so here are some thoughts I have regarding The Umbrella Academy, season 3 (behind cut to avoid spoilers).

1. I really wasn't surprised by Allison's actions this season. They really are in line with everything we learned about her in S1. She started the series as very selfish, imo. And, like, she used her powers on her own daughter, so I definitely wasn't surprised when she used them on Luther. Also, while it was harsh, she did have the right to refuse Viktor's apology. I didn't like it, tbh, but we all have to arrive at forgiveness in our own pace. Having said this, I really do like Allison. I just think she, like all the Hargreeves, is a complex character with good and bad sides and I'm glad we're seeing them.

2. I LOVED LOVED LOVED everything about how they handled Vanya/Viktor. I won't say more, as I'm sure there are lots of more elegant, and well thought out posts, out there on social media for anyone looking for it. but, to me, it was FANTASTIC.

3. I can't help but wonder what's up with Sparrow!Ben ending up with the Umbrella!crew and how that fits in with the Ben we saw in the ending cut scene.

4. Was anyone else wondering if, perhaps, the Raymond that Allison 'imagined' she spoke to on the swings, was the Raymond from the reset Universe? I mean, it was weird how he told her to survive and then at the end? I don't know. I just got the feeling he knew what had happened.

5. . I was very unhappy that Allison killed Harlan though. He really didn't do hurtful things on purpose and that he could do them at all was on Vanya. Like she said, the bad things were all her. Also, it was Callum Keith Rennie and I LOVES him! :P

6. Speaking of killing Harlan, I think that whole part of the story line was a really interesting way to let Viktor see what parts of being a part of the team was like. We also got that great scene between her and Five. (also the actor playing Five? He does an OUTSTANDING job as an old man in a young man's body.)

7. Swinging back to Ben. I LOVED how close drunk!Ben and drunk!Klaus were at the wedding! It made me think of S1 and S2 Klaus and Ben. I hope we get more of their dynamic if we get a 4th season.

8. What happened to Sloan? I think it would break Luther's heart if he couldn't find her. (Also, perhaps her not being there is the reset universe's way of saying she wasn't suppose to exist?)

9. The whole dead!Moms thing was a disappointment. It was just another "dead woman moves story forward' trope that really disappointed me they used at all.

10. Finally (for this post at least), Diego and Lila just filled me with glee through the whole series. :D
