Any LEGENDS fans?

Legends has filled the hole in my world that was left when Burn Notice was canceled. Granted, it doesn't have the humor, and it doesn't have Bruce Campbell, but Sean Bean more than makes up for it.

I've been reassuring myself that since he's the lead character, they can't kill him, but now I'm not so sure. Maybe a second viewing of the season finale is necessary to figure out what exactly happened, because I'm a bit confused about who the villains are.

It's interesting on another level, the actors have been in other multiple-identity shows. bananas Oct 2014 #18

Yes, I watch and am reading the Outlander series....a little late on the reading by quite a few years.

Trouble is that now I see Sam Heughan as Jamie...lol.

A younger Sean Bean might have been a good fit

If I had read the books earlier and seen him in films earlier, I would have felt the same way.

I can't imagine anyone being hotter than the guy playing Jamie.

And I never make comments like that.

Yep, he's a cutie. Have you followed the twitter pages for the cast?

I enjoy reading them now and then.

They are running some story lines that go right along with things we have discussed on the internet for years.

I do like Sean Bean.

Good news is that it has been renewed for S02.

Ali Larter argued with her mirror image in Heroes:

Linda Park was in a mirror universe in Star Trek Enterprise "In a Mirror, Darkly"

Morris Chestnut had a dual identity in "V":

Ryan is a Visitor but belongs to the Fifth Column...

and he looks like an actor in Buffy who also had a dual identity:
