9 Most Emotional TV Moments Of 2016
6. Laurel Says Goodbye - Arrow
Much like its stablemate The Flash, Arrow hasn't enjoyed the best run of form this year. Although it's course-corrected a lot in Season 5, the back-end of Season 4 was a continuation of the show's major decline.
Right in the middle of that you had the big, supposedly shocking moment that was Laurel's death.
The issue was we knew someone was going to try at some point, because they'd said so in the season premiere, and Laurel increasingly became the most likely candidate.
However, while Darhk stabbing her didn't carry the impact it otherwise might've, she still got an emotional farewell scene. Katie Cassidy and Stephen Amell sold the hell out of it, and made it hard to say goodbye even to a character who wasn't always that well-liked (but had improved a lot in the past couple of years).
