[@Jakkob37]

Have you seen him in banshee?

[@jcarbajal7348]

Oh boy. You two are in for a ride. This show just keeps getting better and better. I was like Spartan. Huge DC superhero fan that grew up loyal to the tradition that Superheroes stand for good and should not be tainted by depictions like this. However i opened my mind. This has to be in the top 3 well written and depicted shows for pure entertainment of the last few decades. Nothing held back on this show and every episode out does itself. I sub'd to watch you go through this wild journey. Thanks for sharing your reactions with us!

[@SpartanandPudgey]

Awesome to hear your feedback! thanks for your support 😊🙏🏼

[@Serryy]

Not being able to recognize a celebrity because they don't have make-up or have a different hairstyle, etc. is a real thing in our world. You wouldn't expect the girl with the ponytail next to you on the park bench to be a celebrity either.

[@halgari]

KZbin randomly recommended me this channel since I've been bingewatching The Boys reactions. What a fantastic reaction, love your reaction to this episode, liked subbed and "clicked the bell". Each season cranks the previous up to 11. It's just fantastic all around.

[@SpartanandPudgey]

Welcome to the community! we are glad to have you with us 😃🙏🏼

[@mynameisnoonesbusiness4488]

@halgari, These two are wonderful.

[@viziontrex]

Excited for this series! Lots of parody, social commentary and cynical storytelling. Seriously a great superhero series

[@KurNorock]

If by "social commentary" you mean "blatant anti-right-wing demonization propaganda" then yeah, sure.

[@Glossyqeen]

I love reactors who are natural and dont try to force expressions. great video!

[@godmagnus]

lol, I love that you told Deep to shut up about swallowing after you also mentioned swallowing.

[@jek4837]

I just stumbled across this reaction today. This first episode set the bar really high for the series, but they have maintained that level the entire way through so far. There's not another show like this out there. And while there are going to be plenty of times when your left sitting there with your mouth wide open or dying laughing at something that's really off-color or "inappropriate", it never feels like the writers are just doing things for shock value. It's just what the show is.

[@basilisk..]

Well GoT is like this, and Invincible too...kinda

[@blackpaw29]

Not super hero related, but "The Expanse" is a SciFi ground breaker and like The Boys, every episode just get better and better. Ensemble cast with great political plots, character development and realistic physics.

[@chloec4009]

And this episode barely even has the main attraction: Homelander.

[@babette5918]

Wow... doing "The Boys"? This should be interesting. I'm sure that Pudgey is going to like it, but I'm interested to see what Spartan thinks.

[@guts1258]

This is the best series on television right now. Glad you get to experience it for the first time.

[@stormkratt]

"You're really don't know who's gonna be safe in this show." Well.. You're damn right, Spartan.

[@starbrand3726]

I love this series because it's a more realistic depiction of a world with super beings. And it is DEFINITELY not for the timid.

[@Atrydka]

If you like different takes on the hero's journey trope, Dune is a deconstruction of it and few other tropes, like the Chosen One and the "white saviour" ones. It'll be more obvious when the second part of the movie comes out (and then Dune Messiah) but there're some clues in the first part already.

[@kentkatchem]

OMG, if the two of you decide to watch all these ( I PRAY YOU WILL!) I will be watching along too.. I love your guys reaction!

[@FlabbyButter]

It’s crazy how much you two have changed since these videos. You’re so much more comfortable on camera than you use to be.

[@brianegendorf2023]

You will NEVER know just how far this show is willing to go. Every time you think you know how weird, bizarre or effed up it is, it always finds a way to go deeper into the barrel.

[@LMarti13]

"it wasn't a malicious thing" lol sure thing my sweet summer child

[@abhinavhazarika1688]

You are not ready for this show...even the people who read the comics were not ready for this show.

[@franzliszt8957]

People who read the comics were more than ready for the show. The show looks like a children's show compared to the comics.

[@_ripVanWinkle_]

@@franzliszt8957 the show is written and better executed than the comics tho

[@mudrsa]

@@franzliszt8957 After season 2, I don't agree with you mate

[@mirage1049]

​@@mudrsa idk.... just finished reading the comics and it's way darker than the show...with worse writing too

[@mudrsa]

@@mirage1049 I mean they can't show everything that in the comics. For a tv-show, it's pretty good adaption for my opinion.

[@rexracer3221]

The Boys has NO limits... No floor and no ceiling on where it takes you.

[@_ripVanWinkle_]

I don't know how but .... It gets crazier from here

[@KrillixKai]

I'm more excited about this than marvel reactions of late. Thank you guys for entertaining me today!

[@charmedoriginal5923]

One episode down. Twenty-Three episodes to go. Great first reaction, Spartan & Pudgey. The Boys is based on the 72 issue comic of the same name. Hugh "Hughie" Campbell is played by Jack Quaid, Dennis Quaid and Meg Ryan's son.

[@SpartanandPudgey]

Let's go!

