Some sad news for Arrow fans. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the CW TV show will end with an abbreviated eighth season this fall.
A DC Comics drama, Arrow stars Amell as Oliver Queen, a billionaire playboy who becomes a vigilante after a violent shipwreck. The cast also includes Colin Donnell, Katie Cassidy, David Ramsey, Willa Holland, Susanna Thompson, and Paul Blackthorne.
The The CW has ordered 10 episodes for the eighth and final season of Arrow. See reactions from the cast and creators below:
Playing Oliver Queen has been the greatest professional experience of my life… but you can’t be a vigilante forever.
Arrow will return for a final run of 10 episodes this Fall.
There’s so much to say… for now I just want to say thank you.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Without an audience, there is no show. Thanks to the millions who provided years of employment to hundreds. We aim to craft a finale season that will do you proud. https://t.co/bVyeyotiQZ

What do you think? Are you a fan of Arrow? How do you want the series to end?
I don’t want to see it end
It truly sucks!! They deserve to have at lease a 18 to 20 episode finale season. Not a 10 episode season. The show is way to GOOD to only have a 10 episodes. For the last season. CW needs to find a way to get Steven & Emily back on some kind of other show of some kind of on the network possibly the same show. Along with the rest of the Cast on the network in some way aswell.
I have enjoyed Arrow, esp. the recent seasons that ‘face forwards’ more than previous years. Given the set-up we were given with this season’s crossover, I’m betting on a phenomenal series finale, and a fitting one for the genre. I’m sure Mr. Amell & Co. will finish just as strongly as they started, if not better! Looking forward to a spectacular next season for ALL of the CW’s DC TV shows.
I like the arrow the flash supergirl I started to watch legacies I give upp other shows like charm riverdale show go and now bringing cat girl not interested
Sad for the fans. Wish it had been Supergirl or maybe Legends.
Worst news ever hopefully the network will change there minds.
This is sad news, but this season actually had me wondering what they were going to do.
Oh wow eight years of the arrow thats all the time of this show went by fast,i dont want show to go i like it so much.
