How DC's Legends Of Tomorrow Became The BEST Arrowverse TV Show

5. Protagonists? How About Eight Of Them?

When you watch a show called 'Arrow' or 'The Flash' you have an inkling about who you'll spend the most time with throughout each episode. Legends does away with this trend by maintaining a balance unique to this genre. Will this be a Sara-heavy episode, or maybe one dedicated to furthering Firestorm's arc?

Without the need to focus on a single character (forcing everyone else to be stuck in that person's peripheral), the show's never limited in what kind of stories it can tell, told from whatever preferred perspective the writers choose. And with the consistently evolving roster, including the likes of Vertigo icon John Constantine, there's a lot of history and development that the showrunners can pursue.

And that also includes each character's history with more villainous types, allowing the possibility for potential antagonists to be implemented whenever the opportunity presents itself. It can't be easy to manage so many protagonists simultaneously, but Legends of Tomorrow does so greatly.
