Oh how I miss the original script 😔

Could’ve had so many amazing moments

I saw that this was part of the pilot script and I was called by God himself to doodle it.

I was rewatching The Umbrella Academy today and was reminded of how much I despise season 4. Specifically Five and Lila.

Five's whole thing is saving his family and doing anything and everything for them. On multiple occasions he could have ignored his family and lived happily but every time he returns to save them. One example is in Season 2 when he kills the entire board to get the briefcase. He has a briefcase, a way home, and when his family doesn't all show up, he gives up his chance to go home to stay with them because they are his home. He quit The Commission with only a year left to go home and save their lives. He tortured and killed others to keep his family safe. So why would he fuck his brother's wife? Even after 7 years? They were still searching, he knew about Diego and the kids. So why? Season 1-3 Five wouldn't.

Lila's characterization is less shitty, but still horrible. She had so much character development in the past 2 seasons, but all of it went down the drain when she had sex with her brother-in-law (who she knew when he was in a 13 year old body, but that's a different conversation). She was also super in love with Diego and obviously those 7 years changed that a bit, but she still HAD loved him, so she wouldn't cheat on him.

So the funniest thing my transgender ass has ever seen on television was the episode of The Umbrella Academy when Elliot Page’s character comes out as trans.

Because, you see, Elliot Page is a rich person with resources. He got top surgery and started testosterone very quickly after he came out. In the gap between making seasons 2 and 3 of Umbrella Academy, Mr. Page got himself a whole new face, voice and body.

But his character hadn’t come out yet, so they just plopped a long-haired wig on him. And all the characters were like “yeah that’s Vanya, obviously, nothing weird happened wym. She’s always had a deep voice and a masculine face and no boobs.”

And then he “gets a haircut” (took off the wig) and all the other actors had to pretend to go full Shocked Pikachu, who is that???

very big fan of when shows put wigs on actors and say ‘yeah. That’s him when he was younger fuck you’. No anti aging ai, no teen actor hired. Just. The same guy with a fuckass wig

Klaus: I cant even imagine the self control required to work at a bubble wrap factory

yeah diego would get all serious and look you dead in the eye like “would you still love me if i was a worm? would you feed me breadcrumbs?” i don’t take criticism.

Steve blackman i will never not have time to drag you you fucking bitch. You not only ruined a good show with your shitty choices for the fourth season and cut back 6 to 4 but you also blatantly ignored david castenada who tried telling you in the nicest way possible that that fuck ass choice of making a love triangle was uncomfortable and weird. I can't look at any of the interviewings for season 4 because I can feel this thick tension that is awkward between all of them. But lets not just talk about that lets talk about your fucking controversy that has just appeared of you allegedly making a toxic bullying work environment for your staffers. 12 anonymous people gave complaints to HR about your fucking behavior. You pitted staff against each other making an angry and untrustworthy working environment. Oh lets not also talk about the fact there were complaints of your ass making lewd remarks that people said were sexist, homophobic and transphobic. Elliot page praised you for your fucking handling of his characters transition but other sources say you also would praise your team and staff in public and than go behind there back and bully them in private you fucking two faced scumbag. You also would ice out your own fucking staff if they didnt fall in line with what you wanted or would blatantly get rid of them. How fucking power hungry do you have to be to do that shit. Lets not also forget that you were a bastard to a poor pregnant woman who didnt tell you she was pregant when she was hired and had to go on maternity leave so you failed to extend her contract because she didnt make it your business she was pregant you fucking creep. You gossiped and talked shit about your own staff but really you should praise them since they're there to help make this show run. Their there to make this whole operation not fucking crumple and you’d think you’d give them some sort of respect but you wanna act like a little bitch and whine and cry when you dont get your way and get called out when they dont wanna do something that is uncomfortable for not just them but everyone else. Let's also not talk about how you did not give proper credit to those who made scenes and stories for the show and took all that credit for yourself. Your a fucking piece of shit that couldnt come up with your own ideas so you stole everyone else’s because your unoriginal and had nothing good to input within the conversation. On top of all that, I think people should check your computer because you had no problem making a creepy relationship between two vastly differently aged actors. Aidan Gallagher is freshly of age to depict mature romantic relationships within tv shows and you instead of finding someone who is more closely to his age you pick the actress that he GREW UP AROUND. HE WAS A CHILD WHEN THEY FIRST MET. But also fuck Aidans parens too for not maybe coming out and saying that this is fucking creepy. Maybe they where silenced and paid off to stay quiet but looking at Rob gallaghers creepy and controversial fucking behavior anyway, i dont think it took much for them to be silent. The fact that you deny any and all allegations of any of those claims and your representatives tried to save your ass steve and than there was a investigation which surprise sur-fucking-prise was less than comprehensive. You probably paid those investigators off to get off your ass and have your representatives scrambling so you don’t get cancelled and you keep lining your pockets with money that you probably stole from your staff too since you wanna steal their work. so might as well double it and give it back to yourself, right? . Fuck you and everything you stand for steve blackman you toxic, manipulative, predatory, creepy fucking bastard. Fuck you.

bored as fuck. poll be upon ye

Looks like Klaus put a random space in his name. The question is if he did it on purpose or if it’s just one of those things he was too lazy to fix and pretended that he did it on purpose.

my favorite part abt the bowling alley scene in S1 was how they gave the worker shit for telling then they had to bowl but took the time to rent out and put on bowling shoes

but not only did they rent them for no reason they stole them shits too 😭

Finally finished The Umbrella Academy.

Can we talk about the fact while Five is a mentally a middle aged man, he is also biologically a thirteen year old boy?

He has physically regressed. Him physically regressing could cause him to mentally and emotionally regress too. He has the brain development and the hormones and the body of a young teenager, a thirteen year old kid.

The old version of him did not have mood swings and seemed a lot for emotionally stable. He did not throw temper tantrums like Five in his thirteen year old body.

It can seem like Five is a kid trying to fix everything and behave like an adult.

He does stupid and cute things that a kid would do, like clinging to a comfort objects or only eating sweet foods or getting drunk in the middle of a bank to the point of giggling.

I honestly thought if they were going do something with Five and Lilia it would have been, Five having a puppy crush and it would not have gone anywhere. It would have been like the troupe of the little brother having a crush on his older brother's girlfriend/wife and she loves him because he is family but sees him as her annoying little brother and her boyfriend/husband's annoying little brother. In the earlier seasons it seems like he is a kid with crush. He is flirting in a kid like way. He was pulling her pigtails, teasing her.

He does not like the way The Handler treats him in his kid body. The way he acts around her seems like a kid trying to protect and keep themselves safe from a predatory adult. There are four known reactions of fear and trying to protects yourself: fight, flight, freeze and fawn. At the beginning he is trying to impress her, fawn. Which is something children often do, they think if they make the adult happy it will keep them safe.

Overall, from a scientific point of view and character analysis point of view this is very interesting.

deli owner boss five just has a drawer full of name tags labeled ‘five’ in the back room

Isn't it funny that there are only fives in Deli and they wear name tags? You're all fives.
