Oliver is meant to be 27 at this point - his gravestone says he was born in 1985. Stephen Amell, who plays Oliver Queen, was 31 at the time... so, he's not that much older than the character.
They could turn the Queen Mansion into a Green Arrow museum or one for Star City vigilantes in general. Similarly, the Flash museum should have commemorated his whole team.
About your Batman-lite comment. On this show they often do use Oliver as a Batman surrogate (probably because they weren't allowed to make a Batman show). This includes making him darker than he usually is in the comics and also giving him several Batman villains or turning several of his villains into surrogates for Batman villains when they weren't in the comics.
unfortunately after season 2/3 it goes to shit, they really dropped the ball with it in my opinion, but the first few season with the budget they had are pretty amazing.
So there's a running joke, and once you know it. You can't 'unhear it". This show has a long running history of having "Are You OK?" in it's scripts for each episode. 11:38
I one hundred percent agree that especially in this first couple of episodes which I always assumed took place over maybe the course of a week they were all trying to rush Oliver to talk about what happened and pushing him to just go back to a normal life while simultaneously judging him for being irresponsible when he said that he wasn’t ready yet and judging him for being upset at them about the pressure of it all.
He did most of his stunts as i understand it. I actually met him at a convention years ago. Nice guy in person. He also inspired me to get into better physical condition (i wasn't unhealthy, but i wanted to be stronger; an arrow themed workout routine was also published around the time, it was pretty intense, pushups and situps to failure, box jumps, and pullups to failure).
In the first couple seasons, he did a larger portion of stunts than the average lead. But there were lots his double still did, as there are insurance issues that productions wont let cast get by.
Arrow was the second superhero TV show I watched after Smallville. From the pilot to the end, the show definitely has a lot of up and downs. Overall tho, well worth the journey. And I'm with you, Stephen Amell is a ridiculously attractive guy!
That is Kelly Ann Hu playing Chien Na Wei (China White) head of the Chinese Triad in Starling City. She also played the Sorceress/Clairvoyant in the Scorpion King movie starring Dwayne Johnson. As well as Lady Deathstrike in X2: X-Men United. There will definitely be more flashbacks. 5 years is a lot of backstory to ignore. So they will slowly be filling in the gaps. It just makes you want to know more. Excellent writing in this first season. 😅
Yup, a group of his Patreons are sponsoring the 4 main shows (Arrow, Flash, Legends, Supergirl), and are working with Travis to ensure he watches everything in the proper order. Sadly that means it will be a bit until he starts the other shows though.
@@Underscore11I watched flash first 2 seasons & now after watching the first 2 seasons of arrow, think flash is a dumpster fire, joke of a show compared to arrow imo. That’s also partly bc how he got his powers is some of the most ridiculous shit I’ve ever heard compared to Oliver, who just like Batman, just trained, maybe did some psychedelics, etc. how flash gets his powers & mom dies I think it was? Sounds like something a child would come up w but hey wtf do Ik just giving my opinion as someone who knows basically nothing ab the dcu bedsides batman & the Justice league as a kid & now arrow & flash. Even how captain marvel got her powers made more sense thwn what a particle collider or something caused the weather, to which he is then struck by lightning & all of a sudden super fast. Ok….. guess we’ll just go w that
yeah they reaaaaally did rush Oliver Like.. they are so inconsiderate haha. i feel like Oliver does all the time. i been alone for over half a decade cus people kept hurting me. Shows like this help me feel human
There is so much to this show it introduces other characters that are in the Arrowverse maybe you'll take an interest in the other shows that come from the arrow
Just a few things to remember, you said something about the arrow could get infected but in the first ep the dr said that 60% of his body is covered in scars and he has like 10 fractures that never healed properly 😅 this is just the beginning
With the DC CW Shows; Smallville started it all. They originally wanted the Green Arrow from that show to have a spin-off, but the studio just decided to make it a completely separate continuity/universe, which created the Arrowverse. I'd say it's unfortunate how some of these shows get lumped in with everything else. You'll see, "Oh the CW? All those shows are trash." It's funny because somehow the first 2 seasons of each superhero DC show on the CW was amazing from the Arrowverse. -Arrow -Flash -Superman and Lois (All seasons have been great) -Star Girl (From what I've heard, it was good, and I think only had 2 seasons) -Legends of Tomorrow (Supergirl and Batwoman were trash start to finish, so I'm not including them in the great seasons category) Then Season 3 of all of them (minus the exceptions already named) were ok, then season 4 onward was just garbage. (Mainly Flash and Legends, they never recovered) However, Arrow, even though it dipped in quality around season 3 and 4, it quickly bounced back after that, and overall was still great. (Also, Constantine, which only had 1 season, which he was later put into the Arrowverse, his show was on a different network, but was amazing, please ya'll gotta watch Constantine!)
@@dylanshadowstar9779 It's definitely the correct order. I've been rewatching all the shows to prepare for Travis watching them and I've made a list of the exact order he needs to watch everything in for it to all make sense for him.
As much as I love this show, it's more of a mixture of Batman's and Green Arrow's, Characters, Stories, and Tone. So some of the best parts about Green Arrow you won't find in this show.
Yeah he continuing supernatural (he actually fininshed watching season 6 by the time) reacted 4th season halfway last two episodes he went for small gap but now too delay to release next episode reaction
I just found your channel off of recommended videos, episode one was the first one I clicked on because I love this show. I gotta ask, though, are the images on the screen necessary? I've seen other channels do reactions without them. Either way I'll probably sub to at least see this series play out, maybe more.
This is a pretty good show, but it's not a great depiction of Green Arrow. Like you said, very Batman-lite, whereas Green Arrow is a much more campy kind of character, more comedic. Which is why Justin Hartley is the superior Green Arrow imo
His mother is really deserving of the worst mother of the century award. And his sister is by far one of the worst charcters of the series. I'd choose hanging out with Malcom Merlin a million times before choosing her.
Imo, a series is a series! And as long as it gets an end, it’s all one story! Ya might not enjoy some of it! But that’s bound to happen! All in all! Arrow is amazing! If I had to rank them myself! I’d have to say season 1, 2 and 8 are my favs 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 are really good in there own way, they are different to the core of what we get in 1&2 but that doesn’t necessarily make it bad!
Season 5 was good, 6 was mid (the main story wasn’t good but the side stories and fights were awesome), the first few episodes of season 7 were great and season 8 was fantastic, way better final season than flash and supergirl If I had to rank all the seasons it would be 1/5/2 interchangeable 8 6 3/7 interchangeable 4
@@Markimusgaminghonestly with how bad the later seasons of the flash are it made me appreciate season 4 of arrow. Some of the fights were badly choreographed but some of them were good, the villain (not gonna say spoilers) was charismatic and great in general. If you skip the soap opera stuff it’s a pretty okay and watchable season
I have already watched the entire first season on Patreon ! Join today to be way ahead of what’s on TH-cam ! 😜
You should react to an AMC martial arts action series called *Into The Badlands* sometime soon!!
When will you continue Supernatural. I can't wait😁
Yes, he did do most of his own stunts
He actually did 60 percent of his stunts
yeah most of the season 1 stunts stephen actually did which is crazy
Oliver is meant to be 27 at this point - his gravestone says he was born in 1985. Stephen Amell, who plays Oliver Queen, was 31 at the time... so, he's not that much older than the character.
Arrow deserves to be put in a museum
They could turn the Queen Mansion into a Green Arrow museum or one for Star City vigilantes in general. Similarly, the Flash museum should have commemorated his whole team.
@@DiscipleDave83 agreed
It's the perfect superhero show.
@@MarcoInvo I watched Smallville. Fuck Smallville, this is a good superhero series.
I think his suit was already in that hall of justice place after crisis

