I'd prefer for Nyssa not to be dead. Maybe just MIA.

Maybe she ran back to the temple to save Talia.

Who is bitter though? That's the name she came into the show with isn't it? There is like 50 Dinahs running around the show. It's my way of separating them.

From what i recall, Tina was her fake name when she was undercover. After she got her revenge on the guy that killed her partner, she told oliver her real name was dinah.

Ah. Just seems like a cheap way to have "Dinah" as BC tbh.

I still think DC got pissed when MG killed off the BC and ordered him to get a BC back in there. Either that or MG realized the ratings were tanking after killing off Laurel and he had to do something to stop the bleeding. But something happened which made him bring on another BC. I am sure the actress who plays the new BC is good and all, but it should have never come to this. They should have never in a million years killed off a BC on a show called Arrow. It's ludicrous. I know this isn't the comics (the real thing) where the GA/BC will forever exist and have a dynamic that is untouchable. I get that. But you just can't remove the BC on a show called Arrow and expect the show to survive for very long and/or without severe backlash. For those that thought it was going to be okay, no problem, Oliver/Felicity would make up for the lack of BC... as we see, that was an utter failure. A new BC was brought on for a reason.

This show will forever go down as the one that tried to remove a famous female Superhero and failed while going there. The attempt to fix the massive mistake might have made it a tad better, but it will still never remove the gigantic mistake completely.

This bit made me think that perhaps the show never recognized the Black Canary in her own right, and only saw her as one-half of a love interest. Noting the popularity of Wonder Woman, clearly there was an audience that was eager and ready to follow a strong story for a female Superhero, especially one that is well established in comic lore. Regardless of the surprise popularity of the Felicity character, the show forgot the that Laurel represented more than a love interest to the Green Arrow and couldn't be easily swapped out of the romantic pairing story line without losing something. Seeing how popular WW is now, it's a shame that the show runners didn't foresee there was an audience waiting and willing to support such a story line.

But it's not her name. She was only called that in one episode. So most people won't know who you're talking about.

It's about time Oliver is getting investigated. Not sure the storyline will be interesting in the long run, but it could/should have happened earlier.
