Even though the show has evolved, Laurel is at the heart of it," "Arrow" Season 5 Epsiode 8 executive producer, Andrew Kreisberg said. "Even if we do get to 200 episodes, Laurel will always be at the heart of the series and be such an important character -- and on top of that, Katie Cassidy will always be so important to us," he continued via an interview with TV Guide.
