Antony starr deserves an emmy for his performance as Homelander. He was just incredible
His performance is so real!
Too real...
This will end poorly....
Black Noir actor more underrated tbh
nah he's just being himself lol
Wtf are these bots
Bots going crazy today
the way that Black Noir started talking to his cartoony imagination revealing his fears and motives was in my opinion incredibly creative to show his past and how he still has an imagination and personality in spite lacking his speech which was some incredible character development and it also made empathy towards the character so much more real which is often slept on.
Reminded me of the show Happy, which is similarly over the top violent and features imaginary animated animal characters!
And then they killed him off right before he had some potential. Kinda wasted
@@BigBootyBatman or did they? >_>
@@AfferbeckBeats *happy tree friends
@@CBG345 even if, a whole season for nothing to happen with him? Same with A-Train or Deep. It's all running in place. No progress.
Props to Jensen Ackles for getting into Soldier Boy's role smoothly.
To be fair, grizzled guy that acts like a dick is kinda his tenure from Supernatural. Just that Soldier Boy is ten times worse than Dean, even when he was a demon that one time.
I just watched episode 6 and it was fucking awesome
@@Icharus_Labs best episode of the season imo
He really did well in this role. Absolutely killed it. Sadly I can't say the same about Sam from supernatural he was really underwhelming in his new show.
You just needed to ask him about Gay Ships in Supernatural and he instantly switched to that lmao
God the end with Ryan smiling…. It made me feel like even tho they “won” they lost wayyyyyy worse than any of them realize
None of them won and they know it. They didnt kill Homelander, they didnt get rid off Soldier Boy and Ryan turned to the dark side.
he reminded me of Damien in The Omen
@@SpecialInMyOwnWay it pissed me off that the show pretended like they did the right thing.
They GOT EVERYONE OUT OF THE TOWER lol. They could have ended it right there, and the only people who would have died would have been them.
AND huey could have teleported in and saved Ryan, and the boys, homelander, and solider boy would be the only ones dead.
@Jonathan Jones LMFAO he said so IN AN INTERVIEW. Kripke said so himself. And it's blatant in the writing. If you didn't get that part, you were not paying attention or have VERY poor comprehension skills. He said straight up that he wanted to reward Maeve with a happy ending for "doing the right thing" in the end. Lol. So?? That it's a QUOTE "moral universe".
He's notorious for doing this in his writing. He did it in supernatural.
Dear God. What a pretentious douchebag. Do you even know what the word insecure means? You are painfully slow.
@@ImTheMan0fSteel And Hughie... He would have been dead too. He didn't have powers at the time and the only way to get them would be to inject that extra dosage of V that would lead him to die in a year.
They set up season 4 so well. The fact that homelander can do whatever he wants now is gonna be insane
@Kavetion okay
i love the boys but we have been saying this for almost 3 seasons
:Spoiler Warning:
Dude blows someone's head for yelling a single word and everyone praises him, and even worse, Ryan smiles after it. Can't wait for the 4th season, with Nadia as VP and such.
Spoiler warning ⚠️⚠️⚠️
I know I saw that and when Ryan smiled and MM's daughters step dad started cheering I was like, "Oh fuck, the airplane video won't mean shit to him" I think season 4 is gonna be the end
@@JetstreamSam343 I mean he didn't just yell he also hit ryan with a soda can or something
When I realised they were parodying that one bad Pepsi commercial in that one episode I bursted out laughing. This season was amazing. Can’t wait for season 4
@SoundFoodist you aint gone be famous with that lol, nice try tho
I guess you mean that one with A-train, is that it?
Same bruh, I thought it was totally satirical and the show made it up completely original. Then I learned it was a parody.
season 5 is the last season
there's even more, they were parodying that cringy Imagine cover during pandemic.
Only problem I have with The Boys having powers is that I remember season 1 watching them get creative to kill translucent, I was really for more of that
It was so Satisfying after how menacing the 7 were
Same, I figure it was to set up the idea that even though some Supes are OP af there is still a way to take them down. It was probably to show the audience that there will be a way to take out homelander, because on paper he is way to OP to just beat in combat.
They had too much stuff to get through to allow for 1-2 episodes to be completely about killing a single supe.
Frenchie still is the big brain of the team, figuring out how to knockout Soldier boy 🤷🏾♂️
It was cool but it’s not gonna cut it for anyone other than the deep. They aren’t touching a-train or homelander without powers.
Noir’s death definitely hit the hardest. He’s the ONLY member of the 7 through the entire show that constantly showed his loyalty to homelander, all the others turned to other issues and started scheming and lying and getting involved with the boys but not noir. Yes he did lie to homelander for his whole life about soldier boy being his father but my point is that his loyalty was constant the entire show and then homelander just ripped his guts out without a second thought while all the other disloyal members of the 7 had so much as a stern look or talking to after literally planning to kill homelander. It’s also sad too as we see in the last few episodes that noir has a lot of character development and he’s actually really sensitive and imaginative, he’s literally a kid inside his head. He was eager to help homelander end soldier boy for good but he didn’t even get a chance. He got done really dirty and the scene at the end with his cartoon character friends made me cry.
i really thought butcher was gunna kill homelander andnoir was gunna kill soldier boy. fuck homelander lol. i think noir is still alive.
@@s_lvermilk6151 nah the deep is just kissing homelanders ass cuz he’s scared of him
I think Homelander did it because he was emotionally hurt the most by his actions compared to the things the other Seven members had done, he's clearly torn up about it beforehand for a second if you watch his expressions. Noir is weirdly the closest thing he had to an actual father figure/mentor along with Vogelbaum, or if not that, the closest thing to a loyal friend.
I don't think he's dead. The man had his head bashed in and his brains spilt and he's still alive. You're telling me cause he got disembowled he's dead now?
@@s_lvermilk6151 The Deep is loyal in the same way that I'm loyal to paying my taxes... because I have to. The Deep constantly pisses off Homelander and basically everyone else that isn't in the church (which he doesn't even really believe in, he's just using it for influence). It's obvious Deep only cares about his own fame and attention, and that's Homelanders job, so it makes sense that he's taking the back seat until someone takes care of Homelander and he can take a better position.
Ryan grinning as the crowd cheers is genuinely terrifying. The thought of a child of that caliber having that sort of influential moment. Like fuck.
Ryan needs to go. I don't want a redemption story.
it was perfectly slowly executed too, I was like "please don't smile" to "oh fuck no"
@@bendover7841 there's doesn't need to be, no one needs to go, calm your ass down, relax and enjoy watching TV.
@@bendover7841 Like Billy said. Every last one of them.
@@bendover7841 Redemption? I bet Ryan would become modern day Caligula but with super powers
Honestly one of the best parts of The Boys is the marketing. Vought has a real actual verified RUclips channel where they post actual videos in universe. Like they have an A-Train music video, a "house tour" by Ashley of a superhero mansion for a superhero reality show, commercials for merchandise and brand deals, full trailers for movies in the show, clips from the Vought news channel, etc. And the best part is the fan engagement because ALL the comments are people playing along like it's real and they are fans in universe. Like the full Soldier Boy music video just has comments complimenting him and stanning him and talking about how he was such a great hero and he will be missed. And depending on the video the narrative of the comments changes depending on what information the public would have in the show at that point. And you can tell it's not a bunch of bots but like actual fans just having a fun time roleplaying along with the content. It's just really cool and I appreciate that extra step to enhance the world of the show.
Also shoutout to Karen Fukuhara who plays Kimiko, she has her own youtube channel where she not only does normal youtube content but she also talks about her routine on the show and she does Q&A's with other actors from the show like Erin Moriority who plays Starlight or the woman who plays Stormfront.
Well said! I couldn’t agree more. The amount of dedication this is in making this show and creating its world and universe is absolutely outstanding and I don’t think is something any other show or movie has ever done before.
@@connorkonen5770 Yeah in the modern day of so many shows (good and bad) just being pumped out to release, just "here's this episode, here's this episode, here's the rest of the episodes, see you next season", it is really refreshing and worth commending when shows put in the effort like this to really flesh out the community experience.
If They made a legit fake website for the stuff, with an improved description, then yes.
they have a dedicated twitter account and a site for selling they sex toys aswell and I like how people are playing along as if they're part of the theboys universe
We need more wholesome bots
A-train's subplot was perfectly done and not alot of people talk about it.
Forreal, he's kind of the original villain of the show and they developed his character in such a believable and impactful way
The fact that you can pity, and maybe even empathize with fucking A-Train of all people shows just how well it's been written.
Word. Loved how they turned his character around. He’s still selfish, or at least adamant on keeping himself afloat, but he tried to do something good. Even if he failed miserably. And his punishment was terrible. I would have been happy if he died where he technically did. But the fact that he’s still alive, the way vought forced him back to life, it’s sick.
@@edbeded with the heart of the asshole who crippled his brother for life no less. Peak irony right there.
Best character arc hands down.
the biggest letdown in the final episode to me was when Hughie turned up all he lights and shit to fully juice up Starlights powers and she started flying and glowing and looked badass just to knock back soldier boy a bit. i expected like an all powerfull blast ripping a hole into him but it was just puny really
That's what I was thinking. All that build up just to knock him back 2 feet.
lmao yea that was weak as fuck. I was so goddamn disappointed
He’s pretty much indestructible. The only thing that even seemed to really do da,die were the laser eyes and even then it was just a flesh wound
That's the charm ig. You can never expect it to go the traditional superhero movie way with a final ultimate shot or power of emotions and all that.
Soldier Boy is just built different. He also survived a great fall from Vought tower which meant he was a durable mofo.
Fun Fact: that opening scene was actually practical, they physically made the cave
Honestly not surprised given they made an entire practical whale with insides
kool
props for that…….pun intended
@@adripurdy1998 Very punny
Imagine getting to put that on your resume. "I helped build a big dickhole"
Can we just give Todd an award for being the biggest meatrider in all of fiction? I still don’t know what Monique sees in that guy.
🤓homelander was a good guy🤓
@@smugofbishamonten1447 LMAO
I mean he seemed sane at the start of the season for like eight seconds, but yeah, why she chooses to stay with him is beyond me. I feel like they’ll have him end up getting killed by Homelander as collateral damage or something
I want MM to take Temp V or Compound V just to kill that fucking guy
bro is literally a real life soyjack
I think the reason the compound V was so easily stolen was to fully shown how poorly managed Vought is since Homelander took over and the Deep got sealife in charge of security 😂
What I really love about season 3 is Buther and Hughie's temp V powers, how ironic both of their powers are Hughie having to go naked for his power like translucent and Butcher having lazer eys like homelander I just believe that the irony behind it is great.
Both the getting naked (Translucent) and getting to another place very quickly (A-Train) for Hughie
damn, I didn't even really realize that till now
First I thought Hughie's power was super speed and I said does this temp V give you your antagonist super power or what
I like that Butcher has the same powers as Homelander because it's indicative that Butcher ain't exactly the good guy of the story either
I love the fights with Homelander this season, he's never actually fought many people who were actual threats to him, it's so satisfying to see his shock when he can't just slice them in half with his laser eyes
Him being lasered by butcher and then getting up and going "What the fuck?" Made me laugh much harder than it should have.
Ehh tbh it made him look a lot weaker in my eyes than they built up his character to be. Man got his azz whooped by “M” in a fist fight lol
@@SeanyBravoLofi yeah that was stupid. Kinda made the entire season pointless tbh...
He was holding back a lot against her though
@@SeanyBravoLofi it makes sense she's just a better hand to hand fighter what's dumber is that "M" survived that fall with "SB" if ykyk
both Anthony Star and Jensen Ackles are some of the most perfect casting choices they could have made.
In only one season Jensen Ackles sang two 60s styled songs, became prominent, kicked ass, and gained his own army of chad-not-pussies army.
yes, actually the whole cast imo
Yeah, They couldn't create a more perfect anti-Chris-Evans-Captain-America if they deepfaked him 30 years from now. He looks and sounds like Evans Cap's evil twin and it's downright terrifying lol
@@SomeRUclipsTraveler What's even scarier is that Jensen and Chris are friends irl. Chris said that it could've been Jensen for Captain America but he was busy at the time with Supernatural.
@@questionable5825 That's awesome. I wonder what Chris thinks of Jensen's performance as his most famous character's dark mirror.
i think "the Deeps" story is deeper than Charlie is giving credit. I think it was a good take on couples who's main connection is upward social mobility.
I agree, but out of all of the remaining Seven (except Noir) and The Boys, I feel like the Deep is just less developed this season. I think that was what Charlie was getting at.
Real Eyes Realise Real Lies!
@@lukas4112 i honestly don't mind that
The Deep is honestly such an underrated character, because he’s played for comedy (and rightfully so, he should be laughed at, he’s a bad person). But despite his shittiness, he still experiences a lot of abuse and manipulation from the people around him. It’s hard to watch sometimes, which I guess is why they made it funny. If there was nothing to laugh at it would just be uncomfortable and weird.
@@ringodeathstarr6070 god dammit !!! Why the fuck did you remind me of that cringiy quotes !!
I'm surprised you didn't talk about Kimiko. I think she got some of the most development as a character this season, which is particularly noteworthy because she falls into the "silent but lethal asian woman" trope that even the writers regret using. I think the writing on her arc was very well crafted, especially seeing how her relationship with Frenchie was impacted. One thing I'm on the fence about her arc tho was that random musical scene, which really isn't that "random" or surprising anymore because I feel like random musical moments are pretty trendy in tv nowadays, but it was executed well and it was nice seeing Kimiko in that tone.
I do agree that the finally was sort of underwhelming
i was sort of disappointed in kimikos arc, when she finally lost her powers she immediately took them back. felt like a bit of a backstab in the writing.
@I may have a small penis but, When did he take away other supes powers?
Nah, I disagreed
Her dance in finale is the cringiest moment of the whole show
@@danaaung4671 and it kinda spat in the face of her trying to be less of a monster, instead of brutalizing security guards with a smile
Kimiko had the most generic anime character development
Man didn't even add a thumbnail, that's how good the show is

