Legion is good stuff. Three episodes in. Had no real idea of what to expect, since I hadn't seen a single trailer for the show or anything. Just occasionally saw a screenshot to go along along with article headlines. It's, uh, something alright. Way more psychological thriller than actual superhero show, but I guess that part will come later maybe. Sometimes it's hard to know what's real and what's not.

And I take it this isn't in the same canon as the X-Men movies? Obviously not in the MCU because FOX.

Apparently if you ask various people working on the show, you'll get both answers on that question. Also if you ask people at FOX you'll get the same set of answers.

No one knows.

The Flash kinda felt like filler again. I mean there were some things that mattered in it, but the villain was a total throwaway and they still know nothing. Just reveal the Savitar identity so people can say "I knew it" even though they seem to think nobody will guess who it is

Woo, finished Legion.

What did you think?

Did you watch the mid credits scene?

The storytelling and artistic style were really solid. I guess I thought they spent too much time in the fake hospital, considering how short the season was. I get that they weren't trying to make the plot about some big thing, but just an internal struggle for him to be himself so it's fine, but Chapter 6 was still kinda slow.

And Aubrey Plaza was amazing.

Oh and yes.

Chapter 6 was the best of the episodes though

I mean, I certainly enjoy alternate reality type episodes, but I think they're better served later on in series where we've gotten more time to spend with the cast of characters.
---

Woooo, iZombie back tonight!

Also Agents of SHIELD!
---

That was a great season finale for LoT, lots of funny moments.

7 was my favorite. The Boléro sequence is one of the best things I've seen on TV in recent memory.

SHIELD is so good this season

Haha, of course no matter who's in charge, Ward is still a double agent.

Well he already won a match at Summerslam. This was next.
---

iZombie was good, but not as funny as usual. Understandable given what they had to cover after the finale, though.
---

Just finishing up Legends now and oh my god that is seriously my favourite season finale of all these shows, easily. Just pure fun epicness loaded with fanservice.
---

Man, Legends of Tomorrow had so many incredible logic fails. I really enjoyed it regardless. I'm hoping somehow some way Thawne lives. Because he's such an awesome character.

Also, iZombie yaaaaaaay!
---

Legends completely tossed logic out the window the whole season really, definitely the "just fun" show of Arrowverse. Which is how it should be, what with Legends being essentially a crossover spin-off it ought to go full on fan-service. Season 1 didn't and it sucked.

but yeah Thawne seriously needs to lives, he dominated the season. Best Arrowverse villain, he made Flash S1 great and he made Legends great.

Actually if I think about it... I honestly don't care about Arrowverse without Thawne. Arrow's first 2 seasons were cool and all but even before Arrow became unbearable with 3&4, I wasn't much of a fan. Part of why it was so easy for me to drop.

Flash has s2 was disappointing and s3 is even worse. Flash season 1 though was GOAT material.

Legends 1 sucked. Legends 2 is fun greatness.

Supergirl is always "who cares"



Sooooo..... the secret to a good season is Thawne, clearly.
