Unexpected Reaction
I’m really really sad right now oh my god… Arrow had offered me an outlet and helped me the past 5 years It’s going to be tough moving on

I didn’t know I’d cry when I heard the news but I legitimately can’t help it. Saying goodbye to Felicity Smoak, Oliver Queen, and John Diggle is going to be rough

The Beginning of the End
The final last season of CW Arrow is this fall and apparently ten episodes.

Hope itโs the same for CW Flash, itโs time to take it to the back shed, and just end it. It hurts as a fan but enough is enough.
Its Time Had Come
It’s time for #Arrow to end its just boring, dark & boring it’s my least favorite CW superhero show add it to Modern Family & Big Bang Theory as shows that probably went on too long although I’d like to see if Big Bang could thrive without Sheldon
