It is to the great credit of Legends Of Tomorrow that the show’s writers have discovered a very particular sweet spot, one shared by some of TV’s best comedies. One example: The late, lamented American Vandal, which, like Legends, found that it could somehow balance absurdity, big ideas, and pain on the head of a pin. American Vandal found pathos in handjob animation and fruit ninjas. Legends found genuine emotional catharsis in a giant Beebo, in a fun montage, in the name “Rayge.” The show has taught its audience to enjoy the WTFN of it all, but also to probe a little more deeply, to consider big questions, to interrogate the stories of the heroes and villains alike, and to assume that many of those we encounter might be a little of both.
