DC's Legends of Tomorrow (2016–2022)

Heavy on the sci-fi and has a huge amount of potential

[22 January 2016]

The first episode of DC's Legends of Tomorrow takes some mild but interesting twists, and the pieces are in place for what could be an extremely imaginative, refreshingly fun series, but there's just enough inconsistency in Pilot, Part 1 to shed some doubt on whether or not the show can find its footing. That being said, DC's Legends of Tomorrow does succeed in being a pure, sci-fi popcorn romp that just needs a little more work to fully realize the series' potential.With a lot of the heavy back story wisely taken care of by prior appearances on Arrow and The Flash, DC's Legends of Tomorrow is able to jump right into setting up this bonkers time-travel action adventure. The first episode, Pilot, Part 1, is fairly ambitious in scope while hopping from a war-torn future, to the current DC TV time-line and even the 1970's. The episode is a bit all over the place and struggles occasionally to find its voice, but still ends up being an extremely fun piece of popcorn, comic book television.
