Thanks for the EW article. Looks they'll be back in production by August so hopefully we'll get some BTS then.

Noah Hawley also stated that the most he can see for this show is 3 seasons but of course that all depends on how successful the show will be.

Quote:

And as for Hawley's upcoming comic book adaptation Legion on FX, he isn't looking at the structure too differently from Fargo — even though it's not an anthology series. "Legion is not designed to be a case-of-the-week show — it's a serialized story," he said. "Even though you may come back next year and do chapter two, you're still pretty much going about it the same way, which is, 'Where are we going with this? And what's the best way to get there?'" He went on to add that it's helpful that now the length of the story is oftentimes the length of the show, a luxury for creators that Landgraf ardently supports.

As he did with Fargo, Landgraf plans to let Legion stay on the air for as many seasons as the story needs (he made the same decision recently when he renewed the network's critical darling The Americans for a final two seasons per showrunners Joe Weisberg and Joel Fields' request). "We don't know going in how many seasons that may last. Even in success, Legion might end after three seasons because that might be all the story there is to tell," he said. "The bottom line is we're going to make the series as long as he wants to tell the story and believes it's the best version."

Some bits from Noah's Reddit Q&A last week: https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/commen...wrunner_of_fxs

Sadly, this was the only Legion question he answered as most of the questions is (understandably) from his other TV show, Fargo.

Quote:

I can't wait for Legion. Was it a story that got onto your hands or did you personally choose it? Can you tell us a little bit about it?

Noah: I chose the character to focus on. I wanted to create a subjective world based around a character who has a hard time knowing what's real. In this way the structure of the story could reflect the content. I also wanted to take a swing at an epic love story. So there's that.

Exactly

Wednesday after Arrow would be perfect for me - or anytime on Friday cause got nothing ... or even after LoT on Thursday but that's only cause I have nothing - not sure how tough Thursdays are though