[@juans7085]

I don’t watch tv shows that often but this one is a spectacle. Please do more!!! Love your guys insight

[@BryceLK]

This is a crazy ride and I'll be here for all of it. In a similar vein that you might be interested in would be "Invincible." It's animated and streams on Prime Video, but I'd heard only amazing things about it and basically every reaction channel that I've ever watched has reacted to it but I never paid it any attention, but I added it to my watchlist. I finally checked it out a month or so back and after the first episode I understood why it was so popular and I watched the entire season that weekend. It might be another to write down somewhere if this show is something that you really enjoy. It's just another twist on the superhero gimmick that's not held back by specific ratings or audiences and it constantly asks, basically, "you think you've seen it all, huh?" For now, though, I'm always excited to see someone watch The Boys for the first time. This shit is bonkers.

[@SpartanandPudgey]

we have already seen invincible but will probably cover S2 on the channel! we are excited for this as well, glad to have you join us 😊

[@blackpaw29]

Great reaction! and new subscriber, really liked watching you guys, good commentary without being intrusive, appreciate that you pause to talk, and your facial reactions are classic :) Only just started watching the series myself, so along for the ride.

[@blinkachu5275]

Hoooo boy, you're in for a wild ride. It's amazingly acted, well written with deep interesting characters and the gruesomeness factor is uhh... well... not as hard as the comics but for live-action television still preeetty... gruesome xD Definitely love this show tho, hope you will too!

[@hariskolar579]

[@Xijvn]

Wasn’t expecting this masterpiece

[@paulcurlin2789]

I'm glad you brought up the word "corrupt". That old saying "Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely" really applies here :-)

Love this series! So glad you guys are getting into it!

[@carriesmith742]

5:56 Pudgey looked absolutely MESMERIZED by A-Train running through Robin, lol. I'm doing a quick re-watch of your reactions before season 4 comes out. LOVED your Gen V reactions as well. You guys are some of the first reactors I ever subscribed to on YT and ONLY people I subscribe to on Patreon. LOVE you guys! ❤

[@sorabove]

LOOOOL within the first minute of your intro I was like: "You sweet summer child" It only gets better/worse

[@jevilz9858]

The look on their faces when homie laser the plane haha

[@kevincarvalho5054]

As crazy as this is, it's like a gentle introduction to the crazyness that is The Boys.

[@jdgordon1234]

By far the wildest thing about this show is that it never slows down even in the current episodes.

[@KurNorock]

You would never expect to see a super hero in person. They are incredibly rare. And if you did, you would expect to see them in their costume, flying around or whatever. So seeing one in normal clothes, sitting on a park bench, you would never think they were a super hero. You wouldn't recognize them.

[@allannyholmnielsen5559]

You are in for a treat with The Boys. That's for sure. Great reaction video. Must be good knowing you have 2 people from New Zealand on the cast too.

[@SpartanandPudgey]

[@SpartanandPudgey]

Thanks! welcome to the community 😃🙏🏼

[@nomadpurple6154]

Another new subscriber because I found your reaction style to The Boys to be up there with the best (give it some time, you have definite No.1 potential) I like that you stop to discuss instead of reacting over the next scene - it's so storyline dense with lovely detail, you would miss important parts. Pudgey is clearly going to love it, I worry for Spartan's sanity 😝 As someone who is eagerly waiting for the last episode of season3, I absolutely up for following your journey and remembering my own feelings when I watched it first time. Try your best to avoid spoilers (avoid teasers and trailers for seasons 2&3 since you can go straight to the episodes and be suprised/shocked/disgusted. And when you are finished I recommend the Bonus Xtras, the Vought International YT channel & Twitter and The Boys twitter - But only after you catch up!!!

[@SpartanandPudgey]

[@geraldtodd6633]

All right, new The Boys reactors. I just finished season 3 yesterday and since season 4 will probably be 1 1/2 years from now I figured I will join you two and the other viewers and watch your journey unfold. I subscribed and am ready to go. If you haven't seen it yet, another really good series to watch is Stranger Things. It just finished it's 4th season with each season being similar to The Boys, 8 or 9 episodes long. I'm now looking forward to episode 2.

[@SpartanandPudgey]

excited to have you join us! let's go 🥳

[@gregpeacock5497]

Great reaction guys!! I've watched the 1st few episodes of thos series, so I will probably watch the episodes just before your reactions. The fake FBI guy is played by New Zealand actor Karl Urban, who also played Dredd and Dr McCoy in the latest Star Trek movies. Now I know you have Amazon Prime ;-) You know, the streaming service that has that other series I like ;-) lmao

[@xXSinForLifeXx]

Loved Pudgeys reaction to this episode man the show is going to be a wild ride for them.

[@tomgrant29]

This show is absolutely bonkers and my favourite show of any genre since Black Mirror. It's really well written and well acted, funny as hell and super graphic while never getting stupid. And like you said "That's only 1 episode?" it just stays like that, starts at 100mph and never slows down. So much fun

[@rockoperajon]

If anything, it only gets crazier, especially in season 3.

[@HachimaruuTV]

This show being mature does wonders for it. They are able to push the boundaries and tell the story they want in full. A lot of shows and series are held back by censorship. One of those shows, from your shirt, is My Hero. MHA is VERY bloody in the manga, but the anime shows little to no blood, which sometimes takes away from the authors true vision.

[@Beanbag109]

Buckle up! Get ready for an amazing ride!
