Arrow Season 4 Episode 11 Recap: Blasted from the Past

Fans were treated to a double dose of Felicity on Arrow Season 4 Episode 11 . Watch Arrow Season 4 Episode 11 Online While our paralyzed heroine tried to put on a brave face at home for Oliver (even pushing for the nickname “Hot Wheels”), she struggled with her role on Team Arrow wondering what she brings to the team now that she’s stuck in a wheelchair. This prompted a visit from her younger, very Goth self, someone who invited herself to Felicity’s “pity party.” Felicity 1.0 wasn’t happy with her future self, saying she “wasted” her confidence and strength in order to “play superhero.” OUCH . But Felicity didn’t have a lot of time to sort through her internal problems… because she was needed at work. She had to offer her typical cyber assistance while Oliver, Diggle and company stormed a port being used by an A.R.G.U.S.-hating Shadowspire organization. Haunted by her hallucination, though, Felicity was not up to the task and her mistake briefly got Diggle captured. View Slideshow: 15 Best Shows in CW History: Ranked! Later on, at the loft, Felicity told her fiancé how she felt guilty about this screw up. But Oliver wasn’t hearing it. He tried to comfort his confused partner, only for Goth Felicity to get inside Real Felicity’s head, prompting her to say she can no longer be on the team and basically ordering Oliver to leave. After sparring inside her head with her former self – and after hearing Goth Felicity taunt her about ex-boyfriend Cooper and how she now has a “ringside seat” to the rest of her life – Felicity grew inspired. She wasn’t going down like this! So Felicity wheeled herself into the lair and gave Oliver a speech about how her younger self was filled with anger, too much anger to help anyone. Her condition isn’t Oliver’s fault or her fault or anyone’s fault but one evil main who has an “alliterative name” and who they are “going to stop.” Why? “Because it’s what we do, it’s who we are.” Yeah! You tell ’em, Felicity! At the conclusion of the hour, Felicity burned a photo of that “rebellious brunette hacker who didn’t listen anyone’s rules but her own.” Oliver proceeded to share his own hope for the future, telling the love of his life quite simply: “I’ve seen people speed and shrink and fly, come back from dead…. That is the world we live in now. So I will not stop searching it until we find away to make you walk again.” Go watch Arrow online to get caught up if need be and join us in giving a standing (no pun intended) ovation to Olicity.

Charlie Carver, Popular Teen Wolf Star, Comes Out as Gay

Charlie Carver, a 27-year old actor best known for roles on Teen Wolf and The Leftovers, has confirmed that he is gay. The star made this reveal in a lengthy Instagram post “As a young boy, I knew I wanted to be an actor. I knew I wanted to be a lot of things! I thought I wanted to be a painter, a soccer player, a stegosaurus… But the acting thing stuck,” Carver wrote. He then got to the heart of the topic: “It was around that age that I also knew, however abstractly, that I was different from some of the other boys in my grade. “Over time, this abstract ‘knowing’ grew and articulated itself through a painful gestation marked by feelings of despair and alienation, ending in a climax of saying three words out loud: ‘I am gay.’ “I said them to myself at first, to see how they felt. They rang true, and I hated myself for them. I was twelve. “It would take me a few years before I could repeat them to anyone else, in the meantime turning the phrase over and over in my mouth until I felt comfortable and sure enough to let the words pour out again, this time to my family.” View Slideshow: 36 Celebrities Who Are Out and Proud! Along with his message, Carver shared a photo on social media of the following quote: Be who you needed when you were younger. Carver’s post is long, heartfelt and personal… and it concludes as follows: “So now, let the record show this – I self-identify as gay. And does that really matter anymore? “As a young man, I needed a young man in Hollywood to say that – and without being a dick about it, I owe it to myself, more than anything, to be who I needed when I was younger.” We admire Carver’s courage in coming out and we wish him the best.

Pretty Little Liars Season 6 Poster: What’s Changed?

ABC Family has a secret and it can no longer keep it: The return of Aria, Spencer and company is just a few weeks away! With  Pretty Little Liars Season 6 set to resume on January 12, the cable network has unveiled the first official poster for the back half of the latest season. And this promotional material is especially interesting because the series will jump ahead FIVE YEARS upon its return. What does the poster tell us? Well… Spencer has bangs. And Aria looks to be very mad at Allison for some reason. There’s also dirt pouring out of the car, which can only mean there’s another grave storyline on the way. See what we did there? As for where we’ll find the Liars in five years? Thanks to a recent ABC Family special, we know the following: Hanna will be engaged! (To Caleb? Don’t be so sure.) Aria will have a new boyfriend, though Ezra will still be in her life. Ezra, meanwhile, will have found a new girlfriend, but that relationship ends in “very violent” fashion. Spencer will be working on Capitol Hil. Toby will be single, but many will want to mingle with him after he inherits A LOT of money due to the house burning down. Emily will have dropped out of school and will have the “biggest secret” of all the Liars, according to star Shay Mitchell. Allison will be married… to Charlotte’s doctor! Remember that you can visit TV Fanatic to watch Pretty Little Liars online at any time in order to catch up prior to January 12. Check out the poster above; react to the changes to come; and then go back in time with this gorgeous cast below:

The first new show of the fall to be picked up for a second season has been announced. And the winner is… Wicked City! Just kidding. That ABC drama is abysmal.

