    hahahahahaha, way too late for that, i watched the first season, and all the characters moral base were so ugly their actions so contrived to ellicit a negative response, they got one from me, watched the first ep of the second season and that was it, just another over the top superhero show, trying to say something, and failing. sure lots of shoot em up and gore, a little sex, but overall forgettable as social genre commentary. at least for me. i did like Gen V, a lot a lot, I guess the reason for this disconnect is they wrote the kids likeable with some sort of moral center, even the bad one, and I understand that, that makes sens to me. Tragedy what happened Chance Perdomo, and hope the show is able to reground and continue. But The Boys, blech, you can have it.

      That’s how the source material is. That’s the whole point of the show.

      You missed the entire point

        yes, because the point, as they were attempting to animate it for consumption, sucked shit. they missed to point of making an entertaining show.
