The Boys - Amazon Prime Original - (**Spoilers**) (No Comic Spoilers!)

Clareman

My theory is that Stormfront reinvented herself before, Liberty I think it was so I expected a Darth Vader type reveal, Homelander just wants to be loved and no-one loves him now, can't wait for season 3 now.

Kripke in the Variety article said they were dropping hints about her since the first episode of season 2

I'd wanna see those hints cos they sailed right over my head. And like I said the Congress scene doesn't track against how we see the powers manifest in that finale scene. I mean sure, it was suss they survived but the show did too good a job showing them visibly baffled as the rest of us. Smells like a last minute decision to me, for the sake of trolling points.

I was fine with the head exploding reveal. She was working with the CIA chick so had more inside knowledge than most and it made no sense for her to be spared at the hearing so it all fits for me.

I'm only on episode 5 of season 2.

Great episode, wrapped up well.
Got great laugh from Frenchie's analysis of Wile E.Coyote's failings and the response!

Yeah Homelander knew deep down she was a cretin but the egomaniac that he is looked past it albeit with disgust.

I honestly have no idea...I thought maybe it was meant to be a like drinking the kool-aid thing?
Comic book readers might know?

There's nothing more exhilarating than watching a nazi get the **** kicked out of her.

they'll have to spoiler it though of course!!

Found this season fairly hit and miss. Lost interest in most of the characters. The initial idea is fantastic but it really starts to drag as it seems somewhat directionless.

Who was the supe who had a full body but no head ?

I've read a load of the comics and never seen it mentioned. It's a real drink so maybe it's some kind of ironic product placement.

As in a member of the Seven? That was Translucent. He was only fully invisible when naked. So there are posters and stuff of him where you see the costume he's wearing, but not his body.

I presume it was the invisible guy that hughie killed by blowing him up

Second season was for the most part boring, no hook, story line was lame. Showdown in the final episode was pathetic as were the effects. Poor decision getting rid of Elisabeth Shue, great character.

No nothing special about Fresca

Apparently its an in joke with the writers , one scene had the Deep drinking something and they thought it was funny to pick Fresca as nobody likes Fresca.
They then kept putting it in scenes to amuse themselves and it took on its own life from there.

It's the trash talk while kicking the fcuk out of her that gets me everytime. So satisfying and not often you can say that these days when the eventual pay off disappoints.

While I enjoyed the 2nd season, I agree with your last two points. Expected a little more of the final battle and Elisabeth Shue was definitely missed this season

Love this

Birneybau

I thoroughly enjoyed it and have no nits to pick with it. Not as if it was going for the prestige drama vote. Pure entertainment.

Anthony Starr deserves massive recognition, Karl Urban has charisma and I forgive it any perceived flaws.

Hughie was fine.

Skyrimaddict

I think its a great show so far, and the deviations from the comics is good. It tooka bit of time to get used to, and the scenes are similar enough to the comics that you read them expecting one thing but getting another.
All in all its good.
I do think that when Solider Boy comes along we are going to get someone who will, for some reason or other, be nearly as powerful as Homelander, or else the compound V gets brought in to give the boys a fighting chance.

One thing I find is the inconsistency with powers, like nearly every superhero program!

Just finished it. Christ that was good. Some of the best TV I've watched in years.
