The Boys: Gen V
 

Looks like just renewed for season 2.

Honestly, I'm enjoying the hell out of this first season. It's of the same or better quality as The Boys itself and uses the universe to its advantage without making it a detriment.

Just finished all 8 eps in a row.

I honestly thought Homelander killed the main black girl in the last episode. I was shocked but in the end we find out she and the others are still alive. Imagine if they had killed off the lead like that.

Disappointing ending, really. I knew probably Homelander would show up... but I thought he'd at least do something substantial. Just a great big cliffhanger/stay tuned.

Season 2 is out, already 4 episodes in. Not bad. Several laugh out loud moments already, for sure. This seems a bit more organic to The Boys than the first season.

It's still pretty stupid they killed off that character between seasons just because the actor died. Another case of just "throw the character into the casket with the actor" as always, as if that's honoring their memory by deleting their character. The character could have gone on to much bigger and better things but now he's just a footnote in season 1 of a spinoff... and we're to believe that's what the actor would have wanted? This is always infuriating.

Cancelled.

I get it. Season 5 of "The Boys" should wrap all of the current storylines up (within the current day storylines). So what would be left to tell?

Still, I very much enjoyed the ride that was Gen V.

Not sure if they have a multi-year plan for Vought Rising or if that will be a one season shot. I'm always cautious of prequels, has there ever been a good one?
(outside of the last seasons of Star Trek Enterprise).

Better Call Saul was an amazing prequel. Maybe even better than Breaking Bad.
