Some clarification on some longstanding mysteries this episode, and some seemingly deliberate obfuscation too. Also beauty, horror, love, deceit, tenderness, antagonism, loving support, and callously frivolous murder, and possibly the first meeting between David and the "real" Amahl Farouk. Exciting!

Psychic robotic androgynous triplets, one-legged hallucinatory (?) minotaurs, and choreographed astral dance-offs can only mean one thing, Legion is back and more beautifully bizarre than ever!

Jason and A.Ron wrap up a satisfying first season of FX’s Legion with a full accounting of the finale episode, “Chapter 8”. Bad guys are humanized, suave swingers hit the road, and David seems to find peace of mind and a bit of happiness… but… well, this is Legion and there is that post-credits sequence. All this plus feedback and emerging news on season two! Thanks for listening, we’ll see you next year! Support Bald Move: Club Bald Move Support Jason's podcasting: Jason's Patreon | |||

We're glad to see the return of Jemaine Clement and Jean Smart to the series, and who better to quickly bring up Syd from infancy to repair the damage done by David and instill her with the healthy rearing she'll probably need to come out okay on the other end of Legion in two short weeks!

FX’s Legion delivers a fantastic penultimate episode with “Chapter 7”. Humor, action, character development, jaw dropping visuals, Legion managed to deliver the goods while building suspense as we head into the final episode of the first season. Plus, we got a ton more information about the identity of David’s parasite, David’s father, and Melanie’s husband Oliver. More Jemaine Clement is never a bad thing!

Jim, A.Ron and Jason join in the demented group therapy happening on this week’s episode of FX’s Legion. Lenny does some James Bond vamping, David is loving his new found stability, and Syd thinks that things just aren’t… right. On this show, they never are. Also, listener feedback, and Jason treats us to another news/spoiler section at the tail end of the episode. Support Bald Move: Club Bald Move Support Jason's podcasting: Jason's Patreon | |||

The guys tuck into another episode of FX’s Legion, “Chapter Five”. David finds his happy place before going on a certified psychokinetic rampage, Cary reunites with his sister, Syd confesses to a very unconventional tryst, and the whole gang gets their minds’ swiped into a demented therapy session by the demon with yellow eyes. Lots to discuss! Plus feedback! And then; spoilers! Support Bald Move: Club Bald Move Support Jason's podcasting: Jason's Patreon | |||
| 4: "Chapter 4" (S1E4) | 02 Mar 2017 | 01:15:28 | |
Jason is still a true believer, but A.Ron and Jim are a bit wary, and weary of the “is it real or is it all in their minds??” questions that threaten to derail an otherwise engaging season of FX’s Legion. Even still, we really dug the groovy guest spot with Jemaine Clement, and are very impressed with Aubrey Plaza’s suddenly fearsome Lenny, and are intrigued with the revelations around David’s imaginary (?) pooch King.

Jim, Jason and A.Ron break down another mind altering episode of FX’s Legion. In “Chapter 3”, we delve more into David’s past and childhood, explore the astral plane to check in on his sister, and get more hints and clues as to the nature and powers of the yellow-eyed demon that haunts David’s dreams.

Jason, A.Ron and Jim get a bit of an Empire Strikes Back vibe from the second episode of FX’s Legion, which tones down a bit of the psychedelic trippiness in favor of world and character building. Join us for a stroll through David’s museum of memories as we talk about the highlights and further mysteries of shadowy government agencies and the mutants who rebel against them.

Jason from Podcastica and Jim and A.Ron from Bald Move merge our psyches together to form one semi-coherent podcast on FX’s new schizophrenic superhero, Legion. Headed up by Fargo master Noah Hawley, and starring Dan Stevens (Downton Abbey), Rachel Keller (Fargo), and Aubrey Plaza (Parks and Rec), the show certainly has a fine pedigree. We found it visually striking, with excellent and appealing actors, and admired the way the show throws us head first into an electrified pool of reality-bending mystery and intrigue. We discuss the many strengths and few potential weaknesses of the show, before considering fellow fan feedback and have a brief spoilery look into the future of the show.

David's gone full-on bad guy in this one, casually shattering, disintegrating, and mind-wiping his enemies left and right. But it'll be fine, he's going to fix everything.

Dark, blurred-out, glowy-eyed, long-nosed, periphery-dwelling, time-eating, toothy, grinning demons infiltrate Legion this week for possibly the creepiest and most horrific episode yet.

Legion gave us something completely new this week (just like I was hoping it would), with the introduction of the long awaited Professor X and his backstory. It was new and different but also reflective of the series' past, with some chilling moments, sweetness, romance, and terror. It filled in some blanks, and raised a few questions. Join A.Ron, Rima, and Jason as we explore the implications!

Excited to welcome A.Ron Hubbard of Bald Move back into the fold this week, officially making this a joint Bald Move / Podcastica production. Grab your ceramic cartoon character vaporizer and let's celebrate! P.S. This episode has us examining the nature of healthy and unhealthy relationships in a way that made me (Jason) feel like I'm being tricked into therapy. Slightly uncomfortable, yet cathartic.

Whew, rough season finale if you're rooting for David to be the hero. This episode had us spinning with possibilities, wondering whether we've been misreading reality from the start. Basically, Noah Hawley is the Shadow King and he's messing with our minds!!! Note: Jason's audio is crappy sounding for the first 6 minutes or so because of a technical flub, but then it sounds clear after that. Thanks to all you good people (who deserve to be loved) for coming along with us this season - as you can tell, we really dig this show, and it's so fun and rewarding to dive into and talk about in-depth. So, we'll be back next season! And who knows, maybe we'll come back with a bonus episode sometime in between.

| BONUS: Introducing Wax Episodic — Alien: Earth S1E1&2 | 16 Aug 2025 | 02:20:21 | |
Bonus Episode: Introducing Wax Episodic Hi, Jason here. This is a special bonus episode reposted from my new podcast, Wax Episodic, where I cover top-tier, story-rich TV shows one season at a time with different co-hosts. We’re kicking things off with Alien: Earth, and I wanted to share the first episode here so you can check it out. If you like it, please consider subscribing to Wax Episodic — it’s my new podcast home, and you can find it at waxepisodic.com.
PS I know you guys are into 80s nostalgia like us, and so Alien: Earth might be right up your alley — it taps into that gritty, suspenseful sci-fi vibe of classics like Aliens and The Thing, but with a fresh, modern edge. PS Since most of you loved Legion, I think you’ll be really interested in Alien: Earth — another brilliant, wild ride from Noah Hawley. Alien: Earth S1E1&2: “Neverland” & “Mr. October” The wait is over — Alien: Earth has landed, and Noah Hawley’s first two episodes deliver everything we hoped for: suspense, grotesque alien terrors, strange new lifeforms, and a sharp look at how unchecked corporate ambition could shape our future — in a series that (at least so far) feels both classic and brand new. Join Jason, Randy, and Kara as we dig into “Neverland” and “Mr. October.” Links from the episode:
