On one hand, this seems great, Roy is returning and Guggenheim, the biggest fan of Felishity, is going away. Mericle's episode also tend to feel really soap-opery. So I don't think that is so bad but still, they have been here since the beginning and it might change the show a little too much But they are not gone, they are just stepping down. Also, Kreisberg left and nothing bad happened to Flash and Supergirl. The only other person I can remember seeing credited from the very beginning of Arrow is Speed Weed and he is still here, so that's fine. And about Blacktorn and Holland, I am not too sad about Thea, it was time for her to go and Quentin...well...I'm gonna miss him...he always felt like he belongs in the show.
