I thought this show was really well written and cast with great plots. I have seen two episodes now and was very impressed. The show really keeps you on the edge of your seat with thrills and twists. Sean Bean gives an excellent performance with his stutter and his accents. You would never believe he was a Yorkshire man, he shines in this show. I have seen him in many roles from Game of Thrones, Sharpe, Lord of the Rings and many more and this is definitely his best most talented acting performance. He should get more gritty roles like this one. It was nice to see some of the Big Love cast in Legends too who are very talented. I really hope they do a second season as this is a great series.
I feel that the show's overall concept and idea is brilliant! With the use of Sean Bean's exquisite acting skills and his portrayal as Martin Odum, they made it off the floor with a blast. You are not provided with too much information from the beginning, but enough to keep you satisfied and engaged to where you are not too confused.
The idea is both suspenseful and thrilling, but definitely could be a little less serious. Some humor here and there would provide a lot more to the show's overall authenticity. The constant dark suspenseful mentality of the this action-packed TV show for the majority of the time can be a little too much for some viewers.
But if you're looking for a concept that is fresh, fun, and exciting, I highly recommend this.

I have seen a lot of reviews on here. I agree with most people Season 1 was just OK. Sean Bean was fantastic but the acting for the rest of the cast was horrific.
Decided to give Season 2 a shot. I couldn't stop watching. It was 100 times better than Season 1. I find it funny all these people on here complaining about the time jumps and that there is words on the bottom of the screen. What do you people have minds of 5 year olds? Stop what you are doing and watch the show. It's not hard to follow as long as you aren't an idiot. The acting is great. Story line was pretty solid too. I think the problem they had was Season 1 was so bad that Season 2 never had a chance. If they started the show with Season 2 instead they might have had a hit. I like how Season 2 ended. It gave closure in case it did get canceled. I was worried they wouldn't tie everything up but they did. I highly recommend this show unless you are like these other 2 year olds that wrote these reviews and can't follow a basic story line.

I'm not going to over analyse this. It's a decent show, second season is a very different format to the first but just as enjoyable perhaps more so as it's a bit less 'American'. It follows through on the backstory of Martin Odum.
Worth watching, it's not Breaking Bad but much better than some of the rubbish being produced these days.
Now I'm just having to add more words for the review to be accepted. What more do I need to say - isn't this a ridiculous policy. I'm not a wannabe TV critic I just wanted to let people know that this show is worth watching. Ten lines of text - seriously? Almost there now not much more to type...

While the forum section will have you believe this is the 2nd coming of the Dexter finale, it's not.
While not the most original show, it has its good parts. Sure the characters aren't really that interesting. I mean most people I assume gave this a chance and caught their eye mostly because of Sean Bean. The tech geek is a direct copy of the one in Arrow, and that's pretty lazy, but it's passable as I really only care about Mr.Bean's character really.
The writers could have done a better job with the characters but they are all passable and Bean fills up the void left by them.
The story seems pretty good. I didn't really feel it is that far-fetched or insulting to people's intelligence ( like The Strain or The Following ).
In the end you'll have to see for yourself. I was immediately hooked after the pilot and I can't say the show has gotten worse or better. Every new episode we find out new things in this ongoing madness of the life of the protagonist. So I guess that could qualify as a "gotten better". First 1-2 episodes are more like "House M.D." style with the plot slowly being introduced to us and now it's mostly about that besides the fbi cases.
I would say atm, it's a solid 7.5-8. People giving it 6 and stuff like that clearly are over exaggerating since there are a lot of worse, way worse shows, with worse acting, worse plots, worse actors, worse production quality.
