Almost everyone is still alive except the Frenchman, so I wouldn't be surprised if they decide to continue in a couple of years + the soldier is alive

It's just a new idea, because as far as I know, it was the last chapter in the comics.

@lady_kana: it's funny to look at the posters for season 5 now - a Homelander in space looking at the destruction on earth, Butcher against the background of the destroyed Vaught Tower, this poster with a hundred supers behind the Homelander, is how marketers misled.

By the way, we noticed how in this episode the Homelander literally flew into space in 2 seconds and returned (when the millionaire was carried away), or in the last one, he reached Frenchy in almost a split second when he knocked, but then he couldn't fly away from Butcher and Kimiko. (even in the Herogasm episode, when he didn't have V1, he flew away, even though he was pinned to the floor by three people). Or how he literally tore people in half with his laser (even in the first episode of this season, Kimiko), but he couldn't do anything here. It's clear that there are a lot of such moments in the series, but at least in the finale, the scriptwriters could have thought about it.

Now, for some reason, I've just reviewed the moments from this series, I thought maybe the first impressions let me down, but no, it's really a very weak ending, I once thought that the comic had a clever ending, but now I realize that it wasn't so bad there.

@mansy: and why, instead of spreading the poison to all the soups, the whole Butcher gang didn't hunt the soups and rob them of their powers with the help of Kimiko? It's not an easy idea, but at least not radically. They didn't even think about it. Or is there something I don't understand?

@Lebowski: The last season of GoT had its hat full, all the character development gone wrong, absolutely not logical moves, and incredibly stupidly filmed battles.
In general, the season and the series ended quite as expected, I don't understand what people expected from the "fairy tale" about children. To make everyone die to hell? It initially looked like a Happy Ending series (yes, many people burned out on the LGBT monologue, and it was kind of out of place on the one hand, but on the other, it wasn't that annoying. The final fight was crumpled and painted over, but the Epilogue was good, so it's hard to call the ending ST bad)
B The Boys must be given credit for the fact that the series was made from a fairly average comic book, which, apart from a fierce tinplate and a raft of twist with Noir, offered nothing new. We've already seen everything, plus or minus, in Watchmen, The Tick, and so on. But the series gave both character development and backstory, and even an alternative arc to Noir (which, although worse than the original, nevertheless has a place to be and be loved). It was interesting to see the parallels of the arches of the Submarine and the Train, when they started from about the same level of "asshole" and how differently they finished. In general, in the final season, the first 2 episodes were very good, but then in 6 episodes we saw so much filler garbage that we immediately remembered the garbage season 6 of Peaky Blinders.
The last episode of the Boys may not have been straight 10/10, but it's clearly better than episodes 3-7, where apart from Samuel Jackson in the form of a shark and a gag with a dog, I don't remember anything. Yes, for some reason the characters are Gen V. Yes, the fight was banal, but in general the outcome was obvious.
I'm glad for MM. In general, if the first season was solid 8, seasons 2-4 are closer to 7, this one is probably the 6th

@Xenobait: I don't think the resentment about the ST finale is related to the low number of deaths. In general, there is some strange fashion for as many characters as possible to appear at the end of all TV series. What for? What's wrong with happy endings? The ending of ST is bad not because of this, but because of the contradictions in the script, because instead of revealing the characters and their relationships, we listen to the same speeches all season, as if the authors decided that the audience has grown so old in 5 seasons that there is now an audience of sclerotics. Missing scenes, illogical behavior of the characters, and much more, including a previously set bar.

Usually, there's nothing wrong with happy endings. I love them very much, and the bad endings are always frustrating and just feel like a drain.

But here! It's just nonsense. They soaked everyone from right to left, they raised and raised the degree of insanity, and in the end they fucked it up. The children's finale came out, absolutely disproportionate to the whole series.

The situation in the SD is slightly different. The low number of deaths there just doesn't look realistic. It was like a series that felt like something that could have happened with a stretch. They presented it like this. But in the end, this immunity of the main characters (of course, except for one🙄) ruined everything.

In short, people don't know how to make finals. Although the guys outperformed many by doing it to the hilt, it's not a shame to end the story LIKE that.

