It's probably got a HUD or some interface to connect with Felicity's computer system so that he can do some of his back-office work while in the field

Built-in GPS and the ability to always track the location of his car so he can chauffeur Oliver around town.

Oliver's broke. Felicity is now the rich industrialist.

We'll see. They have at least acknowledged that last season was bad and said they are going to do better.

I'm curious, where did they acknowledge that? Maybe it is a good thing my expectations are low.

My expectations for season 1 of Arrow were super low, which helped get me hooked.

Various interviews, and Guggenheim's special message after the season 3 finale was basically him saying "yeah we hosed up, sorry guys we'll do better."

You can kinda tell Amell knew S3 wasn't up to snuff as he wasn't doing his massive hype train like the first two seasons, calling on people to watch certain episodes and talking about his favorites. He's back on board with drumming up interest for this season and I'm taking that as a good sign. He's very aware of everything surrounding the show and its perceptions.

Being aware of a show's failings and being able to fix a show's failings are two different things. I'm cautiously optimistic, still.

You got a link on that? A quick googling didn't turn it up.

I think they just need to avoid making the mid-season finale the climax of the season. Because poo poo was all downhill from there last season.

When I saw how tame the trailer was, I wasn't exactly filled with confidence in them being able to get things back on track this season.

He will probably show up for a couple cameos, but he is no longer a cast member.

Colton had a two year contract that started back in late season 1. Then they decided not to re-up him, most likely to save money.

They offered him a reoccurring gig but not show regular status for season 4 which is why he bailed.

Kinda telling when the Flash S2 thread is up already yet no one's made one for Arrow S4.

Did people really get turned off by season 3 that much?

I consider myself a fan of the show, and I just found out today that S4 premiers tomorrow. I thought it was coming out next week or something, so maybe S3 turned me off more than I thought.
