Legends – Series Premiere Tonight on Bravo (Canada)

Sean Bean, Ali Larter, Tina Majorino star in the new drama series Legends that premieres in Canada on Bravo tonight at 9pm.  Based on the novel Legends: A Novel of Dissimulation by Robert Littell for which he won the LA Times Book Prize in 2005.  Developed by Howard Gordon (24, Homeland), Jeffrey Nachmanoff (The Day After Tomorrow, Traitor, The Tourist) & Mark Bomback (Live Free or Die Hard, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, Fifty Shades of Grey).  A real mixed bag of experience, should be interesting.

Also on Bravo the 2nd season of Graceland is coming to a close.  If you haven’t seen this show yet it’s something that would make a great end of summer binge-watch.

So how does it stand up? Pretty well actually.
