Hey guys, nice after show, we missed Kaorie though... I was thinking about an idea about your show because there's a lot of people (mostly european I guess) that watch your show several hours or days after the live ! So maybe you could take a few minutes at the beginning or the end of future after shows and react on YouTube or Twitter comments that brought up something new about the episode ^^
That being said I absolutely agree with you about the wrongs on this particular episode, especially during the screaming moment of Sara that I really saw as a fanmade scene, a reminder of her comics' powers.
I'm not the biggest fan of Roy even though I like him but I didn't miss him in this episode, I find that the producers really succeed in switching between all the mainless characters of the show...
My opinion is that Thea will notice that Oliver and Moira have an issue and starting from that she'll find that about her biological father ! About "Oliver's flaw" I thought it was more like he could have forgiven one more lie of his mother but he couldn't forgive her threatening someone especially not a friend of his so I don't think he overreacted at all it was perfect at the moment, what I find strange about all this is why Felicity goes to Moira whereas she just talked about it to Walter ?
About the Gotham show I think you're wrong John because Kevin Reilly (president of the Fox network) said that the show will follow Bruce Wayne from childhood untill the moment he'd put the cloak on, supposedly on the last episode ! But I agree when you say that we won't have a DC shared universe with Arrow, even if I'd like to see Steven McQueen as Nightwing in an episode or two next season
Not to mention the kissing part with Nyssa - that we all enjoyed, and that we were a few to predict before the episode aired (unlike what you thought) - I don't think that we'll see Ra's Al Ghul just yet ! Indeed, we only have ten episode left before the season ends and so many things to see before that (the Clock 'T-Bag' King, the Suicide Squad, the final battle against Brother Blood, the Mayor's elections, Merlyn's storyline with Thea, Huntress and the Birds of Prey, Slade/Deathstroke, ...) I believe that Ra's might send his other girl Talia before the end of season 2 (probably to deal with Merlyn by the way) and once she's defeated or that she dies we'll meet him in person during season 3. By then the team-up (Green Arrow, Black Canary, Roy/Red Arrow/Arsenal, Huntress and Flash =p) will be ready to receive them lol
Hey, what if Felicity's father was secretly Robert Queen ? That would make sense why he left her and her mother to take care of his first family, why she was working at Queen Consolidated, why she was attracted by Oliver (Oedipus complex). In short it could be a really great storyline !
Last idea of mine : I was wondering after watching the after show who could trani Oliver ? Maybe that Slade's mentor from australian secret services comes to the island, worried that he's in trouble, finds out thanks to Olie that he's gone mad and train him in order to contain Mirakuru Slade...
