You criticise the new prison break and then recommend 24 legacy? Smh

In his defense, I think I support him

Both are not same.

He's a weak ass villain. The psychotic modafocker shot himself and blew up an island with people in it, to make a point.
He should have jumped to his death like "normal people".

Pundits would disagree with the emboldened statement. A quick trawl through the online commentary on the Prometheus character would lay your claims to waste.

A weak-ass villain? Apparently you know little to zero about psychological warfare - a mental chess game in which Adrian Chase repeatedly proved himself to be a grandmaster by always being five steps ahead of Oliver.
Prior to season 5, the most compelling foe Oliver faced happened to be sword-toting Slade Wilson (Deathstroke). Slade Wilson's grievance with Ollie for one was misplaced - he blamed Oliver for Shado's death. Slade's tactic also did not go beyond trying to kill all those close to Oliver before finally settling down to slowly killing Oliver—a narrative I'm certain you'd concede is no more no less a rehash of the go-to strategy of villains who seek to destroy the protagonist(s).

Prometheus' motive(s) on the other hand were more grounded, more deeper, and way more justified. Oliver - a killer - put an arrow in Chase's father all in the name of honouring his dead father's wishes. Do you now see the seething hypocrisy which Chase saw that had him tipped over the edge?
Adrian sought to break Oliver to bits and prove that the very foundations of Ollie's crusade was based on a lie, and that Ollie was only a cold-blooded serial killer who had dreamed up a convenient avenue to justify his murders.

It's glaring Chase is not your garden-variety psychopath. It's just unfortunate if you cannot appreciate the depth of his character.

As for Chase killing himself in order to set off the bombs on Lian Yu: if anything that singular act tells us, it is that Chase is one readily self-destructive SOB hell-bent on crushing every ounce of Oliver's soul, regardless of whether or not he gets to die whilst trying.
Take a cue from Moriaty's suicide in BBC's Sherlock ---- villains who are willing to die, or even kill themselves, so long as it sucks the protagonist into a black hole of mental agony, are usually the WORST OF THE WORST!

If Chase kills all of Team Arrow, do you think Oliver would ever have the spirit to pick up a bow and arrow in his life? I think not! Ergo, Adrian Chase wins and would continue to haunt Oliver post-mortem! Now that, my friend, is how you psychologically devastate a man.

Please, doff your hat for Adrian Chase. The man is a genius!

But i dont like how Detective Babineaux got to know Liv is now a Zombie... It kinda took away that early Season 1 awkwardness. Like how Babineaux stares at Liv when she makes her food... lol

I actually thought it was necessary for Barbineaux to be let in on Liv's secret. He was going to find out sooner or later. Better him finding out from Liv herself.

My fave character is Major Lilywhite. He's so cool, I can bet my bottom dollar that he's the one who put the word cool in LL Cool J.

Just out of curiousity, I want to ask, do you also find yourself smacking your lips whenever a scene comes up that's showing Liv squeezing slabs of brains into a hotdog, or say making doughnuts out of brains?! Weird, huh? I think I need to see a shrink to have my head examined. grin

Damn right he is!

Remember the time he drank a SuperMax and did that wild, crazy run to the dog-minder's office so as to beat Barbineaux and his ex-cop girlfriend in getting to the place? That scene was EPIC! It was one of the best Parkour scenes I've ever seen on a TV show.

At the end of the day, he couldn't get Oliver to kill him and he offed himself.
All his genius plans flushed down the toilet.
That's pathetic in a thousand different ways.
What chase needed was a straitjacket and a permanent residence in a pysch ward.

You almost sounded intelligent there, sadly u are not. I dont do Telemundo and Zee world like you. Neither do i do soaps like you "self-servicer"

And lastly, if u must upload pics of Tv series, try and go for 720p. Dont spoil our eyes with your blurry images... Oh I forgot, a cheap ass fvck that uses glo and downloads from O.2tvseries.

Nice list... I would definitely download "The office"

Seems as if Boston Legal is a spin-off of The Practice... That means I have to see the practice too. cry

Quantico flopped after a few episodes.

100 was cool until Clarke started playing with people's destiny by playing God (Waiting for Season Shaa)

Season 1 was ok for me. All of a sudden, we had Earth One till Earth "Ehm" i dont know how many. Barry could go back to any time he wanted. and you can have more than 65 harrison wells. Iris becam boring (Prefered her when she was a reporter). I could go on and on, but that spoilt my desire for the series.

Cisco was initially disappointed in HR, cos the original HR wells was "Smart" and an inventor, but our season 3 HR just has sweet mouth and carries 2 drum sticks... grin