@@justsomeguywholovesberserk6375 I've seen it on every comment too
Block noir became my favorite character with just one scene. The fact that he has cartoon animals that talk to him and help him deal with his anxiety and help lift him up all the main one having a stutter is amazing.
Black
When you're not sure whether you should comment on "Block Noir" or the bot infestation...
@DONT READ MY PROFILE PICTURE Okay i won't.
So did I, then what happened happened and I honestly felt bad lol
KEEP LEGO NOIR PLEASE DONT EDIT IT
Honestly, I wish Black Noir got more screen time, at least a small fight with Homelander would have been nice but at the same time the sudden death did have impact. This was overall the best season and I think the finale of season 3 worked more as a setup for a future episode instead of a finale. Obviously a finale that'll go onto another season should have aspects to set up for more, BUT I feel like the finale lacked the feel of a finale.
Another note, the ending with Homelander in the finale felt genuinely, accurate to how the real world would work and I think it's hilarious and really links the viewer up with the show even further than it already could, not saying it didn't before.
I think Black Noir is still alive and they will go into more depth with him. They have a lot of characters to juggle
@@deecool47 that’s what I think tbh. I believe Vought/Edgar is going shoot him up with V
When homelander told ryan, "stay back and let me land the homes" I teared up. Such an impactful moment!
And when Frenchie said starlight was part of the boys 😎
@@realspider-man2217 Ikr, but it was truly shocking when they renamed it to "The boys and 1 girl"!

