Are you watching Arrow? Because you need to be. It's thrilling, mysterious, and most of all, totally sexy. Stephen Amell plays a former billionaire playboy by day and a master archer/crime-fighter at night. He's frequently shirtless and usually doing some form of shockingly difficult pull-ups. Season six of The CW's hit superhero show is currently airing, so allow me to persuade you to do what you should've done years ago and start watching. If you're already a fan, you'll appreciate this even more! Once you're done, check out all the pictures of Amell looking sexy in character.

Shirtless Pull-Ups and More Reasons That Arrow Is TV's Sexiest Show

Meet Oliver. He's a rich playboy who returned home after five years stranded on an island.

He gets into trouble, but what else can you expect from a vigilante who spends his nights battling crime?

He's got a great smile.

And he looks ridiculously good shirtless.

His secret? These completely INSANE pull-ups.

Oh, you want to see that from another angle? Sure.

He also does them upside down, because of course.

That's his tech genius partner (and potential love interest) (sorry, we won't spoil anything!), Felicity, watching him.

Pretty much all of Oliver's friends are totally cut.

Like Digg, his bodyguard/best friend.

And then there's Roy. He used to be a small-time criminal, but now he's on the good team.

He also looks great shirtless.

Though, he needed more time to perfect his arrow game.

Anyway, back to Oliver.

He's a serious guy, but sometimes he gets silly.

His specialty is shooting arrows with incredible accuracy.

He uses it to take down the bad men of Starling City.

His love life is very complicated.

Like, really, very complicated.

Now he's with Felicity, hopefully for good.

They run away together at one point, but of course, Oliver is drawn back to Starling City.

He loses a lot (like his money and his mom), but he's still standing.

He almost has to become the new Ra's al Ghul, but he gets out of it.

He was about to turn into the Green Arrow, which is totally different.

Oh, and sometimes he hangs out with The Flash (aka Barry Allen aka another person you'll start crushing on).

They're pretty cute, no?

Are you still on the edge about watching?

Do you need to see this one more time?

Honestly, you just can't say "no" to this face.
