I absolutely loved The Boys plot. It's pretty unique, and fun. With that being said, I try to limit the amount of filth I watch, and unfortunately, this show seems to add it without cause. Its gratuitous nature was quite offputting. I did appreciate the fact that they did seem to darken scenes that might come off as offensive, but why even put them in there at all? At times I felt very uncomfortable watching, to the point of just turning it off. However the plot is what kept me coming back. It's unfortunate when there's such a good plot line, and great acting, but writers still feel the need to muck it up. I've seen many TV shows rated TV-14 that were excellent. The plot and acting held up the show. Adult content doesn't equal better. Let your writing and acting speak for itself. Tone it down a little, and I think you'll broaden your audience.
