Though the show immediately jumps into battling Nazis, everyone’s favorite time-traveling starting point, it’s also glib about the choice. For those who gave up on Legends after its disappointing first season, take heart that the story might finally be getting the justice it deserves.

DC’s Legends of Tomorrow remains an odd bird. ... The better news is that once aboard the ship, the ensuing backstory on the Legends’ predicament tees up a rollicking, rat-a-tat recap of their off-season flitting through time.

Despite the talented gift and promising premise, Legends of Tomorrow cannot escape the undeniable fact that it feels like an overheated rehash of storylines that fans have already seen on the other Arrowverse shows.

The second season is where things start becoming more fun. It's great to see how the show bounced up in just one year. The season begins with all the members separated in different timelines. The first episode itself starts with the French Revolution, and in just five minutes the serial shows how it is no longer the terrible show that it once was. It used the previous big villains from Arrow and The Flash - Reverse Flash, Malcolm Merlon and Damien Darhk. It's funny how Malcolm and Damien were the reasons why Arrow had started rotting. The team also adds Steel and Vixen to their team, and that is for the better.

Watching this again in 2026 is a bit weird. Season 2 was still in it's "trying to be a superhero show" stage and was probably the better for it. It brings back Damien Darhk and Eobard Thawne as villains and it mostly works out the better for it, right up until the end where it has an unsatisfactory ending. The fight scenes range from really good (the ninja episode) to really bad (the first 1940's episode). One of the more frustraighting things is how difficult it is to watch with all the pre-2020's woke jabs it takes. Jacks talking about racism (when do we ever see him experience any in any of the DC shows?) or Vixen talking about women not having equal rights in the current day (what rights doesn't she have in the current day?, Especially when she previously lived in the 1940's?). The me who's suffered through The Witcher and The wheel of time is so board of these snips, shows pre-2020 were taking.

Season two has a lot of potential, but after the pilot, it is hard to say where the show is going. On one hand, the lack of Rip Hunter/the hawks, the Justice Society of America, and the Legion of Doom give the show a lot of potential, but the first episode felt a little boring.

Ejecting a necessary character (Capt. Hunter) and making the show into pure shlock, apparently written by someone in highschool, is counter-balanced by non-existant continuity and horrific CGI. It is amazing that they expect anyone to watch when the effective capibilities of each character change on a weekly basis. I would go so far as to say this show is Legendary, needing a reboot after only one season. After the steady improvement with last season ending as a 7/10, this show is cancelled after only two episodes, for me.

I really don't liked it. I'm watching it only for the crossover with the other cw shows but compared to the others it's very poor. It focus only on few caracters ignoring others, it doesn't follow any of the time travel ruler (really, it doen't make any sense) and the acting is very poor.
