Arrow

by Ryan Rigley

Last night's episode of "Arrow" was chock full of big surprises. From the vigilante revealing his secret identity to yet another one of Oliver Queen's closest associates to the reappearance of a villain long thought dead, "Dead to Rights" focused mainly on the budding relationship between Oliver and Detective McKenna and the father/son relationship between Tommy and Malcolm Merlyn, a.k.a. the Dark Archer.

Sixth Gun

"The Sixth Gun" is arming up. Carlton Cuse of "Lost" fame is executive producing the NBC adaptation of the Oni Press comic book, and he's assembling quite the cast.

Deadline reports that Laura Ramsey has landed the lead role of Becky Montcrief in the upcoming supernatural Western pilot. "The Sixth Gun" takes place in the Old West and centers on six mystical guns with deadly powers; the sixth of these weapons is the deadliest of them all, and it falls into the hands of innocent Becky, kick-starting a series of dangerous events and putting her on the path of evil men long thought dead.

Walking Dead

by Kat Rosenfield

The show might be called "The Walking Dead," but those titular ambulatory corpses have officially become more a nuisance than a threat; these days, the true danger is lurking in fortified camps behind well-guarded walls, as Sheriff Rick and Governor Philip prepare to play some war games. And with a showdown imminent between the two groups of survivors, this week's episode was all about subtle shifts and sadistic strategy, as each leader pushed his pawns into place. Where do we stand after "I Ain't a Judas"? Read on.

SPOILERS AHEAD.

Roy Harper

by Ryan Rigley

Watch out, Starling City! There's a new troublemaker in town and he's stealing purses and hearts! Figuratively speaking, of course. Last night, Roy Harper (as played by "Teen Wolf's" Colton Haynes) made his big "Arrow" debut. Scheduled to appear in at least three episodes this season, it's quite apparent that Roy is more than just another lowlife.

"Roy is a troublemaker," agrees Colton Haynes in a recent interview with MTV Splash Page. "He thinks he can get out of every single situation but he keeps going for situations where he needs the help of someone a lot more powerful than he is."

A lot more powerful as in, say, the Hood? Read on past the jump!

Walking Dead

"The Walking Dead" ain't a Judas, as it'll prove to you in Sunday's new episode titled, appropriately enough, "I Ain't a Judas." But you could forgive the survivors living in the prison for casting suspicious glances at new inmates Michonne and Merle Dixon. Though the sword-swinging zombie-killer is nowhere to be found in these four new photos from the coming "Walking Dead" episode, Merle is all over the place, assault rifle in hand, safely behind the prison walls. Either he's officially part of the team, or he's taking matters into his own hands. Er, hand.

More photos below the break.

Arrow

by Ryan Rigley

Love seems to be in the air in Starling City as last night's "Arrow" featured both Oliver Queen and Diggle going out on fancy dates, not to mention the fact that Thea Queen has found a new love interest in the form of bad boy Roy Harper. "Dodger" revolves mostly around Oliver and company tracking down a jewel thief named the Dodger. He's smooth, he's swift, and he loves to strap bombs to people's necks.

S.H.I.E.L.D.

With "S.H.I.E.L.D.'s" pilot episode officially wrapped, Joss Whedon is finally ready to open up a bit about the new Marvel TV series. According to him, it will feature everything he loves best about comic books.

"I’m excited about the show because it’s a very hopeful show," Whedon told TV Line. "It’s not about murder, and it’s not about crime, and it’s not people looking into their own belly buttons. It’s about people who are trying to help each other, and that’s one of the things I loved about comic books. They had costumes and the villains were cool [but] they stood for something, and I like doing a show that does that."

Walking Dead

by Kat Rosenfield

It was all about shifting loyalties, tenuous sanity, and creative weaponization of a mom-mobile on this week's "The Walking Dead," as the prison survivors prepared for retaliation at the hands of the one-eyed Governor and the wandering Dixons explored the bounds of brotherly love. Here's your recap of last night's action.

Arrow

by Ryan Rigley

In a surprising turn of events, last night's episode of "Arrow" was comprised mostly of flashbacks to Oliver Queens's time on the mysterious island of Liànyù. "The Odyssey" picks up precisely where last week's episode left off, with the hooded vigilante breaking into Queen Consolidated and interrogating Moira Queen at arrow-point. Moira, who denies having anything to do with Walter's disappearance, eventually gets the upper hand, shooting her own son with a hidden handgun.

Oliver makes the tough decision of revealing his secret identity to Queen Consolidated's I.T. girl, Felicity Smoak, with the hopes that she will drive him back to the Arrowcave and help remove the bullet from his shoulder. Being that Oliver Queen is technically her boss and also a known murderer, Ms. Smoak quickly agrees to do whatever he so pleases.
