When he wasn’t leading the X-Men, Dr. Charles Xavier conceived a mentally gifted son, David Haller. Unfortunately, Haller was diagnosed with schizophrenia at a young age and spends his life in and out of psychiatric hospitals. His group of friends and fellow mutants are more than happy to help him dig up his inner demons though, while also staving off a threat everyone thought was long dead.

Developed and written by Noah Hawley of Fargo fame, Legion like Logan before it offers up another angle to the whole “real-life superheroes” concept. If you’ve missed out on the series, now’s your chance to get into it. The upcoming season will also serve as its last, wrapping up the David Haller epic in a neat little bow. 

Here’s everything you need to know to watch Legion online for free.

FXX is available on many of the major live TV streaming services. When deciding which one is best for you, you’ll want to weigh the cost, the other channels you’ll receive, and the compatible devices for streaming. Thankfully, no matter which service you decide to try, you’ll be able to start with a one-week trial, so you can watch Legion online for free.

For a more à la carte service, look to Sling TV. It offers two cable packages, Sling Orange and Sling Blue, both of which cost $30 per month. Only Sling Blue carries FX, which allows you to watch Legion, and offers more bang for your buck anyway with over 40 channels, including sports necessities like FS1, NBCSN, and NFL Network. You’ll also gain access to the usual cable mainstays like Food Network, Discovery, Cartoon Network, SYFY, and FXX. But if you grab them both (Sling Orange + Blue) you can save $10 per month. Here’s the complete guide to Sling TV channels.
