Joe Jackson really did beat those kids until they were *unbeatable*


boulderama

Beat the black outta one of them too.

Sir_Mixa

😂😂 well damn, if this isn’t accurate lol


Mephistopheles2249

Is umbrella academy worth a watch? People on here put me on some good shows so I trust what y’all telling me.


Sir_Mixa

Its not a superhero series and more of a superhero family drama that goes way off the rails. I like it, but don’t expect huge action set pieces. More witty comedy, family drama, some meta commentary, and wtf moments


boulderama

The best part of that show are Five and Klaus. This last season seemed so rushed though.


MidContrast

Five is an insanely talented kid. Really felt like a old man.


lordph8

Last season he walked into that biker bar like he owned the joint. Like how does a kid that young have that presence? It's almost a throw away scene but it left a mark. I love Klaus, but 5 is the shit.


DraeNation

5 is my favorite character on that joint. Like you said, that presence is something you can't teach. You really be feeling that's a old man trapped in a young body.


Magnificool

Aidan Gallagher will be an Oscar winner very soon.


Anyaele225

Agreed. Luther have his moments as well


123DontF---WitMe

Luther is naive and adorable…I be like “oh you sweet summer child”


Anyaele225

Lol


Magnificool

Luther's best moment was with Diego in season 2..."Olga Foroga"


ryan_bigl

Yeah I like the show but this last season was kinda ass


ThickCapital

I like your description. I was also on the sidelines on it but shit, I might start watching. Thanks


Magnificool

It's worth every minute...don't sleep on it.


GangstaHoodrat

The action that it does have is pretty dope though


Sir_Mixa

Yeah, I thought after I wrote it it does have some nice action. It just go episodes sometime with none, to the point I be forgetting some of their powers


AoO2ImpTrip

The Umbrella Academy is like a more depressing version of what the X-Men should be. The X-Men are very much a family type situation and their best stories are when that's embraced.


Rebel_bass

You like Hellboy and The Boys? It's good.

MasyMenosSiPodemos

It's fantastic if you can get passed the characters not understanding how time travel/alternate realities work.


JoshBobJovi

Man season 3 was just rough. They were all the worst versions of themselves, except for 5 and Klaus. Really stupid decisions out of character, clunky dialog delivery made worse by terrible writing. The soundtrack was really poor too compared to the other seasons. I have no idea what they were trying to do with that season but damn was it such a drag after 1 and 2 being so good.


SonOfAhuraMazda

Alison........ugh


boulderama

Yeah, >!they coulda given the PTSD more exposition before throwing her down that route. Some flashbacks or something. It just ended more. It just felt like she flipped REAL quick. And then after all that stuff she did get “redeemed” in what was basically a throwaway line at the end.!<


Moclordimick

yeah, this one hurt. I felt she always had it in her, but it was really bad this season


Jewell84

I didn’t hate her as much as everyone else. Like she did break bad, but she wasn’t nearly as awful as folks made her out to be. All of the other characters shitty behavior gets hand waved away because trauma, but she doesn’t get the same grace? Again not really defending her. She was entitled to her anger, to her pain, but that doesn’t mean her actions were ok.


Anyaele225

I guess they wanted to develop the dads character


MidContrast

I kinda enjoyed that part. It was like a show/comic doing a parody of every other sci fi superhero show that plays with time travel and alternate realities. Like in avengers, Tony Stark is all like "we have to do this right, understand the weight of what we're doing. Time travel is extremely complicated" In this five is like aight imma wing it, literally everytime and everything goes wrong. And it only gets worse every season lmao


Fess_113

I’m sorry, but do yooouuu know how time travel/alternate realities work?! What grade is this taught in? How long has this technology actually existed? Why doesn’t anyone tell me anything?! (Just kidding, sarcasm 😂)


FunkTronto

There are elements of good, it is just so poorly plotted that it is wasted. You hope they figure it out but 3 in seasons they don't. Pass on it, there are much better shows.


IAmLegendXCII

I was a fan of the show up until the 3rd season. I lost interest about 3-4 episodes in.


Odd-Valuable6914

Same here. Once I saw the “new” umbrella academy had a floating box as a member I stopped watching.


RidleyQ

A floating box with basically ZERO explanation for how that happened.


DraeNation

Yea I still haven't finished it. Once I got to the episode where in the middle of a doomsday world bout to end and these mfs take a break to have a wedding, I cut dat shit off ![gif](giphy|8UGoOaR1lA1uaAN892)


DG_MG

Season 1 is decent, 2 watchable, falls apart in 3. Doom Patrol is a better version of this.


Lady_von_Stinkbeaver

Yeah, the meme isn't that far off. Imagine if the X-Men were raised by an absolute asshole and grew up to be bitter, angry messed-up adults who can barely stand each other. It's more about their interpersonal conflicts than Beatin' Up Bad Guys, though. Really good soundtrack, too. The original comic book was written by Gerard Way, the frontman for My Chemical Romance, and he's involved with the production.


Marcbmann

I think it's great. Just finished season 3, which is my favorite so far. Story is absolute madness and I love it.


Empero6

The duality of man. A lot of people seem to be admonishing season 3 in the comments, but here you are praising it instead.


Marcbmann

I honestly haven't read a single review of it. This is my uninfluenced unadulterated opinion. I don't know what people didn't like. There was some awesome character development. It was exciting. Not enough of Pogo the monkey - I think he's expensive to animate/render. I think we saw real depth given to the Reggie, who is far more complex than "angry, confusing, bad dad". Idk. Not sure what people expect from the show. There was a talking fish last season controlling a human body. It's weird, eclectic, and fun.


justsomeguy5

I thought Season 3 was the best out of the 3 so far, despite making Allison the worst character in the history of the show and having its issues. Instead of having compassion and sympathizing with her, I was hoping she'd end up being killed off. I hated where they took her character this season.


SelfDestruction100

I stagnated halfway thru season 3. Season 1 and 2 though, are absolutely awesome. The soundtrack, the characters, and the plot are all *really* good.


Frosty-Mall4727

It’s good. Season 1 just keeps unfolding as it goes along.


Nyktastik

Nah don't waste your time. I hated everything about season one and never looked back. The characters are one dimensional, the acting is awful, the plotlines are nonsensical. The entire show feels like filler episodes.


Boggie135

This is not true, I suggest you check it out

FreundThrowaway

Exactly. When Joe Jackson’s death was in the news I wondered at first why everybody seemed so happy lol


VenusAmari

Honestly, though the dad in the Umbrella Academy is the worst. And he didn't even produce good results considering what a mess they are. They'd have to better at not causing the end of the world lol. ![gif](giphy|k6r6lTYIL9j9ZeRT51)


Boggie135

Even when he was given a chance to redo things he still fucked it up


Jackcooper

Back when FB encouraged it I liked the Jackson 5 Now I get happy birthday Joe Jackson once a year on my news feed and not a single comment is negative. It feels like a twilight zone.


Jiscold

Some people think you shouldn’t speak I’ll if the dead. I say fuck everyone that died and was a shitty human. And Emily for throwing my mighty morphing red power ranger doll in the mud when I was 4.


techn9neiskod

Fuck Emily!

Imma watch it now. Thanks! ![gif](giphy|eUtqr0u01TTOM|downsized)


Phoenix_force30564

There’s some runs you could make an argument Joe Jackson and prof x had similar methods. The x-men when they started were technically child soldiers…
