TNT has pulled Monday’s episode of “Legends” in the wake of Friday’s terrorist attacks in Paris, TheWrap has learned.

“As a result of the recent tragic events in Paris, tonight’s originally scheduled episode of Legends has been postponed,” the network said in a statement. “Our thoughts and condolences are with the victims and their families.”

The episode, titled “The Legend of Curtis Ballard,” is being pulled from the schedule because some of it’s plot elements are too similar to Friday’s events, including a terror attack in the French city. The episode’s official description reads, “It’s a race against time as Martin searches for Kate in Paris. He’s convinced the peaceful protest she’s attending may turn violent at the hands of her friend Ifti, a boy with radical beliefs.”

The network has not yet decided what will air in the episode’s place.
