TNT’s Legends has joined the growing list of TV shows adjusting their schedules in light of Friday’s terrorist attacks in Paris.
“As a result of the recent tragic events in Paris, tonight’s originally scheduled episode of Legends has been postponed,” the network announced Monday. “Our thoughts and condolences are with the victims and their families.”
In the episode “The Legend of Curtis Ballard,” Martin in the current day searches for Kate in Paris, convinced that the peaceful protest she is attending may turn violent.
CBS also recently did some rescheduling, following Friday’s attacks, swapping out tonight’s terrorism-themed episodes of Supergirl and NCIS: LA.
Obviously it’s hard to judge not seeing the product, but are we just going to pretend Paris no longer exists?
It doesn’t say they’re scrubbing the shows, just delaying them. It today’s world liberals have succeeded in making people way too sensitive and teaching that people must be coddled. 20 years ago such episodes would have aired and no one would have questioned it, but if you were to air them now a bunch of oversensitive liberals would start calling for boycotts.
Of course, some idiot would turn this into a political discussion.
I don’t think it’s overly sensitive to be respectful of the fact that more than 100 people were brutally killed 3 days ago and hundreds more were injured. There are things more important than an episode of a TV show airing or being postponed.
Unfortunately viewers are not watching season 2, but this seems appropriate considering the Kate character is traveling with friends, and one of her friends is planning on carrying out a terrorist attack in Paris.
I’m watching :-)
I’ve recorded the episodes so far, but haven’t had time to watch them. Frankly without Ali Larter it’s not been near the top of my to watch list.
I’m watching. I like the new focus, but I admit some trouble keeping track of the new players right now.
So are they airing a different episode or a repeat of the premiere?
Repeat of premiere. —Mgmt.
Hahaha, thanks Matt!!
I wish CBS would do this instead of airing next week’s episode.
Giving up on Legends this season even though last season was a bit disappointing. I’M SERIOUS.
Is it just me, or is it insanely coincidental that “Legends” have predicted the future attack on Paris? They had to have filmed this a year ago. Just a bit out of the ordinary to be such a coincident in my eyes.
