Male nudity is just funnier. There's no conspiracy or reason to feel uncomfortable.
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.
S02 E06, the Christmas dinner episode, was so unbelievably shit that I turned it off before it finished. The writing is awful. The directing is awful. The improvisational everybody-talk-at-once style they like to use is cliched and tired as feck. If this were some under the radar show, it wouldn't be so jarring when the reality doesn't match the hype.Bit much. I’ve not finished S3 of the bear yet but it’s been decent even if it hasn’t hit the lofty heights of S2. Far too soon to write either off really.

Back to Golden Girls it is, then!Just not for you then I guess.

Wonder if
Sage will end up coming back to help the boys out in some way. Or whether Hughie's cut will end up being noticed if the shape shifter ends up changing into him instead
Much better episode this week. They missed a huge opportunity though bynot killing Kimiko with the virus. Such a cop out writers are cowards
Only Starlight saw the cut I think?
Ah then they're fecked.
Yeah, it's a bit inconsistent. Supposedly it's only her brain that regenerates... so why does she not have a bullet-shaped hole in her skull?Sage is not invincible at all. She can be shot and killed just not in the head. And she was even worried about Deep puncturing her eye and going blind in the lobotomy scene. So she must not even be able to regenerate even that much in her head. They do need to reign in the regenerative stuff though. They need to differentiate between Kimiko( Deadpool level regen) and giving it to everyone.
Yeah, good call. Seems they've now decided that members of "The Seven" especially, are all fairly impossible to kill.I can't remember from earlier seasons, but are all supes this invincible? It was a huge deal for that first one with the explosive in the first season that he was super durable, but between Sage, Noir and Deep - they all seem almost Homelander levels of invincible.
Am I missing something? Like the Deeps powers should be he can communicate with swimmy things and breathe underwater. Not take a 45 lbs to the face.
Good episode. Anthony Starr had me rolling.

Yeah agreed about the last bit. They should've just maintained some sort of consistency throughout, but it's a minor point anyway.He's so good!
I suppose the seven are supposedly the best of the best. Powers do seem so inconsistent though based on what is needed for the story, but they are basically the JLA so not an issue being tough to kill.

She did… she doesn’t have one now. Unless she stuck a cork there and used a lot of make up.She does, that's how Homelander realized what happened when at Ted Knight's place. He saw a hole in her head.

She said her brain heals but the rest of her doesn't, so she's basically human otherwise.I mean, if Sage's superpower is intelligence, she took a bullet to the brain...felt like that was that. It was also really well done and setup imo and would have been a great ending for that character.
Now if we need to be rid of Sage, what can do it other than homelander?
Was it a stand-in arse, though?Didn't like the ending of the most recent episode. I don't really like shape-shifting as a major plot point like that.
