Unlike The Flash and The arrow, this show doesn't take itself seriously. Yes it's cheesy and the jokes aren't always the best. But that doesn't change the fact that it's enjoyable. It's Legends of Tomorrow
We have a lot of teams, for example Flash team, Arrow team, etc. This team is almost like my favorite team, in Hart of dixie. Funny characters, good dialogs, funny writing, and good casting.
Legends of Tomorrow is a very creative and just fun show which I find myself liking despite how ridiculous it can be. What starts out as a superhero show soon becomes less superhero and more character based show. The cast changes almost every season but that works out for the show most of the time.
What's ironic is it starts out to be a serious show with little comedy but eventually embraces its ridiculousness and truly finds its footing.
Its sad that they cancelled this show after 7 seasons, not just because of the cliffhanger but because, imo, it just needed one more season to say goodbye to all its characters. But it was fun while it lasted and its definitely worth a watch!!!
PS: The score of this show, 6.8 is just too low, I expected it to be much higher but it at least deserves a 7.3 or higher.

Legends of Tomorrow is one of the more underrated DC shows. It's about a time traveling group of ragtag heroes and former villains that try to prevent events from happening that would change the world we live in. This show knows exactly what it wants to be and that's absolutely bananas. It's a great show to just turn your brain off and escape to have some fun. The cast changes a little though out the seasons but each new character brings something new to the show and continues to make the show feel fresh. It's too bad it ended a season early and in a cliffhanger but it's still definitely worth watching.
Let's be open about "Legends of Tomorrow": Of course the stories are rubbish, and the acting is (with some exceptions) nowhere near Marvel Netflix quality. But this series has something that Arrow (which tries to be incredibly gritty) and Flash (which tries to be incredibly witty) fail to display: Entertainment value! Legends of Tomorrow is like the playground of the Berlantiverse where you can take underused characters or crazy story ideas and make an episode out of it no matter what happened the week before. This is even more so in the second season where the constant need to antagonize Vandal Savage has gone.
The writers can send their heroes straight through the ages from feudal Japan to the Wild West, from the 80s to the future. There is an overall storyline but that is not what makes this series fun: What makes it fun is the snappy banter of Snart and Rory, the crazy jumping through time trying to save the timeline while having no qualms causing time paradoxes themselves (constantly!) and not giving a damn about making sense. Doesn't sound like a modern TV show? Well that's because it sounds like a classic comic book, existing just to be enjoyed and to have people have fun with it.
Yes, the bogus stories and the crappy acting may turn many people off. But I'll take Legends of Tomorrow over any season of Arrow with its abysmal flashback story lines (and its own crappy acting) anytime.
