DCs Legends of Tomorrow

And it gets renewed for a second season, so who do you want to see in the next season?

I want to see Vixen and Constantine!!!!

Wow, Joe Dante directed this.

I liked the most recent episode although I kind of wish it was allowed to play in the DCU a little more. Some cameos would go a long way.

Also, I don't watch Arrow so I had no idea about Sara's orientation, that came as a surprise as her character never emotes much.

Legends just got renewed BTW.

Seriously. How hard is it to stab a dude if you really wanted to????

Hawkgirl looked like a keystone cop on her attempt for Christ's sakes, lol...

Everybody on the team got into the action. Looks like paring it down by 2 members makes it a little more managable. I like the mission impossible type of stories for this series.

^Very fun episode. Even Vandal Savage was better in this one.

Anyone catch the alias he was using, Curtis Knox? That was the name of Dean Cain's character on his one Smallville appearance. A character that was really meant to be...Vandal Savage.

I loved tonight's episode, we got (sorta) Manhawks!!!

[Godzilla]

I loved last weeks episode! If they can continue to keep me guessing like that, I'm all in for the show. I will seriously miss Heatwave, but Cold has to have a plan there.

^It's really starting to gel. And yes, Snart has become quite the scene-stealer. I was on record as really disliking him in his early Flash appearances, but I have to give it to Wentworth Miller, he went out on a limb with that performance, and it eventually paid off.

The show has continued to go in directions you didn't expect. We've now lost two members of the team, in one way or another. I'm guessing both will be back at some point, particularly the latest one, as I think you're right, we didn't see what we thought we saw.

Again, TONS of DC Easter Eggs throughout. Stein's childhood hero, Space Ranger, was an actual DC sci-fi feature of the Silver Age. Also, the lead pirate, Jon Valor, was named after the Golden Age pirate character, The Black Pirate, who later played a supporting role in James Robinson's Starman series!

Watched Thursday night's episode via DVR this evening and pretty thoroughly enjoyed it. Had a really nice sci-fi vibe to it that made me realize I would likely watch the show even if it were not based off of any DC characters.

For me, the scene stealer of the episodes is definitely Snart's Captain Cold (a name they thankfully don't use at all). I know there are folks here on the boards that don't care for his snarkiness, but I think that's what actually makes him interesting. You know they say that usually the bad guys are far more interesting than the good guys. Snart isn't trying to be a hero and he doesn't pretend to try to be a hero; he still does all the things that he would usually do if he were acting on his own, now he just has a much larger stage on which to perform. I'm inclined to think that the final scene likely isn't what it looked like, another red herring (much like the Felicity getting shot sequence on ARROW).

Interesting getting some history on Rip Hunter and his squeeze as they were on the road to becoming Time Masters. I'm not that familiar with the character in the comics, so I have no idea of what they were talking about when the elder Time Master questioned Rip and his companion regarding their real names, but it does lend another layer of intrigue to the show.

Production values on the show continue to be pretty damn good for a weekly super-hero/sci-if mashup and I'm sure this series is likely by far the most expensive to produce of the quadrilogy of DC properties on the small screen. I do hope it is doing well enough to warrant a second season or at least maybe a mini-season from time to time, perhaps involving a rotating cast of DC characters.

The show is gelling now. This was the best episode, with some nice DC Easter Eggs with long-forgotten characters. The Captain Cold/Heatwave bromance took an unexpected turn as well.

Definitely the best episode so far in my opinion. Sort of a Dark Knight Returns feel but with Green Arrow as the Dark Knight. It's starting to get a little bit better.

[monitor_ep]

You may not know who the villain is after all.

Here is a great Behind the scenes look at tonights episode.

Tonight's is basically Dark Knight Returns.

It does seem like the Hawks were a necessary burden to bring along, kinda like having to take your little sister along to the movies with your date. But at least Hawkman is gone for now, but I'm sure they'll find another incarnation. Be nice though if they found another actor, one that had a personality.
I'm liking Cold & Heat Wave, the two most interesting characters by far. Loved Snart's crack about "This isn't my first prisonbreak".
Canary runs on & off for me, love her in the fight scenes, then she starts talking and ruins it. Stein is still interesting, but Garber's acting ability is so head & shoulders above almost everyone else ...but it doesn't seem to pull the others up. And Arthur Darville as Rip can't decide which Doctor Who he wants to imitate. Guess there was a reason he was Mrs. Amy Pond.
But the worst for me is Vandal Savage. The actor is so bad, he makes Hawkboy look good.
