17 Most Exciting New TV Shows You Need To Watch This Fall
3. DC's Legends Of Tomorrow
Not content with having Arrow and The Flash, The CW network will be delivering Legends of Tomorrow this fall. Its set to star a whole host of Arrow and Flash alumni (technically making it a spin-off of a spin-off), including Brandon Rouths Ray Palmer/Atom, Victor Garber's Prof. Stein/Firestorm, Wentworth Millers Captain Cold, Dominic Purcells Heat Wave, and Caity Lotzs Sara Lance/Canary. Arthur Darvill will be Rip Hunter, a time-traveller (and Darvill does have previous in that area) who has seen the future and wants to prevent it from happening. To do so, he rounds up the characters mentioned above, and one or two others, who will be known as the Legends of Tomorrow. Theyll work together to save the planet and basically stop all of time from collapsing in on itself. It was ordered to series without a pilot, showing that there is a fair amount of confidence in the show (and also an acknowledgement of the fact many of the characters have already been introduced to the target audience). Its an interesting concept, featuring some well-liked characters, and if it can replicate the success of its stablemates then itll do well, and open the door for some three-way crossovers (as already evidenced in the trailer below). https://youtu.be/4MubNoWQiSc
NCTJ-qualified journalist. Most definitely not a racing driver. Drink too much tea; eat too much peanut butter; watch too much TV. Sadly only the latter paying off so far.
A mix of wise-old man in a young man's body with a child-like wonder about him and a great otherworldly sensibility.
