Since so many of you wanted to weigh in on The Boys

I don't know if I should actually link cybersmith

Transcription:

culture crave posts:

'The Boys' S5 finale is at 6.7 on IMDb
The final two episodes are the lowest-rated in the show's history

Cybersmith responds:

The writers really destroyed their own art out of a pig-headed refusal to look beyond their own political biases.
Homelander should have killed the nonbelievers and ushered in Heaven on Earth.
THAT would have made the show an all-time great.
Now? It'll just be remembered as a disappointment.

People wanting homelander to go “scorched earth” are showing that they don’t understand the character. If he was as powerful as he said he was, it wouldn’t have gotten to this point. I know that a destructive character can be fun, but it’s like people weren’t watching the show

But that ending was fine just very confused and tried to resolve so many different plots in one episode , but this is why you don’t get attached to cape shit

I don’t like how homelander is a stand-in for Trump, was defeated and illustrated a hope that we can all go back to brunch after this is over. And vought will be much better now under new leadership. At least that’s how I read it

Also really left a bad taste in my mouth that Israel wasn’t poked at even once, but shouldn’t be surprised I guess. Liberal fan fiction
