I haven't even seen anything since Corpse Bride (it's not like I have complaints about Corpse Bride and decided no more Tim Burton, it's just worked out that way) so perhaps it is not fair of me to judge, but I guess I do.

I can hardly believe no one has been saying that either the writers or the actor playing Diego are going for some Dean Winchester vibes. There's just something about how he walks and gets gruff when the plot turns serious.
I'm a couple years late to the party Katerina, but I just watched the first two episodes of The Umbrella Academy and was thinking to myself "Diego is totally superhero Dean Winchester!" David Castañeda even resembles Jensen, which I'm guessing is a coincidence?
My son made me watch The Umbrella Academy last year and they need to bring me more very soon. It is my understanding they are filming. I never watched Supernatural so I can't comment on the Dean comparison. Maybe some day I'll watch, really the only thing that turned me off in the first episode(s?) was that it was so dark, as in hard for me to see because the scenes were all in the dark. It was a while ago, so that is my only recollection.
Oh huh - I can see the Dean Winchester, but I didn't really pick up on it at the time.
I’m surprised that I’m liking Shadow and Bone as much as I do.
Did you not expect to like it? I’m only one episode in, I’m not sure how I feel about it yet
Other Netflix fantasy adaptations have left me cold.
Ah, thanks, that’s helpful
I am watching now. I had never heard of it but the author was just on Felicia Day’s podcast, and I really liked her. There is a cute goat that (I guess spoiler) does not die.
The goat is the real hero of the show!
And I just made the mistake of trying to watch the Shadow & Bones aftershow. I’m not sure how I feel about having my intelligence assaulted by Netflix so relentlessly like that.
