Outsiders season 2 - Amazing season. Heads above the first season. Just found out the show has been cancelled. In so angry now. Another great show cut down in its prime. The good continue to die young

10/10

LEGION S1 - 8/10

This surreal series is loosely based in the X-Men universe but instead of treading familiar comic book territory it takes some bold and creative chances that pay off for those interested in the ride. Visually it's mesmerizing and surreal is really and understatement as much of the series takes place on alternate planes of reality. Some very interesting concepts and direction are showcased here. I liked this WAY more than I anticipated.

We started watching this on Tuesday. 2 episodes in and loving it. I agree with your points.

It took me a whole episode to realize that Dan Stevens was playing the lead role. Quite a departure from Downton Abbey!

You're in for a treat if you're loving it so far. The developments are anything but predictable the further you go down this rabbit hole. Some great little Easter eggs for X-Men fans too.

Legion, S1 - 9/10

This easily outranks the various Marvel-related series on Netflix. I was very impressed with the story and the offbeat way in which it was told. It's obvious that a lot of planning went into it, and every scene/shot had a purpose. Characters and casting were all great. I also liked the fact that no extensive knowledge of the X-Men is necessary to enjoy the story; however, if you're versed in the classic material, there are some real treats here. I'm ready to watch it again for an even richer experience.

The only downside is that it's almost too much to take in!

I gave it the same rating. Loved it much more than any X-Men movie by Fox.

24 Legacy - 5/10

By the numbers continuation of the now classic series starring Kiefer Sutherland only this time it's minus his key character Jack Bauer. While mildly interesting it brings nothing new to the table and unfortunately lacks the trademark twists and turns that made the original 24 series so great.
