The subplot this mid-season of a once great superhero team fighting itself internally might have been an interesting storyline, if there was a real main plotline this season to begin with. There is just no plot direction going on here at all.
Original Team Arrow vs. Original Team Loser
When the two teams are compared, first you have Oliver who is so strong not only in the fighting skills but in strategy and archery skills with the long history of being the Green Arrow. Diggle and Felicity are also masters in their areas as well as having a long history of working with Oliver. But, why does Original Team Loser have such thick heads?
***Rene is a loser who cannot keep Oliver's secret to save his life - on top of being the true definition of a "Wilddog", he is a lose cannon in every way (emotionally/intellectually).
***Mr. Terrific/Curtis - it is amazing the salmon ladder did not kill him, let alone last season. There are no skills that OTA does not already have themselves.
***Dinah -- well if there is any hope that Laurel could return as the only true Black Canary --then Dinah falls in the loser category too. She is so emotionally unstable and just generally unlikable this season anyway. Time to give up completely on Original Team Loser -- give them their own show on CW the Moe, Larry, Curly of the DC Comic World. Then maybe there can be focus on a true season 6 storyline. The season had strong promise at the very beginning after the Lian Yu battle, but it was derailed by focusing on the Losers. Time to get back on the track for season 6 here.
