They need to change the costume. Green is so yesterday, maybe a darker shade of crimson? And maybe leather? And 'Queen' has connotations so they'll need to change it to "Williams". And bows are so 'old fashioned' so they'll give him two wicked handguns that he can hold sideways and shoot while diving through the air in slow motion....and....

Yeah, they should totally change his name to Wild Dog too. laugh
Green Arrow sounds like a package delivery firm.

Hee hee.  Reminds me of Neil Gaiman's 'The Goldfish Pool and Other Stories'.

Um.  Huh.

Deadman could be interesting, and not have to be so tied to comic stuff to work.  But Arrow sounds...off already.

I'm trying to abstain from Mojo and the inevitable fight that I feel will resurface as it returns. I would appreciate it if everyone would respect that and not give me any. Thank you.

OK, this has total fail written all over it.

"Tommy Merlyn"?  Because Merlyn the Archer just doesn't make sense?

"Thea Queen"?  Why don't they just call her "Paris Kardashian" and give her a tramp stamp that reads "This Show's Popular Whore" and a coin slot in her forehead?

And Dinah "Laurel" Lance?  So this would be the GA version of Black Canary sometime after she married Det Lance, but after he dies somehow so she can knock boots with Oliver?  Or will Det. Lance show up to make a love triangle as he goes after the Arrow-Guy who his wife has the hots for, even as she hates Oliver?

Smallville made Lex and Clark besties as teens. Well, Lex was well into his 20's kicking it with a highschool freshman. You know, like billionaires do. This doesn't sound as bad as that. Lionel's character bio would not read well in a brief snippet. Nor would Allison Mack's character. I'll reserve hating it until I see it.

Who knows what this will be like, but I'll definitely check it out.  How often is GREEN ARROW going to get a live action TV series?  If it sucks, I can easily stop watching.
