But in a good way. I hope.
Following up on Arrow and The Flash, we will now have DC's Legends of Tomorrow (which managed to beat out Marvel's Agents of SHIELD as an awkward title), which will feature an array of super–heroes and super-villains, rounded up by time-hopping Rip Hunter to avert a dire future.
It has possibilities, and it's coming from the same teams as have been very successful with the ostensibly-solo shows. Indeed, the cast seems to mostly be side characters and antagonists from those shows, meaning plenty of opportunities for cross-overs.
Yes, this is the Future TV that I dreamed of as a kid.
