Wild West Trip Once Again

[michaelafamfulikova · 8/10 · 18 November 2016]

This episode was in my opinion better at sideline plots. The main plot line, Legends preventing Turnbull from doing evil, was not bad, but not that great either.Ray without his Atom suit was far more vulnerable here. I wonder what is gonna happen though to Martin Stein in the next episodes, and most importantly, who was the unknown woman he saw in the visions of his. I have an awkward idea the scriptwriters tend to make Dr.Stein feel more and more exhausted, no matter if on purpose, or not. Due to him staying on the Waverider Jax could not use his Firestorm power by merging with him during the Wild West Trip.

Positive comments onto this episode:

Jefferson Jackson gets better as an character Mick Rory portrayal

Negative comments:

The attitude of scriptwriters towards the Dr.Stein character development Ray is still vulnerable

Not Their First Rodeo

[ThomasDrufke · 6/10 · 17 November 2016]

Even though CW has had a relatively good week in terms of their superhero shows, I knew the quality couldn't keep up for long. This Legends episode wasn't necessarily bad, but it lacked the excitement that this season has consistently showcased. For that, it was a disappointing night.

For what it's worth, I thought last season's "The Magnificent Eight", where Jonah Hex was introduced, was weak. So, I wasn't all that surprised to find tonight's trip back to the old west just as dull. Hex himself was fine last year and was fine tonight. I don't find there to be anything special about his presence, but I thought the choice to have Sara be his pair/partner tonight really worked.

I get that Quentin Turnbull is supposed to be Hex's archenemy, but I didn't find anything in his character that could separate him from the likes of every other villain on Legends. I think that's one of the things that this show has always struggled with. Luckily, we know the Legion of Doom are coming. But I hope the writers spend a bit more time fleshing out their villains so that we as an audience connect more with the human side of them. You can't just have every villain be going after a powerful object or device. Tonight, that object came by the form of Dwarf Star Alloy, the very thing Ray used to make his A.T.O.M. Suit.

The other notable side arc was Stein having serious headaches which could be a result of plenty of time jumps or even his run-in with his younger self once again. I'm far more interested in what Barry ended up telling them and why they haven't told the crew yet. Could this be something that comes to a forefront during this massive 4-night crossover in a few weeks? I sure hope so. But overall, this episode failed to really interest me, even with the welcomed appearance of Jonah Hex.

+Sara & Jonah

-Turnbull fell flat

-So did the episode
