The Umbrella Academy Season 2 Review


The Umbrella Academy Season 2 Review

A Good Sequel

The Umbrella Academy Season 2 just premiered a little bit ago, and I watched the season in two days... can you tell I enjoyed it?
The Umbrella Academy Season 2 follows The Umbrella Academy from season one as they transport back in time to the early 1960s. The problem is, they transported back to different parts of the 1960s. Some are there for a couple years, others it's only been a month. But what also followed them is the apocalypse. So, this time around they have to prevent the apocalypse again, but there are a few special curveballs in the mix they don't see coming.
Alright, The Umbrella Academy Season 2 did take somewhat of a lazy route and do the "apocalypse" thing again, but they pulled it off in my opinion. There are new elements that weren't their before and there is a ton of character growth for some in the family. A few of them didn't get the screen time they deserved which is a shame. 
The fight scenes in this show are always well choreographed. Every fight seems to be high stakes, and they never loose their pace. Each character has their own unique fighting style and the show doesn't hold back from showing it. 
As mentioned before, there is growth for the cast as a whole, but some got the spotlight more than others. I really wish they would have given more equal time to each character. I do think they did a good job with keeping their personalities in line with the previous season though.
If you were a fan of the first season, season two of The Umbrella Academy is worth a watch. I can't wait for season 3!


final score: 4.1/5

Norsemen Netflix Show Review So Far

Norsemen Netflix Show Review So Far The funniest show I've seen in years I've been watching a show on Netflix called Norsemen, and I swear this is the funniest show I've seen in years! I can't understate how funny this show can really be, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say about 90% of the jokes land. Norsemen starts off in 790 AD, and follows a few Vikings and their slaves. The show goes through their lives and their trials, but it's done with a comedic spin. If you haven't yet, watch the trailer above to get a better idea of the show. I will say this, this show reminds me of Monty Python ! Some of the jokes Norsemen  are gut busting, and will almost have you rolling on the floor laughing. In an age of bad comedies this show is gold.  I just started watching season 2 the other day, and I just want to keep watching. The episodes are about a half hour long each, and it's the perfect time frame to get the story across. I wouldn't c...
