What’s This TV Show About?

Airing on The CW television network, the DC’s Legends of Tomorrow TV show stars Caity Lotz, Nick Zano, Tala Ashe, Jes Macallan, Matt Ryan, Adam Tsekhman, Olivia Swann, Shayan Sobhian, Lisseth Chavez, and Amy Pemberton. The series follows a motley group of heroes and villains as they have misadventures across time and space in their stolen Waverider time-ship. In season seven, after saving 1925 Earth from an alien invasion (and getting married), Legends co-captains Sara Lance (Lotz) and Ava Sharpe (Macallan) think they and their crew can finally go home and relax. Unfortunately, their time travel ship gets blown up by a second Waverider, leaving the Legends trapped in 1925.
 

Season Seven Ratings

The seventh season of DC’s Legends of Tomorrow averaged a 0.09 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 528,000 viewers. Compared to season six, that’s up by 11% in the demo and up by 27% in viewership in the live+same day ratings (including DVR playback through 3:00 AM). While these numbers don’t include further delayed or streaming viewing, they are a very good indicator of how a show is performing, especially when compared to others on the same channel. There can be other economic factors involved in a show’s fate, but typically the higher-rated series are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled.

Telly’s Take

Will The CW cancel or renew DC’s Legends of Tomorrow for season eight? The ratings aren’t great and everything has to end sometime. I suspect that this show will be coming to the end of its run this season or next. I’ll update this page with breaking developments.
