Elite posted:This was probably my vote for weakest episode of the show too. I wouldn't say it got too weird for me (I liked the weird parts of the episode the most), but it was a really slow episode overall. It did have some cool/interesting parts, but it also had a lot of plodding "huh, something is wrong here. Not sure what it is though" conversations... which really missed the mark for me because we already know EXACTLY what's wrong about what's happening. The plot device where everyone gets a memory wipe and all feel like something is wrong and then are rescued by someone - possibly from outside - coming in and snapping them out of it with a "Remember who you are!" is common in comics. I only got into comics for a short time in my childhood and I still remember it being used dozens of times. I thought the "we're back at the mental hospital but doesn't this seem wrong?" part dragged on too long, but the payoff was amazing. Yeah, the show should win an award for the way it made getting a lapdance from Aubrey Plaza look menacing.

I have no idea what you just said. I seem to remember reading comics with Legion in them. I just don't remember anything about him.

Is this show a limited mini series with start and end or is it going to continue on? I want to know if we'll get closure or if they'll draw out his struggles for multiple seasons. Was hoping we'd see him actually able to wield his powers knowledgeably at some point but after 6 episodes it looks like he's still not close

Turns out Man-Thing is the only other character in the show that isn't just a figment of David's imagination.

I really hope the end of this season is "So David, the good news is we got rid of the parasitic dimension warping evil super mutant that was misdiagnosed as schizophrenia. The bad news is you actually literally have schizophrenia anyway."

E2M2 posted:FX is really killing it with the shows recently. Is it just me paying more attention to poo poo, or has the market, or whatever, for more niche shows like this grown? Netflix with some of their great shows, and FX too, where they don't care about getting max ratings so aren't limited like they would be on cable?

Traditional cable has been dying for decades at this point, you don't need Nielson ratings anymore when you can stream anything you want.

Also content owners/producers have realized that money from streaming and DVD sales continuing year after year is a thing, so immediate success isn't as critical.

And by that you mean 5 years at the most with a 5% drop in those 5 years. Decades would be at a minimum their height of subscribers was 1997. 2011-2012 was peak cable subscribers of 100.8M with 2016 ending at 96M. Don't expect hollywood culture to pivot on just a few years of economic numbers.

Just finished the latest episode. I feel like watching this week to week was a mistake. I kinda just want answers now and the wait is killing me. Also, I remembered this quick flash happening near the end of the pilot: It probably has nothing to do with the most recent plot development, but I remember thinking that they would jump back to Clockworks at some point later in the story when I first saw this. Max fucked around with this message at 23:08 on Mar 19, 2017 |
