250(ish) Favorite Arrowverse Episodes: Part 4: 175-151

Picked from „Arrow“, „Black Lightning“, „Supergirl“, „Legends of Tomorrow“, „The Flash“, „Barwoman“ Season 1+2 and „Superman & Lois“ Season 1+2. I did consider kicking „Superman & Lois“ of this list, but since it pretended to be part of the Arrowverse for its first two seasons I left it on here.

175. My Name is Oliver Queen (Arrow 3x23)

69, Written by: Greg Berlanti, Andrew Kreisberg, Marc Guggenheim, Jake Coburn, Directed by: John Behring

174. The Calm (Arrow 3x1)

47, Written by: Greg Berlanti, Andrew Kreisberg, Marc Guggenheim, Jake Coburn, Directed by: Glen Winter

"It's just... the rules keep changing. One day, I have to run through time, the next, I'm fighting a telepathic gorilla, and now we're, what? We're chasing down an immortal madman on a rampage against a reincarnated warrior priestess? I just never thought I'd have superpowers and feel more powerless than I ever have in my entire life."

"Why would you risk the lives of your friends and family for two strangers? 206 times I have killed them. What hubris possesses you that makes you think that you can prevent me from doing so again?"

172. Pilot 1+2 (Legends of Tomorrow 1.1-1.2)

1&2, Written by: Marc Guggenheim, Phil Klemmer, Greg Berlanti, Andrew Kreisgberg, Directed by: Glen Winter

"I know it's difficult for you to fathom, but where... when I'm from, the year 2166, you and everyone on this roof aren't just considered heroes... You're legends." "Legends?" "I, um, I hate to nitpick, but doesn't a legend have to be dead?"

"One thing that time travel teaches you is that time changes, people don't."

171. Heritage (Superman & Lois 1x2)

2, Written by: Todd Helbing, Directed by: Lee Toland Krieger

"You have any idea what you just did? You ruined their childhood, Clark. I've seen the toll this life's taken on Lois over the years. She never says anything to you, but I know. Now you're going to put the boys through the same hell?" "This is gonna keep my family together." "No, Clark, It's going to tear it apart."

170. Off with her Head (Batwoman 1x15)

15, Written by: Natalie Abrams, Directed by: Holly Dale

"Red is a very symbolic color. It's the color of love, but it's also the color of passion, courage, war. At one point or another, you're going to have to wrestle with all of these emotions, and what defines your character is how you balance them. So keep me close to your heart, because I'll be thinking of you while I wear mine."

"There was a time, Talia, when aligning yourself with a man like Ricardo Diaz would have been beneath you."

"I do what it takes to survive. Another lesson you seem to have forgotten. I taught you to separate the man from the monster. Instead, you exposed your identity for all the world to see and became the monster you always feared you were."

166. Manhunter (Supergirl 1x17)

17, Written by: Derek Simon, Cindy Lichtman, Rachel Shukert, Directed by: Chris Fisher

"Ancient Greeks had Hades. The Egyptians, Anubis. The Incas, Supay, the lord of the Underworld, god of death. Today, the villagers that live among the ruins of that empire believe that Supay has returned to live amongst them. But this creature is no devil, it is an alien fugitive, the Manhunter."

165. Elongated Journey into the Night (The Flash 4x4)

73, Written By: Sterling Gates, Thomas Pound, Directed By: Tom Cavanagh

"Did I make a mistake back then? Did I cost a good man his life?" "I don't know, Barr. He did break the law. Crossed a line. And you didn't make him do that. And you didn't make him blackmail the mayor. But, maybe Caitlin was right. Everyone who's gone what you, and her, now Dibny's gone through... maybe he deserves a second chance."

164. The Wrath of Rama Khan (Supergirl 5x8)

95, Written by: Lindsay Struman, Jessica Kardos, Directed by: Marcus Stokes

"People make mistakes and they do terrible things. We have to let them do better, bring them back to the light. Otherwise, what's the point in trying to save everyone?"

163. Life Sentence (Arrow 6x23)

138, Written by: Wendy Mercile, Marc Guggenheim, Directed by: James Bamford

"I am the Green Arrow. I realize that I've denied that claim with the same conviction with which I'm speaking now. I have let good people stand accused of things that I've done. Roy Harper is not the Green Arrow. Tommy Merlyn is most certainly not the Green Arrow. These are two names on a long list of people who have given so much and sacrificed everything in the name of my crusade. Some of them gave their lives in the pursuit of one simple objective— to save our city. Star City still needs saving."

162. Truth, Justice and the Amercian Way (Supergirl 1x14)

14, Written by: Michael Grassi, Yahlin Chang, Caitlin Parrish, Directed by: Lexi Alexander

"What I have done is protect this city. This world. Humans understand little about justice. Justice must be absolute. I'd hoped that you'd see justice the same way your mother did. The way I do."

161. Armageddon Part 5 (The Flash 8x5)

156, Written by: Kristen Kim, Directed by: Menhaj Huda

"You don't think I want to see him dead either? 'Cause I do. If I learned one thing being a cop, it's that you can't just protect the people you think are good. You have to protect everyone. That's what heroes do." "I know that." "Do you? A hero is not just in the name, Barry, or in a red suit. It's the choices we make that decide who and what we become. You know that."

160. Anti-Hero (Superman & Lois 2x7)

22, Written by: Max Cunningham, Michael Narducci, Directed by: Elizabeth Henstridge

158. Purgatory (Arrow 8x7)

167, Written by: Rebecca Bellotto, Rebecca Rosenberg, Directed by: James Bamford

"The name of the island they found me on is Lian Yu. It's Mandarin for purgatory. Now I understand why. The memories, the pain, I've never escaped them. They're always with me, a reminder of what I had to endure with only one thought, one goal-- survive. To save the multiverse, I must become something else. To do that, I have to return to where my journey began-- purgatory."

157. Man of Steel (Supergirl 4x3)

68, Written by: Rob Wright, Derek Simon, Directed by: Jesse Warn

"Ben Franklin's fears have come to pass. The modern immigrant cannot assimilate, and it's not a question of desire, it's not a question of culture. It is a question of biology, and from that context... from that context, I should be proud if you were to call me a nativist."

10, Written by: Caroline Dries, Directed by: Jeff Hunt

"Okay, people. Time to recalibrate our gaydar. Batwoman is a lesbian? Not that there's anything wrong with that, but talk to me, Gotham. Whatever happened to politics staying out of our superheroes?"

153. A New World Part 1: Reunions (The Flash 9x10)

181, Written by: Eric Wallace, Thomas Pound, Directed by: Eric Wallace

"You win one battle, Thawne, not the war between us. Neither of us can do that. If you don't walk away tonight, you will lose everything."

"Liar. Don't you know who I am? I have always been the hero. You're the villain, Flash. You're the one who reversed my entire life and dragged me into hell. And that's why you die tonight, by my hand."

152. A Head of Her Time (Legends of Tomororw 5x4)
