When The CW ordered a pilot for a pitched "Smallville" spin-off spotlighting Superman's fellow legendary DC Comics protagonist Green Arrow, it was made known that "Arrow" wouldn't star the young Oliver Queen of over 70 "Smallville" episodes, Justin Hartley. Now, it can be confirmed: as reported by Deadline, Queen/Green Arrow will be instead played by Stephen Amell.

You might adore Sarah Palin. You might hate her. You might think she's the plain-spoken conscience America needs. You might think she proves conclusively how dangerous power can be when placed in the hands of someone seemingly too out-there to be trusted. You can't argue that she captivates.

And once more, New Jersey must repeat itself: we completely disown "Jersey Shore." Only this time, things get a little messy in the legal sense.
