I'm glad people seem to like the new ep but again.....that shyt was uneven as hell for me.
The Lamplighter stuff was great. The Frenchie stuff added some depth to the character, and I liked how the ep jumped around in time.
I'm a sucker for anything that breaks up the traditional 60 minute format of a show. Even if it's something as simple as flashbacks.
The hospital scenes were dope. Reminded me of when all the monsters got loose in "Cabin In The Woods".
As far as stuff I didn't like....
Homelander still riding with st0rmfr0nt after her big reveal is some shaky ass writing man. Especially considering earlier in the season he didn't even want to "save the world". He wanted to "save America". So for him to throw all that out the window to start a race war with a literal Nazi....when he doesn't even give a fukk about
humans in general....let alone care enough to hate an individual race....shyt ain't adding up to me. But I'll give them time to flesh that out.
The Deep/Church shyt continues to be
for me. I dunno, I'm just not entertained by that at all. And now A-Train is roped into that subplot, too.
Oh and maybe I'm crazy but how the fukk is Hughie in the hospital (with Butcher, who checked him in) when they're both wanted fugitives whose faces were all over the news?
Again, it's possible they'll explain that next week but....not seeing how either of them made it past admissions.
