Legacies

Legacies isn't horrible but it's definitely for a younger audience. You might as well deal with the pain once you finish TVD and TO and move on rather than cling to this last ounce of hope (haha). This show had so much more potential that was pretty much ignored. It adds in tons of mythical creatures which could've been interesting only they made it so immature. It's honestly as if the writer became a middle schooler over night. Another thing is the acting. I'm sorry but other than (Obviously Rick) Josie, Lizzie, Landon, and Hope (who can be a stretch most times) , the actors and actresses either have little talent or are not given the platform to properly present their talent. I think we all had high expectations to which few were met. I'm so disappointed to be saying this and truly wish it were different, but don't waste your time unless you have nothing else to do.

This show legitimately sucks. I could make something better with "pretty people" on my mobile cam. Amateur hour, and they got rick too. I used to love the vampire diaries and the Originals. This show is waaaaaaay below in terms of entertainment value ("monsters with really bad cgi") dude just dont watch it, its for kids, not even teens.

As a younger adult, I am able to relate with this show and the lives of the teenagers in it. Charismatic characters like MG and Kaleb are a joy to watch, and Landon with his deadpan deliveries and budding emotions stand out in the sea of other teenage personalities. Hope is a strong and likable lead, but she acts too much like an adult, even if she is powerful.

There is a strong theme of honesty in this show, or rather, the lack thereof. Almost all of the main and supporting actors have lied multiple times. These lies and/or the revelation of truths are constant plot drivers and climaxes of every episode. Some of these lies are unnecessary and exaggerated, and it breaks the immersion of the show as you tell yourself "that doesn't make any sense." Even though "Legacies" takes place in a fictional world, the human parts, like dialogue and decision-making, are unbelievable as they would not normally happen with regular people.

This show is good, but fewer lies and relatable dialogue can make it great. One of the reasons its predecessor, The Originals, is so great is because it was often no-nonsense and straightforward. Even though the age gap between the characters of both shows numbers in the thousands, that does not excuse the inauthenticity of character interactions.

The first season itself does no justice to the previous series ( TVD an TO) Too much of Hope and Landon drama ( which is clearly not required) Way to many plots and twists, overaged actors for underage characters (Lizze, Kaleb,...)

Am getting sick and bored of the repetitive disappearance of London and Hope going to find. Hope was waay awesome in The Originals. Her hybrid potential is getting wasted in this Legacies. They are running out of ideas for the show. Think eventually the show will be canceled. Legacies is a disgrace to The Originals & Vampire Diaries.
