The Vampire Diaries Universe: How Legacies Broke Its Own Rules

Legacies continued the story after both The Vampire Diaries and The Originals ended. It centered on a new group of students at the Salvatore School for the Young & Gifted, primarily aimed at fans who already knew the previous shows. Many of the characters were related to those from the original series – Hope was Klaus’s daughter, and the Saltzman twins were the children of Alaric and Caroline. The show depended a lot on viewers’ existing knowledge and didn’t quite live up to expectations set by The Originals.
