After seven seasons, Oliver Queen finally saved Starling City, but as a Crisis loomed he once more stepped unto the breech to save all of reality from annihilation. In this episode we discuss Season 8 of Arrow. We talk about the familiar faces returning, how it works as a wrap-up, the Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover, and what we thought of the Green Arrow and the Canaries backdoor pilot. We also bring up the ramifications to the greater Arrowverse and discuss why there might be some more Green in the CW’s future soon. As usual we also talk about the characters, acting, and storylines.
