The most bonkers show on television, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow: The Complete Fifth Season, is now available for viewers to watch on Blu-ray, DVD, and Digital.
DC’s Legends of Tomorrow and Stargirl were anomalies in the Arrowverse in that they got to finish their seasons. Unlike the other series, the story arc presented here is complete.
The Legends certainly got to have quite a bit of fun this season. Even though things took a turn for the serious, there were still also some episodes that are classic Legends. “The One Where We’re Trapped on TV” may not be the best episode of the season but it’s the the type of episode that makes this series what it is. This season also saw Brandon Routh and Courtney Ford opting to leave the series. Their final episode couldn’t have been more touching but even though it gets sentimental, it’s not without Legends being Legends.
SYNOPSIS
DC’s Legends of Tomorrow follows a group of misfit heroes as they fight, talk, and sing their way through protecting the timeline from aberrations, anomalies, and anything else that threatens to mess with history. After saving the world via the power of song and themed entertainment in last season’s finale, the Legends are major celebrities. Some struggle with the transition from lovable losers to A-list stars, while others start letting fame go to their heads. When a documentary crew decides to film the Legends in action, distracting them from their original mission, Astra Logue frees history’s most notorious villains from Hell in a bid for power. It’s up to the Legends to forgo fame and stop these reanimated souls (who they quickly dub “Encores”) from wreaking havoc on the timeline, whether it’s Rasputin popping out of his coffin and trying to become an immortal tsar or Marie Antoinette (and her head) turning the French Revolution into a deadly, non-stop party.
