One fan shared an emotional message about the series, writing: “I love you all so much. Since 12 you’ve ‘taken me under your wing’ and raised me to the day I am now 18. Through thick and thin, you’ve always been my family and I would say we grew up together. You don’t know me but you saved my life.”

“I love you the Umbrella Academy you are the best series of all time,” one fan wrote. Another added: “This new season of the Umbrella Academy might be the best one if they stick the landing.”

“Umbrella Academy has one of the best plots and story building ever, and also the cinematic shots with how everything lines up? soooo perfect i love it,” one fan wrote the day of the season four release.


“This season of Umbrella Academy (season 4) was literally one of the best. What the hell? and now the show is over,” another fan wrote with a crying emoji.

Another fan who watched all six of the new episodes in less than one day, quickly shared a bit of a review: “Umbrella Academy season 4 was genuinely not the worst nor the best of the series. I will say it is one of the weaker ones of the series but it has its strengths. A lot of odd choices where put into this season but I like the way they put the weird drama all over this season.”
