If you had told me even a week ago that a zombie Flash with T-Rex vision would show up and get locked in a Swiss bank vault I wouldn't have believed it, but here we are.

So are we all in agreement this is the best CW DC show right now? The show should get points alone for the dramatic improvement from s1 to s2.

Personally I like Supergirl as much if not a bit more, but yeah Legends is quality

I'd be down with backing that assessment. Not familiar with Supergirl but while Flash and Arrow have both improved this season, Legends is just plain FUN now that they've embraced the absurdity and "bunch of losers time traveling around aimlessly" nature of the show.

Replacing Vandal with the Legion of Doom was absolutely the best thing that the show could have done.

I'd give Supergirl better overall, but this show is absolutely the most FUN DCW show.

Given the current direction the US is heading, maybe they should roll the dice on letting Rip cap Washington...

I know someone said this is all Flashpoint related (like everything else in this goddamn universe), but is this the same Thawne who just randomly showed up midway in season 2 of The Flash?

CW please cancel Legends of Tomorrow and replace it with Legion of Doom.

Nah. LoT is generally pretty mediocre to downright retarded, but tonight's episode was great.

e: can't Eobard phase through walls? Or was that just Zoom?

Basically there are two Thawnes. One of them is Wellsobard, who got erased when Eddie killed himself. This Thawne came out of Flashpoint, and has thus regained his existence because Barry pulled him out of the timeline. However he's being hunted by Black Flash, who seeks to erase the living paradox that is Thawne's continuing existence.

Both these Thawnes have the same past up until the night Nora dies. One of them killed her, and went on to be Wells. The other was thrown in a cage for three months, was then released to kill Nora, but due to the divergence continued to exist as a separate entity.

Is it clear what Merlyn would actually change in his past given the chance? His treatment of Rip makes it look like they want him to have a chance at redemption but I suspect he would think to get revenge on his enemies before he would save his wife or Tommy.

He probably wants his loving hand back.


Good money says this season closes with Eobard being made into a real boy again and he'll probably get his Wells memories somehow as a bonus so he can be Flash baddie in season 4 or 5 since they're running out of evil speedsters.

I'm not going to lie, even back in season 1, Legends was my favorite of the Arrowverse shows. I had an unwarranted soft spot for it. So I'm just beyond happy that it's actually grown into something worthy of my love for it instead of just being a guilty pleasure.

This is a show about a collection of people who all detest one another in the most beautifully charismatic way possible, and some times they time travel :allears:

They seem to be heading that way with the whole "the explosion of the time core scattered his component particles across time" comment Stein made last week. He's also got a contract that spans all the CWVerse shows now, so the entire idea is to have him as a recurring guest star and all that.

Now that I've had a few hours to think about it, I'm a little miffed that we didn't get a shot of Malcom, Darhk, and Rip all crammed in the one-seater Time Pod traveling to 2025. That would have just been the cherry on top for the villain comedy of this episode.

I just wanted to pop in and say that this thread's title being incorrect is incredibly fitting for this show, and we should never change it. I've grown accustomed to thinking of the show as Legends to Tomorrow.
