Honestly this is one of those shows I fail to see the appeal. It's looks and plays like an action soap opera, just like Smallville. Both series are sappy, crude and uninspiring.

 

In the golden age of tv series I dont know how these survive.

There aren't that many sci-fi type shows out there these days, much less ones that survive past a whole season. Most of the time I take what comes along and Arrow is actually better in terms of back story, directing, and acting than some of the other shows like Falling Skies.

I just finished watching through Season 1 again the other day. I'm so stoked for this season to begin.

Something I noticed watching it through again is that Malcolm Merlyn tells Tommy that when he went away for 2 years (and where he got his training) was Nanda Parbat, which is a place in the back story of both The Crimson Avenger and The Question. Both of whom I think could have amazing character adaptions in this show, especially the Question. I'm hoping one of them show up in this season.

Funny you say that...this is what the creator of Arrow had to say regarding Question

 

?The Question is definitely on my list of DC characters that I just happen to love personally, but also who would fit very much into the voice of the show,? Guggenheim says. ?One thing we?ve talked about for Season 2 is getting Oliver out of Starling City, and having him travel around a little bit more. Certainly going to Hub City would be a fun thing to do,? he suggests.

The Wrap report that Caity Lotz (Mad Men, The Pact, Death Valley) has joined season 2 of Arrow as a character called Dinah Drake, AKA Black Canary..even though we thought we already had a Black Canary in waiting in the lovely form of Katie Cassidy! The site reveal that Lotz will have a recurring role at first, but "is expected to eventually become a series regular, as her character will be groomed as a love interest for Arrow (Stephen Amell)". I stopped watching Arrow after about 4 episodes -- does this take fans of the show by surprise? We know Smallville had a Jimmy Olsen who turned out to be the REAL Jimmy Olsen's brother, so this type of this obviously isn't unheard of on the CW.

^Makes sense to me. Dinah Lance's "Canary Cry" wouldn't have fit in with the Arrow universe, unless it was some kind of device. Good to know that Black Canary is going to be part of the series now though and Caity Lotz has the looks to play her. Can't say anything about her acting as I haven't seen her acting yet.

      By Copernic · Posted

      FotoSketcher Studio 4.30 by Razvan Serea FotoSketcher Studio is a free creative tool that instantly turns your photos into artwork. With just a few clicks, you can apply styles like pencil sketches, watercolor, oil painting, ink drawings, cartoons, and abstract effects. Powerful yet simple sliders let you adjust every detail to match your vision, from subtle enhancements to bold artistic transformations. You can also improve your images with tools for contrast, sharpness, color, and brightness, plus add frames and text. It supports JPEG, PNG (including transparency), BMP, and WebP formats for both opening and exporting. Available for Windows (64-bit) and macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel), FotoSketcher also offers batch processing, manual retouching, and custom effects for advanced users. Completely free, including commercial use, with no ads or spyware. FotoSketcher Studio 4.30 changelog: New LUTs effect In the Photo Lab category you will find a new LUTs (Lookup Tables) effect for custom colour grading. It comes with 18 presets built right into the application (Cinematic, Kodachrome, Golden hour, Portrait and more), each with a live preview so you can see the look before applying it. Right-click the preview to compare with your original image. And if you have your own .cube files, you can load those from disk too. New "Stylize" category Added a brand-new Stylize category with four new effects. Three of them (Mosaic, Circles and Triangles) are built on the same space-filling idea, turning your photo into tiled mosaics, clusters of circles, or a low-poly triangle look. The fourth, Cartoon, is a bit different: it gives a clean graphic style with defined lines and solid colours. A little tip - set the colour intensity to 0 and Cartoon draws a pure outline drawing with no fill. Combined with the "Do not erase background" option, you can run it on top of any other effect to add crisp contours in two quick steps. Auto-Enhance and Full Reset Two small but handy additions. Auto-Enhance (just press E) tries to optimise your source photo - exposure, white balance, local contrast - for a 'dehazed', natural-looking starting point. And Full Reset clears everything back to a clean slate in one step (working image, history, LUT, script, brushes and sliders) without having to close and reopen the program. Press Ctrl+Shift+N, or right-click the exit button. Scripts The script engine has been updated to support all the new effects, with a few new commands and improved help. If you would like some inspiration, the recent scripting tutorial on this blog walks through several ready-made example scripts. The usual improvements The interface now uses new colour accents for better readability, the history gallery has had a few tweaks, and you can now open .webp images directly. On top of that, this release includes some performance improvements and a good number of bug fixes.
