With its large casting, the makers of the show are juggling to put things into place and to come up with a great story offering screen time to most of the characters.

But with many characters aboard wave rider, it is becoming more difficult to do so.

As the sixth season of the episode is on its way to production and premier and addition of many characters is the biggest problem that “Legends of Tomorrow” is facing.

The show has just added its 20th regular character Esperanza “Spooner” Cruz joins the Waverider, the show is now at 2nd position in a number of regular cast members in the Arrowverse, and is just 1 less than 21 regular cast members Arrow has in its 8 seasons.

As the show premiered with only 9 regular cast members, the numbers so fall with each season is fluctuating as either new characters are introduced as the replacement of others or according to the story demands.

In its season 5, it has 10 regular cast members with other recurring members but only 2 of them Sara Lance and Mick Rory remain from the original assemble.

With the crowded characters, it is difficult to effectively make use of each and give meaningful challenges.

But having crowded with characters has both helped and hurt the show.

As being crowded, it brings uneven writing for many solid characters like Nate and Ray. Also introducing Hawkgirl and Hawkman in season 1 and Kid flash in season3 were flop moves.

Where introducing Mona and Gary was such a comic relief and somehow managed to fill the void which the strong characters like Martin Stein and Leonard Snart left.

The departure of Rip Hunter facilitated the progress of Sara Lance’s from being an Assasin to becoming ship captain.

The additions of the charismatic Zari in season 3 and her brother, Behrad (who becomes a cast regular in season 6), were also a huge boost. Another brilliant twist was bringing Nora Darkh onto the Waverider.

Let’s see how it goes this time with the addition!
