*spoilers for the final season of the umbrella academy*0ññ Klaus has the coolest power on #TheUmbrellaAcademy . hands down. he talks to ghosts, regularly chats with God, and is immortal. yet for four seasons, the show refuses to explore those powers in any meaningful way.

this is one of my favorite acting moments from delainey. this entire scene her & louis are talking business, getting their story straight about how they met bruce. she speaks so matter-of-factly. until this moment, when she turns away from louis. a small break in composure. #iwtv

@scharnagl_ about sororities: they alienate girls in sororities from outside of them as well as friends who are not in sororities. Was told by a friend that we couldn’t hang out b/c of rush, despite me not rushing at all. financial consequences if seen w/ girls not in your sororities.

Klaus' connection to the after life opens this universe up so much. It's a bit of lore I'm always thinking about when the Hargreaves are moving through timelines. like, what does the god on a bicycle think about all this? Ghosts are always asking for klaus' help -- surely that

means he's some sort of master of death, right? one foot in, one foot out of life and death. but there's never any exploration of the implications of klaus' powers. Take Five for example -- he can time travel, and by doing so, he fucks up a lot of things. so what does it mean

confession. I like how Hen's medical school storyline wraps up. I like that she goes for something new at 40 years old. I like that she fails, then tries again. and I love that when she succeeds in it, she realizes she has everything she needs already in her job at the 118.

for someone to influence the after life? A realm so mysterious it's in black and white (lol). but setting aside the worldbuilding aspect, klaus' powers are also interesting with how they work as part of the umbrella academy. This led to some really cool beats in season

calling a character a "plot device" isn't a real critique btw. very basic definition of plot device is something that moves a plot forward. that's not inherently a negative thing. and anyway, you're ignoring the obvious foundations they are laying that makes Tommy more grounded

character actually there. I knowwww people are going to say there isn't any depth there, but that's not true. it is there, even if you think it's not enough. turning him into a sexual predator gets us nowhere and creates an even more hostile fandom space.

whew, this is a fantastic analysis and echoes similar thoughts I've had whenever I see people say he's still on the hamster wheel with tommy. if that's your read then you're not paying attention to buck's character and his arc since season 1

hands down, 3x10 is the best episode of #RoswellNM . smooth, intriguing, confident. It’s also the most Sci fi I’ve seen the show get and I love that for them!!!

recorded 3.5 hours, cut it down to 3 hours, and somehow still didn't say everything I wanted to say (probs look out for some other 911 content from me). But this #911abc season 7 discussion is now live. @InBetweenDrafts @josecordova
