I watched Arrow up until about halfway through the episode where Laurel's mother showed up and Helena returned, and somewhere in between Roy calling Thea a "rich bitch" and Diggle referring to Helena as "your psycho ex-girlfriend," I realized not only was no woman between the ages of 20 and 30 was ever going to appear of the show without being ( Read more... )
