The Superhero Show Show #335: Finale Patrol

The Superhero Show Show #335

Finale Patrol

On an all-new The Superhero Show Show, the Taste Buds discuss the season finale of Doom Patrol, and the season premiere of The Umbrella Academy!

That’s right, folks. The Taste Buds have no time for their typical B.S., because this is a huge week! No Bullpen, no Shushies, because Doom Patrol is gone for the year, and maybe forever! The season was cut short for stupid Covid, but does it still land the sticking? And then, INT THE SAME WEEK, The Umbrella Academy Season 2 premiered, so the Taste Buds cover this one episode before they jump to two-a-week next episode. That seems like so much! But then, in the meantime, they also cover the second-to-last weeks of Agents of SHIELD and Stargirl, and the SEASON FINALE of Warrior Nun. Could one show just have a normal episode this week? One can, and it’s Wynonna Earp, and there’s nothing normal about it! Quips and snow and so much more. It seems like too much show, and yet the Taste Buds perfectly stick the landing.
