[@DanielMusicFeed]

The reason Butcher seems to be just fine when he walks in the room and kills Neuman is this: When Butcher doesn't do what Kessler (his dark side) wants him to do, he makes his condition way worse. That's why Butcher fainted in ep. 7 when he told Kessler to f*ck off and walked away from the bar. Since then Butcher was trying his best to not listen to anything Kessler told him and he kept his faith in Ryan. But when Butcher saw Grace die by Ryan's hands just in front of him, it destroyed all his hope and he gave in to Kessler's evil plan to kill all supes. Butcher is now in something like a symbiosis with Kessler and as long as it stays that way, I believe Butcher is not gonna die as soon as he might.

Hughie gained teleportation because of Robin getting "flashed" out of existence. Hugh Sr. faded constantly in and out because his wife faded out of his life. So, yeah, Ashley losing her hair because of the constant stress she's enduring at Vought? Very likely she's getting hair-related powers.

The write-off joke is directed at Zaslav, CEO and president of Warner Bros. Discovery, for doing exactly that. He also increased his salary by millions while laying off thousands of people.

[@Ductos]

He started with the Batgirl movie, which was pretty much finished. The directors, who were at a wedding at the time, only learned of this from the internet. Then continued with a Scooby Doo animated movie, which got cancelled, before they could record the soundtrack. Something they still did, despite the cancellation, since they booked their venue already [Side note: Imagine recording music for a movie you know will never see the light of day]. "Coyote vs. Acme", another finished project was shopped around, but ultimately canned for another write-off. Other studios would go on to follow his example, to devastating effects.

[@aaronbeatdown]

@@Ductos The thing with Coyote Vs. ACME is that it is reportedly a very good movie, too. Like with Batgirl I can at least understand the logic of not sinking money into promotion of a trainwreck of a movie. The Looney Tunes movie could have actually done really well for them.

[@Darknamja]

@@aaronbeatdown "Like with Batgirl I can at least understand the logic of not sinking money into promotion of a trainwreck of a movie." Yeah, who wants to see a Latina Batgirl? 🤨

[@aaronbeatdown]

@@Darknamja Don't know what that has to do with what I said. Batgirl was already 20 million over budget, test screenings were supposedly widely panned, and would need an unknown amount of money to fix the movie. Add on to that the money that would then be needed to promote the movie, and I can understand the logic of thinking "maybe it's better if we cut our losses on this one" vs. the Coyote vs. ACME project that was completed and had really good buzz about it. Didn't say I agree or disagree with the decision, just that one makes more sense than the other.

[@theaikidoka]

@@Darknamja Yeah, don't make this a racial thing. I'd LOVE to see more women as action leads, but what I DON'T want is to see women in bad movies, because then people blame the women not the movies. Batgirl was going to be bad.

Starlight hasnt always been able to fly "like that". Earlier in the season she can barely stay balanced a few feet off the ground and Hughie is helping her train.

[@Zibi21]

Maybe the trainining helped her level up and now she doesnt need electricity around to make her powers work, maybe she can drain power from the sun like supermen. Since they were in plain field and her power worked.

[@betteryourlife865]

@@Zibi21I sure hope she can get powered up by the sun. I think she has way more potential for power than we know. She seemed to always get power from lights but the sun is like unlimited power. We saw a major power up with how fast she flew away. Think she will be way more powerful in the next season and I hope she fucks some shit up!

[@BuddyBoy-ne1nw]

Perhaps the last shackle that was limiting her full potential was herself. Being unable to face her past demons, her regrets, and trying to bury the past without coming to terms with it. Fighting that shapeshifter was a big character developnent moment to confront herself. It allowed her to break through the last psychological barrier that was holding her back.

[@ranniwolves]

it seems like they didn’t internalize a lot of the information this season

[@TheGrimHHH]

Think of Kessler like the personality of the tumor growing inside Butcher's brain. When Butcher isn't doing what Kessler wants, he starts killing Butcher slowly like a cancer, but once Butcher follows his advice, he can instantly heal Butcher. Also, as we've seen previously, Kessler is like a split personality. He can quite literally take over Butcher, which is pretty much what happens, indicated by him looking at the mirror in the end and seeing Kessler in his stead.

[@degov5]

I don't think Butcher on his death bed was an act for Ryan. I feel like Butcher was 100% ready to die and leave his hopes of stopping Homelander with Ryan. But Mallory dropped too much too fast, and with Ryan killing her, Butcher lost that hope.

