So we are up to episode 5, and so far, though the story is a bit weak and slow, this might end up being a decent show. Now I am a huge fan of the movie Legion, which this is based off. It picks up a few years later after the movie, and though there are some questionable choices for characters and places, it seems to be holding its own. Of course they had to add the lesbian/bi-sexual/gay characters in there, after all, they must cover their bases and be a diverse show. They have quite a bit of sex, half naked and fully naked people, which honestly, I don't see why... I would much rather let my imagination fill in the blanks then let them do it. Afterall, my imagination is soooo much nastier than anything they could come up with. I am curious why they show Michael (yes, the archangel) to be this sex crazed person, okay, maybe sex crazed is a bit much... but they show Gabriel to be a bit more reserved. Considering how they are portraying the two, I would think it would be the other way around. It is very hard for me though, being a Buffy fan, to see Mr. Head without his delicious accent, and knowing that Alex is actually from Australia. They have learned well, bravo to the voice coaches. The story itself needs to pick up a bit, and Alex needs to grow a pair. Right now I think that the "Grand Poobah" character has bigger balls than Alex, I seriously think he could take him in a fight. So after 5 episodes, I find it worth watching for now... let's just hope it picks up so there can be a season 2.
