I feel that the creator&#8217;s of Arrow wanted to wipe the slate clean from the Smallville world and start a world of their own.\u00a0 Which turned out brilliant I must say.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/arrow-review\/2390868-screen_shot_2012_06_07_at_6_18_56_am_super\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-11757\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11757\" title=\"2390868-screen_shot_2012_06_07_at_6_18_56_am_super\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/2390868-screen_shot_2012_06_07_at_6_18_56_am_super-e1350005573260.png?resize=660%2C361\" alt=\"\" width=\"660\" height=\"361\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>For those of you who missed last night&#8217;s episode, you missed a great background story for what appears to be a\u00a0promising series.\u00a0 I mean, the first few minutes had a reference to Deathstroke, the baddest assassin every created.\u00a0 When I saw that mask on the island, my interest peaked and I couldn&#8217;t keep my eyes off the screen.\u00a0 I hope this means we will see a Deathstroke story in the future.\u00a0 There are rumors of a Deadshot as well as Deathstroke appearance in the first season, which I hope these rumors turn to reality.\u00a0 Anyway, I am getting off subject so let me get back to the show.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Last night, Oliver Queen was found alive after being missing for 5 years.\u00a0 He is the only survivor of a nasty boat wreck.\u00a0 While on the island, the Oliver everyone knew died and the Emerald Archer was born.\u00a0 That was a necessary transition to survive the trials and tribulations that the island provided.\u00a0 Since his recovery, Ollie acts the party boy to cover his new identity.\u00a0 His Green Arrow persona took little time to make himself known since the rescue of Mr. Queen.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>This season is going to be filled with twists and turns and I will be there at every turn.\u00a0 Episode one hooked me and I will continue to watch every week.\u00a0 Stephen Amell is doing a great job as Ollie\/Arrow.\u00a0 The casting director did a great job when they chose him to play the lead.\u00a0 Sure the series is not going to stick to the original Arrow as seen in the comics, but he will definitely keep true to the code of the archer we all know and love.\u00a0 DC Comics wants their characters to pop and attract a new audience as seen by the new 52 comics on sale now.\u00a0 Well, DC you have a hit on your hands with Arrow, and your audiences will continue to grow.\u00a0 I give this episode a 10 out of 10 rating and I have a feeling that every episode will be a 10.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If you didn&#8217;t get to see it last night or you forgot to DVR it, you can watch it online here: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cwtv.com\/cw-video\/arrow\/pilot\">www.cwtv.com\/cw-video\/arrow\/pilot<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/arrow-review\/attachment\/30715\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-11758\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11758\" title=\"30715\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/30715-e1350006501504.jpg?resize=550%2C750\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"750\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last night we saw the\u00a0CW series, Arrow debut and I have to say I was impressed.\u00a0 I really thought the show was well written as &hellip;
