Meet David Haller
Dan Stevens portrays David Haller in Legion. FX introduces David as someone whose understanding of his own experiences changes after meeting Syd. Begin with that uncertainty: the series presents his perspective before asking the viewer to decide how its extraordinary events fit together.
Official source · FX ↗Keep the experience separate from the explanation
Notice what David sees, what he remembers and what another person tells him happened. Holding those viewpoints apart gives the series room to reveal its mystery without a character biography settling it in advance.

Where to start
Begin with Legion season one, episode one, then follow seasons two and three in order. The series develops its own mystery through the episodes; use its title guide for context rather than jumping into a later season for an individual character.
