The Umbrella Academy

I finished watching the show last night and I am blown away. I was a huge fan of the comic series when it came out and I had no idea how to feel about the fact that they were doing a television series, other than cautiously optimistic. The show delivered in a big way for me. It was everything i was hoping for and then some. It's definitely not for everybody and if you've not read the comics, it can be a little difficult to get into. If you're watching now and feeling that way, that's okay, though I'd urge you to get past episode five. That's when things really get good.

If you want to come yell at me about the show in the comments, please do! Spoiler warning for the comment section, just in case.

I dealt with some of my feelings for the show by creating a bunch of Pinterest boards, like I do for a lot of the shows/media I love. [eyyyy come follow me on Pinterest if that's the sort of thing you're in to.]





Also, I just saw that they released the score for the show. I've been listening to that and it's so good. (Link to Spotify) The music in this show is amazing, but score and soundtrack. It doesn't look like they've released an actual soundtrack, at least not more than the few covers Gerard Way has put out. But I've noticed a few people have put together playlists of what they could find. I really need that cover of "Angel of the Night" that Vanya plays in the first episode though. It's amazing.
