Fans of The CW’s Legacies are already not very happy about being in the middle of another hiatus, but the network put salt on the wound by cancelling the show altogether this week.
We confirm when Season 4 Episode 18 of Legacies will return, explain why The CW canceled the show, and provide an episode guide for the final season.
Created by Julie Plec for The CW, Legacies first premiered in 2018 as a spin-off to The Originals, which in turn, was a spin-off to The Vampire Diaries, starring Danielle Rose Russell, Aria Shahghasemi, Kaylee Bryant, Matt Davis, Jenny Boyd and more.

Legacies Season 4 Episode 18 return date
Legacies Season 4 Episode 18, titled By the End of This, You’ll Know Who You Were Meant to Be, will serve as the third-last episode, airing on Thursday, June 2, 2022, at 9/8c on The CW.
Episode 18 will be directed by Lauren Petzke and written by Thomas Brandon.
Legacies is currently on a month-long hiatus after Episode 17 premiered on May 5 and The CW has not issued a reason why. CarterMatt believes it may be so that Walker can be paired with Legacies on the June schedule, but for now, fans will need to watch repeats on the network.
