Big s Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Well, it’s about time. I really like this show and I’m curious how that cliffhanger is gonna work out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pengbuzz Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Last I saw of this, a huge chunk of the Moon was hurtling at Earth. Unless they took a really long hiatus, I'm guessing I missed a lot, huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just glad that a good chunk of the shows I like are finally coming back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
technoblue Posted June 27, 2022 Author Share Posted June 27, 2022 The third season starts with more music and dancing, so this show is still in its groove. I’m working my way through the episodes slowly so that I can take more time to enjoy it, but last night I finally finished episode 5. No spoilers, just giving a quick update.

jvmacross Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Netflix keeps flaking out for me....it's the only streaming services that fails from time to time....was only able to make it to episode 3 but liking it so far.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sqidd Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Wife and I marathon'd it yesterday. I rate it with the other season. Entertaining and worth watching but nothing to knock your socks off. Except for the abs on gravity girl....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thom Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Another fun season from the Umbrella Academy. They never fail in the whole 'fun family dysfunction' thing. Overall, it was as good as the previous seasons, though I don't think it was any better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall, it was as good as the previous seasons, though I don't think it was any better. The show has been very consistent out of the gate. From my POV, that’s a good thing, especially since it’s doing its own thing as an adaptation of the Dark Horse graphic novels. Both have their own unique voice. And that ending gave room for another continuation, which I wasn’t expecting. Now I hope they get that 4th season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvmacross Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Finished the 3rd season.....enjoyed it for the most part....for those that have read the comics...is the show caught up with it more or less...or does the comic go beyond the events of S3?

Basically. There are three collected volumes for the comics that are published and one spin-off. They do their own thing but loosely follow the same events as the Netflix series. For instance, the comics give hero nicknames to all the main characters and have villains for them to fight in the main story. Volume 3 of the comic introduced the Sparrows but doesn’t give a deep dive into their background like the series. I’ve read that the plan was to introduce Sparrow Academy in detail with volume 4 of the comics but it isn’t out yet. The new volume was announced a couple years ago (2020).

Mog Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Just finished Season 1 (I know). Dumb question: I wonder if the future before Number Five ditched The Handler (after being moved up to management) would have averted the apocalypse? Everyone has a fairly happy ending. And Vanya still discovers the journal, but there would be (theoretically) no gorilla boy to trap her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the end of season 1, something like that happy timeline is possible… On the other hand, there are so many other variables at play, and we didn’t get to see much of the revised present-day timeline that the Handler intended to use as her main reset. Something else could have come up to cause things to go sideways. I’ll leave it at that to avoid potential season 2 and 3 spoilers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, Netflix changed a lot for the show. I suggest taking a look at the comic, if you’re willing and want a different perspective of the events and characters. As for me, I’ve enjoyed both interpretations. It will be interesting to see where the story goes if we get a season 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mog Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Didn’t realize that Lester Pocket is actually Leoben from BSG. Dude tends to be cast in those slightly creepy roles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
