Five reasons why 'Arrow' season 7 is better off without Oliver-Felicity relationship drama

Following the events of the last season, after Oliver's vigilantism was exposed and he was forced to cut a deal with the FBI, the real Green Arrow has been locked away in prison.
PUBLISHED SEP 26, 2018

If not for Stephen Amell's disturbingly charming looks, Arrow fans might have run out of reasons to keep watching the long-running CW series. Spanning over six seasons, the adaptation of DC's vigilante comics has featured almost everything that one can probably expect from a superhero series. From ousting Oliver Queen's alter identity to the city to introducing one catastrophe after another - the plot twists have been endless. 

And yet I am excited and actually anticipating the premiere of 'Arrow' season 7.

One of the main reason being the removal of Amell's superhero from the active narrative. Following the events of the last season, after Oliver's vigilantism was exposed and he was forced to cut a deal with the FBI, the real Green Arrow has been safely locked away in prison - leaving Star City to the mercy of the remaining team and crime boss Ricardo Diaz.
