I sort of want to write something about Brexit, but it'll probably be outdated within the hour, and ancient news by tomorrow.
(Not to mention all the other news from around the world. *hands*)
On the other hand, The Umbrella Academy is a thing that exists in the world, so not everything is bad. I am watching it for the second time, remembering what it's like to fall in love with a show and a [weird and wonderful] world and a whole bunch of characters. And what characters!! I can't even. There are SO MANY, and I love them all. (Even the stupid/annoying ones.) Although Five and Klaus were basically custom-made to hit alllll my buttons. Like ticking off everything on a list of 'Stuff that elisi loves'. That hasn't happened in a long, long time.
There are many excellent shows out there, but there are very, very few that hit me in that way, so this was a most wonderful surprise. ♥
ETA: There will likely be spoilers in the comments...
ETA2: THE MUSIC! I can't believe I forgot to mention the music. The music (and how it's used) is just incredible!

Just popping by to say YES to all your Umbrella Academy thoughts! Klaus and Five are my favourites too! <3 I love the quirkiness and the visual aesthetics, and that there is something fascinating about each and every character on the show.

Hi! *waves back* Welcome.
Just popping by to say YES to all your Umbrella Academy thoughts!
:D

It's rare to get one character who hits me that hard, but TWO? And then all the others are fab too, it's this embarrassment of riches.

Very much so. Plus, the whole verse just hands together beautifully - which probably has something to do with it being a comic book first - but I love the attention to detail.
