Legacies

Let's Just Finish the Dance

I remember where I was for my first Miss Mystic Falls. If you watched The Vampire Diaries and The Originals, you likely remember, too.  Fans of the original shows were in for a nostalgia-filled night on Legacies Season 1 Episode 14 as the Salvatore School hosted the annual pageant.  There were familiar elements weaved in like the traditional dance, Caroline's dress gifted to her by Klaus, and even Roman, Hope's ex-boyfriend, and the man partially responsibl... more

The Boy Who Still Has a Lot of Good to Do

There's been a lot of debate of late about what supernatural abilities Landon Kirby could have, and Legacies Season 1 Episode 13 shed light on them.  I appreciate that Julie Plec and co. wanted us to believe Landon was legitimately dead, but for those of us who watched The Vampire Diaries and The Originals, we know dead does not mean dead in this universe.  That being said, the visuals of Landon combusting before rising from the ashes were well-executed. I ... more

There's a Mummy on Main Street

With two out of three Malivore locks down, it's time to entertain the possibility that we could be taking a trip the mystical prison during Legacies Season 1.  Granted, we still have a bunch of episodes before the season finale, but Legacies Season 1 Episode 12 kicked the action into high gear, and while I would usually complain about some of the key players being away from the drama, I'm glad.  Some of the other characters got time to shine. If you watch Legacies on... more

Directing Legacies Made Paul Wesley Nostalgic for His Vampire Diaries Days (But Not Enough to Play Stefan Again)

Stefan Salvatore may be a distant, hellfire-grilled memory, but Paul Wesley remains very much at large in Mystic Falls, returning to direct tonight’s episode of Legacies (The CW, 9/8c). Despite Legacies being set in the same fictional Virginia town as The Vampire Diaries, Wesley tells TVLine, “It feels like a completely different show. The one time I had a weird moment was when I walked into the Salvatore great room. That set is still there, and even though it’s ... more

Legacies Recap: Mummy's the Word (Plus, Let's Discuss Josie's Big Secret)

Thursday’s episode of Legacies thrust our heroes into a battle of biblical proportions. Or as Hope assessed the situation, “This is plaguey, right? It seems plaguey.” Desperate to recover the urn he tossed into the river while slug-drunk, Alaric took a few of the Salvatore School’s best and brightest on a road trip to Maple Hollows this week. But don’t be fooled by the adorable name of the gang’s destination, for there was nothing cute about this tr... more

Legacies Recap: Along Came a Spider (Plus, Which Couple Finally Kissed?)

Legacies expanded its ever-growing bestiary on Thursday by pitting the students against an eight-legged bloodsucker. And Ghostface from the Scream movies. And… Gorilla Grodd from The Flash? (To be fair, those last two were merely special guests in MG’s gloriously nerdy nightmares.) The episode began with another dramatic school-wide briefing: “Not Now” Dana was reported missing, and since pretty much every bad thing that happens in town has ... more
