Arrow Season 3 Episode 20 Review – ‘The Fallen’
Jessie Robertson reviews the twentieth episode of Arrow Season 3… Damn, anyone got a Smoak?

Bloodline Season 1 Episode 5 Review
Gary McCurry reviews the fifth episode of Bloodline… Five episodes into Bloodline and as soon as you meet a new character you know that their importance won’t be revealed to you straight away, that’s not how they work.
