I really enjoy The Boys. Seasons 1-3 were peak, and seasons 4-5 have been super fun if not a little silly at times. Gen V Season 1 was very fun too but I didn't really care much for it. I DO however have a few problems with Gen V Season 2. The fun part of watching The Boys is seeing what horrible people do with substantial power, and then watching them get brutalized. The shock factor should be "What a weird/sick/evil/cool/interesting way to use that power!" But in the recent season a lot of the shock came from just straight up weird powers. None of them were that interesting, its just "What if this taboo body part was limitless!!!!!" Its pubic hair but its ENDLESS, its someones asshole but theres a BLACK HOLE in it so its ENDLESS. Thats not really that interesting or shocking, its kinda just potty humor. I liked when it was classic superhero scenarios gone awry by incompetent heroes. What if a speedster hit someone while they were running? What if the superman type won't save the plane? Thats fun, not just What if a cat and dog hero met and smelled eachothers butts. The shock and comedy should be from how people USE these powers, not the powers themselves.
