In a way we are all a little like Klaus.
Sometimes I think i don’t do enough drugs for my inner Klaus to be fulfilled.
Great show. I should rewatch it. (Umbrella Academy)
What’s this ?
Umbrella academy, banger of a show
Did it end well? I watched an liked it but i heard it went off the rails.
I was enjoying it, but stopped and didn’t watch the season 2 finale
Tap for spoiler
At that point, it felt like the story was becoming convoluted and there were a fair few plot holes (most with something to do with time travel). I also heard in reviews season 3/4 really started getting stale
Minor spoiler but there’s no foreshadowing for it so idk if it counts:
So iirc one of the actors came out as trans during the filming of the later seasons, and rather than force him to keep playing a woman they worked it into the show. I was personally a little startled cuz it happened with no foreshadowing and wasn’t strictly necessary for any of the plots, so at first I thought it was one of those rainbow capitalism token LGBTQ+ characters by writers that don’t know or care to find out what the character’s demographic is really like or goes thru. Felt a little bit patronizing and gross at first, so I can see why people might have been miffed.
Knowing the context with the actor tho, the fact that the trans plot line is a little rushed and sloppy is very forgivable imo, and I think they did the right thing even if the show’s perceived quality might have suffered a little for it.
I haven’t really read a lot of reviews of it to know for sure if that’s the part people complained about, but if it is then imo you shouldn’t let the complaints scare you off the show.
Elliot Page transitioned between seasons so if you didnt catch that news I can totally see why it’d be jarring.
I never follow celebrities and only recognized one person on the entire cast, so yeah I went into that very blind lol
That’s the best part lol
Ron?
