building which so happens to be in Star City exactly where three key holders live? And the entire Internet has just one guard?
Bright side, Cayden James is awesome. I was so hyped to see Michael Emerson. He looked so menacing. Take down the Internet. Evil. Using Felicity to do his dirty work was great.
Black Siren luring people to their deaths exactly like sirens do. Katie Cassidy is great in this role. She referred to herself as Dinah! I loved that for some reason. Why does nobody recognize Laurel? I mean, she just changed her hair. But they're the same who don't see the GA suddenly change skin color.
The cinematography is outstanding. The fighting scenes are amazing. Black Siren shattering John's arrow was great!"I'm glad we saved the Internet. My fantasy football team was killing it this year", lol. Rene always delivering the best one liners.
That ending scene got me SO excited! Slade takes priority over Felicity, lol. Two episodes with just Oliver and Slade is what I need!

Although I liked the episodes otherwise, that whole Internet Vault thing was absolute crap.

Nora must have quickly become a fan favorite, so much, that y'all are willing to turn against Iris. Yes, Nora is adorable. I get it, but, let's keep it real, she adds zero value to the series. I prefer to have Cisco's ex-girlfriend Gypsy join the main cast than Nora.

@datbabyaintmine I must be in the minority then, I think she's incredibly annoying...
This show is bitchin! Great season finale.

@ventorius this show is getting lamer with every episode. The season finale was awfull. They just beat Davoe like it was nothing, even after he comes back in the chair, he just waitet for the core to get ripped out... . The animations of the part in Davoes Mind "Matrix 2 Style" where as bad as in the Movie Matrix itself.
This show has nothing exceptional about it at all. It's pretty lame and cookie cutter. Disappointing.

It was great till the season 2 ending, then it all went downhill, still going
Wait... What?
But.. But.. but.. what about that stuff with Ray? He couldn't have done that from within, right?
I'm puzzled......loading replies
@possamai I think Ray is a warden in the prison and asked Elliot for help. The computer work always happens at night it seems because it's always dark outside judging from the windows in Ray's office. The guys that beat Elliot up are either corrupt guards or his minions inside the prison.
It feels like the season misses a general narrative. The single story lines are nice, but the feel disconnected not only from each other, but also from episode to episode. I don't see yet how they will bind those vignettes together

@reindertot maybe you are right. I think (or hope) that they will tie it together in the back half of the season, but for me the show has the Game of Thrones Problem. They opened up to many story lines and now they are struggling to give all of them the time they need. Just Elliots and Angelas, or Elliot's and Dominique DiPierro's storyline would be enough for one season. But i am also holding the show to it's own standards. It is not bad in a general way, but i felt a bit overwhelmed.
Undoubtedly one of the best episodes in the history of The Walking Dead.

Review by Alex Stevanovic
I've watched this series from day one and loved it until season 4. When season 5 started, with their major plot changes, I wanted to quit this show but this episode made me loathe this show to the point where I would literally beat up Martin for giving HBO the rights to change the story line this much. I'm personally disappointed with HBO for killing of such a lovable and adorable character in a way that it wasn't possible. Stannis would NEVER agree to such a thing (and if you remembered in the last episode, he turned down Melissandre without thinking twice). Why did the TV show drop in quality? I was ready to bear the fact that Lady Stoneheart wont be in the show (even tho she has a MAJOR influence in the books) but not this major flaw. Stannis is a weak man, unable to endure the seduction of a witch and the only thing that was able to cancel her manipulation was Shireen. For god's sake Selyse had second thoughts, the woman who hated her daughter more than anyone in the world but Stannis didn't, the man who showed so much love and pride in her daughter.
I'm rating this episode 1 because this is the last episode I will ever watch of Game of Thrones. I was able to survive "The Red Wedding" and Oberyn Martell because I knew this was coming but this... THIS... I'm disgusted.
EDIT: If the actress didn't wanna act in the series any more they (HBO) could have at least killed her via Ramsey Snow's 20 men sneak attack or something. This was utterly revolting. :/

Also, the "probably to stop the low ratings" doesn't make jackshit sense. You know they record the whole season and then air it, and not make 1 episode at a time every week, right? They couldn't have predicted the ratings

Dude, quit being so much fucking butthurt. The show ISN'T the book. The plot changes, you can't predict it anymore. Welcome to the world of the show watchers, that's how every major death has felt to us, literally "omg why would he do that" every time.
Has the thought of the two things being separate ever crossed your mind? Perhaps the show Stannis isn't your book Stannis.
It was cruel, but it was needed. It showed that there are 2 Stannis in the books, badass Stannis that trusts Davos, and retard Stannis that trusts Melisandre. The second one is taking over more than ever.
All sorts of people die in this show, get over it

GRR Martin told the HBO writers to kill Shereen. Watch "Inside the episode #9" on youtube. Also some online articles say that GRRM hinted this scene will be in the next book (but I haven't read the books, so what do I know).
