I'm still enjoying it too, and I look forward to every Thursday. That said, in a seasons ranking this one would be firmly 4th. I do like that they DGAF about satirizing the real-world political landscape, but I would disagree with blankall in it being at all subtle. Frankly, I think the satire loses a bit of edge when you're constantly hitting the viewer in the face with it. Woke, Pizzagate, Jewish Space Lasers, and so on. Wham, wham, wham. Even so, I still get a chuckle out of it every now and again.

They've definitely upped the gross-out and gore filler. I also thought the dungeon scene was excessive: all of that to find out team Homelander is acquiring internment camps and a meta-joke about Spider-Man.

Sister Sage is truly intriguing, and the A-Train redemption arc is going well so far. Hughie's entire story is still good, IMO. Butcher is still a great character and I'm invested to see how this parasite thing plays out. And Homelander still scares the #### out of me. Not really digging the Starlight/Firecracker feud, Frenchie and Kimiko, Mother's Milk stuff (still a good character, though).
