Talk:Laurel Lance (Earth One)

Oliver's secret
I don't really understand what Slade's plan was when he told Laurel about Oliver's secret identity. It looks to me that Laurel will support Oliver now when he need it the most... or am I missing something? - Immortal ripper (talk) 19:16, April 17, 2014 (UTC)

Recovery
I don't realy get why the show focuses on Laurel's recovery from her alcoholism, when her addiction to narcotics is in my opinion much worse than the drinking problem. Svärd (talk) 10:43, May 26, 2014 (UTC)


 * I'd really have to agree, but they'll likely continue that arc in to next season! —M AKE  S  HIFT   (talk) 11:56, May 26, 2014 (UTC)


 * I don't know much about addictions but when she joined the AA, she got to the bottom of the problem and that should get rid of any addiction she had. - Immortal ripper (talk) 19:30, June 10, 2014 (UTC)

Reason for the Laurel hate
I can't really explain this in words correctly, but I feel as if the writers went wrong somewhere back in season 1/season 2 and made it so that most viewers dislike her character. And I'm kinda of board with this. I really do not like where her character is right now. She always seems to act like a helpless child at one point (see Episode 2x21 and 2x22) and has oliver walk her through how to fire a bow and arrow, and the worst part about it is that she brings it onto herself! Oliver tells her to stay in the Arrow Cave and she goes and gets herself into trouble with Oliver. I guess you could argue that she saves Oliver, but I think that the writers just put that in to make her have a purpose of being there. Like what was she even doing there in the first place?! But then she can also act like a badass when she "saved" tommy and oliver from the club in season 1 and when she "always" gets her house broken into. All im saying is that we need consistancy with her character and her characters motives. Anyone else agree? StoneRox (talk) 07:52, July 17, 2014 (UTC)

Some people just don't like certain characters in show in general. I just don't like Laurel. She is whiny, blames others and annoying. A lot of people don't like Laurel overall and would have prefered it if she was killed instead of Sara at the start of season 3. - Sergio N .10th Januaary 2015 21.01pm from Ireland.

Black Canary

That seemed kinda obvious with the special focus on her and with Sara's jacket. But i don't think Oliver's gonna take it well. 194.254.230.97 11:21, November 18, 2014 (UTC)haylE15

Yeah, it is obvious Oliver won't take it well, atleast from the view of the last episode, however by the time this episode airs, he may have taken to it. Wraiyf  You never know when life will hit you hard, but then you hit it back.  12:08, November 18, 2014 (UTC)