@@chrissmith5961 what about kimiko
Black Noir's death was, oddly, the saddest death in the show for me, something about it, like how his cartoon friends were there for him at his last moment and the fact that he was, pretty much, a kid in the inside. I was surprised The Deep didn't die though.
He died way to quick, and had no redemption. Really sucked how they did his character.
I think it was pretty lazy. They put in so much development into Noir throughout this season just to suddenly kill him off without any payoff. I get what they were going for, but it didn't feel deserving of the buildup. Almost feels like this isn't the end for Noir and he did survive this somehow. But if I had to guess, he's really gone.
He was one of the main people I wanted gone, A train a close second. God they’re both so aggravating
@@TheGrimHHH It's still possible that he's alive after showing his flashback when he survived soldier boy smacking his brains out
@@That90sGirl310 How do you get aggravated by Noir, he literally doesn't even speak lmao
I feel like 8 episodes just wasn’t enough for this season. I think there really needed to be one more episode to truly satisfy the finale.
true
Fr they really dropped the ball for such a good season
@@socksman9968 yeah I don’t think the finale ruined it for me since I enjoyed the other seven episodes a lot, and really most of the finale except for the climax but they really should’ve done more. Just one extra would’ve gone a long way
Every season has been 8 episodes
Yeah, the finale was quite weak in my opinion, it felt like a rushed episode to me
Is Antony Starr’s Homelander really the “best villain ever?”
Yes.
Yep fo sho
Definitely one of them for sure,
Antony, not Anthony.
@@yamyam263 got it!
I feel like he's second to Omni man because Omni man See's the people of earth as ants and slaves and homelander just wants to be loved by the people
I’m not sure why I avoided the show until now. Then I watched all 3 seasons in a week lol. It’s a 9-9.5/10👌
u look like the deep lowkey
@@adesingh2431 fax
dude literally same xd
@@adesingh2431 I wish I did
same
I like how much this season focused on character development ngl. Butcher, Kimiko and Frenchie, M.M, A-Train, Black Noir, even minor characters like Mallory all had a fair amount of depth this season and now I understand their motives even more.
I loved the growth in Hughies character in just a few episodes. Starting out with feeling like he needed powers so he could protect Annie, and then getting those powers, to now, rather than choosing power and strength, he found other ways to "save her". Maybe I over analyzed that, but when he turned up the power and put away the temp v, damn that was great character growth
@@kandordnd1601 same! I knew from the moment a train ran through his GF that he would get his revenge one day and get powers
It really does. The concept of temporary powers is definitely not just a gimmick, it really builds onto the character's. Butcher can finally fight homelander, Hughie isn't helpless. Kimiko becomes greatful of her powers. It does become cluttered, but the writers are really trying to make every character matter.
lol and then there's deep
Honestly didn’t expect this season to make me respect Ashley. She manages to constantly get shit on by everyone and still manages to still keep the company from imploding while the heroes try everything in their power to ruin everything and grows enough spine to call A-Train a hypocrite to his face.
A moment in Herogasm that flew under the radar which I loved was when MM explains his OCD to Starlight "All I know is that if I didn’t check the burners three times a night, Soldier Boy would come back and kill the rest of us". Writing and characters in this show is incredible.
and in the finale he's also repeatedly tapping on something (3 times) and his daughter stops him
What does SB have to do with burner? can someone please explain?

