What We Leave Behind strikes a careful balance. Go to Full Review Molly Templeton Reactor 08/24/2018
What makes "What We Leave Behind" such an affecting episode is that all of those things are horribly, painfully believable, and have been building for a long time. Go to Full Review Carissa Pavlica TV Fanatic 08/03/2018

What We Leave Behind is not a bad episode. In fact, it could even be said it's Arrow's best episode this year, not that that's a ringing endorsement. Go to Full Review Tyler McCarthy Den of Geek 07/31/2018
3/5
