    I had about the last 10 episodes accumulated on the PVR and watched them within a few days. Watching them all back-to-back like that was a great way to finish the season. I'm looking forward to Season 2!

    Yea, I watched the first couple live and recorded it all season, and watch them all straight through in a week, right after the last episode aired. I thought it was great seeing the entire season Marathon style.

    Did the same thing with recording Defiance all season long, be watching it soon, but, not as excited about Defiance. I hope I'll enjoy it, but, I'm certainly not counting on it.

    I know what you mean. I've watched the first two episodes of Defiance and have my doubts. The rest are sitting on my PVR so I'll give a few more episodes a go and see if my opinion changes.

    According to The Wrap, we will be seeing Black Canary next season. It won't be Laural Lance though.

    The article goes on to imply that the character will be Dinah Drake.

    ETA: Turns out they are making Arrow action figures. These were on display at Comic-Con:

    I was hoping that Laurel would become Black Canary and I'm sure the actress who plays her thought the same. Oh well.

    Well casting someone else as Black Canary and then keeping Laurel on the show would seem to make no sense. This show is also getting pretty female heavy which I have no problem with. Now can we please get the Question on this show.

    Yeah, that does seem a bit strange. Unless they have her take up the mantle of Black Canary after her tragic demise.

    Also, I would love to see The Question on screen. It was one of my favourite comics in the 80s.

    Ironically, I think if they tried to do The Question some might think the character is a rip off of Rorschach from Watchmen.

    Didn't they make a point on the show of mentioning Laurel's middle name was Dinah?

    Hmmm, interesting. The story about Lotz being Black Canary seemed weird since they've pretty clearly implied from the beginning that Laurel was going to eventually become Black Canary. This definitely makes a lot more sense. Sounds like someone heard that she was heard was related to BC, and then thought that meant she was her.

    Let's get something clear here: Kreisberg didn't debunk The Wrap's report; what he did is clarify that Caity Lotz's character isn't going to SUPPLANT Laurel as the Canary. The fact that he specifically mentioned what they did with Deathstroke tells me that they're likely going to do something similar here, either taking a character from the wider DC mythos who's not typically associated with the Black Canary moniker and associating said character with said moniker, or else creating an original character with whom to associate the moniker, and then using this person - as played by Caity Lotz - as part of Laurel's 'hero's journey' from lawyer to costumed superhero.

    IOW, Laurel is still going to be the Black Canary at some point, but they're not going to wait to introduce the character.
