Farm scene was stupid.
Ryan’s voice is ruining every scene he’s in.

Ive seen it mentioned online and seem to be thinking it as well. The character may be like an imagination for Butcher. Similar to a devil on your shoulder.

Agree on the first part, no idea how he was meant to do that.
I did think that but there was so many of them that she didn’t have time to head pop all of them.
She's also seemingly invulnerable though if a bullet to the head did nothing what's a flying sheep gonna do to her?
I hate thinking too much about this season because the writing has really fallen off a cliff
It's the strained face and little noises he often makes before he speaks for me. It looks like he's squeezing out a jobbie.
I was wondering that too
This show is bloody brilliant.
Yep me too, completely lost sometimes on how some powers work and affect people.
Read the last sentence in the voice of Butcher.
It entertains me and that’s why I keep watching. I love the OTT gore and silliness. Escapism is good.
"This man is in no condition to feck a sheep."
Frenchie has had some mediocre story lines this season but that line and the delivery was gold.

Watched the first two episodes of the new season, pretty awesome stuff - I think the review bombing is down to it having plenty of parallels with Trump and Homelander, which the incel cultists don't like.
It's had that plus general mockery of the right wing for 4 seasons now. It took a while for a lot to cotton on so I doubt it's that.
That's very true but didn't Kripke say anyone complaining about it being too woke can basically do one?
He said that just as the new series started and then massively negative reviews started flooding in.
I guess can never rule it out but personally I think it has dipped a little so far this season.
Just read it’s because the poor kid is going through puberty and his voice hasn’t dropped yet.
Your stages of puberty being forever preserved on one of the biggest shows in the world must be hellish.
Another solid episode I thought, building to an interesting storyline. Got to love the comment about Jewish space lasers, one for Majorie Taylor Greene .
.Brilliant episode, probably the best of the season. I just binged Gen V again the last few days so the Tek Knight scene was especially hilarious.
More Tek Knight was fun. The funniest part was Hughie desperately trying to find safe words. I legit laughed there. A train is on thin ice I mean a grizzly death is in his future but I think redemption first. Sage is in an interesting place. I would kind of like to see more uses of her brilliance and less reliance on dumbing her down so the plot can go forward. She knows what her weakness is someone of her brilliance with full access to Vaught now I would like to see her countering some of these attacks more.
Now even Firecracker who she put in her place is gearing up to get revenge. Sage should be ready for whatever that idiot comes up with.

Why is this show obsessed with showing mens arses and willys? I'm far from prude but the gross-out stuff this season has just been too much and not all that funny.
Easily the worst episode of the whole show for me
episode 5 and it feels like absolutely nothing has happened again. Spent like 30 Minutes on Hughie being sexually assaulted because..?I've mentioned this in a separate thread about nudity on TV. I think certain programmes are trying to almost 'redress the balance' after years of female sexualisation on tele. It almost feels like they're saying "ha! Take that, you perpetrators of the male gaze. Now you have to look at some male arses and dicks. Not so nice when the tables are turned, ey?" That scene in Gen V where the woman turns tiny and starts climbing up a bloke's erect penis was one of the more bizarre examples.
Like GOT always having to have exposition scenes in a local brothel.
I think this is it. Things a show could not ever get away with before premium cable and Streaming in shows they now push the balance and try to see where the new boundaries may be.
The last 2 episodes have been.... Whacky for the sake of it. Not a fan. Hope the next one gets back on track
The "I miss my dad" moment after all the wackiness fell very flat.
I feel like a lot of this show now is just...
Fecking lay off the "wacky sex stuff lolz."

Does the comic have the same regular forays into penis, arse and general bodily fluid gross out stuff?
Feels like you could probably fill a good 3-4 episodes from the seasons so far just with bizarre fetish scenes.

The comic is worse for that stuff
This is the only comic adaptation where pretty much everyone who has read it is glad that they not only toned it down but also massively changed the original storylines (because they were so stupid).
It never felt so egregious before though. Like MM being choked by the 10 foot long dick was funny.
You can show a tiny man crawling inside a penis, a tiny woman climbing a penis and a human centipede rimming session but they won't show Firecracker's crackers? No fair.
If I remember right in the comics at Herogasm some supes were injecting heroin mixed with crushed aborted foetuses and Queen Maeve's vaginal mucus.
Maeve’s vaginal secretions and heroin should be enough to get anyone off.
Yeah does feel wacky for the sake of wacky at the minute. The plot progress to scene ratio is way off.
Also shows how pointless Frenchie has become that when Kimiko was asking to see a prisoner I was thinking “who could that be”. I only clocked on the second scene of her asking because I completely forgot he was in the show.

Male nudity is just funnier. There's no conspiracy or reason to feel uncomfortable.
It has lost its way, I still watch but never as soon as the episode is out.
Yeah, this season has gone downhill. I'll keep watching to see where it goes, but it's lost the spark it had that made it so enjoyable.
The Boys is dead. The Bear is dead. They should do a crossover mash-up, where Homelander becomes the new sous chef at the Bear, or, conversely, Cousin becomes the newest member of the Seven. Both of these shows had some great scenes but saying they are treading water is being far too generous.
