![]() ![]() Hope and Landon were apart for the last two seasons as well. The real Landon was gone for the last two seasons when the show went downhill, hardly getting any screen time in season 4 when it got cancelled, yet people are still gonna blame him? Same with how they blame Handon too. Landon as a character, not Hope’s love for Landon, but Landon himself, didn’t have any focus since season 2 when the show was doing better. It makes no sense to me when people say Landon got the show cancelled, like… the show got cancelled during the season when Landon was barely there. Genuinely, what on earth went on in that writers’ room that led to this? What made them think any of this was okay? To make this kind of a character losing absolutely EVERYTHING over and over again the answer to everyone’s problems? It’s downright disgusting and disturbing on so many levels. Landon suffering for everyone else’s benefit was really an endless cycle that clearly never would’ve stopped, no matter how long the show went on. Because him giving up his life for them before just wasn’t enough, he’s gotta lose part of his soul too, the only thing he had left. And made it so his soul being sacrificed just so happened to be the only way to ensure the squad’s safety and happiness once again. Like they really pushed sacrificing him as far as it could go. Even after Landon’s last death, when he’d already been left behind and sacrificed how many times, since they couldn’t sacrifice his life anymore with him already dead and trapped in purgatory and cursed for eternity, they had to come up with some other new way to sacrifice him. But no, the suffering of someone who has only ever done good is always the solution to everything. And if the writers would let the characters actually make the effort to find another way, the way heroes should. He just has to be sacrificed and left behind every time for the “greater good” which wouldn’t even be a thing if the squad would just do something instead of putting it all on Hope and pushing her to let Landon die. Why was saving such a good and innocent person always portrayed as some terrible thing? The most innocent and pure character just has to be disposed of for everyone else’s protection. ![]() It happened to be this impossible feat every single time? And also happened to be “wrong” too, something that shouldn’t even be attempted, apparently. Because the writers felt the need to keep forcing those scenarios and that kind of reasoning, as if they were determined to make us, as well as the characters, believe that Landon being saved will forever be the wrong choice? As if everyone will die and the world will end if Landon gets to live? How was it so impossible for like a half a dozen supernatural “heroes” to save the day while also allowing Landon to live? The squad could just never manage to do anything to save Landon. In these same scenarios that coincidentally just kept happening over and over again, where Landon being left behind and/or killed was somehow always the only option. And of course, Landon being sacrificed was always portrayed as the right and noble choice, the only choice (when it absolutely was not the only choice, and definitely wasn’t right). Despite them supposedly being the strongest and most powerful as the “super squad” and the fact that they claimed to be heroes. And she never wanted that or considered it as an option till the writers forced it and had the squad pressuring her and gaslighting her.) Landon was treated as the weakest, well, aren’t heroes supposed to protect the weak? Aren’t they supposed to protect and save the innocent, which Landon certainly was? But no, the “heroes” of legacies sacrificed the innocent in order to protect themselves. How was the “human,” the one without powers for most of the show, who was considered the “weakest,” always the one who had to die and pay the price in order for all these supernatural beings to live? You have all these people with powers who are praised and call themselves heroes, yet they couldn’t seem to be heroes without sacrificing Landon? (I’m referring to the squad and not Hope when I say this btw, she was obviously capable of being the hero without sacrificing Landon. Landon’s suffering was somehow always necessary for everyone else to survive. Landon’s death and pain was somehow always the answer. I still can’t get over how the writers made Landon being left behind and/or sacrificed the solution to like every problem on the show. ![]()
