I don't think anyone has to be the Black Canary this season. It would definitely piss of Laurel fans and loyal Green Arrow comic book fans since it's relatively soon after her death. I say develop the vigilantes already on the show before brining in more. Rory and Evelyn are just kinda boring and Curtis isn't much use in the field yet. Focus on finishing their training and working on the Prometheus mystery instead. Even though it's obvious Tina's going to be the next Black Canary, I think it's kinda stupid. They've got enough material, considering they have a lot to tell in the flashbacks, especially with Talia coming up and they're going to do nearly an entire episode of flashbacks, plus they're probably going to do more flashbacks with Prometheus, and I bet they're going to want to focus on him more as well. Laurel's request didn't have a time limit. And if they were to do a redemption arc for Black Siren, I doubt it will be done this season. Katie was busy for the last few months with her movie and I believe they're on episode 16 and she just got back to Vancouver. She's been going to training again so I'm guessing they're going to bring her on to a show but it'll most likely be Legends (which I would honestly prefer, I really want a Canary Sisters team up). I doubt with everything they have to get done in the last few episodes of the season they're manage to do a redemption arc and do it right, so if they do go that route, it will probably be a storyline that goes into Season Six, which (considering how evil she is) would still be a short time to change her around. Sure, in the comics the Black Canary was a metahuman from Earth-2. Hopefully they'll even call Black Siren Dinah (just to avoid confusion). I'm a major Laurel fan but I doubt this is the way they're going to go. Even though a new Canary has been seen on set anywhere, Tina will probably be one by season's end. There gotta be a limit on the Canaries because otherwise their legacy would just be a joke. Obviously Katie Cassidy has a strong and vocal fan base and the cast and crew absolutely love her, so she's not going anywhere, but I doubt this is how it'll happen.