Well their story is connected remember... They are kind of family through Al-Ghul family
Arrow really was such amazing show!
So happy to see 2nd episode drop so soon :D
unfortunately after season 2/3 it goes to shit, they really dropped the ball with it in my opinion, but the first few season with the budget they had are pretty amazing.

this makes me want to rewatch Daredevil too omg. DD is higher quality however
but i love both
Bro is absolutely THIRSTY for Ollie lol
Who isn’t
I am too. Married. To a girl.
Every line is “and he’s hot” and honestly who could say he’s wrong
as he should be

Laura is a private attorney not the prosecutor. She is suing him in civil court.
Travis: Kinda like batman lite
Me: Oh you sweet summer child
I SO HOPE YOU WATCH THE WHOLE ARROWVERSE IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER. I did my rewatch in order it is soo worth it.
Yup, a group of his Patreons are sponsoring the 4 main shows (Arrow, Flash, Legends, Supergirl), and are working with Travis to ensure he watches everything in the proper order. Sadly that means it will be a bit until he starts the other shows though.

yess after watching eps 1 the other day i was waiting for this lol good show
18:02 it’s the way Oliver is doing it that Lance doesn’t like. Oliver has no restraint and will kill unlike most heroes that won’t.
Love that you're enjoying the ongoing mystery and lore, it's a lot of fun watching it with you
I know I said I’d come back to this later but! It’s arrow! 😊
It's awesome that you're watching this! We also need more supernatural!
Oh wow....I remember Arrow. What a great series!
yeah they reaaaaally did rush Oliver
Like.. they are so inconsiderate haha. i feel like Oliver does all the time. i been alone for over half a decade cus people kept hurting me.

The bad guy played Eli in season 2 episode 3 of Supernatural a vampire
There is so much to this show it introduces other characters that are in the Arrowverse maybe you'll take an interest in the other shows that come from the arrow
Yesss this is my favourite comic show only behind The Boys...loving the reactions
Just a few things to remember, you said something about the arrow could get infected but in the first ep the dr said that 60% of his body is covered in scars and he has like 10 fractures that never healed properly 😅 this is just the beginning

keep watching this show, and watch the flash too
Amell competed on ninja warrior he is Arrow
Okay! Imma need daily uploads on this😭😭😭
If you Watch the arrow the flash the legends of tomorrow and supergirl are a must watch it all come together just like the marvel movies do
Those of us on Patreon are paying for Travis to watch all 4 shows in airing order. 😊

All will be revealed by the end of the season on the symbol and who sabotage the boat.
you should upload these daily if you got time this show is so good and I'm enjoying watching it with you

Superman and Lois is a completely unrelated show, so he can watch it whenever he wants
@@dylanshadowstar9779 you right
Day 1 of asking for the walking dead reactions
