Big D's chillin' over here, wasteland style
Legends is definitely the most fun of the DCW by a mile this season but I gotta admit like most others here, all the shows are doing so much better. Flash was awesome and Legends stole the night. Reverse Flash. whether Lescher or Cavanaugh, is probably my favorite part of DCW. RF is that perfect blend of smart, menacing, arrogant, and hilarious across all his appearances. They really know how to handle that character. Not to say that Barrowman and McDonough are any slouches, villians rule this show in the best way.

I loved how they both made fun of Malcolm always professing he use to be Ras Al Ghul. I was hoping they would make it go full circle and have Malcolm actually say it after he and Darhk twisted RF into upgrading them to partner status.

Honestly everyone talks about how they want Black Siren redeemed and brought to the Arrow team, but she would be far better treated on LOT. Mainly because Guggenheim won't be able to shaft her in favor of Felicity.

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.

It's a time aberration. The show will fix it by the end of the third season.

So, they're having trouble with a time traveling speedster.

So they go back to 2017 Central City.

And don't talk to the Flash, a time traveling speedster they know.

History has shown that Barry Allen is not someone you would want to consult as an expert on anything.

Plus they're all probably keeping that "Don't trust 2017 Me, I'm a HUGE gently caress up" message from Future Barry in mind.

Yeah, they're idiots, but in this case I'd say they're being smart :v:

Yeah, but it's literally his wheelhouse.

Also, I'm laying 10-1 that the face-stealer or something similar will be used by someone to impersonate Barry, and that's what he's talking about.

Or an evil time remnant?

Or the writers haven't decided what that message actually meant.

I assume they talked to Team Flash off-screen since they had pictures of all the known speedsters.

Trolling Link for a decade


Last season I was actually rooting for Vandal Savage to totally trash the Legends because they're such obvious fuckups. This season I'm rooting for the Legion of Chewing Scenery because they're more charismatic than the 'idiots' trying to stop them.

This show never stops with the surprises, both in the show itself and the reaction it gets from me, I'm sure many others here feel the same. They're adapting only the best plot elements of the comics (and coming up with totally original stuff like lesbian time trollop) but making them come to life in totally natural and entertaining ways.

They really seem to have learned lessons from that messy first season. There's going to be some interesting retrospectives written about what went with that thing.

I do kinda wish that the Black Flash scenes didn't have an obviously CG Black Flash as he stalks around the room. Presumably they had someone in a green suit and CG'd over him as it would be cheaper, but it did sort of stand out as it was sniffing around right in front of Thawne.

Make it a whole season. I have some of those comics, it's a very nice civil war general ghost that rides around on a horse and helps his tank buddies out from time to time with familial advice and stuff.

They made a new Haunted Tank series a few years back where the ghost of the Confederate general discovered that he had a black descendant.

Earlier in the season, I think with the mobsters, he looked to Thawne and asked "so should I take care of them or you?" while seemingly unarmed. Seemed to imply he has at least some of them.
