Other than his arrest, I don't mind his secret being exposed to the few people closest to him this soon. Usually this type of show drags this stuff out for so long, it gets tedious and repetitive. I prefer this - set the stage and move on.

Yes, his abs are a beautiful thing to behold. I appreciate the fact the show's producers realize we need at least one scene of them.
Can we please ditch the Laurel/Oliver thing? Please. I love her with Tommy. Scratch that. I don't really care as long as it keeps her from any longing looks with Oliver. He slept with her sister. End of story.
More Felicity please. She & Oliver are so cute together in their brief scenes.

If they had more of them, the show would probably hold my attention longer.

I love this show and I know nothing about the comic books and any related lore/backstory/canon/whatever the obsessed fans call it.
Why does the supersmart computer geek girl always have shiny blond hair and thick-framed glasses? Is that the new millennium’s answer to the secretly sexy librarian?

It'll be any second now before she gets the "She's All That" makeover by ditching the glasses and putting her hair down.

I like the scenes with Felicity and Oliver too. Anyone else get a non-sibling chemistry vibe from Oliver and his sister? Maybe it's just me, but it takes me out of the show every time.

I actually really liked last nights episode and I haven't really liked any since the first couple. Then I realized a lot of what I liked was that it was almost all flashback. The island scenes are always the best and I find young snotty Oliver more endearing somehow than older ... snotty Arrow Oliver. Huh. Plus older Oliver kept his shirt off and his mouth shut most of the episode- another plus! I love that now Felicity is sort of their BatGirl. And I loved that when she admitted she'd highly suspected Ollie's secret for some time, Diggle admitted that Ollie's terrible at coming up with a decent cover. It really is amazing the whole city doesn't know by now. I'm not sure why they need Laurel, Tommy, Thea and the rest now. It could just be Ollie, Diggs and Felicity fighting crime and being awesome from now on.
Oh- and mom's a good shot. Heh!

I enjoyed this episode too. The island story is really interesting. I'm wondering if we may see some of those characters in the present day story in the next season.
Felicity was terrific last night. She didn't lose it or go all silly over the fact Oliver is Green Arrow. She proved she's no dumb blonde, but it would take an idiot not to see through all of Oliver's BS stories. Why do we need Laurel again?
I cracked up when Oliver noted his only friend on the island was a guy named Wilson.

Me too. I love his little pop culture references to stuff he missed while on the island. Of course, I can't actually remember any of them.
I don't mind Laurel. The show can't just be the Superhero Three; they need a nemesis (Laurel's father) and the reason for his hate. Well, would you believe Paris Hilton was a secret, humanity-saving superhero and that her party girl image was all a cover, even though she disappears for long periods of time?
