What’s This TV Show About?
A The CW supernatural drama, Legacies is a sequel series to The Vampire Diaries and The Originals, starring Danielle Rose Russell, Jenny Boyd, Kaylee Bryant, Quincy Fouse, Aria Shahghasemi, Peyton Alex Smith, and Matt Davis. The horror fantasy centers on Hope Mikaelson (Russell), daughter of the Original, Klaus Mikaelson (Joseph Morgan). Hope is now a student at The Salvatore Boarding School for the Young and Gifted, along with other unusual students, including Lizzie (Boyd) and Josie (Bryant), the twin daughters of Alaric Saltzman (Davis). Although they’re still in school, they have to keep their abilities and true natures a secret, while they rely on age-old lore to help them learn how to fight their enemies.

Telly’s Take
Will The CW cancel or renew Legacies for season two? The ratings aren’t great but I think it will get a renewal, because it has somewhat of a built-in audience with fans of The Vampire Diaries and The Originals. The network has extended season one to 16 episodes which will give the series a bit more time to prove itself. I’ll keep an eye on the ratings and update this page with breaking developments.
