The Only Man in the Sky

'The Only Man in the Sky' is another excellent episode, advancing the plot without rushing into it. I can't think of many shows that manage to maintain their quality through action and non-action both, with the perfect balance and pacing to boot. The actors deliver their usual top-notch performances; Anthony Starr is a very convincing sociopath, and Karen Fukuhara manages to convey so much emotion with just her expressive face.

I especially loved the 'generic boy band' ending song with its creepy lyrics; it genuinely made me break out in hysteric laughter. That a show with this much social commentary and criticism of capitalist pop culture is produced by Amazon remains ironic...

The first ep was slow, although still good. However, this was exhilarating to watch. Each characters build up in this was amazing, no one felt like they were to fill up. One thing I would say is, when it reveals something unexpected or unanticipated, make it feel more like damn this really happened. Otherwise on the progress of the show this ep really pushed it to what's going to happen and did it in a good way.

Really loved this one. As some have pointed out, the confrontation between Homelander and Butcher was intense as hell and the parallels are evident and ingenious. It'll be interesting to see how far Butcher takes things this season, and it's scary to think that Homelander could very well go even further than that...

It seems like Kimiko and Mother's Milk will be getting some development too, which is exciting. Even Hugh is getting a surprisingly compelling arc so far.

These first two episode have started to establish dark, wonderful things still go come. I'm excited to see what happens.

Anthony Starr is the star of this show. His performance as Homelander is phenomenal and he deserves awards for it. Homelander's story is still the most interesting and the moment where he goes truly insane will be memorable.

The other character's stories are fine, but slow. I hope we get to see more action in future episodes, but it's promising so far.

How can this series be getting better and better. By the end of the series this was just one of the craziest moments of the series and its only 2 episodes in. I never thought this series was ever going to die out but i never thought it could go up.

For an independent run of comic to be translated into such a fan favorite tv show just proves that the writers and casting have been on point. I cannot praise the cast enough of this series with really only Karl Urban really the biggest name in the series!

The shock the episode was when the brutality hit but the end of it. This was a laughing matter as the incident from the first episode but pure unadulterated violence from the main cast!

Overall this was just another ride in a series that i dont ever want to end. So much of the story is a reflection on the world today but this is in no way preachy on trying to change anything.
