From the synopsis of the season finale

quote:

The Legends plan to vanquish Mallus by using the totems doesn’t go as planned,
I'd spoiler that but, is it really a spoiler that the Legends gently caress things up?

Also, the title of the finale? The Good, the Bad, the Cuddly.

He's been the voice of Mallus this season, so I choose to believe that it's actually Dr. Walter Bishop and he's just dropped a ton of LSD.

Yeah, on his own show they started out with him doing stuff like putting one as a scene started and the like, but by about halfway through he was lighting them on holy candles inside a church. Maybe by then they knew cancelation was coming but something changed and they let it be super overt and it was glorious.

As far as I understand it lighting up and stubbing out a cigarette are border issues, and in all cases need to be negotiated with the network, but the real issue was inhaling.

Whoever wrote "Return of the Mack" was like "I just made the most meta episode title ever" and then that guy was all "hold my beer".

Return of the Mack was such a good song to base an episode around. Now if Flash could get in on the crazy train we’d be set.

Same here. But then I remembered that this isn't Flash and this show actually respects Wally. I'm legit sad about Kuasa though. I have the BluRay of the first two seasons of Vixen, but I haven't watched it yet so I don't know what she was like there, but she turned out to be a pretty good character this year on Legends.

So, wait, which Earth's Barack Obama will it be? Because we've established he isn't the President on Earth 1 or Supergirl's Earth.

Maybe BL's Earth, since they mentioned him being President on that one?

The otherwise very tightly knit MCU flip flopped on whether Obama was president or if it was a fictional one, this universe with much looser continuity and rules can do the same

Sara straight up says the word "Obamacare," so I'm guessing that Obama was still president on Earth-1, served his full two terms, and then was succeeded by the dude who got ganked during Invasion! and in turn succeeded by his female VP.

The correct answer though is: Don't worry about it.

Butt first, let's
check the feeds.

Yeah, guys. I think the answer is "a time traveling group of super heroed idiots are rescuing Barack Obama from a telepathic gorilla and you're worried about what the exact Presidential lineage is?"

He served one term. He got succeeded by someone else. He beat Bush in 2004. He's gonna win in 2020. He was actually the Speaker of the House when the Dominators showed up and there's another tragedy coming. Its an anachronism. Forget about it.

I was kind of hoping we'd finally get Megalyn Echikunwoke there, even though I knew we wouldn't because that would have gotten spoilered by now.

Why exactly is Megalyn unable to appear? I didn't know she was in anything big, and she's not averse to the role since she apparently returned to voice Mari in The Ray.

Goddamn, I made this exact same comparison to my roommate last night. It was really noticeable during the fight scene. It would be pretty dope if they jumped to 1966 and ran into a young Adam West Batman.
