Liked the the T-SPHERES got all kinds of stuff to do.

Also got a chuckle out of the last scene with Chase driving with that smirk on his face and that happy-go-lucking song playing in the background.

I enjoyed it. Another dark, but good episode. Something about the ending with Chase driving away with happy music playing after killing two people was creepy.

That had me wondering if the show's producers were watching their competition and got a few ideas. It was kind of a breath of fresh air to see some style like that.

Glad it was only a 1 episode funk for Oliver. Like him hanging up the hood for a bit as well. At least now EVERYONE can go after Prometheus/Chase.

Btw, where the heck did Vigilante go?

I thought this episode was pretty good.

Waiting for Felicity to get her comeuppance for working with the hacker-squad.

Best, and pretty much only good parts, was Curtis in Helix and the Spheres doing their thing. Everything else only needed to exist because of this supposed short term breakdown by Oliver. Sorry, at this point I don't buy that anymore.

They should have started using the T-Spheres soon after introducing Curtis. They have so many uses for crimefighters.

I don't like bringing in more hacking sub-plots with Felicity. Her hacking sub-plots always come off as cheesy and over the top.

I still want to see the T-Spheres used full time and just hover around Curtis like they do in the comics.

So in this episode we learn that even though Oliver enjoy's killing people, that's OK.

A certain character/actor is returning to the show for the season finale.

Stephen Amell posted this on his Twitter feed. Multiple media sites have already reported this, but I'll spoil it here:

Bennett himself has since sent out a tweet indicating he’s not doing it. So understandably, there’s confusion all around at the moment.

Katrina Law is returning as Nyssa Al Ghul.

Her CBS show Training Day is expected to be cancelled, so unless she gets another lead part, she's probably going to be available to all the DC shows next season.

Great. Both have been good additions to the show, especially the new BC.

i wonder if there was a behind the scenes reason for Ragman leaving. Maybe the actor had an opportunity for some big part. It was an abrupt departure and he was definitely one of the more intriguing (and powerful) characters.

Part of the problem was Ragman was more powerful than the whole team combined. I still think Ragman is a better fit for Legends than this show.
