Arrow: 6 Ups And 5 Downs From The Season 4 Premiere 'Green Arrow'

11. Up - "You Have Failed This Omelette"

If you're in the camp of Arrow fans who don't like the pairing of Oliver and Felicity, then large parts of this episode - and presumably the coming season as a whole - are not going to be particularly appealing to you. 

If, on the other hand, you're totally on-board with the couple - I'll confess that I am, though maybe stopping short of 'shipping' 'Olicity' - then this is a great development for the series. It starts off with the pair living in domestic bliss, with plenty of time for Oliver to cook brunch for friends with food from the farmers' market. 

What's undeniable, whether you want them to be together or not, is that Stephen Amell and Emily Bett Rickards have great chemistry together, and that really shines through both in the opening moments, and their later scenes together as well. 

Having too much of this each week could become a bit of a drag, detracting from the more Arrow-based elements, but a nice balance is struck here, and hopefully that'll continue throughout the year. It's also worth pointing out that Felicity is pretty awesome here, which gives me a lot of faith they can get the character back to her former glory while still being involved in a relationship. Just, er, don't let her cook anything.
