_Finally_, a Marvel show about the **X-Men universe!** This is already better than the best seasons of the best ever Marvel shows (S02+ of Agents of SHIELD and Daredevil)... and certainly much better than the Iron Fist or The Defenders!

**SEASON 1:**

Be warned, the show is __extremely confusing - being from the perspective of a mental patient - and has a bit of a slow start__, though it picks up significantly in E03, at which point it upgrades to merely "very confusing" until the penultimate episode. Sadly, this resulted in my wife loosing interest before getting to that point, so be sure to stick with it.

I love the chilling glimpses - and brilliant soundtrack accompaniment - of the antagonist: the "monster." They are by far the best representation of this creature/character, ever!

Also, there are subtle hints as to how this show, and its protagonist, tie in to the story of the better-known X-Men.
This takes place in the past, similar to X-Men: Days of Future Past and X-Men: First Class, so it shows some interesting prototypes of well-known technology and even appliances (Espresso, anyone? ;).

I am sad to see there are only 8 episodes, with it ending just as soon as things start to come together and make sense.

When Season 1 ended after finally explaining (a few) things, I thought Season 2 would finally be less confusing...
WRONG!


**SEASON 2:**

S02 jumps forward an unknown amount of time, we have to peice together what happened in between.
Not only am I not sure what is reality, at times, but even if I'm watching a TV show anymore.

At times it turns into an International Indie Film (complete with Chapter titles, and Interludes), a Nature Channel animal documentary, and even a Hip-Hop Ballet (though a good one!).
Wow!


**SEASON 1 RECAP (for SEASON 2):**

Here is a recap of the ending of Season 1 to help get you started, to make things (slightly) less confusing:
