The unconventional fantasy Netflix Original is the story of seven siblings who went their own separate ways after a mission went wrong. Years later, the tragic death of the patriarch of their family, Sir Reginald Hargreeves, forced them all to come under one roof once again. The supernatural, time-bending and emotionally charged missions and dilemmas that follow is essentially the premise of the show. Season 1 saw one of its members, Five, attempting to avoid an Armageddon.

Season 2 picks up exactly where Season 1 left off. The unfortunate turn of events put the siblings in the same spot once again. But this time around, the siblings must deal with a different kind of challenge altogether; that of ending up in different time zones. One must watch The Umbrella Academy on Netflix to see how things playout for the siblings this time around.

Critics' Opinion:

The Umbrella Academy met with commercial and critical acclaim due to the creator’s ability to strike the near-perfect balance between fantasy and reality.

The only show that is anything like The Umbrella Academy at the moment is Amazon Prime Video’s The Boys. The show also received positive acclaim for its unusual take on comedy (Inspired by German sensibilities) and sibling relationships. Both the seasons of The Umbrella Academy is available on Netflix.
