Oliver died twice in crisis and Diggle failed to say goodbye but now he finally says goodbye to him after everything they went through in Arrow. This is the best episode this season!!!
John Diggle did seem to get cheated out of his chance to say goodbye to Oliver, back during the Crisis event. I'm glad Oliver and John got to give each other proper send offs, like true friends should.
I love how at peace Oliver feels. There's no more fighting, no more pain, no more sorrow. He's just watching over the entire multiverse he gave his life to create, counting down the days until he can see Felicity again.
@@TheImmortalBloodwolf well, in the end of arrow felicity asks monitor to take her to where oliver is and moniter does that. That means that felicity dies and meets oliver in the after life. So, no...they do meet again but it will be a while.
Yeah, it'll be sad to part with him again after his businesss is done, but, saying goodbye to those who'll leave you can bring closure and peace of mind.
It's easier to say goodbye to someone you thought died but is in fact still alive. So now instead of feeling guilt and being depressed, now that he knows Oliver in fact breathes and is still alive, Diggle can pick himself back up
Me too. I missed them so much. The ending of Arrow is still sad for me because I really wanted Oliver to live his life, not become the Spectre during a crossover. I’m glad at least one wrong from that garbage has now been righted.
This was the perfect way to wrap up unresolved things that went down with Arrow final season without screwing it up. It was done perfectly and it felt like an episode of Arrow.
Don't get me wrong Arrow and the Flash we're My shows 💯, early seasons we're insane, but they did go downhill with the last season's, really struggled to get through and episode of arrow in the last, but I think the last season's of the flash we're worse 😂🤣
"Your brightest days are ahead of you..." This may be the last time we see Diggle of E-1/Prime in the Arrowverse, but at least this somewhat gives hope that he will become Green Lantern one day.
this is why arrow was the best show in the arrowverse… not only did it start off the entire thing, but i don’t think the series ever really went downhill. when it had an episode that wasn’t as good, it picked itself back up. they brought back oliver and created on of the best episodes of the flash that i have seen in a long time.
@@manikn4585 that's true, personally though I feel the Flash has been consistently on par even if you don't like the special effects I honestly haven't noticed a drop in quality either story or special effects. The Flash has been my favorite show since it's birth.
Diggle is one of the few people Oliver willingly hugs and just embraces it. That "I love you" broke me it was so necessary after Dig not being able to say goodbye to him. And that little mention of Felicity 😭😭😭 I'm dead. I miss them.
I love this scene. Dig finally got the closure he deserved. Digs mission was always to save Oliver so him not being there when he died was horrible. It was compounded by the fact that Oliver gave him back his daughter (that Barry erased) yet he never got to say goodbye or thank him. Plus they continued to cement olicity’s soulmatism and that he will get to be with his wife again. He’s able to watch over his family in the meantime.
"You're my family Oliver, I'm just glad I get to say goodbye to you" 😭💔 I fell off watching the flash after S5, but came back to watch this & I'm happy I did, it was worth it.🥺
This scene was good and seeing Oliver and Diggle finally saying goodbye to each other was a nice moment. Both have gone through so much over the years and it was just perfect.
Preaching to the coir! They had such great chemistry from the get go. I 🖤 everytime Diggle put Ollie back in his place. He would've never become as awesome a Green Arrow if it weren't for John!
Danielle Panabaker did an amazing job directing this episode. I hope she gets the opportunity to direct more after this season is over. Many actors/actresses who managed to follow and then got to direct themselves don't seem to get opportunities to direct elsewhere all that often. This applies to Laura Vandervoot (Smallville, WB), Caity Lotz (Arrow, Legends, CW), and others. The only actress as of late who moved mostly into directing and acts occasionally is Lea Thompson - but she learned to direct after her big movie, Back to the Future a long time ago.
Erica Durance(Lois Lane) went on to do Saving Hope from 2012 to 2017 and was the main character of that series. She was a producer on the show and did direct an episode.
