Let me concentrate on what I most enjoyed: The tongue-in-cheek self mockery is sometimes subtle, sometimes garish, yet always welcome. At its best, Umbrella acad manages to mock how we feel about violence, how we feel about music, and how we feel about musical accompaniment for violence.
The show pokes fun at the internal radar we all use for determining whether a character will live past the episode, and insists on killing its walking dead the instant you decide they'll make it (in one case by the insertion of 25 or so. knives into the characters body.
Of course time travel is involved, and that gets poked too (though it could stand a bit more prodding.
Oh, and rest assured: If a character has no redeeming characteristics, he'll be killed very soon...no time to savor your pique.
