CW Releases Synopsis For Legends Of Tomorrow Season 3

During today's upfronts, the CW has released a new synopsis for the third season of DC's Legends of Tomorrow that seems a bit spoilery.

After the defeat of Eobard Thawne and his equally nefarious Legion of Doom, the Legends face a new threat created by their actions at the end of last season. In revisiting a moment in time that they had already participated in, they have essentially fractured the timeline and created anachronisms – a scattering of people, animals, and objects all across time! Our team must find a way to return all the anachronisms to their original timelines before the time stream falls apart. But before our Legends can jump back into action, Rip Hunter (Arthur Darvill) and his newly established Time Bureau call their methods into question. With the Time Bureau effectively the new sheriffs in town, the Legends disband – until Mick Rory (Dominic Purcell) discovers one of them in the middle of his well-deserved vacation in Aruba. Seeing this as an opportunity to continue their time travelling heroics, Sara (Caity Lotz) wastes no time in getting the Legends back together. We reunite with billionaire inventor Ray Palmer (Brandon Routh), the unconventional historian-turned-superhero Nick Heywood (Nick Zano), and Professor Martin Stein (Victor Garber) and Jefferson "Jax" Jackson (Franz Drameh), who together form the meta-human Firestorm.

Once reunited, the Legends will challenge the Time Bureau's authority over the timeline and insist that however messy their methods may be, some problems are beyond the Bureau's capabilities. Some problems can only be fixed by Legends.

Based on the characters from DC, DC'S LEGENDS OF TOMORROW is from Bonanza Productions Inc. in association with Berlanti Productions and Warner Bros. Television, with executive producers Greg Berlanti ("Arrow," "The Flash," "Supergirl"), Marc Guggenheim ("Arrow," "Trollhunters," "Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters"), Andrew Kreisberg ("Arrow," "The Flash," "Eli Stone," "Warehouse 13"), Phil Klemmer ("The Tomorrow People," "Chuck") and Sarah Schechter ("Arrow," "The Flash").

No mention of a big bad for the season. Rip Hunter and his newly formed Time Bureau seem to be the opponents and no mention of Amaya (Maisie Richardson-Sellers). It sounds like the new season may be broken down into smaller stories involving getting certain people, animals and objects back to their home timelines… animals?

No hints on new crew members for the Waverider nor who will be part of the Time Bureau… time to dig into the DC Archives.

DC's Legends of Tomorrow will air Tuesdays at 9 PM on the CW.
