Adjusting my glasses to take a peek into the umbrella academy tag like Hmmmm. Maybe I don't want to watch the new season after all.
#im gonna be real I didnt even realize it had come out yet#where was all the marketing?? i saw none of it#Ive complained to friends before that a lot of the umbrella academy feels like hurt no comfort in a bad way#theyre SO good at making interesting compelling conflict on a personal level with the characters#and every time it happens I go “oh man I cant wait for the others to find out about this thing and react to it!”#but then it just. never happens. its forgotten and replaced with more character angst only us the audience seems to truly care about#example comes most to my mind is like almost every single thing that happens to Klaus in s1#my son got the end of the stick over and over and over and it was either always ignored or used as a punchline#and thats only funny the first 3 times#same w Luthor basically almost being sexually assulted by Allison (am I remembering that right? its been a while)#it happens. its bad. the audience goes “oh fuck I cant wait to see the reactions / pay off from other characters ab this”#then it just doesnt! give us that!#it never gives us that pay off!#idk that was always my biggest pet peeve#the umbrella academy#birds rambles
