Is ‘Arrow’ On Tonight? Season 6 Return Date Revealed

“Arrow” Season 6 is officially on holiday hiatus. The CW superhero show is taking a break for the winter, but the show will be back soon.

On Thursday, Jan. 18 at 9 p.m. EST, Oliver and his team will return in “Arrow” Season 6, episode 10.

It might be a smaller group of superheroes in the midseason premiere, however. In the fall finale, Oliver/Green Arrow (Stephen Amell) was told that someone went on the record with the FBI and confirmed that the mayor was the Green Arrow. Evidence led him to believe it was Dinah/Black Canary (Juliana Harkavy), but it was actually Rene/Wild Dog (Rick Gonzalez). The FBI threatened to take his daughter away, so Rene went on the record.

While Oliver kicked Rene off the team, the others realized that he had been spying on them. Dinah and Curtis/Mr. Terriffic (Echo Kellum) decided they had to quit too. They couldn’t deal with Oliver not trusting them. Now it’s back to the original Team Arrow lineup.

The first week of hiatus won’t even include a rerun. The CW is airing the iHeartRadio Jingle Ball 2017 special from 8 p.m. EST until 9:30 p.m. EST. An episode of “Whose Line Is It Anyway?” will fill the second half of the “Arrow” timeslot.

When “Arrow” returns with new episodes in 2018, the show will welcome back another superhero: Arsenal. Colton Haynes is officially making his return as the scarlet archer, also known as Roy Harper. As previously reported, he will show up in Season 6, episode 15 when Oliver needs help with something major.

Haynes shared his excitement on Instagram with a collection of photos from his original run on “Arrow.” He started on the show halfway through first season, but he left at the end of Season 3. He returned for just an episode in Season 4, but his Season 6 return won’t be permanent either.

Still, it sounds like his short return will be a big story. “We are SO SO EXCITED to welcome @ColtonLHaynes back home to #Arrow. We can’t wait for the fans to see what we have planned,” the official “Arrow” writers Twitter account teased.

Haynes’ arc on “Arrow” should start airing in February.
