The Boys is a show about superheroes.
And before you start saying, “not another superhero show/movie”, let me tell you why this is different and why you should watch this show.

The show starts out with one of our protagonists, Hughie and immediately shows us why he has a beef with one of the heroes.

The series also revolves around the definitelynotjusticeleaguebuttotallythejusticeleague team led by this universes’ Superman.
The show is an example in showing how corporate America would treat superheroes and the real world scenario if there was a team like this assembled.

The show is insanely hilaaarious as well. All pulled off by brilliant writing and brilliant acting as well.
It is quite the gory show, and if your stomach’s not up for it, you might want to skip the show.
But for those of you who seem slightly interested, definitely watch it as this is a huuuuuuuge recommendation from me.

To the producers of the show: You’re the real heroes here 🙂

Spoilers
The highlight of the show for me definitely was @toni.starr with his psychotic portrayal of Homelander. Almost every scene involving him was so unnerving. But he could steal the show by being so incredibly nice when required.
Karl Urban as this deranged person looking for answers about his wife was an instant classic for me. His one liners were absolute class.

5/5
