Pretty great series. The funny stuff wasn't common, but when it hit it was damn funny stuff! The super baby, the dolphin, the lobster... lol, awesome!

Finished this in under a week (which is as hard corp as I go for binge watching). I was also proud of myself for figuring out the ending, I just assumed it would be a plot point for season 2, but they wrapped it all up in 8 episodes.

More please!

Homelander could be Bradley Cooper's brother.

Really enjoyed the show. Can't wait for next season.

Loved Billy Zane at the C-list star event where they first met Mesmer. Clever show. It was very enjoyable.

I didn't realize that Hughie's girlfriend was Mary Anne from Letterkenny until I'd finished the season.

I finished it. I was marco polo'ing with a friend while I watched.. and I definitely wish I could post them.

Interested to see what they do with Black Noir. I was really expecting The Deep to Kill Himself

Totally disturbing but I am definitely in for season two.

Question for everyone
What happened with Starlight getting shot in the chest twice? Did I miss that she could heal quickly too?

For the readers who liked this show Sanderson has a short quick series call The Reckoner's that has a similar vibe. I'm only on Ep 3 of Boys so I could be wrong.

Reckoners is good but young adult oriented. This gets very much for mature audiences

Great show. Loved the story arc.

Urban was awesome but so was the rest of the cast. The twist at the end was a big deviation from the comic.

Anyone know how many issues of the comic the series covers? I'm thinking of buy the graphic novels.

Walking Dead had variation from the comics and did alright.

This show answered a big question I've had since last summer- Where is Elizabeth Shue and why isn't she in the YouTube Karate Kid series? Based on the last episode, maybe she'll finally regroup with Daniel Larusso and Johnny Lawrence next summer.

I also wonder if she had a body double for a few scenes.

He looks like Zack Morris. Not Mark-Paul Gosselaar today, but literally Zack Morris in a super hero costume.

I just read the entire series online last week for free (and hopefully legally) and it was 70 issues. It's over and done with. Fin.

Nothing majorly spoilerish below but I want to be respectful. Just pointing out series vs comic.

other than the general premise of bad supers and a group of humans to counter them, the show has pretty much gone completely off source material. The Christian Festival was way later in the series and they covered it in the first season. None of the side plots with ATrain, the Deep, Maeve, etc are In the comics.

The variation isn't done in a bad way by any means. It's still a very enjoyable series and honestly better than sticking entirely to the source material.

How they ended season 1 couldn't line up with anything they did in the comics except maybe the final 3 issues.

One thing that's funny is Hughie looks like Simon Pegg in the comics but they casted him as his dad.

This is the kind of tv I love. Non tropey roller coaster rides filled with nothing but WTF moments.

Fantastic acting all around.

This show isnt for everyone and that is what makes it so damn good. We need more of this going forward.

So I'm really disturbed by The Deep. Yeah, he's your typical frat boy jerk. But his power changes everything. He can speak to sea creatures. Like have literal full conversations with them about their thoughts and emotions. I don't think anyone would be surprised to find that whales and dolphins are somewhat intelligent and capable of some form of communication, but we're talking full-on sentience here. At it's not just them. He has full conversations with fish and lobsters. So in this universe, every sea creature is a fully sentient being. There are all of similar intelligence to humans.

Now no one knows this until The Deep can talk to them. After that, we now know the entire ocean is filled with sentient beings, and only The Deep can communicate with them. He should be the most important person on Earth. Instead, he's stuck in a motel in the Midwest, far from any ocean. And people just keep killing and eating all of these intelligent beings, blissfully pretending they don't know how evil that is.

Note Aquaman does not have this problem. He can order sea creatures around, but he doesn't actually engage them in dialogue.

I would like to engage an engineer to explain what it would take for Homelander to use the front landing gear to land the plane in the water. I know he didn't want to explain the wrecked cockpit, but if that was not the case. The plane still had forward momentum. Could he not use the forward landing gear as a structural point to aim and slow the plane down for a water landing?

Do mythbusters still take requests?

Aqua can only have conversations with dolphins all others have primitive brains. That dolphin scene was hilarious by The Deep

So was the lobster scene (though I saw that ending coming).

Finished last night and as a whole the show was really good, always interesting when they make a show with almost entirely unlikeable characters work. It's definitely an anti-Marvel take that works well after the build up to Endgame.

And a bit of insider info from a friend, they were already well into working on S2 before they announced it had been greenlit. Interesting that they were that confident.
