The CWWhile Season 4 started out with promise, the series has since gone downhill from there. Gone are the days where incredible action sequences were anchored by their strong emotional importance, they've been replaced with mopey relationship drama and a lack of thrills. Whereas The Flash continues to improve as it builds to its climax, Arrow has seemingly lost its momentum and desperately needs to rekindle its spark with only a handful of episodes left to go. Considering what a letdown Season 3 was, these last few weeks could be a turning point for the show. Theyll let viewers know if this is the quality to expect going forward or if the writers have found a way to tap back into what made its early years so great. The problems are deep and plentiful but theyre also far from insurmountable. Eight episodes can be a lot of time to work with and these can all easily be fixed in that span. Whether its giving certain characters more time to shine or putting stagnant plotlines out of the main focus, there are easy solutions to all of these, so long as the people in charge want to implement them. Arrow has a chance to make things right and return to the glory days of Season 2. It wont be easy, but by addressing these criticisms, it can still save Season 4.