@@devyadav3273 OCD makes you associate random tics and compulsions with trauma
@@devyadav3273 there is actually a whitest kids you know song called "God says wash your hands" that is all about ocd.
The finale for this season felt weird mainly because it felt like they made it with the knowledge that they were for sure getting a season 4, so they did more setups for future arcs. The other two seasons had a finale where the show could've been canceled and still had a somewhat cohesive ending.
At this point I think the boys is to Amazon what stranger things is to Netflix, so it's not a risk making a season anymore
@Chris Cutshall nah, pretty much every show out there have a ending in the creator mind when it come out, for the boys it would be 5 seasons, if they happen to stretch it after that it will 100% become like TWD, Supernatural, Lost, and every show that have hundreds of episodes but after a certain point become a trainwreck, that you can clearly see where the show was supposed to end and when it started to become garbage that people only keep up to know how it will end
I hope they don't do that with the boys
@@luisfilipe2747 Kripke does not like fuckin with more than 5 seasons too. His plan for Supernatural was specifically 5 seasons and he yeeted out of there when they wanted to make more. Apparently he has same plan for the boys, but you never know with producers.
It’s already been confirmed on twitter
It felt less like a season finale and more like a 60 minute trailer for the next season.
Jensen’s interpretation of Soldier Boy was pretty good. They gave Soldier Boy a very gritty hardened personality opposite to his comic character. I guess it’s because we got to see Anthony Star’s character develop but hey I enjoyed this season, Jensen coming from the end of the Supernatural series into this was an interesting transition.
Antony*
M.M. was a surprising standout character this season. The actor did a fucking awesome job and I love how much they delved into the mental struggle of not only his character, but everyone else as well.
He does every season, my fav character of all
i loved MM but near the end he got annoying
the actor is amazing, but MM the character and also including starlight and ryan is annoying and always ruin thr storyline
@@narutouchiha5464 ye man especially when he called Solder boy racist.. like wut are you talking about how is he racist
Lazaro Alonso really knocked it out the park with everything : emotions, outbreaks, ticks etc.
I think the character development of Butcher, MM, A-Train, and Soldier Boy was fucking incredible in this season. Also the acting is all amazing
MM was kinda lackluster honestly
Soldier boy didn't have character development
@@poppopN He had more than MM.
You can't skip Hughie like that, he's the one who went through the most change, and change that made sense.
Don't forget Frenchie and Kimiko! So much development this season
One of the things I really appreciate about this show is how the most powerful supes have awful fighting choreography. Nobody with that much inhuman talent for destruction in a mundane world would actually ever feel the need to learn martial arts or even train at all. Why on earth would they?
How does homelander work out
@@asherkime5910 Train their fighting skills. Since homelander cant get hurt by basic weapons he shouldve learned a bunch of fighting styles just in case cus in his case they can be very useful in street fights or shit like this when he gets ganked by 2 similary powered individuals and you cant do much about it because one is almost as strong as you and the other is a powered up ex - SAS and CIA operative
As far as we know Homelander has just been able to split people in half with his eyes his whole life
i wouldn't really say that, maeve and soldier boy were competent, it was more so homelander that exhibited that. Soldier boy in particular had no trouble either with butcher or homelander apart from homelander having superior strength, he was also a good enough tactician to know that kimiko would try to lunge at him while he was distracted
That is incredibly incorrect.
Human martial art works under two premises: Moderate damage and lower than that durability.
Superhero combat is more akin to a pillow-fight - low damage and high durability.
Superhero optical fighting methods would look entirely differently than of normal martial arts (ex: quantity of punches > quality).
Soldier Boy exchanging fists with Homelander and it looking like they bitch-slapped each other repetitively….. is accurate.
Soldier Boy can survive a Tzar bomb (Russian scientist referencing the “nuclear field test” in Russian with dates matching IRL Tzar bomb test).
Homelander is exactly like that.
And, therefore, it stands to reason that their durability is far far beyond their offensive measures. It is not even close…. Rendering their fight a bitch-slapping/pillow fight contest.
Martial arts with different weak points, different ratio of strength-to-durability will act differently.
Homelander was punched solidly like…. 20 times. And all he got was a minor bruise at most.
Favorite comedic scene was easily the parody of Gal Godot's "Imagine" video collab.
The best part is they don't even change it, they just copy it to a T and it's hilarious because of the context of the scene and the context of real life
Main issue with the finale is Noir’s death. Aside from that, starlight’s ultimate powerup just do a little knock-back move was goofy and the fighting didn’t really lead to much/do anything crazy. The show is still top tier and nothing else comes close to how solid the writing and acting is here.
Nah Noir is coming back next season for sure. The guy got too much character development to just die like that, and also he's known to have some form of regeneration, like when he survives a point blank explosion from the supe terrorist, or when soldier boy beats his brains out. Also yeah the starlight moment was just cool to look at i guess?
@@racket804 they said that noir is dead and the mantle’s being passed on
I think Annie's powerup went more towards healing her than actual firepower. She was pretty much beaten up until that point. She floated, which was cool, but she mostly got her equivalent of a gatorade and a powernap.
@@razarryan2465 really? That sucks I would've loved to see noir come back hellbent on killing homelander, maybe even with The Boys
@@razarryan2465 they also said solider boy was dead but look at him now. also homelander just thinks he's dead correct me if im wrong but noone else says noir died.
Can we talk about how in the finale, Starlight spent over a minute charging up her power, only for the result to be a weak push to Soldier Boy. It even sounded like a Wet Fart, which was fitting.
To be fair. It is soldier boy remember.
@@callumsnaylam4252 it didn’t even blind him
@@callumsnaylam4252 Exactly its Soldier Boy, he got a knockback from Ryan's laser too. Maybe at the very least they could've knocked him off the building or burn his skin.
Yeah.... He wasn't even disoriented or blinded by all that power which really put a damper on the big finale fight. Idk if it was cuz if the budget, but the payoffs was indeed a little lackluster with the whole fight happening on just 1 floor too
@SoundFoodist what’s wrong with you
Maeve was originally providing the compound V and then Starlight had to "sneak" into headquarters to get more. But yeah, it wasn't really ever an obstacle.
Wasn't Maeve imprisoned at that point though?
Considering Vought is the largest and most powerful corporation in this world, it’s laughable how easy it is for people to break in whenever they please.
Figured vought just loosened security since the public knew about compound V and that supes are made in a lab
@VoughtProductions im wondering about this, did queen maeve not see the warning too even though she retrieved temp v twice? why didnt she tell butcher, there's no way she didnt see it
@@plantgum She didn’t care about the risks because she wanted Homelander dead more than anyone. Even fought him 1 on 1, knowing she’d likely lose.
The part when The Homelander stood up and said “it’s homing time” near enough made me tear up, amazing performance!

