This CW hit series ran for an incredible 8 seasons and it never lost its spark. Yeah, it had its ups and downs but what show doesn’t. In general, it was very well written. Some amazing topics were brought up and dealt with. (for example, William being gay and telling his dad). I could go on and on about what this show has done for television, but then this would turn into a 2-page article and nobody wants to read that.

On a more personal level, I rarely watch TV shows right from the start, but “Arrow” was one of the few shows I watched right from the beginning. I barely remember how I felt watching it, but I do remember wanting to continue watching it.

I was just a teenager when this show started, and now I’m a full-grown adult. I don’t know where the time went, but it flew by fast. It is crazy how much we have all changed during these past 8 years. This show has been there for me, every time I needed it. It brought a smile to my face seeing some of my favorite characters on screens. To see these people struggle with the same things we all do. I have not had to say ‘goodbye’ to a lot of shows like this before. It is hitting me hard, but I also know it is for the best. I could not have been more proud of the way they ended this show. They ended on a high note and will continue to spread the legacy they created. (hopefully with a spin-off)

Thank you, Stephen, for playing Oliver the way you did.
Thank you, Emily, for Felicity and everything you did.
Thank you, David, for Diggle…
Thank you “Arrow” for being apart of my/our lives.
