Just started The Boys and apparently there's some controversy 
While I think the vicious lampooning of Conservative culture has always been obvious, it's not like the show totally lets Libs off the hook.
Vought isn't just making fun of Fox News. It's also literally The Walt Disney Company, liberals' favorite multinational corporation. And this was my face when they revealed that their Alexandria Ocasio Cortez character wasn't a leftist. She's controlled opposition for the Corpo-Capitalist Elite:
I do think that The Boys is starting to overstay its welcome. But it sort of works as part of the parody. Because you know what else has absolutely overstayed its welcome: fucking Marvel.
I honestly enjoyed Gen V more than I liked the third season of The Boys. But we'll see how this newest season pans out.

Agree with all of this and while I was looking forward to this season I was a bit nervous about it being the same old stuff. I really enjoyed the first 3 episodes and I hope they can maintain it for this season and the next. It made me genuinely happy to hear the show runner or whoever confirm that the 5th season will be the last so there's hope they have a plan and it won't go stale.Just started The Boys and apparently there's some controversy

I only watched the first one but yeah I was also nervous. But by the end I was like "yeah, there's still a little more juice left to squeeze out of this concept"
"Eye for an eye's in the Jew Part of the Bible, but it's still the Bible
"I'm glad to hear they're bringing it to a close. I'd like for it to leave on a high note. IMO, The Vought Cinematic Universe>Marvel

Wow I wonder if there is still a chance they could revive it for another season then... Wonder how well it has been doing for Netflix instead of Max now
Oh yeah I've been meaning to watch this one for a while, shame it was canceled and only had one season though, as a result I procrastinated watching it even though I know I will enjoy it based on other similar style series lol good producers

Somebody will pick it up now for sure I'd assume. Show pairs perfectly with cannabis too

I'm only about halfway through, but it's surprisingly good.
Also, it looks like I'm gonna need to do a Veep re-watch soon.
One of the most GOAT'd comedies ever.

Thank you for introducing me to the Scavengers Reign series, the story is captivating, what imagination in creating the places and beings ! the scenario is full of surprises and I like the clean style of the drawing

Yes, HBO’s ‘The Penguin’ Is As Good As Reviews Say
The Penguin is far removed from anything resembling actual superheroism, a pure mob drama that deals with the aftermath of the events of Riddler flooding Gotham

Slow Horses is great. Still need to watch Season 4 and then I’ll finally watch the Penguin.

Started watching Arcane on Netflix. For a cartoon based on a video game for babies and degenerates it is shockingly good. Like HBO/prestige TV level good
Haha yeah my roommate likes it a lot, but didn't know anything about the games at all either, I could not get interested or invested though, something about it really irks me, I don't think it's just the animation style which I actually despise for some reason lol I'm sure it's good character and storytelling, I just don't think I care much for the world, characters or story they are telling?? And I appreciate the new animation style, that definitely looks like work went into it, etc... nevertheless I just don't like it myself