@@quidproque76 Well it changed cinema what do you expect
On the note of the V. I feel like it makes sense, it started out being this mythical substance that you don't hear or see in the show except in express circumstances. But due to The Boys and the things they've done to expose compound V, it's dragged it out the shadows. The reason Compound V was so hard to get, was because no one even knew about it in the first place and now that people are more aware of compound V. Vought doesn't have to hide it around as much as they used to and the protagonists of the show don't have to sniff very far to get what they dragged into the light. It's not that it's plentiful, it's that the protagonists know how and where to get it more importantly.
Maeve litterally gave them the v
More importantly, the boys finally opened their circle of trust to other heroes. Once they got people on the inside. A lot of the sneaky, covert stuff were unnecessary
You forgot it costs like a trillion dollars to produce

@@JGRL0RD no because they were kind of mass producing it and getting it ready to send to armies all over the world. Definitely expensive but not trillions
that ending was so perfect, the fact Homelander can just blast someone like that and his fans support him is one step closer to him ruling over all, we’ll get some real destruction next season 100 percent
I mean TOOOOO be fair, the guy who got blasted assaulted a literal child. I think homelander only blasted the dude because it hit ryan, he can handle people talking shit but fucking with the only thing he cares about in the world, tough luck
@@Devakiinable you’re basically Todd 😭
@@fraud3060 it’s a slippery slope huh
He really can’t take someone disliking him. He needs approval from the humans, from fans. So if someone is annoying him he will just kill them.
@@alexh2797 yeah this confirms it. He will be a full dictator and killing people who he dislikes. And I hope ryan would be like homelander so we can see how butcher deal with it lol
Now that I think about it, pretty much every single character had some type of development. We find out about Victoria Neuman's past, while also revealing Stan Edgar's human side as an adoptive father who seemed to genuinely care about this woman. Kimiko went through her Journey, same with Frenchie having to deal with his past. We find out about the origin of MM's OCD. We go inside the mind of Butcher and learn more about his abusive father and Lenny. Even Ryan went through a bunch of changes, even if they were mostly off screen. This show is a straight up masterpiece, i fukin love it. It's diabolical in the best way possible.
Yeah, I like how they tied their past all in smoothly this season. I especially like how Madelyn was telling her story and Butcher interrupted her to go earl in the toilet and 10-15 minutes later in the show he comes out to tell her to finish where she left off. lol
@@spankbuda7466 I think you meant Malory lol (yeah I know this is a year old so what)
I love how you went from “Season 2 isn’t as good as the first season” to “Every season is better than the previous”
I think he just forgot that S2 is a minor step down from S1
He gave it the same score, he just had a few more nitpicks about it
One underrated aspect of this season that I feel they knocked out of park was the in-universe media. Songs like "Licence to drive", "Chimps Don't Cry", and "Soldier Boy's Rapture", are surprisingly enjoyable to listen to. And seeing fans of the show in the comments of Vought's social media posts and videos roleplaying as in-universe people, is an amazing feat for a show like this to pull off without seeming overly forced.
My aunt was one of the solid gold dancers, she said she met soldier boy. He apparently was a great human!
RIP soldier boy, forever in our hearts
baby baby baby got your license to drivee rip supersonic
Fun fact rapture is a real song made by the blondies i think
So true the reality building in the boys is so good
Just a logical point of view
Jensen Ackles was so damn perfect as Soldier Boy. This season was so hype can’t wait for season 4.
@SoundFoodist So fucking cool! 😂😂😂🔥🔥🔥 lul
Considering how much they change the characteristics and the storyline flow compared to comic version, i would probably say Jensen Ackles really do a good performance.

