Its already leagues better than where Arrow was at during its first season and Arrow's current season.now i got to catch up to flash... how is it compared to arrow?
Plus Joe and Iris West are black.

The Media scene in V is for Vendetta is the clue
Just entering the thread to say I hate Iris' characterization with a passion.

Oh yeah. But I think (someone correct me if I'm wrong because I think I might me) Wally is dead and Bart Allen is Kid Flash. I dunno it that's accurate but if it is that'd be a waste since black or white Wally West is the best FlashWait is The West Family, Black in the New 52?
show is formulaic, predictable but enjoyable. the time travel stuff has me interested in the long term plot.
i slept on arrow thus far, tried to watch 1 episode and quit. should i give it another chance?

Arrow's got a darker overall tone and more action if that's what you're into. I think you should
I tried to like Arrow. I really, really did.

She's a better actress, and didn't screw up her looks like Laurel did by plastic surgery or anorexia/bulimia/pills. Besides, you won't have to worry about her for long. The prison lesbianism angle is bothersome, because the show doesn't really explore it. I could see the show not wanting to offend non-cable tv viewers if it were two men, but lesbianism should have given the show more room to explore why prison homosexuality occurs and how it can screw with the prisoner's head once they're 'free'. Or they could have at least made her lesbian before getting on the boat, and her screwing Ollie had some deeper closet issues than trying to fukk with her sister. Show almost wanted to explore the 'prison sex love is not normal love on outside' angle, then said 'fukk it' and just tried to have its cake and eat it too by ignoring everything except 'lesbianism/girl-bisexualism is hot'.
Superironic, because both Malcolm and Red's actors are gay.
peep the season 3 premiere of arrowI tried to like Arrow. I really, really did.

Arrow is starting to fukk up by listening to the Ollicity fangirls. I liked Ollie and Felicity's chemistry, too, but not enough that I wanted it to go beyond wink wink nudge nudge. Now they've made Ollie hyper jealous so they can eventually have a superhero love triangle? Whatever.

I feel you on that. What I don't like the most about season 3 is the usage of Diggle and Roy. I mean I guess it's only 8(?) episodes in and they each got their 'own episode' but something is just falling flat.

You didn't finish season 2?
You didn't watch Slade Wilson Da Gawd?
Whatever floats ya boat...Flash is more lighthearted...I prefer the darker tone of Arrow...even though season 3 and Dig-L is just
Currently Wally is a black teenager who has not become Kid Flash yet and I think Bart Allen is locked up in the future and calling himself Impulse again.
all caught up and this how is really good. better than the first six episodes of arrow.
