Netflix &Umbrella Academy& opens in 1989, with 43 women across the world giving unexpected, simultaneous birth.
Fast forward 30 years, and seven of those (mostly) super-powered children were adopted by a wealthy benefactor, formed a crimefighting team called The Umbrella Academy, experienced tragedy and went their separate ways.
On the latest episode of the Original Content podcast, we&re joined by our original co-host Darrell Etherington to review the show.
The description above only scratches the surface of what going on in &The Umbrella Academy& (based on the comics by Gerard Way and Gabriel Bá) — there also a talking chimpanzee, an agency of time-traveling assassins, an impending apocalypse and much more.
What makes the series work, however, is a clear sense of the characters& personalities and pain — particularly Ellen Page Vanya, who continues to feel isolated from her adopted siblings thanks to her lack of powers.
And everything is accompanied by lively music, including a perfect dance scene set to Tiffany &I Think We&re Alone Now.&
We also cover last weekend Academy Awards: Who won, who should have won and who gave the best and worst speeches.
