Following Oliver’s release from Prometheus’s lair, he sets out on his final two plans as Green Arrow: to kill Prometheus, and disband the team. Both goals prove more complex than he thought, however, as Diggle, Felicity, and the rest of Team Arrow continue to fight to keep the team of vigilantes together, and continue to work on Oliver’s mission to protect the city. To take down Prometheus, Oliver enlists the help of the Bratva, by making a questionable deal with his old friend Anatoli. As Team Arrow continues to work closer with Helix as well, the deals and compromises made are building as the stakes raise, and the team is left to find out if all of this will actually bring down Prometheus, or come crashing down on them instead.
Listen in to hear Cammie and The Flash discuss “Disbanded” (5×18). As always we love getting feedback from the Arrow Squad members so please send in your thoughts too!

I like the “special report” sound effect.
I’m going to need Flash to use his speed to go back in time and fix the LEGENDS episode I saw; first Emily’s in it for a hot second (she did well acting wise but seriously she might as well not have been in it) and then they mention Nyssa but Malcolm has locked in a closeted life in Ohio…kind of a let down, at least Mick and Damien were funny. 🙂 Still not enough to have me talking LOT yet Flash. Maybe in S3.
Boo to the month break!
Definitely mixed feelings about Katie’s return; one the hand, yay Black Siren but on the other they just killed Laurel off as a regular why bring Katie back? That feels like they’re trying to reverse that mistake just upsets me more personally as I thought killing Laurel was an arguably foolish move to begin with – just let her retire and show them it can be done! I know someone had to be in the grave but it didn’t have to be her. If they bump Dinah for Black Siren you aren’t going to be the only angry on Flash; I personally feel they are finally doing Black Canary right with Drake! Sara was never really Black Canary, she was great fighting but the character is more than that (Sara’s got a good out of suit personality but it never screamed Dinah Lance in mentality) and Laurel was interesting out of the suit but they really didn’t really use her well in S4 so Dinah so far has been used well from start to now so I really don’t want to see her go personally. I also don’t want to see Oliver/Black Siren because this is not pre-Flashpoint or this Earth Laurel so if they’re going there with them just no – treat this Laurel as the different person she is; also I hope they don’t redeem her because the shows need consistently good bad guys and she feels like one. Also again you tip toe close to the team being over staffed for another season depending on how many stay and as we’ve said with this season that didn’t work out screen time wise. Again very mixed feelings about this news.
While the “Who’s X?” scene was overall cute, Curtis is clearly Felicity and Dinah John, I definitely have to agree with Cammie in that they need to stop that because part of the reason we like them is they’re not Oliver or John or Felicity because if they were repeats we may not care for them as much thus I did find that conversation a failure but the scene as a whole with them bonding was a plus.
I’m really glad it wasn’t Malcolm Oliver was dealing with because nothing good really comes from them planning together; also I would have disliked seeing Malcolm getting the upper hand again, I enjoy John on the show but it’s past time Malcolm gets his. Let’s buck the tropes and have John stay on as the good twin while Malcolm just hangs out on LEGENDS and FLASH in the past for awhile.
I have to say I liked Susan overall but was highly disappointed they didn’t do more with her beyond love interest.
Great information about the Blue Beetle situation Flash!
I really enjoy the actor playing Adrian; it’s definitely a shift from the last role I saw him in with “Sirens” where he was mainly doing humor.
