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?
Best Show I have seen in many years! Bean was incredible to watch. Show shouldn’t have been cancelled. STupid TNT!!!!!
Legends is a great show and doesn’t fit the normal style where everything is wrapped up in a single hour episode. I loved how they weaved what drove the main characters this year. What is the point of watching a show now if they are going to cancel it after a season or two.
Great show with solid storytelling and acting. Keep it on the air
I am giving up on all new shows. They get you hooked and the cancel the show.
I agree, we fell for FOREVER last year and boom, cancelled, very upsetting, now same thing with LEGENDS, so smart and compelling, then boom, cancelled.
One of the best seasons of any TV show I have ever watched. Gripping, suspenseful and the acting was superb. The back and forth in time was genius. Fantastic show. Bring it back.
Agree
just learned of this show a month ago. and it is great. tnt is making a huge mistake cancelling this one. all of the story lines and legends this could go on forever and be very entertaining.
Love this show! Please bring back Legends
Hope another network picks this show up.I lost Longmire another great show! maybe Netflix, I watch Longmire on Netflix. Sean Bean is great in this show! who decides to cancel these shows!
This is one of the best show on TV please do not cancel it. Can’t get enough of it. Please some pick this show up!
Please do not cancel this show we sat and watch the series in one sitting and cannot get enough of it. Great show!
I stayed up all night catching up on all the shows. IT was a very interesting show I did not want to go to bed. Please continue with Legend I WANT TO SEE THE DIRTY CHARACTERS GET WHAT IS COMING TO THEM. Is THE NEW LEADER OF THE FBI CROOKED ALSO. You are leaving us hanging, Whomever is canceling these show you make a person not want to watch any of your old or new shows. Thanks a lot
Legends is a show that appeals to the over 30 segment of viewers and it seems that these are the shows that are canceled. I hope another network pick it up. The show leaves the viewers hanging.
I’m literally bereaved at the mere thought never to see Legends again. This show must be brought back. Any ideas what one can do to make it happen? I’m not going to sit back and watch my all-time favourite show fade into oblivion after the uber-excellent second season. Anyone’s with me?
I am with you. Maybe TNT need to air more previews of their shows. Some people (like me) was unaware of the show Legends.
To tell you the truth, I only “discovered” this, with the last two episodes! It’s wonderful! An IDEAL series, and I can’t believe it’s cancelled. PLEASE reconsider! Also, please re-run everything very soon, maybe weekly. I am not able to view it online or stream it on my tv; won’t go into that! But, I REALLY want to see, at least, both seasons. And again, please give it another chance, and another. BTW, it wasn’t advertised very well. I’d had a completely different idea of what the show is about. I LOVE spy shows when they are done right! DON’T… Read more »
I am mortified this show has been cancelled!! NOOOOOOOOOOOO! Please bring it back! This has an amazing storyline & I desperately want to continue to watch what happens next!
love the show Can’t believe TNT would cancel such a good show. too bad the exec’s don’t understand what good TV is. Bring back Legends in 2016. Love the show, actors, and story.
