    I haven't watched live TV in so long but this pulled me in enough that I was frustrated by the commercials in episode 2. Really digging it so far
     
  2. This show is the best trip ever. Love all the memory/dream scenes. Some of the sequences in this are legitimately unnerving and creepy.

    Starting my review for this week's episode and trying to not just be like "THIS IS GREAT. WONDERFUL. GOOD JOB."

  4. I struggle to provide in-depth analysis myself. There's a lot going on in each episode and all I can muster up is "This is the best show on TV! Those visuals, woah! It's all amazing!"

  7. Good review! I'll note that David referred to that thing as the "demon with yellow eyes" in previous episodes. I remember noticing that it was strange how Syd can see it, but the others couldn't, but I didn't think about it. I assume it has something to do with the fact that she's closer to David and more connected that she can see past whatever is preventing the others from seeing it. I agree with the romance feeling natural and not forced. There's something appealing about a "romance of the minds," as David referred to it last ep. I like that dynamic.

    Oops! Totally looked slightly more orange to me haha. Yeah and I also get the feeling that there's remnants of stuff from their body swap.
     
  9. Oh right, there's definitely that too. There's a lot of intrigue in the fact that we don't know the full extent of their powers yet, particularly David's.

    How are the ratings? Or what's the likelihood of a renewal? So scared this show will get cancelled. I fear for it like before with Hannibal. It's too beautiful to go away.

    It's a sure thing for renewal

    I heard the seasons are being written to be fairly self contained so that they can build off them but if it gets cancelled, still feels like a conclusion. Or that was seemingly the plan. I like this a lot

    I feel like I'm not putting the pieces together yet, but I like the ride anyway. Last night's episode got real meta
     
  18. Ya I may have gotten gotten a little lost yesterday, but I think I got the gist of it all. The Kerry/Cary thing is sort of weird and cool.

    Yeah, I felt like I was starting to understand the show and then last nights episode was an hour of me being confused. Still, super dope.

    So the Devil with the Yellow Eyes seems to be the source of Davids powers? Or David when he's using his powers. Also when Lenny/Benny put his/her hand on David's shoulders, the fingers seemed to belong to the devil as well. Also, probably unrelated, but Philly's earrings looked just like the ladder that leads to Jermaine Clement's ice house
    I love this show. I hate waiting a week between episodes.

    Still stoked on this show. And really glad I decided to review it so I can attempt to make more sense of it haha. Here's this week's review if anyone is interested: Review: Legion S01E04: Chapter 4

    The Lenny/Benny thing was real weird, but it's like. Everything is just getting weirder by the episode. in a good way

    If i'm not mistaken that character in the comics is actually a guy, but when aubrey plaza got the part she asked them not to change any of the original dialogue.

    @gravebug Prestigious

    I remember reading that as well, but I didn't expect them to rewrite it as a dual gender role. It's cool. I'm bummed we're already halfway through the season. I don't want this to end, as much as I want to know what the fuck is going on

    That episode was awesome. And an excellent use of Jemaine.
