The Vampire Diaries spinoff, Legacies, was a popular four-season installment of the TVD Universe and some fans are wondering where they can watch the show for free. Legacies is actually a spinoff of The Originals, which is itself a spinoff of TVD. Still, each of the three shows features similar characters and shares a consistent tone across the vampire fantasy romantic drama story. The series stars Hope Mikaelson (Danielle Rose Russell), the descendant of a powerful line of magical beings, as she navigates through the Salvatore School for the Young and Gifted.
Legacies premiered in October 2018 and lasted for four seasons. There was originally a plan for Legacies season 5, but it was eventually discarded. Those four seasons of the show were well-received by critics and audiences alike, with the first season earning an 82% on Rotten Tomatoes. Fast-paced and lore-filled, Legacies managed to overcome the bar set by its sister series thanks in part to its teen-high setting, almost giving the show an X-Men-like feel. For those interested in returning to the Salvatore School, there are a few options.
