Team GATV Roundtable: Looking Back At Arrow Season 5

Least favorite?

MATT: Maybe “The Sin-Eater.” I didn’t find the anti-Birds of Prey team-up to be that interesting. I was also disappointed with “Human Target.” Craig and I have both been pushing for Christopher Chance to be on the show since Season 1. I was hoping for the Mark Valley version. As much as I liked that they went back to the comics-inspired character with the actual disguises, Chance’s inclusion felt superfluous and simply a way to have a scene where “Mayor Queen” gets shot to fill the trailers. Wil Traval wasn’t given enough to do.

STEPHANIE: “The Sin-Eater.” I’m all for a bad girl team up, but Cupid has always felt too corny, China White was so underutilized that I forgot she was in this episode, and I could not remember the backstory of Liza Warner.

MELISSA: “Spectre of the Gun.”

CRAIG: For whatever reason, I haven’t even seen “The Sin-Eater.” It might be the only episode of Arrow that I never got around to watching. I assume I’ll catch it when I get the Blu-ray, but that’s… not very good, is it? I think it aired at a very busy time for me, and then we were in the thick of writing “who is Prometheus?” type articles.

That’s my excuse and I’m sticking to it. You all are making me think I didn’t miss much, though.
