This is not exactly the best time to have speeches about how America is great and how it's all about fairness and justice, but it was still pretty fun.

I do like how it cribbed from Guns of the South, though that had modern racists give the CSA Aks.

But drat, being Canada, i always find it hilarious how American stuff always makes Cornwallis and the Brits little better than nazis in anything involving the Revolutionary War. Here Cornwallis is seen as a hero with schools and counties named after him.

If you haven't seen it, HBO's John Adams does a really great job of depicting the era. It also includes Benjamin Franklin banging every woman in France. A+

In fairness the Legends have been out of the timeline for awhile now and our reality sounds a lot like one of those "aberrations" they'd have to go fix.

Maybe the real reason for the spear of destiny is they have to re-write reality to stop Donald?

Maybe the Legends are the real villains afterall...

If I had the spear of destiny I would erase Trump from existence. The Legion of Doom is trying to save the entire world.

He's full time on another show so he isn't doing guest appearances.

While he was a regular on Continuum he also was a recurring on Arrow, Motive, The Strain and The Returned (presumably not all of them at the same time) and still found time to do guest shots on other things.

They all film in the same alley and abandoned warehouse so it's not like he's traveling for it.

You'll probably enjoy Frequency (the show) if you're a time travel fan too. The protagonist gets the chance to communicate with the past, and promptly fucks up time in a very Barry Allen way.

Give Timeless a chance too. It's sort of a more serious LoT. Not the best show, but entertaining nonetheless.

Timeless is on Plex to be synced eventually. It seems like one I'd really enjoy but there's so much other crap to catch up on first. I'm still on S1 Orphan Black for instance.

I mean it's show about people traveling back in time and going on adventures with famous people, with a season plot involving a secret organisation that tries to control the world. So far I've enjoyed it a lot.

"Surprise, muthafucka."
Timeless has gotten much better. And it might take itself more seriously than LoT, but not that much more seriously.

Travelers was great, but way more grim.

They end up using the same historical figures in the plot on the same week. The most recent was Al Capone and Untouchables jokes. Timeless is entertaining, not amazing though.

Rory's bit in the intro about blowing up the Time Pigs made me laugh far too much. This show got much better when it decided to stop being so serious and enjoy itself.

I hope Evil Rip gets to do an intro.

Don't they have some kind of universal translator thing? The English spoken in the 5th century is so different from the English of the 20th and 21st century, the translator would have to be working when they were talking to the knights. So Galahad wouldn't have been confused by Ray's use of the term "fan," because the translator would've just translated it into an appropriate term That Galahad would've understood.

This show is bullshit.
