10/10. Funny/scary in equal measures, and grounded enough that you actually care about the people.
Classics. Legion is the best Marvel show ever. When Aubrey Plaza playing a dancing demon psychiatrist isn’t the best thing on the show, attention must be paid.
I finished Widow’s Bay yesterday, great show! Totally agree that it feels grounded enough to care. Story was well written and had some great laughs. Totally recommend!
Just finished ‘Widow’s Bay.’

Black Sails. Pirates. Sex. Violence. Intrigue. Betrayals. Big battles.
You get the picture.

I recently read a discussion about the difference between ‘grounded’ and ‘realistic’ because the two are often used interchangeably.
“Realistic” is true to life. You can’t stop a tank with a pistol. Horses can’t jump across the Grand Canyon.
‘Grounded’ means that the characters and actions are so well presented that they feel honest, even when they are completely fantastic.