@Xenobait: The ending of "Game of Thrones" is far from ideal (the line with Daenerys, as far as I'm concerned, is great, she kills all the unwanted people throughout the series and so far the unwanted (to put it mildly) are not good people, neither the positive characters nor the audience have any problems, but when she continues to do everything in her own way the usual style, but the attitude towards ordinary people is already changing a little (like the exchange rate of the Venezuelan bolivar). The personal tragedy of Jon Snow is not bad (but in the end he was hidden in the refrigerator until better times ...), and the lines of Sansa (I didn't work this one out from a small letter to a large letter), Bran Arya and many others... This is, of course, a separate topic. But this is far from the worst ending. And the boys were disproportionately less lucky. It has already been said a lot that the possibilities of a homelander change not even from season to season, not from series to series, but within ONE episode. As Comrade Shvonder said, "this is some kind of shame," the level of plausibility and consistency inside this world is negative, which completely destroys the viewer's faith in what is happening and the magic of cinema. The series has not produced anything worthy for several seasons, only endless shocking scenes without a gram of meaning, a total lack of a sense of proportion, relevance and taste, one-sided, straightforward, thin as a sleeper, criticism of the right in the United States. And posters that at least, if not the plot, then at least the epic promised. And in the end, everything was drained into the toilet, a planetary-scale showdown was reduced to a massacre in 2 rooms (albeit one with a rich history) + exit/departure 🛫 to the beach. It was an ingenious decision on the part of Starlight (who hadn't shone with intelligence right from the first episode of the first season) and had no idea that Deep had been impeached in the water. How the local version of the black canary in a cassock was killed, I can't imagine why his scream didn't just knock out this gag? Physics has hung up again, it's not normal for her, she's already used to it. Bucher's line would even be logical if literally in the same episode they hadn't shown another option that had a chance of success and wasn't genocide, but the other option was to eat croissants... (Bucher's personal canary's refusal of Singer's offer is the height of moronism, he literally would have had a huge impact on all issues regarding supers including their fates, starting with Starlight, what if the president, who was apparently taken almost from the homelander's personal basement, decides that all supers are a threat and something needs to be done about them? Apparently, Huey is not able to think about the future at all and calculate the risks for the people closest to him... In short, I wanted to shout at the screen: "Hire an administrator for your video rental and go run the whole bureau, gifted..." Marie Moreau was sent to the refrigerator, oh, sorry, this is another series, but no, wait, it's also in the refrigerator, but it's even dumber, because she wasn't even used. WHY did she appear in this series, why was she inserted, so that what? For her to say: "Hi, I'm here for now"? Yes, against this background, the finale of game of thrones is a masterpiece of completeness, character arches and a triumph of logic, I never thought I would write like this... The showrunner is an example of mediocrity from the house of weights and measures, against this background, it even became a shame for the showrunners of Game of thrones...

@Nog: maybe I'm not expressing a popular opinion here, but the season really came to me, I saw that many people fucked up the finale and the ratings were low, and I was waiting for cal, but it turned out very well. At least it's better than the final of the SD, for me.

I'm glad to see the abyss drain, he's still the most rotten character in the universe, and I loved him for that, but I also raged a lot.

Homelander also liked how they beat him, how quickly they brought him down from heaven to earth. It's funny that he wanted to escape while still having superpowers. A coward and a lonely boy, his death also caused many different emotions, from pity to satisfaction. Starr made a very incredible character. It's a pity to say goodbye to him.

And of course it's a pity that the Frenchman's chocolate still killed the Terror. The dog is said to have died in real life🥲

In short, I won't call this finale a masterpiece, but it's clearly not some kind of shit, as everyone writes. It's good and strong. Are you giving Ashley a second term as president

The moment when the fake plums that were at the beginning of the week turned out to be many times better than this garbage 😭😭
Five seasons will lead to the fact that the Homelander will fail, biting before the season for unrealistic destruction, and as a result, a mini-fight in the oval office and regular jokes about Kripke's dicks. What was the point of V1 at all?. Once again, the Homelander, who has unrealistic abilities, stands in front of the boys and waits. Well, as they say, "It's what clara would have wanted"

Not as terrible as the ending of the IP, but very weak. The season was a disappointment, we had to finish in third place.

