"Gen V" | Prime Video | Sept 29th 2023 | spinoff series of "The Boys"

[Primetime]

Fire last 2 episodes. The series wasn't perfect but I liked it and the characters.

It actually perfectly captures the fear and resulting paranoia humans would have if superhumans mutants actually existed. It's the X-Men done right, but with an innovative and modern take with real world politics and how society consumes media.

Combined with the main series, id say the Boys/Gen V provides a brutally honest take on both the Avengers/JLA (i.e. the Seven) and the X-Men. The former is just as much a threat to humans but they have the billions of corporate marketing to paint a different image/cover their fukkups. The latter is the rest of the super-powered population, institutionalized, feared, and experimented on... but also with tangible reasons to be feared bc they can legit fukk ppl up by the mere flick of their finger or a moment of absentmindedness.

I don’t get the hate for this show, it ain’t fukking with the boys but it’s enjoyable

Finale was fire as fukk. Got me excited for next season and The Boys S4. Homelander's distorted superhero theme in his entrance was a nice touch, and Butcher finds out about The Woods. Sam and Emma's scene in the theater was dope, from Sam's perspective you kinda understand where he's coming from. It'll be interesting to see where the crew goes from here now that sides have clearly been drawn. Marie still looking fine as fukk.

Homelanders face when he saw Marie killing supes:

This show was really good. But there were moments of janky writing.

Why is Andre suddenly struggling with his powers now if it took his father years to show symptoms?

What happened to the kid in the bathrobe? Did everyone forget he died? Lol

Last 2 ep were good rest was meh

 

[bear27]

Show was cool

But if you don't say when the big homie showed up it didn't step the viewing up you lying
Plus the mid credits scene dude showing out


Right now the gen v characters are building but meh Compared to the main show

Doubt that changes

One tree hill with some mad violence and mad won't catch the main

But nice little filler show

I didn’t like they wasted an episode on that news guy who ended up being a crazy dude who jerked off all the time…

Marie a head popper too she was supposed to be in the 7 but homelander showed up and fukked her over

Dope finale. Marie is looking OP af. I don’t think Neumann’s tried popping a supe. Marie gave one a heart attack, outchea blood bending and she blew off Cate’s arm

She was never gonna be in the 7. Homelander’s meter is already maxed out with just A Train. shyt he probably killed Black Noir because he has black in his name.

 

[Paper Boi]

finale was dope 7.75/10 lil show

 

[Marks]

It started off a little wobbly but they nailed the ending.

 

[Avisible Man]

man is an A- student and Ashley saying he stupid


im also an A- student

Hopefully your skin color doesn't test a little too dark for TV like his.

st0rmfr0nt was the one, not Homelander. He was reluctant to move against Edgar cuz of his intelligence. He was disappointed with A Train for wasting his abilities and respected Black Noir above all others in The 7 cuz he was out there putting work in. Completely committed and dedicated.

Now, he wasn't about having a Muslim in The 7. Ain't no way he was gonna have "Captain Al Qaeda" on the team. But that was anti-terrorist sentiment, which is typical in this country. He's a proud American who thinks Supes are superior.

 

[Mr Hate Coffee]

7 episodes in and I'm still not sure if this show is actually good

Let me help you out… It’s good.
