BobbyPhil1781 Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 Caught me off guard with the finale. Thought it was a very good episode as well. Looking forward to next season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minutemancl Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 For all the crap the comic book gets, I do think the storyline and ending, at a 1000 foot view, was very solid. They're going in a very different direction in the show. This season finale was relatively satisfying, but the season as a whole was honestly pretty bad. It was really weighed down by how bad the 'jokes' were and how on the nose it was. A little subtlety would have gone a long way. Comic spoilers: Spoiler The Boys finally stop Homelander, but that isn't enough for Billy. The last plotline in the book is Billy inches away from genociding every single supe in the world until Hughie stops him. I think they are heading ultimately towards that same conclusion in the show, but that's going to have to be done simultaneously with taking down Homelander and coming to a conclusion for Ryan. It will be interesting to see how they do it. There is a strong chance it is very bad and hamfisted, but I'll just hope it is better than what we just watched.

THE DUKE Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 The finale was by far the best episode of the season and even it felt it like it had some fat that could have been trimmed early on in the episode. About middle of the episode through the end though was the best this show has been since season one. Hopefully they can keep that energy for season 5 and worry a little less about the gross out moments and dumbass humor that lobotomized Sage would enjoy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackstar12 Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 (edited) I agree with others not a good season overall. They wasted a lot of time on pointless sub plots. Frenchie is a prime example of that. Now with 8 episodes to go hopefully they tone down the shock factor and actually bring up the tension that got me into this show in the first place.

Blackstar12 Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 Spoiler How convenient Starlight not only gets her powers back still don’t know how she lost it. She gets a huge upgrade and can now travel around Homelander speed. Also poor MM he needs to kill love sausage somehow lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
August4th Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 feel like they wasted Nueman. She peaked when she took care of that church guy at the end of season 2 Great finale tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
