Olicity fans will be smiling as much as Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) and Oliver (Stephen Amell) when the superhero hit returns for Season 4 with a new attitude in tow. “We’re eyeing a lighter tone,” executive producer Marc Guggenheim teases, admitting the show has been “very dark” since the middle of Season 2. But given this new couple’s penchant for keeping secrets and finding trouble, Guggenheim confirms that things in Starling City won’t be as bright as Arrow’s offshoot. “It’s never going to be The Flash!”

Arrow, Season premiere, Wednesday, Oct. 7, 8/7c, The CW
