Crisis on Infinite Earths was a crossover event featuring episodes of the television series Supergirl, Batwoman, The Flash, Arrow, and Legends of Tomorrow on The CW. Inspired by the DC Comics storyline of the same name, heroes from from throughout The CW's DC Comics inspired shows join together to stop a super villain from destroying reality. The crossover's events result in what has been called the "Arrowverse" being rebooted transferring characters from a variety of multiverse settings to one uniform location and timeline. Enjoy these five episodes as their own mini-series before diving into the complete season of Legends of Tomorrow.
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 is up to the Legends to forgo fame to stop these reanimated souls from wreaking havoc on the timeline. With Rasputin popping out of his coffin trying to become an immortal tsar and Marie Antoinette turning the French Revolution into a deadly party the Legends are going to be busy cleaning up the timeline in Season 5.
While battling historically inspired villains, the Legends also find themselves in some goofy fights too which adds some extra whimsy and fun to the series. For example episode fourteen "The One Where We're Trapped on TV" has the heroes encounter a villain who warps reality so that heroes are trapped in scenarios matching scenes from television shows spoofing Downton Abbey, Friends, and Star Trek. Some of the reason this show is so entertaining is that it doesn't take its super hero format too seriously providing humorous content that blends in with their action adventures. Give yourself a fun self-indulgence by vegging on the couch binge watching Legends of Tomorrow while snacking on junk food your doctor says you shouldn't be eating.
