Why Did It End? This superhero entry epitomizes what was once considered a successful run for a streaming original. When the streamers first started producing scripted originals, they would often prove supportive of their shows and would allow them to go three to four seasons with the final year announced in advance. The Umbrella Academy got that chance while also establishing itself as a well-respected sci fi/superhero series. And considering it had strong viewership throughout its run, there is always the possibility that Netflix will consider a sequel series or spin-off at some point.
