The Best: Legends of Tomorrow
Even under the strain of the pandemic, Legends of Tomorrow remains one of the most effortlessly entertaining shows on TV. While season six didn’t reach the highs of the previous season (again, there was a pandemic), the show still managed to surprise by pitting the Legends against a variety of aliens and new villain Bishop (a delightfully smarmy Raffi Barsoumian). Only this show could pull off storylines about John Constantine’s (Matt Ryan) dark magic addiction and Nate (Nick Zano) literally intercepting a nuclear football in JFK’s office, and still feel balanced. Now, in season seven, the Legends are facing off against ruthless versions of themselves from an alternate timeline—a premise so potentially great the show will almost certainly be in 2022’s Best TV list, too.
