Arrow "Vendetta" - Yeah, a better actress could've pulled off the change thing, but here it was just confusing. She really shouldn't have been so mad at Ollie about the double dinner because he didn't want to do it in the first place! Agreed about the Huntress costume, though, and I liked the crossbow explanation. Green Arrow's origin is kind of outlandish, but it is still ripe for flashing back to and major character transformation. That's something you can't really do with, say, the Flash
( ... )
Arrow: That's what's so infuriating. She was the one who insisted on the double-date and she acts as if Ollie ambushed / betrayed her. That is totally something Lana on Smallville would do. Except Lana wouldn't go on a killing spree afterwards. You're right about GA's origin being conductive to flashbacks. That doesn't stop it from being lame but it REALLY helps with the format of this show
( ... )
Arrow: I probably would've liked Lana more if she did.
Parks and Recreation: That's a bit of an exaggeration, I mean, Chris DID manage to hold it together. He may not be 9, but he's never been rejected by a woman before, and it's a new, unpleasant experience for him. Yeah, Tammy 2 is pretty gross, but I feel like they're implying that Ron has sexual chemistry with many women and somehow it's STILL not as intense as what he had with Tammy 2.
30 Rock: I just meant when Tracy recast her.
Doomsday: My mind had to make up SOME excuse for why Tommy was absent.
Crystal Of Nightmares: It's not just you. In fact, I'm pretty sure in one of the old comics, one of the guardians did bring this up, and no one was even living at the cave at the time. The fact that Superboy and M'Gann's relationship did progress is what makes this a bit more troubling than Teen Titans ever was. The only time I was uncomfortable with Teen Titans was the Malchior episode, probably because of Beast Boy's reaction.
Parks and Recreation: Chris can't handle ANYTHING unpleasant. Guy lives in a serious bubble. And I reject the idea that Ron Swanson would have chemistry with Tammy 2 that strong. I simply do not accept a sane person being attracted to filth like that. To quote Picard: "The universe is not so badly designed."
30 Rock: Ah.
Doomsday: You are a nice person so that doesn't surprise me. :)
Crystal Of Nightmares: I'm curious. Have other fans had similar reactions to the TV show or are you and I just shouting in the wilderness here?

Was Madame Woe in any of these episodes? She actually kind of creeped me out at the time.

No Madame Woe in this batch.
