On the Starlight front, her being hostile to Butcher makes sense, she’s never liked Butcher, throughout all the seasons she’s been pretty hostile to him in general, idk why that would change

[@arj851]

Wasn't Butcher also hostile towards Starlight at first?

[@shippendales8543]

​@@arj851yes Butcher was very hostile towards her first They have never formed a personal relationship Their only connection is through Hughie

[@Karlach_]

If anyone remembers, Butcher actually shot Annie with a high power rifle once knocking her on the ground in pain and yelling at Hughie to run. I doubt Annie has ever forgotten or forgiven Butcher doing that to her.

He's coming back in season 5 I can almost guarantee it

You've given me an idea for a crossover...

[@BitingComics]

The comic never took Homelander seriously as a threat. The success of the series is that it really does.

[@BussinandDiscussin]

Homelander is one of the top 5 best characters in fiction for me because he is amongst the best villains AND horror movie characters put into one.

The Boys approach is why Marvel is probably giving Daredevil the TV-MA/R green light...They fell behind in unhinged Super Hero content because of Disney's coddling to their " safe brand " but Deadpool and Wolverine is probably gonna change all of that moving forward.

[@user-rv9hp6bo3y]

Imho the boys isn't good because of it's graphic content, it's good because it's a fantastically well written and produced show with brilliant and often genius social commentary. I actually wish they toned down more of the graphic stuff, some of it actually puts me off watching the show, but the show is so good I keep coming back. I don't think Marvel Studios has made a TV show close to as good as the boys yet but I don't think it's tondo with lack of seggs and violence I think they just don't have as great a team as the team that produces the boys.

[@BussinandDiscussin]

do you have any thought on how it will affect China viewership's, because it banned marvel movie for years for political reason , it just recently let american movie back inside.

Love to hate lol. He and Butcher are 95% of the reason i watch (the other five percent is my crush on Kimiko)

thats a good thing though that means he is a good villain

[@Pancakelover969]

I view him the same way as Ramsey or Joffrey from game of thrones great performance, clearly fucked in the head, root for his downfall but love to watch him on screen with a fine line between terrifying and captivating

[@redlightmax]

@@Pancakelover969 "... with a fine line between terrifying and captivating" Yep, I view Homelander the same way as Hannibal Lector - both are polite, but also happy to kill you on a whim.

[@theunwantedcritic]

The writer for the boys comic book absolutely hates superheroes.

[@tenerife_sea]

Just saying.. that I was right about watching GenV is not necessary to get season 4. I knew as soon as I binged that show it was gonna be The Agents of Shield to the MCU. Unreciprocated love.

[@tattltal]

I may come back to this comment depending on how the season goes. There’s still time to tie in Gen V to this season of the Boys

[@kasim7509]

You comparing it to Cold War really interests me because that's the current landscape as well Just like Homelander being SO powerful, we have so many countries that have the most powerful weapon on earth, nukes, at their disposal but they never use them but the threat looms large at all times

[@ithanvega]

Grace, where did you find out the approximate budget of the show? Just in case, I’m not questioning you, I’ve just tried looking into it before and could never find any sources online on how much the budget for it is each season.

[@Igivegdparent]

maybe she got it from the actors who she interviewed? like off screen or something

[@greygorygaming]

I think three seasons deep, at this point people will cope and ignore the fact it's making fun of MAGA just so they can continue enjoying the show. They're too invested. If anything they will tell themselves that the show is unintentionally supporting their cause. I also find it tiresome that Hollywood keeps picking on only one side of the political spectrum, but that is why I think even MAGA supporters will want to just totally let this controversy go. In their mind they can't afford to lose another show.

[@insanittiez4860]

I don’t think it’s cope. I think the issue is that MAGA people only see the MAGA fun and not the other side. They somehow don’t think about any of the liberal jabs. Not saying it’s equally split but you still have a lot of it.

[@redlightmax]

​@@insanittiez4860 "I think the issue is that MAGA people only see the MAGA fun and not the other side." I agree, this is another case of Hanlon's razor: "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity."

It is supporting it because everyone likes it. Know one is watching this show for Starlight and if they took the MAGA out, nooone would watch this show.

[@matthewlafleur3791]

I agree with you but I think it takes jabs at both sides just more to maga

[@Sanj1n]

I’m curious Grace, will you be watching the episodes a second time for your review each week?

[@laverdadescatolica5]

Amazon has the BEST approach. Instead of releasing the WHOLE THING, like NETFLIX, or just weekly like cable used to BACK IN THE DAY, they release 3 of the 8 at ONCE … THEN, the rest overtime.

[@50pence59]

I liked What If releasing one a day. ✊

[@shubhangbahadur7112]

Even though it is a 3 episode drop, I think it would be really cool if you still break down each of these episodes in a separate video Grace. There is so much to savour upon!

[@randomguy2402]

I hope Soldier Boy appears

[@TrixieMatteI]

He probably does since Homelander has a target on his head this season and they need a new villain.

[@SIMON_SAYS_SO]

You can mean it as an insult or mockery but, bless their heart, they will think it's a compliment and praise. Ignorance knows no bounds.

SHOCKED that the acolyte costed that much. Almost 200 million on tv show? Game of Thrones looked better and costed 1/4 of that. Disney+ will be the eventual death of the Disney Empire.

[@matiasdevaglia4541]

Game of Thrones costed 50 millions in 2011, in it's first season. Every new season had a budget increase, with season 8 costing about 90 millions. House of the Dragon, on the other hand, costed about 200 millions and looks cheaper than the last seasons of Game of Thrones.

[@tomwood555]

Huge shout out to the whole show for being so good and dialled in that they can turn out these seasons in impressive time without losing the quality, this is a problem that allot of film and TV suffer from in that they take such a long time to make another season that by the time it comes around people have moved on

[@anthonyparkinson4517]

2 years between seasons is "impressive"?!?!?? They've NEVER been quick to get the next one out.

[@andys8483]

Looking forward to this... may have to do a little recap on seas 3 before diving into seas 4 as it seems such a long time ago. Also considering Gen V at some point... when i can find the time. I have read all the graphic novels twice over. The original release of The Boys seas 1 got me into purchasing the books. Also, i liked Anthony Starr from when he was on Banshee

[@user-jh4fk8hu3h]

Colbert never startled the political divide. You're completely wrong on that. He was always on the left. The difference now, sadly, is that Colbert is more of a Democratic Party spokesman , not someone who speaks truth to power from a leftist point of view.

[@fartbrotherY2K]

How did people NOT KNOW that the far right were being depicted in this show?? Kripke could just be using the current political situation as a "trending" mechanism, to boost the Boys popularity before release. It has been some time since the last season, especially with Gen V in between.

[@arj851]

I’ve read comments from far-right people thinking that The Boys was mocking the leftists overall…