Is this the final? And that's what the budget went for? What about how the characters in 1 room kicked each other? The whole series has been warming us up that now the Homelander will go like a cuckoo and start creating trash, well, wait a little longer, but in the end? He didn't even kill anyone in the finale. The comic can be criticized for a lot of things, but the final clash of Butcher, Homelander and Noir was really cool, but what about here? Was there a budget for a case of beer? Is that why it's so small-scale?
Kripke promised that there would be many deaths, and as a result, only Frenchie and Butcher, whose death was obvious, left the positive characters. Even fucking Sage was given a happy ending.
The characters from gen B also didn't affect anything in the end.
Kripke, with his satire on Trump, which killed the plot, should be kicked out of his job as a screenwriter for such an ending.
Well, the fact that Butcher has finally moved is also not impressive, he has been swinging back and forth like a pendulum for the last 2 seasons, now he wants to kill all the supers, now he doesn't want to. It seems like he didn't want to in the last episode, now he wants to again. The same as a Soldier, whose drain is generally a disgrace.
What a mediocrity.

Well, the victory over Homelander did happen. And quite simple, I would say.

The only moment in the episode that I can really call great is that Ryan decided to start his life away from his "dads."

The moment when Butcher was standing over John's body was very beautifully musically framed - that disturbing music that usually appeared during Homelander's breakdowns, gradually turning into a sad and melancholic melody, as if describing Butcher's condition at that moment (John is killed, what is his purpose in life now?). And, at the same time, it shows that these two are literally two sides of the same coin.

It's a pity that we finally merged. There was hope for a bright ending at least (the season was frankly a bit boring), but so many dumb decisions and moves. Sometimes even incomprehensible ones.

Why this ambush at the White House? How stupidly the final battle was filmed... at first, the Homelander easily fights back, and then just freezes and watches (!!!) as his strength is taken away.

It was a very strange decision not to punish a Homelander, leaving him to live as a mere mortal. In an ideal ending, he hangs himself a couple of days after the fight.

Working Time also raises questions, but most likely Amazon will just launch new series in the Universe. There is no other explanation for this, because Butcher was right in the dialogue before his death.

The team started with vivid satire and maximum plausibility, and ended with some cliches. Sadly.

Who has read the original source? How close was it?

@antons: very far away. In the comic, in principle, the ending is much bigger, there is a Homelander with an army of supers seizing the white house, then the boys come with the US army and there is a twist that most of the Homelander's atrocities were not committed by him, but by Black Noir, who is his clone, and he kills him. After that, Butcher and the US Army finish off Noir. Then Butcher goes like a cuckoo and decides to put out all the supers, including the boys (who also injected themselves with vi). He kills Frenchy, MM, and Kimiko, and Huey kills him. As a result, of the main Persians, only Huey, Asterisk and Underwater survive (which is generally different in the comics). Well, that's in general terms.

As I mentioned above (and always have), the raft twist with Noir is the best thing in the comic (okay, and the ending was much crazier, but the whole gang rape comic is like that). But the series, moving away from the comic, gave enough growth to many characters and characters.

And this is the ending? Is this "you're just freaking out about the ending"? And from what, exactly? From the fact that everything was shot as if by YouTubers with a budget of a pack of Doshirak? Okay, two packs.

A feeling of incredible boredom and sterility. It's hard to come up with a more crumpled and dreary ending. At the moment of the final fight with Homelander, the feeling "damn, but in the third season the mix was much cooler." There were some complaints there, too, but the fight on the Heroin with Butcher and the Soldier looked a hundred times more cheerful. This is not what you expect. There is no scope. Zero surprises and "these are the twists." The hope was that Home would start cutting out hundreds of people when the conversation turned to heretics, but we can't have anything cool here, right?)) All the coolness remained in the interview with the showrunner, and on the posters. I'll give it my due, it was nice to watch Home grovel, having lost his strength, but it was as if they hadn't put the squeeze on him either. Five seasons for this?... Well, thanks, che.

