Don't know if this is a direct reference or just a coincidence, but for those who don't know, Lenny was never intended to be played by a woman. The character was originally going to be more in line with what little we get to see of Benny, i.e. an older man who could serve as an almost paternal figure for David. However, when Aubrey Plaza met with showrunner Noah Hawley, he straight up offered her the part, which I think we can all agree was a great decision.
Godd shes such a good villain. One of Marvels best for sure! I love how this scene just shows the Shadow King stomping all over Davids memories, like he owns them. I cannot wait until Xavier shows up!
Xavier is never gonna be in this show because this show takes place in a different universe not connected to the x-men movies the show is trying to be on its own with no x-men
Shinigami919 is shadow kings demon form just a grotesque version of David and let's be honest this whole scene is how u feel when that tree day weekend comes after a shitty week at work
Freddy Toloni killgrave was kinda weak imo he wasn't as smart as lenny/farouk and wasn't as strong. farouk has been planning for over 20 years while dead and in another dimension
This is actually such a clever scene. I love when this show just completely goes off the trail and turns into a genre-meshing trip. Same as when they go silent film for that 'fight' scene in episode 7. It comes out of nowhere but suits the scene so well and makes the show better. There's nothing the writers won't do with this show, they have full creative control. More shows need to follow suit
Would it be Best Actress or Best Supporting? I can't tell for sure, but she is entitled to at least a nomination this year for this. The Range is amazing that she kind of has to at least get that.
Aubrey: "So, what do you want me to do for this scene?" Director: "I dunno. Could you dance around and intermittently dry hump things?" Aubrey: "Sure." Director: "Oh, I wasn't being seri- I mean.. Okay, lets get started!"
i wasn't a huge fan of hers prior but man she flat out killed her role in legion which was a hard role to play and she really showed her acting chops. much respect for that
Honestly, she's the scariest, most intense villain Marvel has going for it, small screen or big screen. I'd rather go up against Thanos or the Kingpin before choosing to go up against the Shadow King.
I'm glad that someone else shows appreciation of how good a villain Adrian Chase is. He's pretty much the only reason I've gotten through the last couple of Arrow episodes
As someone who used to collect comic books, I can't decide which is more bizarre: the fact that someone managed to make a really good live action version of Legion without screwing up the "unreliable narrator" part, or the fact that mainstream audiences actually "get" it. If you suggested this to me 10-15 years ago, I would have told you that Legion is just to "comic book-y" to be appealing to mainstream audiences *or* decent filmmakers.
This series has really given her the stage to prove that she's the best actress of this era. I just can't get enough Aubrey. This single character has drawn on a wealth of emotions and physical contortions and she's delivered at every turn.
KoalaBear 974 Haha I just started this show and came to this scene.. I immediately went to CZcams to rewatch a couple of times. For scientific purposes, of course. *drooling*
It's really difficult for me to enjoy this scene knowing that the one who is dancing is a freaking FAT DEMON WITH YELLOW EYES!!! (Edit : Damn. Thanks for the likes.)
in fact the fat demon with yellow eyes is not the true form neither, it's just a mental projection. I guess this form is caused by a mental fusion with an morbide fat woman who was a psychic mutant too
Such a ridiculously good show. I feel like it's kind of falling under the radar too despite it actually being a Marvel show because this one is the best Marvel show on TV right now nothing against Daredevil or their other shows but this one is just on another level.
Aubrey Plaza Would Crushed It as Selina Kyle/ Catwoman In The Batfleck Universe With Ben Affleck as Batman/ Bruce Wayne and Theo James As Dick Grayson, Matthew Daddario as Jason Todd, Lesile Grace as Barbara Gordon, and David Mazouz as Damian Wayne, Thanks To Her Incredible Dance Moves To This Dance Scene
Aubrey plaza is amazing in this show she just plays the part so good I never really paid much attention to her and her other roles but after seeing her at this I'd like to see what she does afterwards
I just searched Aubrey Plaza once on google a week ago... Never searched on yt any video of her or about legion (that I'm actually watchin it but on tv) and suddenly i get this on the home page... Wow, sometimes google algorithms scare me lol!
Fucking Amazing!!! I wasn't feeling the idea of a whole episode in a made up reality at first, but this scene right here! WoW!! Now I can't wait to explore the Shadow King's world for an episode! 😆😆
This scene is a literal representation of living in someone's mind rent free.
Exactly what I thought when I first saw it. Also shes been doing exactly that in my mind since I started watching this show.
💀⚰️
yess!!
