If there is anything good in this world, this is both a reference to the sheep, and a good indication that Dolly Parton will be in this episode.

...Also the musical. As in the exact musical Victor Garber left the show to star in. Hint hint.

Only slightly related but a TV channel over here started showing Constantine and I am already sold after the first episode.

Also kind of fitting with the tesla meltdown with the big evil electricity demon doing all the car murders

I learned that Alex Ross painted a picture of Citizen Steel with a huge bulge once, I am surprised they have not worked that into the show.

Also Vandal Savage was created by Alfred Bester. That makes me even more mad about what they did to him on the show.

I actually liked Mustache-twirling, stranger danger Vandal Savage. It's how I learned to stop taking Legends seriously and embrace the goofiness.

I think the problem with Savage was that the character was inherently goofy, but they hadn't quite embraced that goofiness yet and still treated him as this deadly serious threat most of the time.

If there'd been a few jokes where someone asks, "What makes Savage so dangerous?" and they said, "He carries a knife! Sometimes several!" like that old Dark Knight flash animation it would've been great.

I felt the seriousness actually worked somehow, because it was hilarious much trouble the Legends had fighting him. The best moment was when they crash a weapons auction, and Savage is just grinning like a psycho the entire time.

So while Flash, Arrow, and Supergirl are doing Elseworlds, Legends is going to be crossing over with... itself.

TV Line posted:

But as Legends showrunner Keto Shimizu told TVLine at The CW’s Fall Launch event held Sunday night at the Warner Bros. lot, “During the week that all the other crossovers are happening, we will essentially be crossing over with ourselves,” in an episode that will traverse “alternate time periods.”

“That particular episode is insane,” attested Legends lead Caity Lotz, who added: “I think they wanted to do something special since we weren’t going to be doing the [‘Elseworlds’] crossovers.”

Lotz teased that, in keeping with what Shmizu said above about “alternate” time periods, “You’ll see a lot of different sides of the Legends.” And from the sound of it, those sides will be interacting with themselves (a la the Season 2 finale involving the Spear of Destiny).

“I’ll just say it’s a lot of work for the people who are in those scenes!” laughed Tala Ashe, who plays Zari. “It’s fun.”

Wouldn't their response to everything just be "Burn it, then go get drunk. Or get drunk during the burning, whatever, just burn something I'll get the beer."

I'm not against that, it sounds like fun but man they would be terrible at stuff.

Yes, it would just be a bunch of Micks in mild disagreement with one another.

"I saw we burn it, and then go get drunk."
"That's a terrible plan. First we get drunk, then we burn it."
"You guys are idiots. I can't believe you're me. The Lord gave you two hands. With one, you giveth the flame, with the other, you taketh the drink. Hold on, I have to write that one down for my next book."
"Mick's got a point. We have two hands. Why aren't they both holding drinks?"

And so on. I'd watch it for 43 minutes.

And then Ray would give them one of those hats that can hold beers and blow their minds. Goddamn, that would be an amazing episode.

I look forward Doom Patrol finding ways to out-weird the Legends, been hoping for live-action DP since Crawling From The Wreckage.

They cast Cyborg, looks like he's handing out missions. So i'm guessing he'll show up in Titans too at some point.

The idea was supposed to be that they would appear in Titans and then spin off into the Doom Patrol series proper. Not sure if that's still true.

It's true, 100%. One of the episodes is called Doom Patrol. But the Cyborg casting was mentioned about the Doom Patrol show. No specifically Titans.