A soldier? Merged. Characters from Generation V? It's a stupid cameo that doesn't affect the plot in any way. I sympathize with those who watched the two seasons and thought it would somehow affect the main series. Death of a Submariner? As ridiculous as possible. The series seems to be famous for its tin, well, turn around somehow, let it be torn apart or something, or else a tentacle through your mouth, seriously??? And the fight was ridiculous, they waved their fists for two minutes.

Perhaps the last one is absolutely Butcher's reversal, because there's still half an hour left before the end of the episode. "Oi, my dog died, and my adopted son told me to fuck off, okay, I'm going to wet all the soups." It's just that the elegant Roskomnadzor was done by Huey's hands, because there weren't enough eggs himself. Imho, it should have been brought more smoothly to the fact that he decided to kill all superheroes altogether. His goal was to kill Homelander and avenge his wife, and he achieved it. That's it, Finita. And the supers are being bred in laboratories, but they are scattered all over the world.. You'll kill those who are currently active, OK, but that won't stop corporations from bringing out new ones, and so do businessmen and scientists who are ordinary people. Or am I missing something? :/

In general, it's not just bad, it's bad. It's just "no way." The notorious 5/10, in a couple of months I'll forget what happened here. The first and second seasons will always remain in the heart. There was really a tin, there was conflict, tension, it was even better relieved. We saved on the finale, but at least we didn't leak it.

PS. The death of the dog caused the most feelings during the season. Especially considering that she died six months ago (
PS2. Memes are the only good thing I found for myself. "This is what Clara would like." + Today, people started joking about "Scorched Earth? Rather, the soil is medium-rare."

As for Butcher, the eyeliner is shit, but the fact that he planned to kill all the supers is a leitmotif that he never stopped chasing, it's just that it's shown through the ass, it's just that he basically shouldn't be with the "boys", well, everything was just done for the sake of Huey's shot, it's Lenny, but I was just too lazy to figure out for myself how it should have been in order for it to work...

And then there's a worldwide genocide, baby, but without the acting supers.

@ras_doctor: I agree, I didn't expect some incredible epic from the ending. In my opinion, the series lost its tension after the third season, when the authors tried to carefully follow the logic of the characters and lore. Then they switched to pure fan service, giving up on everything, so I didn't have high expectations. The ending turned out to be quite normal, the Homelander died in the finale, and I'm glad of that.

The only thing I didn't like was Butcher's death. I imagined it differently, and not that his own kid would kill him, even under the pretext of infecting all the supers with a virus. That's not the most convincing motive.

I also don't quite understand the moment with Ryan. The guy decided to start life with a clean slate and did not want to live with Butcher, considering him a bad person. But then he followed Marvin, even though Marvin seems to have as many sins as Butcher.

Kripke did it like the Supernatural: when you introduce a hero who is practically invulnerable and as powerful as possible, you automatically subscribe to some kind of improbable battle between God and a mere mortal. Therefore, the finale is without surprises. Perhaps this is better than the pointless wanderings of the characters for 1-3 seasons.

I don't really understand the whole hating for the finals. Yes, it's not wow, but compared to the previous three or four episodes, it's a pretty normal series.

All the main lines were closed: Ashley, Stan Edgar, Ryan, and the Boys themselves - they were all more or less dismantled and somehow closed. The issue with the bad supers has also been resolved. Gen V wasn't particularly interested in the spin-off, so I don't care about their fate.

Overall, the season was a bit weak, that's right. But I can't call the ending shit. It's really better than what was in the finales of GOT and the original Dexter wound.

The series, in my opinion, could have been safely packed into three seasons - and it would have been much cooler. Especially if the same money for five seasons was thrown at three. It would have been a really high-quality project. And so, well, the finale is more or less normal, but the last episodes before it were a bit hard to watch.

Unfortunately, the mega-bomb that we were promised all the time in the finale didn't happen, but the blood, meat, guts, and action that we loved so much about the series did. The first and second seasons were like a breath of fresh air, a look at the supers from the other side, and not the boring Marvel. Then we deviated more into the characters, but that was cool too, we waited for every episode. This season has passed a lot from beginning to end, but maybe someday there will be time to review the entire series in one gulp from beginning to end and the emotions will be different, but so far there are mixed feelings from the finale.

