The Umbrella Academy
I'm halfway through season one. I can't say that it's great..."great" is far too much praise for a story and show this disjointed and uneven.
But I'll tell you what: there's no way in hell that I'm not finishing it. It's flawed, sure, but it's compelling. Plus, a few characters stand out amidst a sea of others that generally don't. Poor Ellen Page doesn't have a ton to work with so far for her character, and Luther and Diego are pretty forgettable (albeit serviceable) action movie fodder. But Number 5 is surprisingly awesome, which isn't easy for any actor to pull off, especially a child one, and while Klaus can get on my nerves, he does at least have fantastic taste in music (if not fashion).