He is... just from the greatest of distance. He has the blessing of still being able to watch over them and as he says to Dig, his and Felicity's destinies are written. We see in Arrow's series finale they are eventually reunited.
Can someone explain to me how William and Mia are adults in this timeline three years after Oliver's death? I thought Mia went back to 2040. They should be with Felicity as children at this point. Right? Or do I need to rewatch the last season of Arrow. Maybe I'm just forgetting.
Really gonna miss Oliver queen ,and diggy friendship their have best bromance in the arrowverse it nice to see John finally got closure from Oliver like he is there for him💚.
from my understanding Stephen had one request and he never said what it was and he had part in it. my guess the request was this one scene and than of course the update on his kids of course. i got the impression he talked it over with the writers on what he wanted the episode to be.
Idk why this made me tear up that much. Same with him and Barry. I was still a late teenager when arrow was coming out, now I'm a 30yo man. I grew up with these dudes. I don't watch flash anymore but had to watch this.
It felt like they were in a way breaking the 4th wall and talking as actors too, about how their characters didn't get to say goodbye. Truly needed & well executed!
It was sweet that Diggle got to say goodbye to his best friend this time since he didn’t in arrow they had a great bromance in the Arrowverse it was good to see them together for the final time 💚💚💚🏹🏹🏹!!!!!
Who would have thought one episode would be better than the whole season up until now seeing Oliver again has made this a great season and made me happy 🥲😢
Of all the turbulence this season, this episode was definitely the shining moment. I was so glad to see Ollie, Dig and Wally again, seeing them all together with Barry and Team Flash certainly rolled back the years and it was especially satisfying seeing the closure Oliver got with both Barry and Diggle, it made me tear up a bit as well haha.
Finally they get closure, you know back from where I am india, we have a saying, "Baap, Baap hi hota hai" It basically means The Original will always be the original! There is a reason we call it the Arrowverse, you could never end The flash without this, this episode just made forgive them for the last 3 seasons
I didn’t know this would hit so hard. I’m so glad they did this. After investing so many years into these characters, it’s still not quite connecting that I’ll never see them again….
It was more than 10 years ago... I still remember coming back from school to watch Arrow on my family computer with the download speed of 150kB/s. Goodbye Oliver, I can't imagine my life without Arrow.
Seeing Oliver again was so special and moving especially with John i miss this two together , finally John said goodbye to his beloved friend and brother my whole body Shaked from the inside one of the most moving scene of this episode , Oliver will always be missed , i miss ARROW so much , one of the most successful show ever.
All in all this episode was the best of the entire season. Great to have Oliver back and kicking ass. Grant and Steve work well together. Thought I did find it odd that Joe wasn't at his birthday..
with how many times the arrowverse timeline has been messed with and will be messed with, I doubt it, I really doubt it, that was a pilot for the canaries show that wasn't picked and as I said that future has probably already changed.
When I was younger I was obsessed with the Arrowverse. I was hooked on Arrow and Flash. After the crisis crossover I lost interest. Seeing the two OGs that started it all be able to say goodbye and close the universe they helped create was emotional. Arrow will always be one of my favourite shows.
ima grown ass man and still this one hits so hard , i broke down. really love this show the arrow verse not just the story and action but the lesson , it is always focusing the importance of Family, not just bound by blood but by bonds and Love
Oh wow! I stopped watching flash a long time ago. Now i think i need to start watching again. Oh my God. I used to watch dc tv series when i was in school. This reunion just brought became so many memories of this series
This made me really emotional seeing John being able to finally get the chance to say goodbye to Oliver!! Also Words can’t express how happy I was to see Oliver and John reunite one last time
I still hate how olivers death was handled a battle from off screen and not even on their own show then the last few episodes dont even feature the characters we were with for the whole show. Plus it just felt like it got lost in the scope of the cross over. This moment did make up for it somewhat though.

