What do you think? Do you like the Legends TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a third season?
This show is AWESOME! I watched Season 1 & 2…finished Season 2 yesterday. Didn’t know the show existed until a week or so ago. Cannot understand why such a well thought out show with an excellent story line and cast would be canceled. Makes no sense. Reconsider bringing a Season 3.
