To be totally obsessed with the tvseries Arrow!

I have been really sick the past few weeks so a lot of time spent in bed being restless and bored. I decided to start watching a TV series and came across Arrow.

Well I'm halfway through season 2 and don't want to put my phone down! Totally obsessed and before an episode ends I want to watch the next one.

My only concern is what will I do once I finish watching it but there are still 2 more seasons to get through Grin

So AIBU to be so obsessed or can I be excused for being this way as I've been rather unwell?

We watch it too. The good news is that Flash runs in conjunction with the last series and this series I think so that's double the episodes. We are really liking the Flash.

Also try Dare Devil too for a shorter series.

Pulledapart2015 · 07/11/2015 13:25

Ah thanks zesty I will definitely check out Flash and daredevil afterwards Smile

Dp and I have Arrow on the go at the moment, and I'm obsessed too. It's a glorified soap opera, but I love that.

We've just started series 2 and I nearly didn't come on in case of spoilers!

Can't stand whingy Laurel, though.

Pulledapart2015 · 07/11/2015 16:11

Don't worry attheendoftheday I won't be posting any spoilers. I second your thoughts about laurel though I too am finding her very annoying.

I just love the fact that it keeps you guessing it's not predictable well at least to me lol

Started watching it today and I'm loving it! I also watched the new Supergirl with dd, wich she loved.

Leelu6 · 07/11/2015 17:20

YABU ... For watching it on your phone Grin

Tablet, at least Wink

WhoisLucasHood · 07/11/2015 17:22

DD is currently watching Supergirl. I liked Arrow, halfway through S1. Should I continue then?

ValiantMouse · 07/11/2015 17:24

I thought season three wasn't their best but overall it's a good show. :)

CarpeJugulum · 07/11/2015 17:26

Binge watched them all. Now on season 4 but in "real time". I struggle waiting a week for each episode!

LumpySpacedPrincess · 07/11/2015 17:39

Pah, had to turn it off as dd is back and she wants to watch My Little Pony.

Pulledapart2015 · 07/11/2015 18:14

Lol yes leelu u may be right about upgrading to a tablet. I just find watching it on my phone so much easier.

whoislucashood yes definitely continue its worth it.

Ah lumpy that is precisely y I watch it on my phone as DD confiscates the laptop Grin

valiantmouse season 3 is about 5 episodes away for me so I won't build my hopes up too high Wink

carpejugulum gosh I don't think I could deal with waiting a week for an episode I would start having withdrawal symptoms Grin

I've finally caught up and watched all the way to series4 the only sad part is now have to wait a week for each episode 😔

I think I'm going to start watching the flash now ☺

It's no Agents of Shield

Pulledapart2015 · 23/11/2015 15:54

Hmmmm ofshoes Ive watched a few episodes of the flash it's ok. Maybe I should switch to agents of shield😐

OP posts:
ofshoes · 23/11/2015 16:06

they're all campy nonsense which is great but I found Arrow and the Flash and Supergirl to be just a wee bit too soapy and campy for my taste.

Agent's of Shield starts slowly but gets really good when it all ties into the stuff going on in the movies.

Daredevil was enjoyable tat too. I'm also about half way through Jessica Jones and loving it, not so all out super heroish and David Tennant has been a revelation as the baddy.

Pulledapart2015 · 23/11/2015 18:22

I guess I'm into soapy stuff then as I loved the arrow LOL

Daredevil sounds like a good one though even zesty mentioned it up thread.

I think I'll get through the flash then move onto agents of shield/daredevil 😆

I love love love daredevil!! Watch it!
Arrow? Yes been watching but I find them all slightly annoying. ...
Oliver.... His hair is a bit action manny!
Felicity... Irritating as hell... I hate all that... Put her in glasses... He'll figure out she's lovely sooner or later!!
His sister (can't remember her name!!)... Has a really annoying way of speaking!
I like Diggle!? Dingle?
Laurel! Arrrgghhh!
I like officer Lance!
Sarah... Can't stop staring at her chin!
It's all just a little off!!
Oh dear! I think I'm quite irritable!! Shock
.... But. ... Watch DAREDEVIL!!

Bea · 23/11/2015 19:42
I love this scene!! Hmmm! Matt murdock!!
Pulledapart2015 · 23/11/2015 19:47

Ha ha ha bea like your list and must say I agree with some of it. Lance and Diggle are the most likeable ones aside from oliver (who I'm just swooning over so a little biased) I've grown to like felicity too! The most annoying has to be laurel - I just find her acting so awful that it makes me Angry