Exactly i was like…Oliver died twice and…diggle didn’t get a proper goodbye
he died three times because his body was killed by the antimonitor
DEFINITELY BEST EPISODE EVER!!!!
Yes, Indeed.
This wasn’t just díggle and Oliver saying goodbye, this was David and Stephen saying goodbye to us one last time 😭
Don't worry, James Gunn might cast then as Green Arrow and Green Lantern in the future of DCU
@@alimirza6941that would be a dream come true
Lets just pray for it

I love how at peace Oliver feels. There's no more fighting, no more pain, no more sorrow. He's just watching over the entire multiverse he gave his life to create, counting down the days until he can see Felicity again.
But there destiny has been written??? I thought that meant then never meet again???

Me too. I missed them so much. The ending of Arrow is still sad for me because I really wanted Oliver to live his life, not become the Spectre during a crossover. I’m glad at least one wrong from that garbage has now been righted.
Broke down laughing I did
Anyone else heard Oliver's whisper of " I love you John"? That was so beautiful and it was honestly really needed 😭
My fave Bromance ever!!! 🥲
It wasn't a whisper I heard it🥹🥹
Stephen Amell improvised that line!
Stephen was actually breaking down crying during that line
Digs reply "I love you 2 brother"
I didn’t know how much I really needed this until now! So great seeing Oliver and Diggle again!
frr
This was the perfect way to wrap up unresolved things that went down with Arrow final season without screwing it up. It was done perfectly and it felt like an episode of Arrow.
Same
The writing was fantastic in this episode and the cgi was good too

"I'm just happy I get to say goodbye to you, this time." I think we all feel the same way as Diggle. This was my favorite part of the episode
"Your brightest days are ahead of you..."
This may be the last time we see Diggle of E-1/Prime in the Arrowverse, but at least this somewhat gives hope that he will become Green Lantern one day.
I hope so too
maybe in another earth !
Maybe in Superman & Lois he’s already been on that show and it’s apparently on a separate earth now from the rest of the arrowverse
@@Nutroplix that would be weird tho because it's not the same Diggle that started the Green Lantern arc in the first place
Comic continuation maybe.

Ngl it went downhill the fanbase can agree but overall nothing near as all the other shows including flash
Season 4? Season 3 was also meh but got a lot better by the end but almost the entire Season 4 was lame.
@@dunkbuscusgaming7016 yeah but the season 5 comeback was insane
@@manikn4585 that's true, personally though I feel the Flash has been consistently on par even if you don't like the special effects I honestly haven't noticed a drop in quality either story or special effects.
The Flash has been my favorite show since it's birth.
S4 was the only time the show went downhill.
I’m proud that John finally got to say goodbye to Oliver one last time
Seeing Oliver in the flesh seems absolutely unreal. When Diggle says "you're my family Oliver", it is just surreal, my eyes are damp
Diggle is one of the few people Oliver willingly hugs and just embraces it. That "I love you" broke me it was so necessary after Dig not being able to say goodbye to him. And that little mention of Felicity 😭😭😭 I'm dead. I miss them.
Man this scene hits home, brothers saying goodbye to one another
“Brightest days” HE SAID THE THING!
Best Bromance in the Arrowverse
Fax besides Barry and Oliver
And Barry and Cisco
From older seasons
Couldn't agree more 🥲
Damn straight
Oliver breaking down when he told John he loves him was the closure I needed. I miss the both of them so much.
I love this scene. Dig finally got the closure he deserved. Digs mission was always to save Oliver so him not being there when he died was horrible. It was compounded by the fact that Oliver gave him back his daughter (that Barry erased) yet he never got to say goodbye or thank him.
Plus they continued to cement olicity’s soulmatism and that he will get to be with his wife again. He’s able to watch over his family in the meantime.

Elizabeth Henstridge, who played Jemma Simmons in all 7 seasons of Agents of SHIELD, has directed a couple of Superman & Lois episodes.
@@ethanp1348 That is great. I am glad there are some new younger people moving into the directing world!

