5. Dr. Saunders and Mellie will recur.
Miracle Laurie also returns this season as the tragic Mellie/November. “I can’t tell you exactly how,” Whedon said. “I can tell you that she’ll be back early on, and that we’re definitely not done with the character, and, well, that probably means there’s going to be some pain involved.
