I just watched the first episode of The Umbrealla Academy.

And now this is on my iPod.

If you'd've asked me yesterday, I'd've told you I hate that goddam song.

The dance scene was fine. The acting and script are just awful. GoneOffShore Mar 2019 #2

It possibly could work as an animation, but as a full fledged TV movie, it's not good.

The characters are one dimensional and the actors the same. As once was said, 'Her range is from lower case 'a' to upper case 'A'.' About the only character that didn't fit that was the chimpanzee butler.

Cinematography, art direction, sound design, and music were good, but that's not enough to make me want to see anymore of this dreck.
