If you couldn't figure out the Supes, specifically Homelander, were the antagonists from the very first episode you really shouldn't be watching the show.

Yeah, you kind of have to be cognizant of the messaging within the show.

Theres a multitude of reasons 'The Boys' are trying to take down the Supes, it starts with Hughie's revenge and just spirals down the rabbit-hole from there.

It's still Laz Alonso. He lost a fair bit of weight and also looks a little different without the beard. I have to admit his appearance change is much more dramatic than Aron Moriarity's plastic surgery where you have to go back and look at old episodes to see the difference.

Episode 4 was great.

Sister Sage is such a great asset for The Seven.

Part of me hopes:

Episode 4 was amazing and I would like to forget everything about it now. So dark and depressing. The dick lasering wasn't even the 3rd most disturbing thing in the episode.

You should watch Banshee.

Banshee was great. The fight between Odette Annable and Geno Segers was epic, and Job is one of my favourite characters of all time.

I recently watched Banshee on Crave and it took me quite a while to realize where I recognized the main actor from (it's Starr playing a wildly different type of character).


EDIT: I guess we all had the same thought.

Its a favourite series of mine and I do a re-watch every few years.

And yes. Job is amazing.

I don't think I've ever had as much anxiety watching a TV show as I do whenever Homelander is in a scene. For me, he may be the most frightening character I've ever seen on TV.

Antony Starr deserves way more work.

Good for you! Chernobyl was great! Absolute masterpiece. I've said it before its probably the second best limited series of all time right behind Band of Brothers.

Yeah, I am not familiar with Antony Starr outside of The Boys and would never have recognized him.

Karl Urban is another actor who is quite a chameleon. I am more familiar with his overall body of work and he is often unrecognizable going from one role to the next.

His performance in 'Dredd' was amazing. I still love that movie.

First saw Karl Urban in Hercules/Xena, where among others, he played both Cupid and Julius Ceasar.
