Review of Legendary

Legendary (2020–2022)
4/10
Sloppy and shoddy, this isn't what they promised
14 July 2020
The show has talented dancers in it. But that's where it ends. They're not really given chance to properly show it. They focus more on the judges to promote them, the MC saying random words, everything else than the actual talent.

And what is shown doesn't seem that talented. I expected a lot more. It seems they just throw tantrums on the floor and try to suck up to the judges instead of shoving what they surely can do. Let's just play dress up and do tantrums because that's what it is. Nah, that's not vogue.

And then let's show more judges and make them kings and queens and let them be arbitrary. I know it's always been arbitrary, but if you make it into a show at least provide some rational feedback instead of obvious "they looked at me a bit wrong so I don't like it."

Not to mention we have to have one judge sing a "song" in the last episode because it's all about them.

Editing is so choppy it makes your head spin. It helps to hide the talent. The MC sa-sa-sasa-saying wo-wo-wowo-wo-words is so annoying. It's just random gibberish. Or maybe I'm just not in the scene and don't see the greatness?

In any case. Pose was good. This isn't. I'm sad that a made up tv show like Pose showed more talent than a show supposedly showing real talent.

I hope it won't get a second season, or if it does it really needs to find a structure and become coherent and focus on the talent.
