TV show description:
Based on the Green Arrow superhero from DC Comics, this TV series follows the tale of billionaire playboy Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell). After being involved in a violent shipwreck, he’s presumed dead for five years before being discovered alive on a remote Pacific island.
When Oliver returns home to Starling City, he’s welcomed by his devoted mother Moira (Susanna Thompson), his beloved sister Thea (Willa Holland), and his best friend Tommy (Colin Donnell). They sense however that Oliver has been changed by his ordeal on the island. While Oliver hides the truth about the man he’s become, he desperately wants to make amends for the selfish actions he took as a boy.
Most particularly, he seeks reconciliation with his former girlfriend, Laurel Lance (Katie Cassidy). As Oliver reconnects with those closest to him, he secretly creates the persona of Arrow – a vigilante – to right the wrongs of his family, fight the ills of society, and restore Starling City to its former glory.
By day, Oliver plays the role of the wealthy, carefree and careless philanderer he used to be — flanked by his devoted chauffeur and tough-as-nails bodyguard, John Diggle (David Ramsey). While doing this, he carefully conceals the secret identity he uses under the cover of darkness.
Laurel’s father, Detective Quentin Lance (Paul Blackthorne), is determined to arrest this Arrow vigilante that’s operating in his city. Meanwhile, Oliver’s own mother, Moira, knows much more about the deadly shipwreck than she’s let on and is more ruthless than he could ever imagine.

What do you think? Do you like the Arrow TV series? Do you think it should have ended with season eight? Would you have watched season nine?
This Is An Excellent series and the characters are strong as well as Storyline so much can be done keep this series going Excellent work by all. Thankyou
This is a great show with the potential introduce other DC characters into the show for cameos. This show needs time to develop like Smallville.
Thanks for this show we ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT AND CAN NOT WAIT FOR THE NEXT SHOW PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL THIS SERIES!!!
will there be an ongoing series of arrow please, its brilliant, many thanks
MANY THANKS TO THE CAST AND PRODUCERS FOR THEIR ENDLESS EFFORTS TOWARD PUTTING A REFRESHING SHOW TOGEATHER SUCH AS ARROW, I WOULD BE DEVASATED TO SEE IT END. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK. I ALSO HOPE THAT THEY WOULD SLOWLY INTRODUCE BRUCE WAYNE AS AN ALLY IN OLIVER’S FIGHT AGAINST CRIME.
Great show. If they can it, it just shows how little imagination they have. There’s some lousey shows still on that shouldn’t have lasted a whole season. Good Luck!
Love it!
Gaydar indicates gay ambigous return.
This show is awsome dont cancel it
All my family and I have enjoyed Arrow. The plot lines and characters are well done. Please do not cancel. We want to see more.
A great show made more interesting by the season long flashbacks to show how Arrow became the hero is currently. A very fine cast with continuing guests makes this show well worth scheduling every week.
Do not cancel has great potential for ongoing story lines. This could in theory continue for many seasons.
Do not cancel
8ongoing
My family has enjoyed Arrow and the layers of depth in the story lines. Please do not cancel.