The drama, which stars Jaimie Alexander and Sullivan Stapleton, is averaging 12.7 million viewers and a 3.7 rating in the adults 18-49 demographic, according NBC, making it the top-rated new series of the fall in the latter category Gushed/said Jennifer Salke, President, NBC Entertainment, via statement. “We are over the moon with the success of Blindspot, and want to thank our producers and amazing cast for creating one of the most riveting shows on television. “Jaimie and Sullivan have done an amazing job of ratcheting up the tension each week in trying to unravel the mystery of Jane’s tattoos.” The breakout hit airs Mondays at 10/9c on NBC and you can always watch Blindspot online via our friends at TV Fanatic. And if you’re looking to place a bet on the second new show to earn a second season, let’s just say you could do a lot worse than Quantico on ABC. View Slideshow: 35 Highest Paid TV Stars of 2015

Kris Jenner Attempts to Cash in On Lamar Odom, Pisses Off Khloe Kardashian

The good news is, Lamar Odom is on the mend after the overdose that nearly claimed his life. The bad news is, he’s still enmeshed with the Kardashian family, which means everything he does is viewed as a possible source of TV ratings. We’ve already heard about Kris Jenner’s attempts to cash in on Odom’s overdose , but now she’s apparently taking things to the next level – and seriously pissing off Khloe Kardashian in the process. According to Radar Online, Kris recently presented Lamar with a contract which would ensure that footage of his recovery could be used on upcoming episodes of Keeping Up With the Kardashians. “Khloe confronted Kris after she found out that her mother tried to get Lamar to sign the contract in order to be able to use the footage that has been shot for next season’s show,” says an insider. “Kris knows that that having this be a huge part of Season 11 would be great for ratings because viewers will definitely tune in. Khloe thinks that Kris is being completely irrational about this.” Yeah, we’re gonna have to go ahead and side with Khloe on this one. Unfortunately, it seems everyone’s favorite Kardashian doesn’t quite know what she’s up against: “She told Kris that Lamar is not a part of the show any more and neither she, nor him, will make money off of this.” says the source. “But in the end, Kris knows that she is going to win this fight because she calls the shots.” Seriously, Khloe, think this one through. Standing between Kris and ratings is like taking a side of beef away from a lion. View Slideshow: Khloe Kardashian & Lamar Odom: Romance Rewind … Then Unwind

Jon Stewart Signs Massive Deal With HBO

Fans of Jon Stewart need not worry that they won’t see him as much since he left The Daily Show in August (having hosted since 1999). According to TVLine , Stewart inked a four-year production deal with HBO that includes a “short-form digital content” focused on current events through Stewart’s “unique prism,” which he will both produce and star in. The deal also includes “a first-look option for other film and TV” projects. “Jon Stewart led a revolution that changed the face of TV comedy on The Daily Show,” HBO president Michael Lombardo said in a statement. “He graced our network nearly 20 years ago, so we’re thrilled to welcome back his immense talents in this next chapter of his career.” Stewart also released a statement on the deal.  “I’m so excited to be working with Richard [Plepler], Michael and the entire HBO family,” he said. “Appearing on television 22 minutes a night clearly broke me. I’m pretty sure I can produce a few minutes of content every now and again.” This isn’t the first time Stewart has worked with HBO; he had a recurring role on the Larry Sanders Show , hosted George Carlin: 40 Years of Comedy , as well as his own stand-up show, Jon Stewart: Unleavened .

George R.R. Martin Teases Fans: Which Hated Game Of Thrones Character is "Still Alive"?

There was one question on the mind of millions of fans after the Game of Thrones Season 5 finale : Is Jon Snow really dead ? We’ll have to wait a few months for that answer, but George R.R. Martin – ever cantankerous, yet always happy to engage with fans – has already dropped a bombshell regarding the fate of a different character. During a recent online chat sesh, Martin was asked if the daughter-torching megalomaniac Stannis Baratheon is still alive.  His answer? “In my books? Alive, beyond a doubt.” We know what you’re thinking: “So what? The show departs from the books all the time. I totally saw Stannis get killed by Brienne of Tarth.” To which we respond: 1. You have a bit of an attitude problem, ya know that? and 2. Did you really see Brienne deliver that death blow? Watch the scene again: Stannis Baratheon Death Scene Would a show that’s famous for grisly deaths really deny us the sight of such a reviled character getting his head lopped off? Need we remind you that the dude allowed his own daughter to be burned at the stake just one episode prior? At this point, we’re thinking the smart money is on Stannis still being alive on the show. Of course, if he was captured by Ramsay Bolton, he’s probably wishing he was dead. Watch Game of Thrones online at TV Fanatic to hold yourself over until the premiere of season 6.
