The Boys is one of my favorite shows of all time. Obviously Gen V isn't as good, but it's still awesome. They do a great job of getting us attached to the new characters in this new environment. And as one would expect from a show in this world, it never holds back. There are several jaw-dropping moments and ridiculously memorable laughs.

I can only think of a couple flaws. In The Boys, the gender identity and sexual orientation stuff was part of the satire. Like how corporations use it to improve their public perception (#BraveMaeve). In Gen V, it felt more like they were trying to convince me of something. And while the finale was fun and pretty awesome, some of the character motivations felt a bit random or unearned.

Even with those flaws, I had a great time with this show and I'll definitely be watching season 2. (2 viewings, 11/2/2023, 11/10/2023)