Thanks to the series for its vivid images and good characters (Home, Soldier Ackles, Deep in his stupidity, Edgar, cynical mu*ak Butcher, Kimiko, and even kind Huey), but the series went from a good parody (deconstruction) of superheroics to a moment when it became a parody of American politics. Recent seasons have not raised the stakes in any way, they have been dragging their feet, chattering and pacing from side to side. Everything that looked new at the beginning (matyuki through the word, porn references and rare "meat") We see it all the way to the end, but loving the series for it is such a thing. At least thanks for some of the catchy emotional moments before the last episode, thanks to the actors who played great.

Still, I expected Butcher to pull the trigger. And Ryan will leave his powers (because they are innate) and survive the virus, becoming the only real superman. But spinoffs won't sell themselves that easily, apparently there are plans for those that follow the plot of the series.

Rest in peace Terror, both an on-screen and a real doggie actor 😥

I'll mention one more small point. Fan theories were a thousand times more interesting than what was eventually shown.
1) Theory- Noir had his tongue torn off or replaced with someone else. A TV series? Just "he's in character"
2) The theory is that a Homelander is manipulated by a Saint, sending visions to him and pursuing his own selfish goals. It sounded pretty realistic, because this character didn't exist before, and then Home started catching glitches. A TV series? There's no connection at all, just a coincidence.
3) Theory- the characters of "Generation V" will participate in the battle with Homelander. Given that Mary can manipulate blood, it was thought that she would resurrect someone or affect the drug in the Homelander's blood. A TV series? A five-minute cameo and zero real involvement in the plot))))
4) Theory- Maeve will appear in the last season. Well, there's not much to say here, because she was deprived of her powers and in fact she has nothing to do, but as a cameo they could have shown themselves.
5) A lot of theories about the role of the Soldier, everything turned out to be wrong, the old man went to bed and did not even participate in the finale

I won't touch on Home's death itself. There were a lot of "wishlist", to the point that he would have been torn apart by an angry crowd. I'm just going to share a little fan creativity, where there's more epic and atmospheric in a minute than in the entire last season.:

Well, didn't the movie work out when only the last 2 episodes got out? The series has consistently maintained high ratings, as shown by absolutely all platforms.
I think this just shows how big a fan community can be, which is already living its life generating its own individual scenarios) It just still has nothing to do with the screenwriters. Yes, the finale could have been more epic, you can't argue, but the bigger the community, the harder it is to please, especially in a topic like the finale.

Is that what the series was all about?
The series that made fun of everything that was in superheroics ended the way all superheroics ends. The series couldn't surprise me at all.

I was already hoping that maybe if in the final shots, another high-speed super blows up Annie by the road, then this will somehow brighten up the series, and the series will wrap up well. But even that wasn't the case.

Well, for example, in the battle with Homelander, it turns out that Cypher fucked up our gang and she still had her powers and this was some kind of her plan. That would be a twist, just a twist. Or do screenwriters consider their audience to be dumb and unable to digest a complex twist?

Generation V just got the fuck leaked. It's just a failure from Amazon.
Butcher was leaked, purely to state that the "heroes" also died in the last episode. This whole line lasts 5-7 minutes.

In all this, I only feel sorry for Terror.

@Paramelion: Even if they had, as in this meme, maybe it would have turned out better.

"In the finale of Boys, it will be revealed that Huey is actually a patient at a psychiatric clinic where he is being treated by Dr. John and Billy the nurse. Huey is in love with nurse Annie from another shift and calls all the other patients and visitors "super." He was admitted to the clinic after a severe mental injury.: his girlfriend was hit by a car, and Huey himself is convinced that it was a superhero with super speed.

Dr. John, by the way, is lactose intolerant."

A disgusting ending, 0 drama, a shameful final battle, the boys' story armor is 9999lvl, the power of love and friendship kills the main character, the remaining supers do not try to do anything to the boys after killing Homelander. 1/10. It was clear that they wanted to finish the series as soon as possible, and it didn't matter what quality the ending would be.

