Honestly? They could probably use her dance background and throw some capoeira into the fight scenes.

I hope Oliver gets to explain to Laurel where Sarah has been all this time.

Because I didn't realize Caity Lotz was this awesome.

And with that, you can see why She's Black Canary... and she's officially now the female Amell.

she throws down. Kudos + 217354

The reason they hired a new actress is because the one they hired for the pilot/season one wouldn't have been in the show until now (you know, because they planned it that way) and it would've been dumb to actually hire her on a long-term contract to not have her do anything (and pay her) for most of a season.

And just because a character comes back from the dead doesn't automatically make it a retcon, especially when we don't even see her actually die. If you thought that Sara was dead for good and her coming back is a twist so crazy that they obviously didn't plan it from the beginning then you must not watch a lot of TV, because I'm pretty sure most people saw this coming from Day 1.

Well it was more like a 50/50 chance. I doubt most people saw the last season finale coming.

I do think they planned for this though.

The CW has announced another DC comic show in development, this time its Hourman but instead of the regular comic book version of the character (Rex Tyler, a chemist who creates Miraclo which is a drug that gives him superpowers for exactly one hour) they're giving him the ability to see one hour into the future.

They already did this for an episode of Deep Space 9. It doesn't really need to be done again.

I have really mixed feelings about the thought of them adding superpowers to this show. It doesn't need it, it does just fine as its own little Nolanesque piece of deliciousness. Which is so strange considering I went into Arrow thinking what a shame it was that they weren't making a Smallville spinoff with Justin Hartley. (Oh god how much worse would that have been than what we ended up getting.)

I think it has more to do with implying that an episode of Star Trek Deep Space Nine is somehow the be-all-and-end-all of any given sci-fi or fantasy concept.

They need to do a reverse switch, in that Laurel is the one who dies off and the current Black Canary is now the sole surviving sister from their family.

If anyone has to die at all, that is. But it seemed like you all have said it was bound to happen regardless.

The show has no obligation to stick to the comics like that. Hell, has the name "Dinah" even been mentioned on the show?

Yes. It's her full name and also her mother's first name.

The implication is she uses her middle name because she's named after her mother.

Alright. Even still, the world won't end if this version of Laurel/Dinah never becomes Black Canary. Some of the show's best plot turns have come from breaking from the comics, like with the use of the Merlyns and Slade mentoring Oliver on the island.

I'm a little behind in the thread, but the only way I can see that Hourman show working is if it was something like the adaptation of Steven King's Dead Zone show that ran for a while with Anthony Michael Hall. More of a suspense/drama thing as he tries to figure out how to change the future to fix things each episode, instead of an all-out superhero action type thing.

Yeah, that's what I would guess. Early Edition, the CBS Kyle Chandler show from the mid-late 90s, also had a similar premise.
