Didn't all the previews have a scene where Ollie and Barry are giving the team a pep-talk on the same rooftop where Rip recruited them?

That was footage shot specifically for upfronts so they would have something to show. They filmed the real pilot later on.

They should've shown both parts of the pilot back to back, it would've flowed better.

Yeah, we got a little bit of Jack Bristow when he bluffed his way into the auction, and it was good.

Snart and Leonard just trying to steal random artifacts for the sake of stealing them was great.

I thought Snart was going to justify stealing other stuff to obscure what their actual goal was.

It's average is right around a 1 in the key demo, which is tied with Arrow for second on the CW. So the ratings are good enough to warrant a renewal.

e: which is all stuff already said. Still, I don't think a "singular" cape show would be appreciably cheaper, and I don't think that will enter into the renew/cancel decision.

It dipped below Arrow to 0.8 this week. I'd expect any other DC show they attempt to do better than that.

Arrow did a .9 this week, that's not really all that much better.

Love triangle subplot was dumb. Shame they couldn't give them anything else to do.

At least it was played for laughs and is, hopefully, contained to just this episode.

I can't remember if they covered it but did they just out Oliver Queen as Green Arrow to Captain Cold and Heatwave? Kinda seems like a dick move given that they'll inevitably end up back in their own timelines.

Harrison Wells figured it out in about 30 seconds last season on The Flash (though he probably just went into his time bunker and asked Gideon).

So am I right in assuming that Time Travel Vandal Savage is still out there on his spaceship? I was surprised they didn't show it to us which is why I'm doubt it but the three Savages they killed were just the guys' in Savage's timeline, right? So the fourth Savage who set the whole plan into motion is still out there? Or was the Savage the Hawks/Rip killed Time Travel Vandal? In which case is there still a living Savage in his timeline until he gets kidnapped in Rip's time or did killing Savage in 75 or 55 kill him or why could they kill Savage in 77 if they killed him in 55? gently caress...

loving time travel.

The Savage in 21-whatever was the Time Traveling Savage

Doesn't fix the bigger issue: Rip Hunter is still here. The Hawkpeople flew off, and good loving riddance. But also, gently caress Rip. He's terrible.

I think (hope) Rip will be better now that he won't be simultaneously yelling at the rest of the team for changing history while trying to change history.

It's honestly a minor miracle they look as good as they do considering they have less time and less money than the movies do. BvS probably cost what, three times as much as the entire first season of legends?

It occurred to me when reading this that I have no idea how budgets for TV shows work. Your estimate seems high since BvS was made for 250 million, but a third of that would put the per episode cost of LoT at 5 million? Which could be right (or at least close)?

I forgot BvS cost that much :downs: An episode of Legends is ballpark between 1-3 million dollars. Probably closer to a million considering they're on the CW.
