Season 2 starts off by showcasing that the seven have time traveled into the past and are scattered across the years. Oh and they brought the end of the world back with them. The journey is off the umbrella academy finding their way back to each other to stop the world from ending, again!

This show is one of the best Sci-fi dramas on Netflix. The ethnic diversity and sexual orientation among the cast is applaudable. The show does not seem to be a drag and each passing movement only builds the suspense. The episodes also sheds some light on various important moments in history. All in all this movie is a full package of positive surprises.
