I don't see what the whiners are seeing; I thought this was great and especially Jodie Foster was fantastic. Sure, the season is slow, but this isn't an action Jackson show and if you're just looking for your daily adrenaline fix, this show won't please you. The rest of us, though, may find plenty to enjoy here.

@werecatf I didnt understand it either. Sure, the mythical aspect was a bit off for this anthology, but other than that everything was quite in line with earlier seasons. Both in quality and style.
Made the mistake of reading the IMDB comments. Lots of angry guys complaining about the big “Eskimo” cop somehow taking on someone who is twice her size. Obviously, these people don’t know who Kalis Reis is. I’d like to see them try.

@jackdecarlo_ I didnt know her, looked her up while watching, then was surprised she lost the fight vs 3 dudes xD but ig that made more sense for her story at that point :P

VIP4Way better than season 3, and possibly better than season 2 during some moments but the first is absolutely still the peak of this show. I hope they get to wrap things up in season 5 but overall I think this season was solid!

@thetrophymunchers I thought the end of this season (4) was a great place to finalize the story. I thought this would actually be the last season lol.
i'm wondering how many episodes there are in Season 2. is there a definitive resource where i can check?

@ajmal-email-yahoo-co-uk Originally 10, but filming for the last episode was not finished bc of COVID19, so it remains at 9.
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:

@powersheetexcelbi And then Season 3 hits and makes Season 2 look like elementary school xD
