Legion T.V. series

Hmm, good for fans, but I don't think I'll be watching season 3. How many episodes are left in season 2, again?

2 more. (12345678910chars)

Yay I'm so happy it got renewed.

It's going to take two really good episodes to save this season for me. I'll tune in for season 3, but the show will have a short leash for me.

Sometimes it hits perfectly (love the guy playing Farouk), but most of the time I'm just rolling eyes because it tries so damned hard.

The Jon Hamm narrated intros are so full of themselves it's hard to digest.

My god Aubrey Plaza just keeps getting hotter

Am I the only one who'd prefer her with David over Syd? David and Syd's hookup always seemed sort of artificial in the first season (nothing against Syd, Rachel's performance, their on-screen chemistry). It worked at Clockworks, but somehow it doesn't seem to "fit" in the second season.

Okay, so we can now actually determine the time period this show takes place in now. From this exchange:

Oliver: Remember Bombay?
Melanie: It's called Mumbai now.

The official name change happened in 1995. Oliver was in ice for 21 years. So it's set in after 1995 to present. I'm leaning toward early 2010s.

Unless it was a throwaway dialogue without much research put into it.

Lenny has talked about watching videos on the Internet.

Lenny isn't into men.

[Ambaryerno]

Lenny isn't into men.

It's made pretty clear in the most recent episode she DOES have feelings for David.

It's made pretty clear in the most recent episode she DOES have feelings for David.

That will be interesting to see.

There could be a reason why she might have them now.

It seems like they're showing the David-Syd romance sort of faltering or being unmasked as artificial in season 2. At least that's my view on it.

I think a lot depends on Future Syd. Her orientation to everything might tell us a lot about whether or not David-Syd is doomed or healthy.

For me, Lenny works not so much as a David love interest but more as a like chaotic explosive buddy. Like I think of Lenny as just a cool friend of David not really potential gf. Like other people said, she might be a lesbian as well. But I definitely agree with you about Syd, I mean Syd even literally said out loud as much that their relationship is kind of empty and hollow

Yep.

Great episode. Can't wait for next week.

[Tazpocalapse]

Yes. i'm hoping we get some resolution on the orb and other unexplained things like the woman that Ptonmey is seeing in the mainframe. I also wonder what a season 3 factors in to things going forward.

[SpiderClops]

I give up. Can't handle it anymore. Ten minutes in the recent episode and I'm like, "Nope. I'm done with you."

So sad it couldn't keep me interested for two episodes.

They went straight Si Spurrier X-Men Legacy with that scene. The wordrobe, hair, the premonition that Legion will end the world. They've always used the vibe from Sis book but wow. Cut straight from it this opening was.
