“DC’s Legends of Tomorrow” Cancelled at The CW
by Emily Nagle
After seven seasons on The CW, “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow” has been cancelled.
“Thank you to our fans; your love and passion for our strange band of misfits has made every break, every script, every daily, every cut, and every mix worth all the hard work,” Co-showrunner Keto Shimizu posted to Twitter on Friday night. “We see you, we love you, and you’ll always have a place on the Waverider. ❤️”
News of the series’ cancellation arrives right after “Batwoman” got stopped at three seasons. The reason for its cancellation is unclear, but seems to have been unexpected, as the show ended on a cliffhanger.
First airing in 2016, “Legends of Tomorrow” is a spin-off of “The Flash” and “Arrow” featuring characters from both shows, in addition to new characters. It has been praised for its visual effects, humor, and quirky characters.
While this DC series will not be returning with new episodes, DC fans can get their fix with more seasons of “The Flash,” in addition to “Lois and Walker,” both of which got renewed back in March. Other shows set to return to the network include All American, Kung Fu, Nancy Drew, Riverdale, and Walker.