[@DaveyPB]

No she hasn’t always been able to fly like that…. We saw in earlier episodes that she had figured out how to hover, and kinda fly for a short distance in an uncoordinated way, but flying off like Neo at that speed was new …. and not to mention that in every previous instance of her hovering/flying she had to draw power from surrounding electricity sources in order to do it - but in the final scene they are out in the middle of nowhere so it’s not clear where she is getting power from. Maybe her powers came back with new capabilities? I guess we will have to see if they explain that in S5.

I was kind of surprised that Butcher spared Zoe's life and made no move to hurt Annie or Kimiko. Maybe he isn't as far gone as his evil split personality wants him to be. I wonder if his Becca personality will make an appearance next season, to pull him back from going completely genocidal.

[@azazello1784]

Let's be honest; Becca sucks. We need Butcher to wreak havoc.

[@kc1john]

She hasn’t appeared since his suped up Kessler cancer thing told her to shut her cakehole. He still plans on genocide since that was the “bargain”. The evil side of him has complete control at this point.

[@JoseLopez-rx7iw]

I think it has to do with the fact that they weren’t an immediate threat and even Kessler took over, he is still a part of Butcher who has all his memories and thus has a tiny bit of sympathy for those he previously worked with. I wouldn’t be surprised about Zoe either since he knew about her friendship with Ryan when he met with him back in episode 1.

Grace's death is going to haunt poor Ryan. But it was definitely wrong of her to dump all that awful crap on him all at once and then following it up with threatening to imprison him with the intention of turning him into a weapon.

If you watch his face while he's laying there you can tell he purposely is doing it. He also tells him a few times that he can help him etc. meaning help him feel better. Once Butcher agrees (head nod) to take JDM offer when he's over Grace, that's when JDM heals him so he's strong enough to fight back.

Sam is way too handsome to be doing this martial law evil supe stuff.

It’s hard to believe they went from hated each other to team up

@@dylanstankewicz850 The fuck has that got to do with his behaviour?

[@patrickwitek]

Ngl, Annie really annoyed me with the whole getting pissed off at Hughie

[@theaikidoka]

Well, I see two sides. 1) They know a shapeshifter exists and Annie isn't acting totally normally. 2) People act differently all the time, especially when they are stressed or want to cover up the fact that they are stressed. Hughie might well have accepted Annie changing a bit because he wants it to be a real change. People do that all the time too.

[@patrickwitek]

@@theaikidoka The first point isn't valid though cause even if they know a shapeshifter exists they have no clue about the extent of its abilities. How were they supposed to know it can take over the memories of its victims? Let's be real, without the audience being shown what happened, the shifter could become Annie at the start of the season and no one would have even suspected a thing. The fact Hughie realized so quickly is already incredibly impressive. Also even if they know about a shapeshifter, are they now supposed to not trust literally anyone, including the core members and arguably strongest member of the team barring maybe Kimiko? At that point they wouldn't even be able to function. She is just victim blaming and I'm certain that if genders were reversed there would be no discussion. Add to that your second point with the stress etc. and there is essentially no way for someone to discover the truth, literally Batman/Sherlock Holmes level of detective work needs to be done to realize she's not the real Annie. Thing is, I don't care about her grieving over this cause obviously she was also the victim in all this but I hate her for pinning it on Hughie and forcing him to apologize, essentially beg for forgiveness for getting SA'ed.

[@theaikidoka]

@@patrickwitek Shapeshifters are SO powerful as a narrative device. You HAVE to specify what sort of power set they have, or basically any story you tell will have a ton of loopholes. As you say, paranoia would destroy the team as effectively as physical violence - the movie 'The Thing' is a perfect example of this. I don't know if I agree that Annie is forcing Hughie to apologise, but she is not being as understanding as she could be, especially as she knows very well that the shifter has access to her memories and would therefore be able to answer any questions etc normally used to identify a fake. Realistically Hughie thought the shifter WAS Annie, he didn't cheat on her.

[@Tomshelton25]

I'm glad they released the uncut version on that last mothers milk scene.

[@Ductos]

"Oh, she flies now!" "She flies now?" "She flies now!" 🤣

[@adamarigi]

20:08 Octopus can actually hold their breath for couple minutes as long as they get prepared before being out the water. When The Deep crushed the aquarium, she wasn't prepared for that.

[@peaceisnature]

I only just realised by watching you guys watch this that Butcher covered up Newman's eyes with a tentacle before she had a chance to react! Clever.

[@D4rYan]

The way steven explains😂🖤 thats so nice

[@_showvoid_2428]

I’m so glad they played Heart shaped box for the season finale love that song.

[@judofry]

Oh god, I hadn’t thought about the whole meeting and Mallory dying could be a hallucination from the super cancer

[@p.a.681]

I think that's a reach, tbh. There's no reason for it to be a hallucination.