Mr Ditkovich: rent?
@@druunderwood5602 *Running Away*
This is how I picture Aubrey Plaza spending a day when everyone else in the show has gone home but her.
Aubrey Plaza doesn't audition for parts. Casting directors meet her and make a part for her.
Aubrey Plaza doesn't get wet when it rains. The rain gets Aubrey.
Don't know if this is a direct reference or just a coincidence, but for those who don't know, Lenny was never intended to be played by a woman.

MartialBob she's JUST kooky/adorably weird enough for this to TOTALLY be true.
Chris Avery Right??
"I'm you, I'm me, I'm everything you wanna be"
"...and now, you're me. I own you, your memories, your life. Your body..." (I imagine that's what (s)he is thinking here.)
Horrifyingly Hillarious fight club flashback
kimmyfreak200 Yep, I was thinking the same thing. She's the daughter of Tyler Durden and Marla Singer...
My cat when I leave the house.
So true it hurts😂
Good one.
So say we all.
😂😂😂
Aubrey said she always wanted to play catwoman.
I have never been more attracted to a parasite in my entire life ._.
Until it turns into its fat form
sorry to ruin your fantasy (:
I've never been so attracted to a slow moving speechless humanoid blob with yellow eyes in my life.
well... no ones perfect :)
Let's not forget about migi
Well, I wouldn't go so far as to say Migi is atractive... but he is cool, lack-of feelings and all xP
Best scene of "I don't give a fuck" I ever seen. Aubrey Plaza is my dream girl!
I like your profile pic of the Devil with the Yellow Eyes
Edit: Comment no longer funny because Op changed profile Pic :(
1LIFEtoWIN lmaooooo
mmm... so many 'best' scenes in L e g i o n ... love it
back away this is my dragon
hahaha hahaha
Godd shes such a good villain. One of Marvels best for sure! I love how this scene just shows the Shadow King stomping all over Davids memories, like he owns them. I cannot wait until Xavier shows up!
She was literally "fucking" with his memories.
When in her Yellow Eyed Demon form she was almost grinding on David, I was kinda like throwing up in my mouth.
Xavier is never gonna be in this show because this show takes place in a different universe not connected to the x-men movies the show is trying to be on its own with no x-men
I would love to see Xavier battling the Shadow king like in comics but its best to stay away from x-men
Shinigami919 is shadow kings demon form just a grotesque version of David and let's be honest this whole scene is how u feel when that tree day weekend comes after a shitty week at work
Aubrey Plaza is killing this role. I love how she makes being wicked and nefarious so cool
Lenny is the best marvel villain to date. Aubrey plaza is killing it!
Olivia Petersen whoa I wouldn't say she's the best. I'd reserve that for kilgrave
Freddy Toloni killgrave was kinda weak imo he wasn't as smart as lenny/farouk and wasn't as strong. farouk has been planning for over 20 years while dead and in another dimension
mastrj Still isn't better than kilgrave.
Uhh Loki? Kilgrave? I'd say most would agree that she's close but not the best.
Wouldn't go that far. You still have WIlson Fisk and Killgrave in the mix.
This scene was so funny. I just love how she was visiting all the memories she's changed and celebrating.
I honestly think Legion is the best TV show right now based on a comic.
Oh My God I Found a Penny best TV show based on comic ever.
Oh My God I Found a Penny This show is not only the best show based on comics, it's the best tv show right now!
Oh My God I Found a Penny yup,this show worthy to watch
yeah by far
Oh My God I Found a Penny haaaaa hhhaaaa it is plagerism... jil ..
This is actually such a clever scene. I love when this show just completely goes off the trail and turns into a genre-meshing trip. Same as when they go silent film for that 'fight' scene in episode 7. It comes out of nowhere but suits the scene so well and makes the show better. There's nothing the writers won't do with this show, they have full creative control. More shows need to follow suit
There'll never be another show like Legion. A psychedelic mind-trip of a show. Only Mr. Robot comes close.
The amount of times i've watched this is unhealthy.
Me. Me me me me me
Same 🤘
33
damn this looks like an old-school james bond opening sequence or smth. i love it god
Paweł Sobolewski Pretty sure they were going for that
Oh shit sorry for stealing your joke fam.
aubrey plaza deserves an emmy for this role, if she doesnt win best actress Ill be sick.
Would it be Best Actress or Best Supporting? I can't tell for sure, but she is entitled to at least a nomination this year for this. The Range is amazing that she kind of has to at least get that.
It's comic book related, they will probably snob it
fucking robbed of even a nomination.
