For real though.

And I must admit, going in I suspected there would not be connections to the film series, and it would be standalone. It really upset and disappointed me. But as I kept watching it, I began to really enjoy it even as its own thing. And then the unthinkable....references to Professor X, and then last week when they confirmed him and the shot of his wheelchair.....holy crap....just made the show that much better. Noah Fawley did everything he said he would. He proved that the show could stand on its own two feet without any connections, and then connected it once that was proved. Amazing. Although it was nerve wracking, it proved to be the better path to take than unloading and relying on the connections in the first episode.

(and for fun, I paused on the wheelchair and googled Professor X's wheelchair from the films, and it is the exact same chair.)

The show is just masterful. I am so excited for the future and more connections.
