Arrow
Stephen Amell has taken to Facebook to discuss the revelation from the midseason finale that saw a seemingly alive Laurel Lance appear in the Arrow Cave, and how Oliver and the team will view her initially when the show returns:
Obviously people don’t just come back from the dead, so there has to be some sort of vetting process to make sure that it is Laurel because the group has seen some peculiar things. We delve into that when we come back in the New Year.

Colony
