Not sold on this just yet... I think this type of show would do better with netflix treatment.. its so weird/out there that it would be better to not have to wait a whole week to see wtf is going on.
 
Yooo! This is the best Marvel...fuck that, this is the best tv show ever! only watched the first ep. and will wait till the season finishes so I can binge watch the whole season.

Not familiar with the character at all, someone school me on what exactly his powers/history are or what i can read to get a better knowledge.

He's the son of Professor X. Like his father he is telepathic just much more powerful than his father and even Jean Grey because he has other powers. Only hook is he also has dissociative personality disorder which paired with his powers makes him dangerous. He also triggered the Age of Apocalypse that rocked the X-Men in the Marvel Comics universe back in the 90's.

Also he can have other powers and bring those personalities to reality making them real. Hence the reason he's called Legion. He's basically a one man Mutant army.

I'm not sure what direction the show will take but In the books he's basically an omega level psionic/ reality warper. Each personality manifests different abilities. Looks like they're bringing in shadow king which is cool.
 
I don't wanna give up on it but I'm about to.

I just can't get into this shit I've watched 3 full episodes & it's just not entertaining to me needs more Action

this show is boring and all over the place

brah, i was thinking the same thing after like the first 20 min of the pilot

i havent picked it back up since

i think all these networks are trying to cash in on having at least a comic book property, but like someone just mentioned, netflix and even the CW has created stories that are compelling and interesting to watch.

Legion, just from the few mins i watched seems rushed af. Idk...or maybe the lead character is just not interesting. From what i've read, the comic he is based on is pretty powerful, but the actor just not doing anything for me

Had to watch this episode twice but I'm starting to think those people in the asylum are personalities of his.

It really started to pick up with the last episode.

Probably because one of his personalities (or the parasite)........the fat baldhead guy........took over.

Not sure if the show is gonna be completely true to the comics, but it seems like they're portraying the fat dude as a parasite instead of a personality.

That old man in division told his girl "Beware, he wears a human face."

So it was probably him that was smashing her in that dreamland or wherever that was.
 
I tried but the show just ain't for me. The action parts are really good. Ireally like the part when he was in the pool and had to go underwater so he could be broken out of the place.

I took the show off my DVR list just couldn't get into. it was boring to me outside of a few parts here and there. It wasn't making any sense to me.

Probably the Shadow King. He can jump from host to host. If it is SK, he may have been inhabiting Bird's husband
