The CW has had great success with supernatural TV series for many years, particularly those connected with The Originals and The Vampire Diaries. Still, all good things must end sometime. Will Legacies be cancelled or renewed for season four? Stay tuned. *Status Update Below.
The Legacies TV show stars Danielle Rose Russell, Jenny Boyd, Kaylee Bryant, Quincy Fouse, Aria Shahghasemi, Peyton Alex Smith, Chris Lee, Leo Howard, Ben Levin, with 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 (Russell), Lizzie (Boyd) Josie (Bryant), MG (Fouse), Rafael (Smith), Kaleb (Lee), and Landon (Shahghasemi). In season three, Hope has risked everything to pull her friends back from the brink of a monstrous prophecy that threatened to doom them all. But when a heartbreaking loss shatters her whole world, she’s forced to fight fate itself.

What a success
This season is the worst one so far, all because of the dragged out Malivore/Landon/Monster of the week plot that is making the ratings go down. Not to mention the writers forcing Handon to be the “epic love” that it obviously not is, it’s so toxic. They are also ruining Hope’s character by making her revolve around a guy and just be an obsessed love interest. Hoping this show gets cancelled after Season 4, this show ruined the Vampire Diaries Universe with their childish monsters and boring main ship.
Hi. I have a question. On episode 6 of season 3 last week it was like .503 and now its .485. How does that happen
In viewership
Network ratings are released in two rounds. The fast affiliates (11:30am) are essentially an estimate. We mark them with an asterisk. The final more accurate ratings are released later in the day. Sometimes a show is adjusted up and sometimes down. Most outlets only report the fast affiliates.
I enjoy watching anything in the world of vampire diaries but only on Netflix because I can choose when and where to watch. I can’t always watch at the schedule times during the week :/
Just watched first season, one of worst shows I’ve ever seen, everything mixed inside it is like a magic land. Next time don’t forget to bring Zeus in.

I can’t believe CW renewed this. Ratings like these should never happen.
Hi, I have a question about the episode that aired on the 21st. Last week it was at a .20 and now its at .16. How does that happen
The early ratings, aka the fast affiliates, are reported in the morning. These ratings can adjust up or down when the finals are issued, typically in the afternoon. The early ratings are noted by the “*”.

How she lost her parent so young .Candice( Caroline) can be like a mother figure for Hope (Danielle) I wish to see there more connection to the characters . Cuz this obviously a spin off of the vampire diaries n originals . It’s all about love, friendship, and mostly families. I would love to see the twins Dad n their mom reunite to help with the twins overcome their merge . N adopted Hope as their… Read more »