@@ilovebirds23 Supernatural is good tho.
I love Charlie’s reviews on stuff, very honest and informative. Just wish he’d have a section at the end of the video with spoilers so that he can tell all his honest thoughts at different crazy moments.
Also spoilers:
Totally agree with the overuse of Temp V this season, but I think it was easier to get because they actually have Maeve on their side, and she’s been at the tower long enough and WAS trusted enough to be able to sneak in and steal some.
More Spoilers:
I was also on the whole "ok now they're overusing the hell outta Temp V to get shit done".
However, like you said, it kinda makes sense how they got it through Maeve. I think that they were building up a realization for the characters. Now that Maeve is retired and in hiding, and Starlight is officially one of the Boys, there won't be a way for them to get Temp V anymore (and also the side effects that it'll kill them). So now they'll have to go back to using dirty tactics to get one up on the supes
The reason V is so much more available is because it went from a big secret to something they openly produce research and sell.
Fun fact: the Joker never even used the phrase “We live in a society” in film until the Snyder cut directly referenced the memes. It’s just been memes causing a Mandela effect to make you believe it was something the joker ever said
he says It during the interviews. I remember cause I saw it in theaters
@@Dainyo. that was after the memes
Only one misremembering here is you buddy.
"We live in society" indeed came from memes, but was never tied to certain movie.

I don't think there is a single bad line read from any character in the show. Every actor deserves an Emmy for at least one thing every scene. Anthony Starr's performance is just so legendary you sometimes forget just how amazing everyone else's acting is too. The real hero of the show is the casting director.
Even Kimiko, a character that doesn't speak, never misses a beat. It's wild
The girl who plays starlight isn’t really vibing with me, lots of blank stares and kind of flat delivery.. she was good in season 1 tho. Everyone else is awesome always
@@VeryBadVideos shes cute tho so gets a pass
The only man in the sky is me.
@@VeryBadVideos I think the actress does a great job, the power scaling of starlight falls very short though. She was supercharged and able to even fly just to knock soldier boy back a couple feet and knock herself out, pretty disappointing tbh
I cried when Billy Butcher said "Its Butchin Time" and Butchered the shit out of Homelander, 15/10 definitely one of the shows of all time
It was a sweet moment when he yelled "Im Homming 😩" and kissed the homies goodnight
*the best shows
Ohhh shit that was a good one too but the best part will always be Hughie saying "Its Hughing Time" and teleporting inside HL's cockhole and punching his scrotum. Man that scene will always hit me in the feels.
i like when Butcher is like "Homy good, soldy bad" and betrays SB
Homelander: No Way Home
I honestly hope that Soldier Boy gets some sort of redemption arc, and hopefully they don't just leave him in cryostasis for the rest of the series and forget about him. I'm a big fan of Jensen Ackles
Same, I honestly was rooting for Maeve and soldier boy in the final fight. I didn’t care about butcher or Ryan or starlight lol
I was fuming when Ryan lasered soldier boy
Same, i love soilder boy, he goes crazy
Fr Soldier Boy is the good guy. Favorite character by far.
It's strange ge they play him out to be a person as bad as Homelander but the guy doesn't seem that way. He very bad and terrible but he's not Homelander. He not a sociopath.
All I know is that the ending with Ryan is dead center in the vibes of the comic. That smile there. Eric Kripke does an amazing job.
Maeve saying to someone “you should wear a sign that says ‘raw dog me I’m a bottom’” made me laugh so hard. I’ll be thinking about that one for a while

