I think Green Arrow's lack of popularity is a big reason why the show is so good.
They kept the origin of being stranded on an island for x amount of years, but they have changed a lot of his story haven't they? There isn't really any hardcore fan base that is going to get pissed off by what happens to certain characters. I think that's a definite plus for the show.
Also Arrow is probably slowly turning Green Arrow into a Main Eventer for DC. I would think they the popularity of the character had grown over the past 2 years.
