    Explain to me, in small words, why that show isn’t as widely known/quoted/beloved as ‘Rick and Morty?’

      Probably because Legion is a show that’s harder to get into, and people might not find it as interesting as some other shows. But truly, I don’t really know.

      Edit: Or if you want it in a simple way. Weird show.

        I just found a really obscure show on Paramount. “Lioness” with Zoe Saldana and Nicole Kidman.

        Kidnappings, torture, assassinations combined with family drama and high stakes politics.

        I can see why it’s not popular. Too much violence for a soap opera, and too much soap opera for the violence lovers.

          Sounds like something I’d maybe skip through half the episode, unless the drama part is actually well done.

            Exactly my point. I was just looking for a shoot-'em-up. Found myself caught up in the plot.

            Apparently it is getting another season, so it did find an audience.

            Also, wandering further afield, I’ve noticed that there’s now a genre of action/politics shows. “The Recruit” “The Diplomat” “Madam Secretary” “The Night Agent.”