Right after I watched this I got really sick, and decided, since I couldn't leave my bed, and I had never seen this, I would just binge it lol. Which I did, for the last few days straight. It's 2 50am for me rn, and I just finished the finale. Fucken amazing, best show I've watched in so long. Thank you Charlie lol
Anthony Starr as Homelander is just perfect, definitely one of the best/scariest villains ever, can't wait to see him really get loose in S4
Fr he's so underrated😂
My question is, why has he _still_ not just killed all or most of them by now. We've already established that all his reasons for not doing so are gone. There's literally zero leverage against him anymore. He could just fly on over to wherever Huey is, pop his head, and what's anyone gonna do about it? He had Deep assassinate _a VP candidate_ ffs. Just send A-Train to splatter them all, like everyone was afraid he'd do back in season 1 when Homelander still cared about his image.
After that final scene, where he realizes he really _can_ "walk down 5th avenue and shoot someone and not lose any fans" (obvious parallel is obvious), if the Boys aren't all being hunted down at the start of S4 this show will have officially lost its stakes.
Also, the fact that Head-Popper Neumann was the Season 3 cliffhanger, and then got set up as a huge wildcard threat in the first half of the season... but then completely disappeared from the plot, was a big waste. In line with the first part of my comment, now that all the heroes have turned down working with her, there's no plausible reason that none of their heads have exploded yet.
@@SomeRUclipsTravelerfor all Homelander knows Huey and butcher now have powers, and as we saw butcher alone held him off for quite some time, not to mention they also have starlight with them so he couldn't really just go there and kill them as for a train, up until the very end of the season he couldn't really run like he did back then, maybe in the next season they'll explore that.
I legit believe that Homelander is more scary and threatening than Darth Vader.
*Antony
Only thing about the finale that really disappointed me was Black Noir. That being said I’m 100% sure he’s not dead and he’ll definitely be Stan’s final play against Homelander.
SPOILER Eric Kripke said this in an EW interview:
“Come season 4, which will start filming this August, Mitchell will play "a different character who wears the Black Noir suit," Kripke reveals. "It's definitely not the last we've seen of Black Noir as a hero. It's just that the guy who was inside [the Noir suit] in season 3, he's gone. But we have Nathan playing a really interesting and hilarious character who wears the suit next season."
Sounds like the Noir from the last 3 seasons will be replaced by a new character that wears his suit.
Seemed pretty dead to me, I think the cartoon animals fading away is the shows way of confirming it
@@gvairsoft5994 nah
@@gvairsoft5994 I saw that as the last bit of humanity leaving him so he can be brought back by Vought as the soul-less automaton he projects with his persona.
I’m just choosing to believe lol.
Dude got his brain split in half by Soldier Boy and he still survived lol. Yeah he's not dead
@@gvairsoft5994 A-train literally had his heart stop in the middle of nowhere and he was fine. I think Noir has regenerative powers.
Homelander is great, especially in his scenes with butcher. Star and urban have great chemistry. I liked A-trains arc of finally realising what kind of person he is and what kind of person he wants to be. The Soldier boy/Noir dynamic was interesting, I hope Noirs okay lol. Maeve was badass! I'm so glad she got to kick homelanders ass a bit and got a happy ending lol. They kinda did the same as stranger things with setting up the next season which I'm okay with personally. I loved it basically.
A-train keeps floundering, going back on his character development, and undoing any good deed he ever sets out to do in the name of self-interest. This is depressingly realistic characterization. Movies / shows tend to try to give someone a personality flaw that is "fixed" through development, to become a better person, but that's usually not what happens IRL. People use any excuse they can to leap back into their old habits.
@@NotTheAntichrist Exactly! I've got to give credit to Jesse T Usher for his acting this season, he really nailed it. His slow realisation that he's a terrible person was fascinating and sad to watch. I think big things are coming for A-train next season although I sadly suspect it will end with his death.
A trains a backstabbing rat
Kimiko and Frenchie has got to be one of my all-time favourite on-screen romances. They have so much chemistry for such odd characters and despite Frenchie being quite a horrible dude in the past (killing children, involved in shady shit, heavy drug use etc) he is so damn redeemable and I love to see writing that good. It's only been 3 Seasons and yet it feels like all these characters have come a long way...Except maybe Butcher, dude needs some arc after that stuff with Mindstorm haha.
I agree, the finale here was somewhat underwhelming and especially since I wasn't expecting another season as a given.
tbh i find it kinda creepy since Kimiko basically acts like a child
@@vicentehamel It's like a Japanese girl culture thing. They act kawaii and innocent because Japanese society kinda enforces that stereotype. Many use it as a front.
Kimiko was kidnapped by human traffickers very young so i assume it's just like a stunted development thing rather than that@@takoshihitsamaru4675
the scene where starlight leaked a social media about HL and supes in general was one of my fav scenes this season, it gave me goosebumps... what actually terrified me tho was the finale where HL merks a dude in broad daylight in front of a crowd of people and janine's step cheers for him... that really makes me think HL is gonna be unhinged next season
He literally stood in the middle of 5th Avenue and lasered somebody, and didn't lose a single fan.
@@SomeRUclipsTraveler lmaoooooo
Watching the series is stressful now I constantly expect someones head to explode lol
If youve read the comics you know what he’s gonna do. Which means s4 might be the last season. I wonder if theres gonna be anything new to fill in the gaps between the seasons like they did with 7 on 7 with cameron coleman.
@@SomeRUclipsTraveler 💀💀💀
The finale isn’t so much underwhelming and more just feels like it’s not the finale, when season 4 starts I imagine these 2 seasons will blend together a lot more and feel like 1 long season, whereas the first 3 seasons are very distinct from eachother and the finale/first episode sets a line that you’ll remember changing things, namely Stormfront arriving at the beginning of season 2 and being defeated at the end. It almost feels like next Friday I’m going to tune into prime and just keep watching it really
Reminder that other shows like aot have reclaimed a city from titans for the first time in their history, captured the female titan, uncover the real enemy amongst them, learn about the coordinate, destroy the royal family, reclaim wall maria & uncovered the truth of the world. All this while Butcher and his team are stuck playing catch and release with Homelander. Building up the story and characters is great but without any sort of payoff within the season, it’s doesn’t come off as good writing.
@@erluq9309 isn't anime literally filled with fuck loads of filler episodes every season.
@@KW-ng8nd attack on titan doesn't have filler, Only long shows with hundreds of episodes have filler if they have to keep airing stuff weekly or whatever. It really isn't the norm.
I disagree with the boys not having payoff, as a bunch of stuff changes. It's just that the goal was killing homelander, which failed, so feels a bit anti-climatic
@@Dorma_ Killing Homelander was probably not going to be an option for the writers once they were confident they’d get a S4 because of how Antony Starr is their standout actor and his character is the show’s long-term main antagonist. So they had to find a way to do the finale without killing him. It ended up coming out a bit underwhelming but it was still a good finale I think. Hopefully if they get a S5 they can find better ways to not kill Homelander in S4 while still maintaining a good amount of payoff for the plot. Like maybe for this season they could have ended it with Homelander getting de-powered tho I get why they ended up not doing that to keep him as a powerful antagonist.
***SPOILERS***
If you think about it, there's only 3 things that season three has changed:
1. Ryan now likes (maybe?) Homelander
2. Butcher is dying in 12/18 months
3. Black Noir is dead
Aside from that, everything that season three presented us can be skipped. Soldier Boy? He only appeared to kill a bunch of side characters that we haven't see before and most of us don't even care, and at the end he was captured again. Butcher and Hughie having temporary powers? It doesn't matter because they can't use that shit without dying, so they probably are not gonna use again (except for Butcher, because he is already dying). Maeve without powers? Well, she barely used her powers in this season. The Kimiko arc where she hates killing and thinking she's a monster and then lost her powers? It doesn't matter, because she gain her powers back and accept that she's a monster, so at the end nothing changes for her.
I completely agree. This show slaps and it’s only getting better for sure
I stopped the video two minutes in, binged every season of The Boys, and now I'm back to continue it. Good show, looking forward to more.
Yeah, the finale does seem a bit underwhelming. It feels like everything ended where it started, but there's a lot of setup for the next season. I just hope they don't prolong things for more than needed. Lot of character development in this season, which is getting me more excited for the next one.
Yeah, I feel you. Things just feel like they reset hard when a season ends, and most of the big plot points they set up in the season finales don't really seem to have much of an impact on the next season.
worst episode of the season. first time i was disappointed with this show
@@Baronnax i really liked the finale but i agree, the only thing thats changed really is neumans moved up a tier in the politcal world and homelander has people who support him killing people who oppose him now so thats gonna be fun for season 4
Just disappointed because all the other episodes were 9 or 10/10s. Finale was a 7, maybe an 8.
I didn‘t like that the show wasn‘t braeve enough to kill certain characters, and I do hope that it wasn‘t Noirs last scene because it doesn‘t feel like his arc is over.
But other than that, with Ryan becoming evil, it‘s gonna be one hell of a fourth season
@@lonick1692 There's a lot of small changes too. Hughie dealt with his feelings of being weak, MM resolved personal issues (and opened up to his daughter, which will make the stepdad relationship a lot more interesting), Ryan being influenced by his dad, and a possibility of Stan coming back. Also I'm hoping for Noir to come back. I feel like his story's not done yet

