Arrow.

Synopsis:
After a violent shipwreck, billionaire playboy Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) was missing and presumed dead for five years before being discovered alive on remote island in the Pacific. When he returns home to Starling City, his devoted mother Moira (Susanna Thompson), much beloved sister Thea (Willa Holland), and best friend Tommy (Colin Donnell) welcome him home, but they sense Oliver has been changed by his ordeal on the island. While Oliver hides the truth about the man he's become, he desperately wants to make amends for the actions he took as the boy he was. Most particularly, he seeks reconciliation with his former girlfriend, Laurel Lance (Katie Cassidy). As Oliver reconciliation with those colest to him, he secretly creates the person of Arrow, a vigilante to right the wrongs of his family, fight the ills of society, and restore Starling City to its former glory. By day, Oliver plays the role a wealthy, carefree and careless philanderer he used to be flanked by his devoted chauffeur/bodyguard, John Diggle(David Ramsey) while carefully concealing the secret identity he turns to under cover of darkness. However, Laurel's father, Detective Quentin Lance (Paul Blackthorne), is determined to arrest the vigilante operating his city. Meanwhile, Oliver's own mother, Moira, knows much more about the deadly shipwreck than she has let on- and is more ruthless than he could ever imagine.
A Twitter friend was totally obsessed with a new series called Arrow, so I just decided to try and watch the first episode to see if I liked it. When I did, it left me speechless. The plot is amazing, and the characters, even if it's a TV series, are really well-built.
I've only seen five episodes, but I think this Wednesday episode 16 will be airing. The show already has a really big audience, and many people are positively commenting on it in social networks.
Have you seen it? If so, did you like it?
