Netflix fans break down in tears as 'best show of all time's' final season kicks off - sobbing 'I'm not ready to say goodbye!'

As a longtime fan of comic book adaptations, I must admit that the news of The Umbrella Academy’s fourth and final season leaves me with a bittersweet feeling. Having followed this unique and captivating series since its debut in 2019, I find myself reminiscing about the thrilling journey of the Hargreeves siblings through their ups and downs.


Netflix enthusiasts have found themselves deeply moved, as the supposedly greatest series ever produced began airing its last season on Thursday.

In the science fiction drama series, featuring Elliot Page, we find a band of former superheroes coming back together following the demise of their foster father, Sir Reginald Hargreaves.

In the last season, the Hargreaves siblings find themselves apart following the reset of their timeline and the loss of their powers. Now, they have to rely on their own human ingenuity to stay alive. However, they’ll need to reunite one final time to thwart a secretive organization called The Keepers.

After five years, the cherished series is wrapping up, leaving devoted viewers grappling with the announcement. One fan expressed their feelings by saying they aren’t prepared to bid farewell yet.

Eagerly dashing to what was once known as Twitter following each episode, I couldn’t help but join the chorus of passionate fans expressing their thoughts. It’s clear that we’re all struggling to come to terms with the heart-wrenching twists and turns – we’re absolutely crushed!

They penned: ‘First episode of Umbrella Academy Season 4 was PEAK. Lets hope the next 5 are as good. I’m not ready to say goodbye.’

‘I’m so excited but sad at the same time cause that means no more umbrella academy after this?’

‘I love you the umbrella academy you are the best series of all time.’

‘This new season of the Umbrella Academy might be the best one if they stick the landing.’

In this series, the story unfolds in a universe where, on October 1, 1989, an unusual event occurred: forty-three women worldwide mysteriously gave birth, despite showing no signs of pregnancy prior to that day.

In this rephrased version, seven out of forty-three kids ended up being taken in by wealthy magnate Sir Reginald Hargreaves (portrayed by Colm Feore). After discovering they possessed extraordinary abilities, he established The Umbrella Academy as a home for these special children.

The TV show “The Umbrella Academy” originates from the Dark Horse comic book series penned by Gerard Way and illustrated by Gabriel Ba. This series has been skillfully transformed for television by Steve Blackman.

In this series, Blackman plays a multi-faceted role as its creator, overseer (showrunner), and high-ranking executive producer. Joining him in these roles are Jennifer Cecil, Mike Richardson, Keith Goldberg, Scott Stuber, Beau Bauman, Pascal Verschooris, Jesse McKeown, Abbey Morris, and Jeremy Webb.

Comic book creators Gerard Way and Gabriel Bá both serve as co-executive producers on the series.

The main actors in this production include Elliot Page, Tom Hopper, David Castañeda, Emmy Raver-Lampman, Robert Sheehan, Aidan Gallagher, Justin H. Min, Ritu Arya, Colm Feore, Nick Offerman, Megan Mullally, and David Cross.

Back in 2022, it was revealed that the fourth season of the show would be the last. 

Previously, Showrunner Steve Blackman reassured fans with a statement that the upcoming final season would live up to its predecessors, expressing enthusiasm for the exceptional narrative they have planned, saying, “We’ve got an incredible tale on the horizon.”

“He expressed his enthusiasm about how the faithful followers of The Umbrella Academy can now witness the appropriate conclusion to the journey of the Hargreeves siblings, which we started five years back.”

‘But before we get to that conclusion, we’ve got an amazing story ahead for season four, one that will have fans on the edge of their seats until the final minutes.’

As a lifestyle aficionado, I had the pleasure of sharing some tantalizing insights about the final season with Netflix’s TUDUM audience. Here’s a sneak peek at what you can anticipate!

As someone who has faced numerous challenges throughout my lifetime, I can attest that the siblings in question possess a remarkable resilience and determination. Their ability to rise to the occasion is truly admirable, especially given the new enemies they now face who seek their destruction. However, what intrigues me most is how they manage without their powers, for I know well the importance of having one’s strengths at hand during difficult times. It seems that they have found a way to adapt and overcome, but I can’t help but wonder if there’s even a possibility of regaining those powers. The stakes have never been higher, and it will be fascinating to see how this situation unfolds.

In the third season of the series, the character played by Page, Vanya Hargreeves, was portrayed as transitioning into Viktor Hargreeves, which mirrored the actor’s real-life identity, as he publicly announced his transgender status in December 2020. (135 words)

In an interview on Late Night With Seth Meyers in June, the page spoke candidly about the topic and praised co-creator/showrunner Blackman, expressing that he is a fantastic individual who appeared genuinely enthusiastic about integrating it into the series.
