The Umbrella Academy

[Tripper11]

What a fantastic show! So much fun. Lots of twists and turns.
We managed to plow through it in a week.
Sure hope there is a second season, because they left us hanging pretty good!

We are currently watching the Twilight Zone.

9. I would have no problem with my 13 yo watching it

But, I am also pretty permissive in my parenting style. I could see some families thinking it had too many adult situations.

5. Nearly done w/Ep. 1 but am sleepy so finishing tmw. Love it thus far.

The BEST!!! was the violin at the beginning playing music from Phantom!

6. Great show, great cast, great acting

I have to admit that 99% of my TV watching (other than rachel) lands on Netflix, Prime, Tubi and BBC America. There are so many shows that are worth watching on those platforms that the standard tv efforts leave me indifferent.
Kudos to the Umbrella Academy team. Keep it going!

7. I'm in through E4 and like it. I kinda feel like it's a lot of string along

So far at least. I need to complete the season prior to having more to say.

8. It's a very different beastie from the comics in many ways

But imo, the better for it. We binged it in a day, loved it.

10. I like it a lot

I'm on episode 9. To me, it kind of has a Royal Tenenbaums meets X-men mashup vibe.

11. Seems like Watchmen lite.

Of course, only through episode 4.

12. I binge watched this show

I started to watch the show because it had Tom Hopper in it. Hopper played Luther Hargreaves in Umbrella. I got to know his work in Black Sails, a prequel to Treasure Island, where he played Billy Bones.

Looking forward to season 2.
