I find it very funny how people suddenly like Laurel now and want her back lol. I was her biggest supporter in season's 1 and 2 and remember them bashing her as well as season three when she first became Canary. Now that she is dead they suddenly want her back and she's the best lol. I find that funny.
shareWhat support for Laurel?
I am a hater and I am glad she was gone. I was so upset when she appeared but luckily she was just Black Siren. That is fine, as I like the actress.
I am happy there is a new BC in town
What are you talking about. She's always been polarizing. There was always a big amount of hate and love for her. Worse when it became a shipper thing.
The Emperor has no clothes.
they are talking about in the show and team arrow's reaction. I think, cause thats what I notice.
shareI was talking about Team Arrow's reaction yes. But I was also talking about certain fans that want Laurel back after bashing her. There is another board that is supportive of Laurel and here it's not supportive.
sharehi to you too poison ivy
Do you mind if I have a piece of your thigh? It would complement this fine '76 Shiraz
You're working on a flawed premise, that all the people that want her back now are the same ones that wanted her gone in the earlier seasons. I'm sure there were people whose opinions about her changed, but I would guess that many of those that hated her back then still hate her, and many that miss the character now always liked her. Different groups of fans simply became more vocal at different times. Personally, I always liked the character, although I haven't been one of those calling for her return, I've just lost interest in the show overall and stopped watching last season before she even died. Her permanent return probably wouldn't be enough to bring me back.

I don't claim that I only watched the show for Ms Cassidy's sake. The whole team of Oliver, Laurel, Quentin, Tommy, bad guys, snake mother, stepdad who was so nice I suspected he was a secret bad guy, and Merlin made it good for me.
But I couldn't believe all the hate she got from people who flopped facedown onto the floor at Felicity's feet and worshiped her phony, forced double entendres and called her every darling name in the book. I liked the character for her intelligence and upbeat personality.
Meanwhile, the lawyer who worked for breadcrumbs at the free legal clinic in the slums, risking her life and her happiness for the good of her impoverished fellow man, had to be the target of all that hate. I can't really get into it, it was so disgusting, especially the phony bullsht ("impossible to work with, only got the job because of her father, plastic surgery, botox addiction, contract cancelled soon") made up by the phony, self-styled experts and "plastic surgeons" and posted here and on Ms Cassidy's page.

Because supporting your thesis is tough, but throwing adjectives is easy.

I agree so much w/the OP; I have always been a huge supporter of Laurel since the VERY beginning starting w/season 1 and I have NEVER stopped giving her my support. Why now are people wanting Laurel's return especially the ones who spoke so derogatory about her all the time? Well, seems the message boards had a lot of problems on different television show message boards w/so many trolls that now they closing ALL message boards down. I wish way back in the very first season and then some people would've given Laurel a chance, the actress was just doing what the writers told her to do and Katie Cassidy did a wonderful job, I miss her presence on the screen. I have been a fan of Katie Cassidy since her days as Ruby on Supernatural (favorite show of mine) and she did so damn good as the demon Ruby and had such great chemistry w/the Winchester boys. I will say the writing for Laurel here on Arrow started to get a little sketchy but Cassidy handled it like a PRO she is and the writers decide to kill her off anyway. I REALLY wish you Laurel haters from back in the day who now support her would've spoke up much sooner. I think a lot of fans of the soap opera titled Olicity ruined this show, it made the Arrow weaker; I try my hardest to forget those days b/c that is when Oliver changed for the worst it was like his a "part" of his manhood was snipped off. Sorry so long... Laurel Lance aka Black Canary ROCKED !! I miss the REAL Laurel/Black Canary.

I Like Laurel alot and was pissed they killed her off. I think they could have done so much with her. This coming from a Olicity / Felicity Fan!!
shareI was never a Laurel fan, liked her sister much more. I wish Laurel went to Legends and Sara stayed at Arrow. I'm not interested in watching Legends.
Having said that, I liked Felicity at first much more until she became Oliver's thing.
