Arrow, where you can miss an episode and still be caught up

When Arrow first came on I was energized every time it aired. I could take them stealing from Batman storylines, but these past seasons seem boring. Last weeks episode I almost entirely skipped. I had some chores to do around the house and would just catch a few mins here and there. By all the posts online and even here it seems I didn't miss much. Hopefully tonight's episode (that I haven't watched yet) will be better. Then again, since they announced Arrow would be ending after a 10 episode run for season 8, I could probably hold off watching it until then.... AND STILL be caught up heh.