I was so excited for every episode this season.
Great season.
Simply Slapped.
While I understand the issue with compound V being so hard for them to get in the eariler seasons, that's also because they have wayyyy more access now than they did in the beginning. Starlight is the most popular member of the 7, Maeve is really highly respected and is actively getting them information and access to Vought they never had before
On top of all this, I think it would have been really annoying if, every time they needed v24, it was turned into this big deal and the show was halted for it...that would have been BAD.
Gotta say Anthony Star, Karl Urban and now Jensen Ackles are extremely top tier actors in The Boys. I could definitely see Karl Urban or Anthony Star getting a reward for their performances in this show. I can't wait for season 4 this has gotten to be my favorite show by far
Yea too bad we have to wait probably till Sep of next year 😖😒

That MANIACAL grin on Butchers face when he started fighting Homelander. It's burned into the back of my skulll

For some dumb reason I put off watching this show forever. I finally started it last week, and I just finished the season 3 finale, now I’m here. I can’t believe I waited so long to watch this show. It has now easily become one of my favorite shows ever and I can’t wait for season 4.
The Boys is the only show i’ve ever seen where every single character in the massive 12+ character ensemble is PERFECTLY devoloped and and well performed
No one gets too much screen time, or too little, it’s so balanced to the point where any one of them could be the main character and it wouldn’t feel off
Yes 100% even noir’s scenes gave that same vibe
I feel like Stranger Things also does this well. Where 3 groups do different things but then meet up for the finale (at least that worked well in season 3, don't know for S4 yet)
HOLY SHIT I JUST REALIVED THAT. That in of it self is demanding of a reward because of how damn hard it is to do
The only character I would argue is kind of just there sometimes is Maeve
Arcane is another show that did this really well

Total banger! Really excited for season 4!
Overall I loved the season, the finale was definitely missing a good payoff though. The fights felt like they were missing something, Herogasm’s payoff felt the most satisfying especially with the set up from the episode before. Some characters felt like they did a 180 in the finale as well as some weird decisions with certain characters. Herogasm felt like more of a finale than the actual finale.
Wtf is wrong with these bots
The finale was perfect up until the point everyone suddenly decided Taking soldier boy out was more important than killing Homelander
Whole season = good. Finale = dogshit
Episode 7s cliffhanger was more a finale
@@individual5021 it makes sense for Butcher to try and protect Ryan I think, seems like Maeve is the only one who really cared about taking him out
I loved that Maeve's actions during the final climactic fight really displayed that more than everyone else there--at her core--she really is a hero. All of The Boys are either broken people or good people doing what they have to acting out of rage and vengeance, but none of them really have the instinct to be heroic and pull the ultimate sacrifice play. Maeve was the only one in the room with the instincts to do what needed to be done and I thought that just put such a beautiful bow on her character arc thus far. I cried at her noble redemption.
Hughie is a little heroic, half and half
Didn't she toss a bottle of something that was powerful enough to knock out soldier boy out of a window? Couldn't that have killed a lot of people?

3:30 a great piece touching this subject is shown in The Boys Presents: Diabolical episode 8, it's basically showing when Homelander first was revealed to the public, it makes you understand him a little more and shows why he was close with Black Noir.
great video. to the point made about the ease of getting compound v, vought started transitioning more into the production of compound v and temp v for police and military, hence why it became so abundant and accessible. also helps that homelander started running the company and made plenty of mistakes
Herogasm (ep6) feels like a finale worthy episode. Was literally the outstanding episode in this season if not the enitre show. I think it was so hard to follow this and we were expecting so much more from the finale after seeing it.
A smart TV show will give you the finale's action on the episode before and use the finale to build up suspense for the next season, or to answer a bunch of questions
Herogasm was not that good lmao, I don’t see how y’all are saying it was finale worthy because the short fight they had

Homelander's presence just makes you feel pressure, whenever he was too calm or too insane my heart started racing, it was so amazing, Star's acting is so fucking good.
MM has been in my top 5 characters on the show since season 1 and I’m so glad he got a lot more attention this season. Really just bolstered my love for Laz Alonzo’s performance.
His character has too many race related lines for me to enjoy his character.

@@johannesziaether3916 "You ain't a hero, you are just another racist piece of shit we can't seem to get rid of."-MM, He says this to Soldier Boy, who during the entire season does not say one thing related to race and who even praised Bill Cosby, claiming he is America's Dad.
Your review is outstanding and insightful nice vid!👍
Butcher made me tear up twice, when becca died and when he woke up from the nightmare thing in the forest. Absolutely incredible performances.