@@cherylebbs2079 had no idea she directed one of those episodes. Has nothing to do with the modern Arroweverse but I get your point.
@@Buc_Stops_Here sorry, I wasn’t thinking when I posted that.
After 4 years we finally see the GOAT Oliver back on screen again 😭
"now all of your brightest days are ahead of you." See what they did there!!!
THIS IS THE BEST EPISODE IN THE FLASH IN THE LAST 3 SEASONS
the best scene too
Beautiful moment. These two deserved this moment together, since they didn’t get it in Crisis. Amazing episode
It’s very great seeing Diggle and Oliver again. 😊😊😊😊😊
I wish we could've seen Oliver at least looking in on Felicity & his kids ❤
Right
@@SPDRM it's a flash episode, their own characters are already ruining it so 🤷🏽♀️

I was looking for this😃
My 2 favorite Arrowverse characters. Might have to tune back into ‘The Flash’ for this.
This part so emotional these two my favorite friendship in the entire arrowverse
Legendary is all I can say I'm so happy for them both honestly this episode was fantastic 😢😢😢😢
Love the nod to the green lantern oath “your brightest days are ahead of you”

Goodbye Oliver, I can't imagine my life without Arrow.
this episode brings a lot of closure to the oliver and diggle and barry.... i just love this episode more than the rest in season 9 so far
Oliver's fighting skills are just on another level compared to batwoman's
This is what brotherly love looks like
All of your BRIGHTEST DAYS are ahead of you. Wow what a line.
"All of your brightest days are ahead of you" I see what yall did there
Best Duo of Arrowverse
I'm not crying. You're crying. My heart tho. Oliver and Diggle had the best relationship
Hands down the best episode of this season
Best scence its means oliver is still alive but after some years he goes to the afterlife with felicity and gives up being the spectre
Diggle finally got to say goodbye 😢
Technically, he not dead, he just became a God or Presence in Arrowverse
Didnt expect that the best scene in the FLASH final season would look like this...
Seeing Oliver again was so special and moving especially with John i miss this two together , finally John said goodbye to his beloved friend and brother my whole body Shaked from the inside one of the most moving scene of this episode , Oliver will always be missed , i miss ARROW so much , one of the most successful show ever.
So like when Oliver and Barry/ or Diggle have moments I get a lil emotional. Looks so real and genuine 😢
James Gun NEEDS Stephen Amell as the Spectre in the DCU!
I’m not going to lie I did teared up
😢
That's why he's uncle Diggle.
Danielle Panabaker understood the assignment
The "I love you John." Was one of the most hard-hitting things ever said by Oliver Queen.
All in all this episode was the best of the entire season. Great to have Oliver back and kicking ass. Grant and Steve work well together. Thought I did find it odd that Joe wasn't at his birthday..
Loved seeing the Spector in this
That hug... Barry would be so jealous.
i haven't watched the arrowverse since arrow s4 why is this making me emotional😭
William is still missing in the future tho. 😢
Definitely
That story is long gone

this show is still running 😮
Those were real tears…lol
I searched up salmon ladder and the first video that showed up was David Ramsey climbing it on the set of arrow
Oliver took this episode to the next level
The reunion we always needed
They sure have come a long way from the Rich Boy Vigilante sneaking away from his Bodyguard ❤
1:27 = hey who left the onions here 😭😢❤
This episode was EVERYTHING. I definitely shed a few thug tears and am currently rewatching Arrow❤❤❤❤
I will I admit I did cry in this scene it was a very good moment that diggle got to say goodbye this time.
I don't know if i'm the only one who picked up on oliver's line about brightest days

As much as I love this Bromance but I need to see Diggle use his lantern ring. Like fr CW hinted at it at the end of crisis.
1:09 You knew what you were doing CW.
Just can't get over arrow
even in the last moments they are hinting green lantern with that " brightest days" XD