@Paramelion: The series has shown more than once how a Homelander kills any superman with laser vision, and for them, 100% of the time, it was lethal, well, except maybe Soldier Boy and Maeve for obvious reasons. Why would Butcher be immune to lasers? He shot at it so many times, but there wasn't a scratch on it, although he could have split and quartered it in a second, like Kimiko in episode 1. I remember the laser grid from Resident Evil... That's what a laser should do. In addition, given the strength of the Homelander, he could kill supers with 1 hit without V1, which was shown earlier. The butcher should have died with 1-2 strokes at most. The answer is simple, the script underestimated the strength of one in favor of the other in order to finish this series faster.

Somehow, I don't even know. The soldier was simply leaked, it would have been better to go where he wanted, heroes from Generation Vi appeared, but not to say that the episode needed them. I still haven't watched the second season, and after the cancellation of the series, it's like it's not necessary anymore, although in the third season it would be possible to show the world after the Boys finale.

I don't feel sorry for Deep, the ending of Homelander and Butcher was obvious, although I imagined the fight in the Oval differently, on a larger scale, more brutally. In some episode, the third or something. A Homelander glitch was shown where he cuts out crowds of people with a laser from his eyes, but this season he seems to be holding back in everything. They took the guy by surprise, became dumber and constantly waits for something.

One good thing is that Huey has actually found a new job, and that's not all.

P.S. It's time to finally read the original comic, since the series is over.

Seriously?! And this is the final episode of the entire series! Absolutely no emotions, we were so looking forward to this episode, but we got this. Of course, everyone was already expecting this kind of shit, but not that much! We should have fired the scriptwriters and replaced them with fans who had crazy ideas for the ending.
The only thing I liked about it was that Butcher killed Homelander, that's ALL. Well, the death of Depth.
I'm happy for Huey and Annie, but it's a little vanilla.
Marie, Emma, and Jordan both showed up and left. Although in the last episode, Annie asked them for help, and in the end they got a job as taxi drivers.
I can't call the finale a failure, but there's not even a sense of mega-epicness. Rather, the ending is just average. It causes almost no emotions, largely because the lead-up to the denouement was weak.

The Homelander got what he deserved, presenting himself in front of everyone in his real pathetic form. Everything seems logical, but perhaps it was worth not killing him or killing him not immediately, but leaving him exhausted so that he would humiliate himself and do about what he promised Butcher, groveling before anyone.

Butcher's death at the hands of Huey seems to be a dramatic moment, but it also somehow didn't touch much. This can be said about all lines. For me, it wasn't the finale that failed Kripke, but rather almost everything that preceded it this season. Putting the ending of the Boys on a par with Game of Thrones, Stranger Things and Dexter (twice) I wouldn't. Still, everything is better here.

Judging by the strength of Homelander in the last episode, he was given a syringe of heroin instead of V1, otherwise I can't explain why Butcher was on the same level of strength with him, and if Butcher was always so strong, then why didn't he just go and rip up Home like Newman didn't have V1 yet
Now, after the imminent failure of Boys Mexico, we are waiting for the sixth season of Boys, where Stan Edgar resurrects Homelander so that he can continue to make meme faces and bring money to Amazon.

The budget of the series is 0 rubles 0 kopecks.
In all the seasons, there has not been a single large-scale disaster - at least to freeze a river, arrange an earthquake, or strike lightning from the sky.
Even Butcher wasn't torn apart from the inside by a self-aware tangle of tentacles.
It's literally the ending of "this is how Season 3 would have ended if Ryan hadn't pushed Grandpa."

Also, Butcher, without a goal, a son and a dog, literally went to kill himself about Huey. It was obvious that he didn't need any virus, even if he released it, he still wouldn't know what to do next.
Sadly. They could at least show that he and Becca ended up meeting in heaven.

