FX’s Legion To End With Its Third Season

All good things must come to an end. Such is the case with all amazing TV shows, and such is the case with FX’s Legion. While many of us grew up in an era where the old network TV formula revolved around Episode 3 of a series feeling like Episode 100 — with character growth and changed being kept at arm’s length, ideally — we currently live in an era of TV where change and growth are celebrated, and oftentimes necessary.

This was the basis of shows like Breaking Bad, which tend to have very specific character and story arcs in mind, and more often than not with big non-network shows, you can expect each season to feel more like an entry in a novel than your average sitcom or 45-minute procedural. Such is also the case for the incredibly unique FX superhero series Legion.

The show has currently finished two seasons, and from the beginning, creator Noah Crawley had envisioned a three-season story for it…but is he sticking to it? Well, according to THR, he is absolutely sticking to his guns here. FX has announced at the TV Critics Association press tour that this next season will be their last.

This is probably for the best on more than one level. Not only is it cool to hear FX is down to keep the creative integrity of the show up, but the reality is that the second season wasn’t exactly a ratings juggernaut, with viewership dropping substantially from the first season. With that in mind, Legion fans can celebrate the fact that Hawley is being given the opportunity to finish the tale he set out to tell.
