I really enjoyed the second season of Umbrella Academy, far more than the first season. I think they embraced the Legends of Tomorrow style silliness in this iteration, and the show is much better for it.
it does seem a little sillier, in a good way. i like s2 better than s1 too - i think it makes more sense, altho that could be because i'm already familiar with the world and the characters, so i'm not trying to figure everything out at once. but also it could just be a better written and better plotted season.
Oh, are you watching Doom Patrol too? I wasn't keen to try it at first because i thought it'd be a bit too dark for me. It is definitely kinda dark and the characters are all pretty shitty people, but it's also pleasingly bizarre, similar to Dirk Gently. Worth a watch.
i think doom patrol is on hbo? a channel i don't get, anyway, so i'm not watching. "similar to dirk gently" is actually a selling point, tho. i mean, i like pleasingly bizarre, even when it's too bizarre to make sense. see also: legion, which was utterly bonkers and never at any point cohered into a story i could understand.
Oh that rescue dogs thing is interesting - I was looking at an artist/photographer on instagram yesterday who does the same thing but dresses them in flower crowns. I wonder who inspired who here? I suppose it doesn't matter, both are helping the doggos.
dogs in flower crowns! could just be something in the ether. and like you said, does it matter as long as the doggos get a. help, and b. super cute photos taken of them?
i didn't even know alan rickman was in a little chaos until i was watching. it was such a nice bonus.
