New DVD release, , , , , ,
The following contains Legends of Tomorrow spoilers Legends of Tomorrow Season 6 Episode 15 Legends of Tomorrow season 6 has certainly been a mixed bag. The overarching framework of displaced aliens spread through time never really clicked in the same way that many of the series’ other ridiculous setups did. (I mean, c’mon, they made magical creatures work last year, what the heck happened?)  The problems were multiple: Sara was separated from the group for half of the season, the show struggled to really integrate new character Spooner into the team until the season’s final pair of episodes, and entirely…

Nobody knows how mushrooms work) to undo the events…
