Arrow Why?


Why, do you think, didn't the writers play with the obvious chemistry between Nancy and George C? They lit up the screen during last night's episode, and they had many great scenes together after that through out the season... Why didn't they ever send them on a date or anything though? I think it would've been interesting to see.
(I don't count Jo pretending to be George's date at the high school reunion as an actual date!)

Jo: Why would Tootie do something like that?

Blair: WHY? I know why. To make a fool of Blair Warner, that's why.

Jo: You don't need Tootie for that.

Teddy: You all set for tomorrow night?
Jinny: I have my bullet proof vest polished if that's what you mean.
Teddy: Come on, Jinny.
Jinny: Oh, yes. Actually... I bought a dress.
Teddy: You did?
Jinny: There is no guarantee, however, that I am going to wear it.
Teddy: So, uh... I don't know. What else did you buy?
Jinny: How do you know I bought you anything for your birthday? Maybe I plan on knitting you a sweater or... give you something much more organic.
Teddy: Well, you do give good organic.

Teddy: What's this dress look like anyway?
Jinny: Oh, yeah, OK. Low cut, skin tight, animal print, ruffle at the bottom. Don't you have lawyering to do?

Teddy: Be honest with me, not my parents!
Jinny: All right, fine. You want honesty? Why don't you let me tell you a little bit about my family? See, I never really had a birthday party unless you wanna count my 15th, when my father showed up for cake, plastered in his underwear! Oh... yeah, by the way, my mom couldn't make it that year either because, well, sadly, six months earlier she blew her brains out!!!!!
Teddy: Jinny, my God.
Jinny: As for my brother, ugh... yeah, John... see, he just doesn't like you unless your American, white, and straight... and for me, a few weeks ago when I had that nut case after me... yeah, I had to make a little list, of all the guys that I've slept with in the last two years. I couldn't remember some of their names.
Teddy: Stop.
Jinny: Ya know what? This is who I am, this is my family!!!! Come on, it's your turn. Go ahead, flash that all-American, prep school, choir boy smile and you tell me that it doesn't matter!

A day with Blair is like walking up San Juan Hill. Every time you turn around she's yelling CHARGE!

Agreed, I think the writers really missed the boat there. Although I love the episode where Jo goes with George to his reunion, and pretends to be a duchess. Even better is when she tells George's potential girlfriend why she's about to dump him ("He's a commoner. I'll lose my castle, my title. All the other duchesses will make fun of me.")

It seemed to me as though they were hinting at the possibility of romance between those two at the end of the episode. Maybe they were thinking of starting something but then they opted not to go that way. Or maybe they knew that he wasn't going to be around long so they just didn't bother. All I'm saying is, it looked to me like they were thinking of it in the ep. last night. Obviously they changed their minds.

I agree TVAddict, they were OBVIOUSLY hinting at it, I just don't understand why they didn't go through with it. I would've loved to have seen it, since all the other girls were crushing on him it would've been neat to see how they reacted when they found out Jo was with him.
..Even Ms. G picked up on the fact George liked Jo!