In an ideal world, the boys would have some kind of multi-layered master plan that would exploit all the vulnerabilities of Homelander and include things from each of the five seasons. But in the end, Sage just came up with a formula for a Solo Fight in one episode and... that's it. Getting into the White House is easier than ever, using the "Fuck" tunnel. But the enemies know about it, so they're waiting for us there... people with machine guns. Wow. Well, the good thing is that the Homelander does not fly away from the location during the battle in order to save the Amazon budget. And the virus against soups, as the main theme of the fifth season of Boys and the entire Gen V series, led to nothing.

As far as that's all... without imagination? It was as if they were looking for the shortest and most effective way to end the series rather than the most interesting one.

Homelander's phrase "I could have killed you so many times, but I didn't kill you" describes the entire series in essence. From the first season to the finale of the fifth, the Homelander is becoming less and less of a threat to the boys. He comes to the same places where they are, waits for them in ambush, etc., but always lets them go for the sake of continuing the plot. Unfortunately, it is impossible to believe in the reality of what is happening. The man has such power that he killed the president of the United States and did not face any consequences. Since he is omnipotent, he can destroy anyone, it is logical that in the end he would surround himself with an army of soups, through which the current composition of the boys would not have passed in any way. But in the end, they show us a couple of people with machine guns in a closed room and two soups that flew off without a chance. The scale of what is happening is completely fucked up. It's also funny that the whole series teases the final departure of the Homelander cuckoo with sad consequences for ordinary people, but in the end, even in the last episodes, everything was limited to the fact that he was filming a fucking commercial and depends on the opinion of the focus group. For me, boys became a story about how the most terrifying villain of the series turned into one of the most pathetic gangsters. I was only pleased with the way the scene of his death was set up, he died like a real nobody.

@MadaraSolo: I also don't understand why, with such unlimited power, the Homelander with his megalomania and God complex continues to please focus groups. Perhaps we can somehow try to justify this through psychology, that he longs for love from everyone and everything, but it seems to me that it would be much more interesting for the plot if, at least in the final episodes, he still caught a quirk and distributed the action. It's amazing that the cruelest thing he did was actually in the very first season, and the less he was controlled by Vaught, the less tin he committed (although it would seem the opposite should be the case)…

@MadaraSolo: And there is no army of supers.
In the first season, they tell us 200 supers per America, 1 per city.
Then they show 50 pieces in an orphanage, 100 pieces in a university, and 50 pieces dying in a nursing home.
A total of 400.
Of these, about 100 were killed in 5 seasons of Boys and 2 seasons of Vi.
That leaves 300.
Then we're postulated that a strong, handsome super like Maeve is a rarity, mostly suckers like throwing up acid and burning themselves, eating the earth and shitting the earth. Let it be 30% normal.
That leaves 100 people. Some of them are very situational like a techno-king - if it weren't for the millions of dollars of 11 generations of his family, then his super-perception would not be particularly useful.
I remind you, in the vault where B1 was stolen from the safe, they say that Butcher and MM know a little more than 10 strong dudes who can break down a wall.

There are 20-25 literate dangerous supers of the old/new Noir level all over the world.
Half of whom will kill each other for a tasty position or their director will fail so that the 2nd Homelander does not grow out of them.
In general, as for the fight in the White House, after Butcher's death, there will statistically be 10-15 really dangerous capable supers. There was no army, and there never will be.

What can I say, the series came out as average as expected. I can't say that it was completely bad, but it wasn't good either. Lately, I've often heard the theory that Homelander would end up with a massacre, but unfortunately it didn't materialize. Personally, it seems to me that this was not enough. Home's line ended as expected, he was always a pathetic psycho with just a lot of strength, and as soon as he lost them, it's not surprising, he was ready to suck on everyone at once, as long as they didn't kill him, and the fact that it was all live is generally the icing on the cake. Deep also died quite predictably and ironically, I liked it. And thank God that Starlight, at least in the last episode, remembered that she can not only wave her fists, but also shine a light. Sage well... Just a useless character, fuck her, she was added incomprehensibly from the word at all, and she also ran out of arc just to merge. Another disadvantage for me is how Butcher's story ended. Like I knew he was going to die, but I expected more tin.
Well, in conclusion, the ending turned out to be too sugary for me, and if Kripke hadn't moved away from the comic so much, it would have turned out better.