Jo bat hai
It's a crime she didn't get an Emmy for this.
This season was practically a Joker performance, just without any publicity.
Aubrey: "So, what do you want me to do for this scene?"
Director: "I dunno. Could you dance around and intermittently dry hump things?"
Aubrey: "Sure."
Director: "Oh, I wasn't being seri- I mean.. Okay, lets get started!"
This is series is so good, not even by comic book standards, but by any TV show standard
the OG Agatha all along
ofc
But good lol
This is literally the only scene of this show I've seen and y'know I think I'm sold.
So, have you watchted it now?
she can infect my brain any time she wants
Your telling me bro
Hmmmm......FUCK IT
Callum Mcnicholas damn it you just killed my fantasy !
Chris L my thoughts exactly if it was just her and her alone and not some obese man pretending to be her.
so...Rica!
Man, she's so reserved or terse or mean in so many of her other roles. It's awesome to get to see her play someone so bombastic
i wasn't a huge fan of hers prior but man she flat out killed her role in legion which was a hard role to play and she really showed her acting chops. much respect for that
And this wasn't choreographed apparently. Oh Aubrey
Don't really have to with this much cutting and editing.
think about how much footage there now is of aubrey Plaza acting crazy. its beautiful
Let the girl have her fun lol
the bolero scene wasnt
Source?
Shit, I just noticed that what she's swinging on in the bedroom is his extension cord noose. Awesome.
What?
Sr. Yamuska In that memory she was dancing in David tried hanging himself with a cord. She swung from it onto the bed.
oh, thanks
FairsleyDifference that's not a she....
1000000000 views Television isn’t real. So yes, it is a she swinging on the noose. Her name is Aubrey.
Shes dancing on the grave of his memories
oop literally
Anyone else agree this is one of her most attractive characters? Mostly love that hair on her ❤
Fun as wandavision's "Agatha all Along" is, I still think this one's got more visual panache going on
Honestly, she's the scariest, most intense villain Marvel has going for it, small screen or big screen. I'd rather go up against Thanos or the Kingpin before choosing to go up against the Shadow King.
Me too. Maybe not Thanos.
Just maybe.
Love her, she steals the show!
Agree.
I never expected to become an Aubrey Plaza fan in my life. Full of surprises, this world is.
This is such a cold scene, Aubrey making pure evil look so good.
This will never get old
This dance sequence is life!
this show terrifies me, but I'm gay for Lenny tbh.
She could turn a gay man straight.
Bubba Riots Lenny is also Benny, so you’ve got options.
YOU'RE DOING AMAZING SWEETIE
Who are you, her grandma? lol
Leslie Knope.
Come down later for moose soup!
James Moriarty, Lenny Busker, Adrian Chase......3 of my favorite villains of all time now
I'm glad that someone else shows appreciation of how good a villain Adrian Chase is. He's pretty much the only reason I've gotten through the last couple of Arrow episodes
When people say that Wandavision is confusing.
Someone give Aubrey Plaza an Emmy for this series
This dance scene, truly Iconic
Nina Simone - Feeling Good (Bassnectar Remix)
You're welcome.
You are the best
Thanks!
Greg Mee you're a saint, don't ever change
thanks a lot
Thank you.
I haven’t started the show yet and I’m already in love with Aubrey Plaza’s character
This show was so so good.
This scene was...........
MARVELous.
The doors that way 👉🏿
Man im so jealous you thought of that before i could :( and years before😭
😄 Seriously though... take my like and go. 😐👉🏿🚪
Loved this scene. It is The perfect demonstration of how this character was in total control
Aubrey Plaza did such an amazing performance in this series
I prefer this version of the Shadow King
I'm scaroused
Futurama lmao
Shadow King may be evil but damn does he got style.
As someone who used to collect comic books, I can't decide which is more bizarre: the fact that someone managed to make a really good live action version of Legion without screwing up the "unreliable narrator" part, or the fact that mainstream audiences actually "get" it.
If you suggested this to me 10-15 years ago, I would have told you that Legion is just to "comic book-y" to be appealing to mainstream audiences *or* decent filmmakers.
What a nice serie ! season 1 rock so much !
This was not scripted. The camera crew were just following Aubrey around.
Aubrey is that type of villain that you just hate so much yet impossible to hate forever once she/he dances
this actress is killing it. love her
i love this actress, she rly fits this role so well too.
I hate and love this character so much
This series has really given her the stage to prove that she's the best actress of this era. I just can't get enough Aubrey. This single character has drawn on a wealth of emotions and physical contortions and she's delivered at every turn.
