The Umbrella Academy, Season 2

by multiple writers and directors
Five’s plan for the Umbrella siblings to escape the apocalypse by going into the past ends up scattering them throughout different years of Dallas in the 1960s. They manage okay on their own until shortly after 11/22/63, when secondary effects from changes to the timeline cause a nuclear holocaust that can be averted only by recently arrived Five jumping back to 11/15/63 to exert his unique charm into getting the gang to work together.

  • Time Runs in Reverse for Some Beings: Curse that writer Steve Blackman! May he never have an umbrella when he needs one and always have one when he doesn’t!

Apparently, there’s a green Infinity Stone in the mix, too. Stay tuned.
INDEXER NOTES (SPOILERS!)
  • The Ending—Up in the ITTDB Citadel, we gave a collective groan when Five rewound time to save the day at the end of Episode 10. It was a cheat on the writers part to fix everything by using a power that had never shown up before, and it set things up so that no future mistake will ever be a problem. We can’t understand why the writers missed a much more powerful ending of mortally wounded Five jumping back in time a couple minutes with his final bit of strength to warn everyone. Then wounded Five can die happy, while warned Five and his sibs kick ass.
