Considering the show is often referencing Pink Floyd and in particular the original lead singer Syd Barrett, who went insane after taking too much LSD, I wouldn't yet throw your theory in the bin Very Happy

Anyway, watched this episode and it was brilliant. Even if it might not deliver in the end, it's art direction is great and the silent movie part was genius.

Hopefully shadow king will be out looking for Charles.
They shouldn't go for spectacle when they can't afford it.
They could've done the some things differently.
But solid season ender.

Awesome show. D3 parts felt really goofy, cheap and amateurish though.

Not sure how S2 will deliver on what made this season great.

This show has blown my mind away, I hope season 2 will be equally good if not better.

Season 2 seems to be on the nose right away.
Visually still purty. But it doesn't have the mind fuckery as before.
I'm guessing the general audience found it hard to folllow.

I bet they have the same budget but for more episode to divide between. So far music is shit compared to first season Sad and I blame licensing costs.

Is the show worth a watch? I tried Daredevil and Punisher but both were disappointing. Legion better than those or just more of the same?

Very different, you can't even compare them, Legion is miles better though and i liked Punisher quite a bit as well. This isn't really a normal Superhero show so i wouldn't go in there expecting that the whole first season is one big mindfuck and so far it looks like season 2 continues that although a bit different.

Season 2 is more mind fingering rather than a mind fuck.

Hard to say.
If the first two episodes didn't draw you in, there's no point to continue watching for the pay off later in the season. Cause it's a slow burn, it takes a while to get the ball rolling.

Season 2 remedied these mistakes by making the season simple and still weird.
The vall drops and keep rolling in each episode. But you have to struggle through artsy shit.

And the bolded part is why it's worth giving it more than two episodes to really get into the story, wrap your head around the style etc.
