WARNING: Do not type Umbrella Academy Season 2 (or otherwise) into google because you will be automatically inundated with spoilers in the entry titles alone.
I finished the series and then was looking for opinions and the like when BLAM. That main topic was the not the first thing I would have wanted to see. Google in this instance does not care about your need for wonder and surprise.

Really enjoying this season too. So many great quotes. A couple I jotted down: Imagine Batman....then aim lower (Five on Diego) So much hostility in such a tiny package (Lila on Five) Wonder if it’s too late to be unadopted (Five)
Also these 'siblings' just love to dance!

Finished it earlier tonight. So much fun to watch. Not much about it inspires a discussion though. Kinda like Doom Patrol.
Speaking of which, the girl with the black hair and many personalities, I keep thinking she's the actress who played the lead in Glee. She's not but I went all of season one trying to figure out where I know her from and only just recently did I figure it out.

Season 2 The Umbrella Academy
Watched three episodes so far. I am enjoying it very much. Just what a gal needs during a pandemic.

Watched the first two episodes... SUPRISE SUPRISE nothing but left-wing propaganda... why does everything have to push some sort of message, I just want to watch a good story.

I had no problem with the left wing propaganda. And why write something if there's not a "message?" Besides it was the 60's. Everything was political.

I think I may just be hitting a point where I have watched too much TV LOL some shows are too predictable for me, takes the fun out of it.

I have rarely experienced a show where there wasn't some predictability. Even ones I like or admire. It's hard to write about something that hasn't been written yet. You don't have to like UA Season 2. I myself couldn't really get into Stranger Things Season 3. There I definitely found a lot of repetition. But other folks loved it. So there you are.

I didn't care about the tone set by the propaganda considering the whole show is about a group of time travelers with super powers. If I can suspend enough disbelief to enjoy that, I can handle a some political bullshit.
I like the new girl, the one who is into Diego. She was in a show called Humans which I adored. Sadly it was canceled. Gladly, she's in this now.

Lila? I can never remember the character name. She's pretty fun.
