Holy shit this was covered in an episode of The Dollop podcast and it was GLORIOUS.

“It’s Jeremy Bearimy. I don’t know what to tell you.”

I kind of took it as indicative of how far into time- (or other-) psychosis Five has already slipped that both versions of him are trying to make this plan work in any way. They both know that it can’t possibly work - but it’s for the Umbrella Academy and anyway, stage 1 of paradox psychosis is denial. The fact that…

If you asked me to rank fandoms by their chill-natured willingness to put up with having the piss taken out of their franchise ... well, I think we can maybe see the fundamental conceptual issue with this show.

“Sign it to Melllvar. ‘Melllvar’ has 3 L’s.”

I loved that bit where the Hotel employee tackles Five not because he just killed a bunch of people but because he destroyed a vending machine.

Hmmm, maybe you’re right. What about “Waiting for Picardot"?

“He’s not a child, he’s thirty-four!”

“We would have figured that out eventually.”

Let’s not forget the rampant trans erasure by having a small boy proudly announce that “Boys have a penis, girls have a vagina”!

Here I was thinking that the issue with police officers in schools and the “school-to-prison” was that the police officers are manhandling and arresting children for minor infractions. But apparently the issue is that police officers are going into classrooms undercover to ask the children, “Who is your daddy and what…

The Öga För Öga scene is comedic gold. Luther and Diego are basically my last two brain cells.

Perhaps because while, physically, 5 is a teenage boy, he has the mind of a 60-year old and when you get older, you tend to wear the same clothes.

Look, we all love a good prank show, but this really steps over the line. That vicious prankster is picking on that feeble-minded old man (who clearly suffers from dementia) and making him look confused and stupid. The old man obviously has to go to the bathroom (or he wouldn’t be sitting on the chair like it’s a…

The numberings go from weakest (Luther at 1) to strongest (Vanya at 7). Five is clearly weaker than Vanya, and Ben at 6 is basically a walking Cluthlu (and he might have unlocked more aspects to his power if he hadn’t died early, as Klaus/Five/Diego/Vanya all do), so I think that ordering is correct.

Whether it was…

The rankings were never about power but about usefulness to Reginald. This is why Luther is Number 1 - he was the most obedient.

Episode 1 - The Rise of Skywalker
Episode 2 - Revenge of the Sith
Episode 3 - Attack of the Clones
Episode 4 - Return of the Jedi
Episode 5 - The Force Awakens
Episode 6 - The Last Jedi
Episode 7 - The Empire Strikes Back
Episode 8 - A New Hope
Episode 9 - The Phantom Menace

It could be argued they’re also ranked by powers, but in ascending order:

How does a violin solo shatter the moon? Where do super smart chimps come from? For that matter how did HHargreeves know about the miracle babies ahead of time?
