The season finale promised to change all that though, shaking up the entire concept of the show by taking our heroine, erstwhile FBI profiler Elizabeth Keen, and making her the last thing she'd ever expect she would be, one of the FBI's most wanted.

It’s September! And that means it’s time for the new TV season.

The Top 10 Episodes Of Arrow So Far

It wouldn’t be 100 per cent accurate to put the credit (or the blame) for the impressive slate of superhero shows on our TVs on Arrow, but the success of the CW’s adaptation of the Emerald Archer probably has something to do with the fact that during the 2015/16 season there will be over a dozen comic book inspired series across the television dial.

It's not too often that The Blacklist surprises, but tonight's adventure, titled "Karakurt" after its primary antagonist, managed to do just that.