Admit it you searched for this, more than once.
I was crushing on Aubrey before this scene... now she's a full blown "step on me" fantasy. Damn girl!! 😩🙌🏿
Aubrey, gets really great and amazing roles. I'd love to see her get the box office roll she deserves.
This scene is so fuckin great! Aubrey Plaza slays it!!
Such an underrated performance, I keep on waiting for the awards to come in on that one
Legion - a superhero series or a collection of incredible psychedelic music videos? I'll keep rewatching it every year either way
i think youtube suggested this to me because it knows i'm a lesbian. bless you youtube
Ahah actually Google knows us better than ourselves.
KoalaBear 974 Haha I just started this show and came to this scene.. I immediately went to CZcams to rewatch a couple of times. For scientific purposes, of course. *drooling*
It's really difficult for me to enjoy this scene knowing that the one who is dancing is a freaking FAT DEMON WITH YELLOW EYES!!!
(Edit : Damn. Thanks for the likes.)
Don't care still fuck
Ahmad Khairaldo That's actually an actress named Aubrey Plaza.
kneitel023 lol
in fact the fat demon with yellow eyes is not the true form neither, it's just a mental projection. I guess this form is caused by a mental fusion with an morbide fat woman who was a psychic mutant too
Ahmad Khairaldo lmao
I love how loudly "Legion" proclaims it's "Twin Peaks" inspirations.
Complete Emmy snub. She at least deserved a nod with a nomination. She stole the show.
Dear god, Aubrey Plaza has so much power.
One of the best scenes in #Legion
Such a ridiculously good show. I feel like it's kind of falling under the radar too despite it actually being a Marvel show because this one is the best Marvel show on TV right now nothing against Daredevil or their other shows but this one is just on another level.
Aubrey + Nectar. It's a dream come true.
With this scene itself, Aubrey Plaza just saved an Emmy nomination for her. What a killer performance.
love that you kept her blowing the kiss at the end :D
She's like Fairuza Balk from the Craft dialed up to 11.
Zedfinite damn ur right the both of them make crazy bitch hot as hell
lol damn you dug in the 90's crates for that reference but you're right!
One of the best scenes ever on television.
Today was my last day at my work and I played this song while I was turning the lights down and closing the store
Have anyone noticed she looks like Tim Curry in Rocky's Horror Picture Show?
this looks just like a roger moore or sean connery james bond opening credit scene
you know how I feel.
They captured Shadow King's character so perfectly in this series. I didn't think I'd love him so much on screen!
This. Is. Gold.
One person cannot appreciate art.
who else wants to see more music numbers in the future?
I freaking love Audrey Plaza
This scene is really weird if you picture Lenny in her real form lol
Shut up just enjoy it
Stephen C A fat demon humping a chair... I didn't need that image in my head today but thank you xD
Aubrey Plaza Would Crushed It as Selina Kyle/ Catwoman In The Batfleck Universe With Ben Affleck as Batman/ Bruce Wayne and Theo James As Dick Grayson, Matthew Daddario as Jason Todd, Lesile Grace as Barbara Gordon, and David Mazouz as Damian Wayne, Thanks To Her Incredible Dance Moves To This Dance Scene
Aubrey plaza is amazing in this show she just plays the part so good I never really paid much attention to her and her other roles but after seeing her at this I'd like to see what she does afterwards
Few know this but this is the best Marvel show
Awesome! Yay, Aubrey. Rocking it.
Masterpiece ❤️
Me when my parents go out.
Yeah boy!
What great dramatic affect. No one does it like Aubrey
Damnit I didn't need another reason to be in love with Aubrey Plaza but here we are...
Who else pictures her as a potential live action Disney Villainess after this scene?
She can hide in my brain any ol time.
orangelion03 you want a fat demon to hide in you're brain?
So glad that there's a 360p version of this :)
I just searched Aubrey Plaza once on google a week ago... Never searched on yt any video of her or about legion (that I'm actually watchin it but on tv) and suddenly i get this on the home page... Wow, sometimes google algorithms scare me lol!
Fucking Amazing!!! I wasn't feeling the idea of a whole episode in a made up reality at first, but this scene right here! WoW!! Now I can't wait to explore the Shadow King's world for an episode! 😆😆
THIS SCENE İS SO FUCKING MINDFUCK MAN
This whole show is one long mindfuck
I absolutely fell in love with Aubrey Plaza after this!!!!
she is honestly perfect for this role
