Legends of Tomorrow

TV Series · 2016–2022 · 15 people

DC Comics characters are the basis of Legends of Tomorrow (DC's Legends of Tomorrow), an American time-travel superhero series. It aired on The CW from January 21, 2016 to March 2, 2022, for seven seasons and 110 episodes. Developed by Greg Berlanti, Marc Guggenheim, Andrew Kreisberg and Phil Klemmer, it is a spin-off of Arrow and The Flash set in the shared Arrowverse and the fourth series in it, with characters from both alongside new ones.

The story begins when time-traveling rogue Rip Hunter, who has seen a future he wants to prevent, assembles a disparate group of heroes and villains to face an unstoppable threat to the planet and to time itself. The cast has included Caity Lotz, Dominic Purcell, Brandon Routh, Arthur Darvill, Victor Garber, Wentworth Miller, Franz Drameh and Ciara Renée, with Maisie Richardson-Sellers, Nick Zano, Tala Ashe, Jes Macallan and Matt Ryan joining later.

The first season drew mixed reviews. The show then shifted from a self-serious superhero drama to a lighter DC series associated with meta-humor and social commentary, which critics felt let it find its voice. It was canceled in April 2022, after a seventh season that ended on a cliffhanger, and fans campaigned for its return as #SaveLegendsOfTomorrow.

Through different eyes

Series Binger A series devotee tracking character arcs, cast chemistry and season pacing.

Legends of Tomorrow is one of those rare shows that managed to reinvent itself. The first season, with its heroes and villains gathered from the Arrow and The Flash universe, played like an overly serious, somewhat scattered superhero drama, so the mixed reviews are no surprise. Then the show changed its tone, moved to something lighter and self-mocking, and that is where it found its real voice. Because the cast changed a lot over the seasons, the chemistry isn't the same in every era, and some transitions take getting used to. Being canceled after seven seasons and 110 episodes, on a cliffhanger, still leaves the story feeling unfinished for fans.

Action & Thriller Fan Puts pace, tension and set pieces first; little patience for slow drama.

Time travel, superpowers, heroes and villains on the same team: plenty of material for action. The first season is too serious and sluggish at times, and it tested my patience. Once the show lightens up, the pace opens up and the fun grows. But the humor sometimes eats the tension; when everything turns into a joke, the stakes lose their weight. If you love superhero universes, it's still a good time.

Family Viewer Asks whether the whole household can watch it; cares about humor and heart.

Superheroes and time travel will catch children's interest, and the light humor of the later seasons makes family viewing easier. Still, because of the superhero clashes and the darker mood of the first season, it suits middle- and high-schoolers more than little ones. Seven seasons and 110 episodes is a long journey to start as a family. And know from the outset that the show ends on a cliffhanger.
