The Boys

[irocfan]

anyone else watching this new series on Amazon - nice and dark, violent and totally fked up. Quite watchmen-like in concept I guess

[Captain Smerc]

The Boys graphic novel series is (probably) the best thing I've ever read , absolutely bang on !

[colin_p]

Currently watching episode 4.

It is a bit dark, in fact very. But highly watchable.

[edit] I'll say no more other than Dolphin !

Best thing I've watched on Amazon in a while.
The dodgy English accent adds to the appeal.
Some great lines & lol moments.
Fab TV.

Enjoyed that, first time I've binged a whole series like that in one go for a long time. Dolphin.

Dam it couldn’t see this thread just started another

Yes this show is great. Up to episode 8 now.

[SlimJim16v]

I read mixed reviews, so wasn't bothered. After reading this thread, I gave it a go, good enough for me to watch 2 in a row

Just finished it, great characters, great story and dolphins...

Binged it this weekend and really enjoyed it, great to see the darker side of being a superhero managed by an evil corporation. Lets hope there's a second series, it certainly seemed set up for one.

Heard this is very good, Beyond the Trailer loves it. It's a very similar story to Marshall Law from decades ago.

A second series has already been green lit

[Guvernator]

Binged watched this over the weekend, brilliant show.

If Superheroes really existed, they'd more than likely be like this, not goody two shoes as portrayed in most other films or shows. Brutal, good story and excellently acted, Homelander especially is brilliantly sinister.

Oh and dolphins.

[anonymous-user]

very gory, dark, and refreshing against the netflix marvel stuff.

Yes the dolphin,lobster and shape shifter bloke were great bits

Dolphin (and laser baby)

I am going to Hell...

[Guvernator]

Oh yes laser baby, inspired.

How old is this? The chief exec has a first gen Cayenne from 2010 at best!

Also I don’t get the wild woman who did the nail bar - what’s her story?

Loved the dolphin and stretch Armstrong bloke.

I’m only up to episode 8 but so far they’ve discovered they were taking terrorists and creating super terrorists probably in order to get military contracts
