Without getting too politically into the weeds, Legacy has a tendency to fall back on some fairly well-worn and xenophobic ideas with regards to how it frames its bad guys.
For better or for worse, this continuation of traditional 24 tropes and concepts bleeds into the central narrative as well.
It’s commendable to see the show tackle such an important idea, but the execution is far from perfect early on.
It’s not enough to completely scuttle our enjoyment of the newly rebooted series, but it has us wondering if Legacy will try anything new as the season progresses.
