It's gleefully self-indulgent and artsy, but Legion is still tremendous three seasons in. Fantastic performances and a very entertaining approach to what an X-Men spinoff TV series starring Matthew from Downton Abbey and Aubrey Plaza could be.


I do like both actors a lot, but the subject matter has me hesitant.

Dark season 2 was even better than season 1.

If it helps, I've finished it now and it's remarkably good. Not at all what you'd expect from a superhero show, which it doesn't at all feel like even before you get onto the set-pieces like rap battles or musical numbers.It's from the same guy behind the remarkably good Fargo tv series, if that helps.

The cast covering a Pink Floyd song in the final episode is just one of many highlights. Honestly bowled over by this show in a way I never expected from an X-Men spinoff, and it's easily one of the best tv series I've seen at least this year. Fantastic cast, excellent story, with a beautiful romance and a central protagonist and antagonist deeper and richer than anything else I've seen in a long time. Don't let the whole comic book bullshit aspect of it put you off.

Looks like they cancelled Cops. The only good show on that vapid gaseous wasteland.
:lol:

Somehow made it through one episode of Obi Wan and have to ask how you people who watch all these Marvel/Disney shows manage it... boringest thing I've seen in ages!

I'm a sucker for all of that shit. And even I am finding the Star Wars stuff tiring.

I don't watch any TV shows but I came here to say that it is good see you here, Kyle, dear virtual friend (I hope I remember your name correctly).
