Is this a well written show? To be honest, outside of a couple of seasons, no. But it is exactly what I need after a bad day. It's ridiculous, whacky, cheesy, corny, and fun... And it knows it is. And it's not trying to be anything else. It doesn't take itself seriously; especially in the later seasons. The first season is pretty generic superhero time travel stuff, and for what it is, takes itself too seriously. The second season is a transition and where it starts to find its footing, s3 is where it really becomes Legends of Tomorrow (and in my opinion the prime of the show), and s4 is when it dives straight into madness. At one point, it pretty much stops being a superhero show and turns into a sci-fi dramedy. So, not for everyone - if you're into superheros and comic books, then you probably won't enjoy it much past s3. If you're into serious and dark things, you probably won't enjoy it past s1 (maybe 2). If you're not good at suspending your dibelief, you probably won't enjoy it at all - But if you just want to have a good time and laugh, this is the show for you. However, it can still hit you with a few gut punches. It also has a constantly changing cast of very likeable characters (except for a select few), and a whole lot of heart.
