David Haller is a troubled young man who was diagnosed with schizophrenia as a child. Shuffled from one psychiatric institution to the next, in his early 30s, David meets and falls in love with a beautiful and troubled fellow patient named Syd. After a startling encounter with her, he must confront the shocking possibility that the voices he hears and the visions he sees may actually be real. With the help of Syd and a team of specialists who also possess unique and extraordinary gifts -- Ptonomy Wallace, Kerry Loudermilk and Cary Loudermilk -- David unlocks a deeply suppressed truth: he has been haunted his entire life by a malicious parasite of unimaginable power.

Critics Consensus

In its final season, Legion remains a singular piece of visually arresting, mind-bending television that never fails to surprise.

The series is characterized by a sluggish pace, marked by repetitiveness and a strained attempt at artistic depth, often resulting in confusion without purpose. Despite sporadically intriguing visuals, they fail to redeem the overall quality of the show. Character development is lacking, rendering the cast unmemorable and the underlying love story unconvincing. The supposed "omega level" power of the main character, David (Legion), falls short in delivering a genuine sense of awe, contributing to an underwhelming viewing experience. The excessive use of tedious and repetitive scenes, at times recycled from previous episodes, adds little value and becomes a tiresome narrative device. Some episodes veer into the realm of pointlessness, resembling detached Twilight Zone shorts with minimal impact on the overarching story. The promised epic mutant superpower battles are disappointingly brief and anticlimactic. Even in the final battle between David and Farouk, the utilization of powers is overshadowed by unconventional and lackluster elements, diminishing the impact of the confrontation. In contrast to other superhero series, such as DC's Titans, Legion fails to develop compelling characters and a gripping storyline. Titans, with its more complex and relatable characters, outshines Legion in delivering a satisfying viewing experience. Legion's persistent exploration of the blurred line between reality and illusion becomes a tiresome theme, detracting from the overall narrative coherence. Ultimately, Legion falls short in its attempts at both mind-bending fantasy and engaging fight scenes, leaving viewers with a sense of unfulfilled potential and frustration.

I love it when the last season of a show is the best one. Legion ended the series on a strong note and is easily one of my favorite sci-fi shows in the last 10 years.

The epic conclusion to television's most trippy superhero saga left a little something to be desired, but it's the journey that makes this show work. The direction and set design alone should qualify this series as a staple in FX's stable. Weird and constantly challenging, Legion demands to be watched carefully lest we miss an intricacy that helps decode where it is we're actually going. It can feel, at times, like participating in a scavenger hunt without a list of items. This could alienate a different viewer, but I found this feature to be exhilarating and reminiscent of shows like LOST or The Leftovers where the viewer is invited to try and crack the case of oddities before finale time. Stellar performances from Dan Stevens, Aubrey Plaza, Jean Smart, and the astounding Navid Negahban as Farouk, add to that aesthetic. It certainly meanders during its second season, and as the finish line approaches you can almost hear the showrunners start to panic about how to tie this craziness up as neatly as possible. Overall though Legion is a voyage worth taking. Its high concept approach at a Marvel property is a welcome breath of fresh air. Its arthouse aesthetic is a feast for the eyes in nearly every scene. It just feels a bit suffocated by the end, like the showrunners were having so much fun exploring that they forgot they needed a cohesive story until there were only a few episodes of runway left. Legion isn't for everyone, but for that special Venn diagram of individuals it might as well be church.
