Arrow Season 5 Promo

at .  Updated at .

Long live the Black Canary. 

That appears to be the motto for Arrow Season 5 and I'm quite on board with that. 

Far too often, TV shows forget their deceased characters quickly, but it's becoming crystal clear that Laurel Lance will never be forgotten. 

The reality - Arrow Season 4 Episode 19

It must really suck to be Captain Lance. He lost Sara a few times and now he's lost Laurel. 

We know that Katie Cassidy will be sticking around the DC TV universe, thanks to her multi-show series regular contract. 

There was confirmation that Cassidy would appear on Arrow Season 5 Episode 1 in a flashback, but we didn't quite expect to witness a monument for her. 

Granted, the monument looks horrible. Hopefully the negative feedback to it will push the powers that be to do some better post-production work on it. 

Arrow Season 5 will not be all about Laurel. If the below preview makes anything clear, it's that Oliver can take care of himself. 

At least according to Thea. 

In our hearts forever - Arrow Season 4 Episode 19

It sure looks like Thea will be taking on a more leadership role within team Arrow this time round and that could make for a much-needed change in dynamics. 

As always, Oliver is getting himself in trouble and based on the latest intel we're hearing, there will be a lot of villains heading to Star City this fall. 

Will we lose any more of our favorite characters?

Hopefully not. 

Based on the below promo, it seems like the show is trying to go back to being fun. 

All the darkness can get a bit much sometimes, so a brighter Arrow would be a good change of tone. 

What do you think of the promo?

Remember you can watch Arrow online right here on TV Fanatic. 

Arrow Season 5 premieres Wednesday October 5 on The CW.

Arrow Quotes

I thought you took that book off your father's dead body. How could he have been so chatty?

Diggle

She was my sister. I couldn't be angry because she was dead. I couldn't grieve because I was so angry, that's what happens when your sister dies while screwing your boyfriend.
