Umbrella Academy
This appeared on Netflix today so instead of taking my lumps from Ascension, Stranger Things and Hill House and quitting Netflix entirely, I jumped headfirst into this.
Two episodes in I'm laughing a lot in both a straightforward and "what the fuck" way. I have no idea what the source material for this is but it must be nuts. I know it's a comic but beyond that nothing.
Great cast, solid mystery at the centre and a bounty of WTF laughs. It has a creeping darkness too. Bad things are imminent.
Klaus and Vanya are fantastic, I think Number 5 is class though.
Two episodes in and it's a treat so far.
