I agree. I've watched other strange or odd shows like Twin Peaks, XFiles, etc. and found as long as they advanced the story somewhat each episode, I stuck with them. Each episode of this just seems to spin its wheels and not advance the plot much, if at all.
difference here is that this is actually going somewhere, and there is plenty of source material to back that up. the other shows mentioned seemed like they started with a good premise and didn't know where to go
It is all well and good to have a destination in mind and loads of source material to guide them. But, this show hasn’t given us more onsight into who David is since Episode 1.
yeah, can't really argue with that. It i hard for me to say since i know the character somewhat good, but i am sure that a lot of what is on makes sense to me and none at all to a lot. Especially this latest story with David climbing the chain into the one room, etc.
hmmmm, maybe keep watching.........
I also watch the show on a channel that has commercials. Not sure if it does on the originating network. But, I find having to fast forward through the commercials takes away from my enjoyment of the show. I'm used to doing it for shows on NBC,Fox, etc. But those have been shot and edited to accommodate commercial breaks. Legion feels like the breaks have been crammed in and don't feel like they should be there.
I guess I feel like it's explaining things as it progresses... dropping answers to random things throughout. but how much explaining do super-powers need, ultimately? that's why my expectations are lower- like I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop once the plot just gets into more super-powery comic book xmen stuff.modogg said:
i will say for Legion, his powers (if it is like in the comic book) are harder to explain. Somewhat like the Scarlet Witch (
), but his powers are not as simple as most of the X-Men characters
what confused me a bit in this episode was the changes in characters. David i get, but Syd had a bit of a change too, and so did Autonomy and the head lady. I guess she could be distracted by her husband's news and that kind of threw her off, but it did seem prevalent in the episode and i wonder if it is a result of something else effecting everybody
the actress is all over the place for me. sometimes she's smoking hot, sometimes not so much. the nude stuff was... dunno- weird hips and ###. 
same here. nice face, but she has saddle bags for sure. Still damn cute.
You missed the part where they devoted an entire episode around it and it's still not resolved.
This said, Aubrey Plaza is so amazing (and I've loved her since Parks & Rec) and she looked damn hot last night.
For me, it was hard to get into when I felt that I had no clue what was going on. I guessed and wondered what was real and what was in his head, but it wasn't until the last episode until alot of things started falling in place. I'm sure the lack of excitement is from the casual viewers not knowing/finding context in the storyline to stay interested. Cool visual effects, but hard to follow.
