What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on The CW television network, the Legacies TV show stars Danielle Rose Russell, Jenny Boyd, Kaylee Bryant, Quincy Fouse, Aria Shahghasemi, Chris Lee, Leo Howard, Ben Levin, and Matthew Davis. This show is set in the Salvatore Boarding School for the Young and Gifted in Mystic Falls, a haven for supernatural beings to learn to control their impulses and abilities. The ongoing story follows a new generation of supernatural students (like vampires, witches, and werewolves) as they learn what it means to be special in a society that wouldn’t understand their gifts. They include Hope Mikaelson (Russell), Lizzie Saltzman (Boyd), Josie Saltzman (Bryant), MG (Fouse), Kaleb (Lee), and Landon Kirby (Shahghasemi). Josie and Lizzie’s father is Alaric Saltzman (Davis), the human headmaster of the school.
Season Four Ratings
The fourth season of Legacies averaged a 0.08 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 370,000 viewers. Compared to season three, that’s down by 35% in the demo and down by 32% 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. Find out how Legacies stacks up against other CW TV shows.
Legacies has been cancelled so there will not be a fifth season. The last episode aired on June 16, 2022. Could it be revived someday? Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will The CW cancel or renew Legacies for season five? This show has been a good performer for the network in the past and The CW has been renewing most of their shows year after year. This series fits well with the rest of the network’s programming so I think it has a very good chance of being renewed. I’ll update this page with breaking developments.

What do you think? Were you hoping that the Legacies TV show would be renewed for a fifth season? Are you sorry that The CW cancelled this TV series, instead?
Please I wish they would go on the show is so good
Please do not cancel this show, this is one of the few good things left in my life
I think this was a horribly wrong decision they made to cancell this show especially when some from the first two shows were starting to make appearances. Which is the best thing thing they could ever do.. Bring the Legacies back….very foolish to cancel it.
You just can’t cancel the show. We need it. All the good supernatural shows being canceled and replaced by shows that mean nothing to the supernatural crowd. Do w have to boycott the stations t h at do this to us?
Great
I love this show it is my safe place, and I would be devastated if it got canceled without a season 5. I’m not sure if this is taken into consideration when renewing, but I know a lot of people have trouble watching the episode right away including me. Which I’m sure Doesn’t help ratings but we do watch the show. If your gonna cancel it please at least give it a proper ending in season 5
This show means very much to me. It’s on the top of my list of favourites. It has so much potetnial. The actresses and actors are great. I would very much like to see the show getting renewed for s5 and more seasons. Take in consideration that many people can’t see the episode right away when it comes. Some have to wait some days or maybe even weeks, since they aren’t from the US and can’t see the episode at the CW website. For all you know the show can have many more viewers then you think, but it doesn’t… Read more »
Now that Malavoy is dead hope how to kill Landon now the gods have returned i’ve been thinking lately. That she just needs to create Malivar again. To take on the gods. I love this TV show I’ve been watching it for a long time is it in originals. Not a big fan a TVD but I still watch it because the Nikolaus Elijah Rebecca. But I do think they need a little bit more to hope power. Or she’s more like a supernatural God because she has a power all three bloodlines. In my last thought that she needs… Read more »
Im not ready for legacies to end, its the only tv show i watch, and i love it, please let there be a season 5, and more seasons after that.
Seasons 1 and 2 were ok but season 3 was better but by season 4 it felt way more like tvd and the originals we got to see Elena’s house, no humanity hope, Rebekah, Freya, Marcel, and Kol!!!
I love that show I have binge watched vampire diaries, and the originals, along with all the legacies so I’d say I was a fan of the whole story line from the begining
I love Legacies and hope it gets renewed for more seasons. I keep rewatching the episodes, because I honestly cannot get enough of it.
I love legacies I watch it every week never missed an episode I really want legacies to get renewed for a 5th season and a 6th and so on. I’ve watched the seasons more than once. I’m gonna be so upset if they don’t renew legacies for again
This show needs more seasons its a great show but with the landon seem are **** all hope Attention was on him and that why it hasn’t been going good but now it’s getting better so I hope the show keeps going and us the fan need to fight because are u guys getting sick of our shows getting Canceled the thing is The writers directors They still get played so they don’t give ashit about the show like we do
If they don’t renew it for a season 5 6 7 8 9 or even a 10th season I will never watch another cw show again and I think they should also take into consideration those of us who use fire sticks that stream the show when it’s issued.
I also have a fire stick
Same. I HAVE A FIRESTICK AND I watch via the cwtv app! They should take that into account more than television as many don’t have cable anymore but it doesn’t mean the show isn’t being watched!! They need to renew legacies for a few more seasons!!
