The Review at the End of the Universe
“Meet the Legends” DC’s Legends of Tomorrow returns with a mockumentary style episode and a taste of what to expect over the coming season. There’s no denying that this show operates on a different level to the other Arrowverse shows with its own unique style that sets it apart in the best possible way. Nothing…
DC’s Legends of Tomorrow recently completed its fourth season and we continue our Arrowverse end of season coverage with a conversation. We talk magical theme parks, domestic purgatory and impromptu Bollywood dance numbers. Craig can be found on this very site, Andrew’s work can be found on the Starburst website and in physical magazines that…
“Terms of Service” DC’s Legends of Tomorrow gears up for the season finale by raising the stakes for everyone concerned taking stock of character choices leading to this point. One of the more immediate problems is Gary. His desire to be loved and accepted by the Legends has made him accidentally dangerous as he acts…
“Nip/Stuck” DC’s Legends of Tomorrow picks up the pieces following the team learning about Neron possessing Ray and try to figure out their next move. One of the major strengths of this show is the constant focus on characters and the unflinching commitment to have the story flow from them. This isn’t always true but…
“Egg MacGuffin” DC’s Legends of Tomorrow deals with the Ray possession plot, continues to develop the Nate/Zari relationship and gives Mick’s role as a writer attention. “Egg MacGuffin” is one of those episodes where it’s hard to put a pin in what it’s actually about because the focus is spread pretty evenly between all of…
“The Eggplant, the Witch and the Wardrobe” DC’s Legends of Tomorrow splits the team into groups to tackle separate yet connected plots that revolve around Neron. Before I analyse the groups linked to Neron I’ll briefly discuss the one that isn’t. Zari, Mona, Mick and Charlie hang around the ship as Zari tries to figure…
“Séance And Sensibility” Love -or at least lust- is in the ventilation system on a romantically charged DC’s Legends of Tomorrow where many of the characters confront feelings they have been denying themselves. Recent episodes have been setting up the possibility of a Nate/Zari romance in the true CW tradition of them just happening to…
“The Getaway” DC’s Legends of Tomorrow takes the team back to 1973 to make sure that Nixon tells his historic lies so that the timeline can be preserved. The truth has often been a problem in Arrowverse shows. Characters tend to keep vital information from one another in order to manufacture drama a d divide…
“Lucha de Apuestas” DC’s Legends of Tomorrow returns from a long hiatus with an unconventional love story and a visit to 1961 Mexico City to take in the wrestling culture. Mona has been a great addition to the cast. In many ways she embodies the values that we should all aspire to as she takes…
“Legends of To-Meow-Meow” DC’s Legends of Tomorrow picks up right where the previous episode left off with a broken timeline resulting in some hilarious changes for the characters. I’ve said this on repeated occasions but I continue to be both impressed and baffled by the confidence in which this show throws insanity at the audience…