[@kaze.14]

So Ryan wasn't real too. Maybe everything's butcher's imagination right? Tell me I'm not reaching guys

[@mannyventura7293]

So I found it weird that the next time we see Ryan after homelander finds the picture was with Mallory at a underground government facility, and I didn't consider being a hallucination prior to reading this comment so you might be on to something low-key

[@RachaelTheFirboldDruid]

Annie getting mad at Hughie made me very upset.

[@misshell]

What a finale!!! Can't wait for next season!

[@umainebearman]

Kate said "Get in the van" to Frenchie.

[@caseyh8386]

(this is my theory) The reason Butcher looks fine is because the tumour is a super tumour created by temp V and is basically sentient. Now that Butcher is pretty much gone, given up and giving control to the tumour, the tumour is keeping him alive instead of killing him

[@candibrackett8473]

Fun fact. The creators of this show is also Supernatural. The shape shifters in both shows tore their skins off. They also use the same actors between both shows, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Jensen Ackles etc. Supernatural was on for 15 years and there is a reason for that. I know its allot of seasons but Its worth it!

[@BarrettSendrowski]

Final 10 minutes or so, straight chills.

[@aworkinprogress4387]

That season finale was incredible. Totally turned the season around in my estimation. I would say it was the best finale they've had yet.

[@lkf8799]

I was so excited to see Nikki's reaction to Love Sausage's return 😂😂😂 Can't wait to see what powers Ashley gets. Loved Erin's evil Starlight acting. So good 😈

[@geraldtodd6633]

Nicki and Steven, good reactions thru all 8 episodes. If they start filming season 5 in November that probably means we MIGHT see it next winter. I hope they do it quicker since in October I celebrate my 79th birthday and who knows if I'll be around for season 5. But, my health is good and I plan on being here. Once again, good job kids.

[@milkachugina]

Good point, Steven on Shapeshifter ability, like Polyjuice potion, need to be drank or recharge❤

Just realizing MM is wearing a Dead Pres t shirt as they’re literally trying to save president Singer from assassination lol.

[@rossikc]

Sam holding back Kimiko like it was nothing was insane

[@kallumwilliamson4001]

Erin absolutely killed that scene

[@alasaina]

it seems that some people clearly dont pay attention. episode one: they showed annie had trained enough during the time skip to fly up to the highest floor to try and catch frenchie and kimiko. later the episode they showed annie training balance with her flight clearly indicating that she has been practicing. episode four: annie flew to firecracker with ease clearly indicating that she now knows how to fly. for the people saying its " plot armor " its quite literally not.

[@BlackFlightNY]

Love Sausage has been trolling MM for no reason ever since season 2😂🤣

[@Andre_APM]

35:40 "She flies now?" "She flies now!" lmao unintentional star wars moment

[@BuckyBarnesNC]

I’m so sad we have to wait 2 yrs for this to come back. I did read the comics so I know what may happen. They have changed some stuff but kept some the same. I suggest buying The Boys hardback comic book, it’s so good. BTW Nikki and Steve love the SOA stuff. I’m a retired 39 yr old Army injured Iraq vet. I’m a part of the Patriot motorcycle Guard and my pops use to be an ex Hells 😐 yeah no joke in Albuquerque and Cleveland, Ohio. Yet I still love that motorcycle life. I grew up in Albuquerque yet my pops and mom moved to Cleveland while I was serving. But yeahhh 😂 Anyways the wifey and I enjoy your reactions. We watch to relax and all that. Be good you both.

[@MFBloosh]

I'm sure we'll get Gen V season 2 sometime in the next year, probably spring 2025. They started filming at the beginning of May this year.

I hope Annie somehow knows where Maeve is and she could hide out with her for a while

I think butchers parasite was killing him if he didn’t comply. It makes sense butcher looks so much better once he gave into the parasite.

When butcher was on the phone with Hughie I thought homelander was standing in front of him ready to laser

On the previous episode, The Deep says Ambrosia can’t stay out long while putting her back in the tank.

[@cloudy_zo6]

For the octopus surviving on the bed, it’s because she was in his gills taking oxygen from there

[@cloudy_zo6]

On top of octopuses need to kind of like hold your breath and they last a lot longer. Just like if I held my breath I could hold it for a few minutes but if I just jumped I’d drown in less than 30 seconds

[@a.a677]

The write off joke is about the Batgirl movie being written off even though it was completely finished

[@Thriscucker]

1. Octopus can actually survive a bit out of water 2. They did the octopus death a bit satirical by making her scream bloody murder the second the tank broke😂 but with the cuts implied it was actually taking a while
