DC's Legends of Tomorrow: Their Time Is Now

I watched up to ep.16 Below average acting, mindbendingly woeful scripts, awful production, CGI circa 1991. I kept watching in the hope it would get better....

Wentworth Miller is cringe inducingly awful. Even Stephen Amells cameo as Arrow cant save this show.

So much potential.... shame

Everyone is better off watching the Marvel flagship show, Agents of Shield.

Its infinitely better in just about every way. I cant help thinking this show would have been better as a cartoon.

The plot is thin some of the time, the acting reminds me of some of the 50's serial space programs but Caity Lotz has all the smooth moves for picking up women. Its like watching a female Captain Kirk!

This show had promise - for the first 20 minutes of the first episode, but after that, the motto, "Abandon Hope, All Ye Who Enter Here," kept running thru my mind and I could not turn it off. I stuck it out for 8 episodes, ("Hope springs Eternal") but once again yet another CW show falls victim to excruciatingly poor writing. I'd guess the writing is around the level of a 15 year old, except when they are fighting. Then it drops down to what I remember myself being at 12 and playing Cowboys and Indians. I liked it best when the Indians won, and in this show, well...

The show centers around time travel and the Time Masters, a group who watch over various time periods. So, this should be cool to have people travel thru time, yes? Shouldn't be too hard to make it interesting. No fear. It's not.

There is the customary genius (Victor Garber), the customary Angry Men, and two women, one of whom is an assassin, and the other can, thru a totem she wears, take on the powers of whatever animal she mentally envisions.

The story lines are decent, but one wonders if anyone took acting classes. Each person runs the entire gamut of emotion from A to B, as Dorothy Parker once said of a performance by Katharine Hepburn (look 'er. up if you're that young). That is to say, not much range. The travels thru time never include adapting the speech of the times, and oddly enough, the local people- no matter what century - seem to also speak in 20th century English. This lessens the ability to suspend disbelief. In fact, if you turn the volume off and just watch the expressions, you'd be able to tell the plot just by their actions. I hope to, one day, actually watch a show on CW that doesn't remind me of watching and listening to a group of adolescents. But this is not that show.

Sidekicks and Second class villains. This just seems like a money grab on the part of the TV networks. I mean really... Do these guys even read the comics they decide to make into a show. I am undecided on the shows writing at the moment but I can't see it keeping me interested that long at all. I would file it under garbage like Marvels Agent Carter and Marvels Agents of Shield. Just money grab programming with no insight into what the comic community really wants. DC's Flash is really the only thing they have going for them at the moment as Arrow is also complete garbage soap opera bs. So Wonder Woman was turned down for a show but this hot garbage made it??? I am just rambling for the last 2 or 3 lines as this site has some per-designated junk to actually post.

Apart from my disgust at the direction of this series, I have to say, I can't stand Sara's voice! Do that species of not mainstream people have to adopt that voice?
