Legacies

I'll Tell You a Story

If you were looking for answers, then Legacies Season 1 Episode 15 was the hour for you.  I'm still trying to catch my breath from this installment which moved along at such a brisk pace that it probably gave every single viewer whiplash.  Let's talk about Landon, Ryan and all things Malivore.  Landon has been on a mission to find out everything there is to know about his past, and I did not expect Ryan to unveil all the goodies so soon.  The t... more

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

Legacies Boss Explains What Hope's Finale Sacrifice Means for Season 2

Hope Mikaelson followed in her father’s footsteps on Thursday’s Legacies season finale — and not in a good way. After rescuing Landon from Clarke (and a headless horseman) and finally dropping the L-bomb, Hope did a cordless bungee jump into the pit, correctly theorizing that her tribrid nature would stop Malivore (also the creation of a witch, vampire and werewolf) from being revived. Unfortunately, things weren’t any better back in Mystic Falls. An army of Triad goons — including MG’s mom and a handsome dev... 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
