Critic Reviews for DC's Legends of Tomorrow Season 5

Fans have learned that they can count on Legends to always have fresh storylines that have absolutely never been done before on television, and to do them in the most creatively weird, totally absurd, inimitable "Legends" way.

The hour was full of sadness and goodbyes that were disguised as light-hearted humor, keeping up with the theme of the show while also tying off some loose ends.

What the episode really did was drive home what makes Legends a great show and makes the characters real heroes: The capacity of both to not just forgive screw-ups, but to allow anyone to be a hero.

The Mary Sue

Legends of Tomorrow is a rare thing, a TV show that manages to be mindful and self-referential without disappearing into itself. Treasure it as you'd treasure a coin minted from your eternal soul.

  Absolutely superb writing, great production value and directing. Really hope the showrunners are able to keep this train rolling for a long time to come without sacrificing quality. Loving it

  I decided to watch this because I loved season 1 & 2. But after those 2 seasons, this show is a complete waste. It's not even about time travel anymore and the storylines are nothing more than pandering to younger generations and certain virtue signaling groups.

  Absolutely loved this season. Much improvement from last season and it introduces two new amazing characters in Behrad and Zari 2.0. The storyline with the Loom of Fate was well paced and Charlie and Zari 1.0's departure was very well written. However, the one thing I didn't enjoy from this season was the way Ray and Nora were written off. They deserved a better ending and absolutely need to come back next season.

  Best season of the show, Season 4 had this ridiculous vibe that made the show better, but also created a big problem (Mona) Season 5 tied season's serious tone into the funny joke season 4 plot line and perfectly merged into the shows best season.

  So a lot of people are complaining that this show has fallen off and is just a joke now, but this probably my favorite season since season 2, it's funny, exciting, and has my favorite episode from all of the series in it.

  Yet again LoT shines with great chemistry between characters and comedy that never seems to disappear. My favorite Arrowverse show by far.

  LoT delivers yet again. The show continues to differentiate itself from the other Arrowverse titles by trying to just have fun. The writers come up with some creative stuff this season. We even get a new opening credits, which better depicts the show's current madcap tone. Despite the silliness, this season feels more grounded than the last, which was getting too campy. (The second episode of this season has the same issue, but it's smooth sailing from there.) Several of the characters have some emotional moments, especially Constantine (Matt Ryan) who remains the tragic backstory MVP. On the other hand, Nate (Nick Zano) who's been through the emotional ringer the last few seasons gets a refreshing reprieve, and we get to focus on how funny he can be. Unfortunately, the Time Bureau was dropped this season. I'll miss the show having official support. On the plus side, we get to see more of Gary (Adam Tsekhman) and Ava (Jes Macallan), now being able to assist the team full-time. I'm happy to say that new addition Behrad (Shayan Sobhian), Zari's brother, fits in immediately and naturally with the rest of cast, bringing a hippie vibe. As Zari, Tala Ashe gets to deliver a very different performance due to previous events, and the actress shows her versatility by nailing it. Mona (Ramona Young), who wasn't really working last season, is downgraded to a recurring character, which works since she is a lot better in smaller doses. Although Mick (Dominick Purcell) does have his own personal story this season, the show seems to be more and more at a loss when it comes to involving him with the overall action and plot-of-the-week. Also, the story, while well-handled, feels like a repeat of a previous plotline. Overall, fans of the show will still find it hasn't lost a step.
