Life Among the Septics

The writers are so woke and hardcore leftist that it's laughable. Aside from politics, it's a decent episode. Entertaining, brutal, but there's also too much CGI gore. Such a cop out.

But it's so politically skewed, it's insane. There's even a reviewer calling the right "fascists," which is a constant lie people like to believe in. These kinds of people, like that reviewer and also like the villains in this show, want the government to control everything. Usually I can turn a blind eye to political and social bigotry, but it's so blunt and obnoxious, I can't ignore it. The writers are creative, I'll give them that. But this episode is the toughest one to get through so far, because it's obviously following some misguided, corrupt agenda for the left.

And to that reviewer who said the right are fascists and that the left are a "little bit nicer," sorry buddy but the truth hurts. I'd rather have a leader of the nation who's somewhat mean on Twitter, than a brain-dead puppet ran by psychotic, murderous, economy-killing, traitor liberals. Or any liberal for that matter. It's the PEOPLE who matter, not your "precious feelings." Really the psychotic bigotry of the antagonists in this show are a fantastic representation of "art imitating life" when it comes to American liberalism.

Oh "The Boys" paints a real good picture of how America is as a society and how dysfunctional our system of government is. Except not in the way the writers intended. This episode is the one that voids the benefit of the doubt.

The Boys have hit their low-point. It's become such a political statement at this point that it's painful. I imagine it should be painful for anyone on the political spectrum. At least, for anyone with a brain and common sense.

Which Episode Will the Deep "Jump the Shark"?

Not in the Fonzie style, The Boys series did that early this season.

I mean in the twisted way The Boys always deal with pescaphillia.

The first two seasons of this show were amazing. I have watched the first 3 and fallen asleep each time.

I'm not alone.

This show used to be a "must see" series like GoT or Ozark. Now, it is more like a chore. I'm hoping it is like the 5th season of GOT.

I'm not holding my breath.

The worst part is I live in Toronto and the inconvenience with traffic, is no longer worth the end product.

If the show must continue, can you please use another city for filming.

In the second episode of "The Boys" season 4, the series heavily relies on Homelander to maintain its momentum and intrigue. Antony Starr's portrayal continues to be a magnetic force, commanding every scene with his blend of charm, menace, and complexity. His character's evolution and the dynamics he shares with others, especially Butcher and their son Ryan, drive the episode's narrative with intensity and suspense, showcasing why Homelander remains one of the show's standout elements.

However, despite Homelander's compelling presence, other characters like Frenchie, Kimiko, Hughie, and Starlight struggle to contribute meaningfully to the episode. Their scenes feel disconnected from the main plotlines and fail to sustain viewer interest or advance the overarching story in significant ways. This disparity in narrative impact creates a noticeable imbalance, where Homelander's storyline thrives while others falter, bogging down the series with slower pacing and less engaging character arcs.

As a result, while Homelander continues to carry the show with his riveting character development and intricate relationships, the lackluster contributions from secondary characters in episode 2 leave much to be desired. Viewers may find themselves longing for more cohesive storytelling and dynamic interactions across all fronts, in order to fully capture the essence of what makes "The Boys" a compelling and provocative series.

This is shaping up to be the best season yet. The current events satire is strong but stuff like TruthCon has got to be the easiest satirical target ever. Makes me wonder why this hasn't been tried more often. Is The Boys the only series with the guts to do it?

Adding a character like Sister Sage could have backfired because it's easy to come up with a new character who is super strong or can melt you from the inside out or whatever. You just hand the work off to the CGI folks.

But the smartest woman, sorry, person, in the world is not so easy. The writers have given themselves the challenge of writing a person who actually IS smart, says smart things, does smart things. And you know what, I think they're pulling it off.

Absolutely perfect rendition of what the rest of the world see's baked in to America and its politics.

Wake up and smell that two party politics is absolutely useless. You have to both head back to the middle and accept that that's the best things can be. Partisan politics will never work.

Also as an aside do you want to be part of the fascist, right wing a holes or the side that's accepting and generally just a bit nicer. I for one would definitely pick the nicer side. That relates to the boys and general politics. The US is definitely giving off 1930's Austria and Germany vibes at the moment. Time to stop watching the right wing broadcasts come back to centrist politics (which you don't have... lol)

Back on topic, the boys delivers exactly what it should - Over the top, gory, crude fun whilst taking pot shots at the ridiculous situation the US public are allowing to happen under their noses.
