The CW Orders More Episodes Of LEGENDS OF TOMORROW As Season 2 Gets Even Bigger
Season two of Legends of Tomorrow was only expected to run for thirteen episodes, but The CW has added to that thanks to strong reviews and ratings. Hit the jump for details on those extra instalments.
We're already four episodes into Legends of Tomorrow season two (the fifth airs tomorrow), and considering the fact that it's only set to consist of thirteen instalments, many fans worried that the Legion of Doom won't get the screentime they deserve. Well, The CW is clearly happy with how it's been doing for them as The Hollywood Reporter confirms that they've added four more episodes.
That takes us to seventeen, and it likely helps that Legends of Tomorrow is doubling the ratings of newcomers like Frequency and No Tomorrow (pairing it with the long running Supernatural was clearly a decision which paid off). The series never beats Arrow, The Flash, and Supergirl, but it averages a 0.9 rating and close to 2.4 million viewers in live-plus-same-day showings. That's obviously pretty good!
