This week on Legacies, Hope ditches Josie and Lizzie and takes off with Clarke. They occur upon Cleo and Landon. Landon then eats Cleo and divulges he’s really Malivore. Lizzie tries to arrange Hope with Ethan, however he asks her out as a substitute. Josie tells Finch about her darkish days. MG and Kaleb save individuals from a automotive wreck.
Sufficient already: I’ve nearly had it with the writing on this present. Landon dies, comes again, dies once more, comes again, it’s a pretend Landon, comes again, pretend Landon once more, … When does it finish? It’s simply turn out to be this limitless loop of Hope and Landon drama. , it has really made me miss love triangles as a result of that may’ve at the least given Hope one thing else to do however the writers gained’t even take into account one other love curiosity for Hope (regardless that she’s had so many potential ones working round on this present). It’s tedious to look at while you don’t take care of Hope and Landon’s relationship, which at the least half the fandom doesn’t. And I can’t think about the Handon followers are too pleased with writing like this? This present wants a severe change, in any other case, they gained’t simply have followers leaping ship, however actors too.
I’m so conflicted: In the beginning of final season, I’d’ve liked the thought of Lizzie and Ethan collectively. However now… I don’t know. That feeling continues to be there, deep down. They usually do work together effectively, however a part of me feels this may’ve labored higher as a friendship. This storyline was primarily only a wasted rom-com alternative. I imply, Lizzie spent the complete episode gushing about Hope. Was it actually that a lot to ask for Ethan to say “Do you want her?”?
Wasted potential: MG and Kaleb are such a fantastic duo however I don’t assume the writers actually admire what they’ve received right here. I get them eager to do good, however these characters might accomplish that way more. You’ve received two vampires, one among them a ripper. You’ve backstories that we haven’t gotten but. A vampire neighborhood in school (is there any left?) that we haven’t seen because the first season. Households that we by no means see. Sure, they’re nice with comedy. However they’re additionally greater than able to dealing with some severe storylines.
Why? Let’s face it, this wasn’t a finale. As a daily episode, this was okay. However as a finale, it was removed from okay. There’s no closure to the storyline. I nonetheless don’t get why after giving them a 20 episode order, they instantly ended up with a 16 episode season in any case. Have they realized nothing from final yr? I’d’ve even settled for a several-week break if solely we might lastly wrap up this Malivore storyline and transfer on. However now, likelihood is it’ll get dragged out by season 4. I mentioned earlier this yr that I used to be going to put in writing an article about issues I’d change about this present, and I’ve each intention of sticking to that. As a result of it’s means an excessive amount of to squeeze right into a evaluation. The potential for higher is definitely what kills me. IF there was no potential, I’d’ve give up already.
Season Four needs: Quite than speculate on what season Four will convey (extra Malivore, extra Handon drama), let’s checklist some needs. 5 issues I need for my birthday in October.
1. Alaric gone.
2. A girlfriend for Hope (doesn’t must be Lizzie or Josie, you possibly can convey Maya again).
3. Kaleb’s backstory.
4. Malivore gone without end
5. No extra musicals/Star Wars hallucinations/no matter they’ll provide you with subsequent.
I’ll be fortunate to get one among these.
Greatest quotes: Lizzie: “Take him again to the college and let the grown-ups cope with one thing for as soon as.”
Josie: “I’m beginning to assume that traumatized is my everlasting resting state.”
Josie: “What sort of promise?” Hope: “Panda promise.”
That’s it for this season. Let me know within the feedback what you considered this week’s episode.