Well, everything turned out to be quite predictable, except that instead of the soldier, who was completely miserably merged in the last episode, Homa deprived Kimiko of her abilities.
In this episode, the number of incompetently merged Persians has broken through all imaginable and inconceivable limits, I don't even want to say anything about it.
On the positive side, it's only Ashley and Ryan, and Huey, who symbolically returned to where it all started.
It's a pity that Kripke, in his attempts to make fun of everything, completely forgot that the Boys are not only about sarcasm and satire, but also about the most powerful plot, characters and meaning, which, alas, is not observed in the last season.

A dumb ending. There are a lot of inconsistencies, holes, and stupid decisions. There is no drama at all (it is there, but it is not felt). The plums were really better and more interesting.

The only advantage is the Homelander's death. They showed it correctly, I was afraid they wouldn't be able to. The character got the ending he deserved.

The rest is a complete mess. Remember the posters where the Homelander in space looks at the burning Earth, and Butcher walks through the ruins of the Vaught Tower. Where is it? We were deceived in a despicable way.

As a result, the series and the entire season were drained, unfortunately.

I thought it would be bad, but on the whole it suddenly turned out to be decent. However, I couldn't help but think that the final season was supposed to be a movie. A big, expensive Amazon movie, maybe even in a movie, because the last seven hours of pouring from empty to empty were filled with a broth-concentrated finale.

Most of the questions were answered. In general, I still didn't understand the fuck to invent Kimiko's power if there was a Soldier (apparently, to freeze Ackles for another spin-off), and also the fuck to merge Gen V so stupidly (They say there was a plan for season 3, but Amazon canceled everything, so they went to Canada anyway). It was also kind of ridiculous that Terror died at exactly the right moment, but considering that the real dog actor also died after filming, it even turned out to be somehow poetic.
The other branches... Well, OK? The fact that Homelander and Butcher will fight without abilities in the end was not predicted, it seems, only lazy, Ryan also came back to help, Deep was predictably torn apart by sharks, Sage got her peace, Ashley got a character arc and a funny ending, Huey and Annie got the expected happy ending... In general, everything is VERY predictable, but not bad. Personally, for me, at least MM should have left for the drama (in the scene with bullets in the corridor from the ceiling, because he and Kimiko stupidly hugged each other out of there, I can't believe that he escaped the bullets at all...although even when he gets shot by Huey in the episode with the hospital, she also magically evaporates).
I'm glad that the final confrontation was between Huey and Butcher, it seemed to be more personal than a big fight, it was a good decision, and even in the hall of Seven. And the fact that Butcher finally changed his mind but decided not to tell Huey is also a good decision.

And Kripke suddenly remembers that Huey has wit and technical knowledge, wow! I've hardly thought about it since the first season!
I'm incredibly pleased with the finale, and I hope Amazon won't milk the Boys until they're exhausted.
The way the last two seasons have been going, I expected a MUCH dumber ending.

Congratulations to everyone, it's over. And what about the final episode? She's normal (I was expecting a complete disaster, maybe that's why it was normal), but unfortunately, the season itself can't be called "wow": more or less episodes were from 1 to 3, and then a dream (that is, the situation is like with season 4: 8 episodes, but at least some-that is, 3-4 ideas). What didn't I like? Ryan's line is, of course, a joke: the Persian disappeared at the moment for about 3-4 episodes and burst into the very center in the final episode (yes, I understood that since they remembered about him, he had to do something, but it still looked ridiculous). Throwing the Soldier back and forth because of what Clara wanted, and then freezing him again (I wonder if this is done for his future series? Do the marketing people understand that most people won't want to watch this after the not-so-great final season of the main series? No? Well, they know better. I think the series will last, God willing, 2 seasons, like "Gen V", and flop). The character Sage... no comment. The smartest person (in words rather than deeds) from season 4 fucked up in this and is no longer the smartest - both metaphorically and literally after the final episode... haha (most of all, it's a shame for the actress, who is more or less trying, but no luck with the Persian, I hope she will play somewhere else, but better than the prescribed character). The guys from Gen V, the series that I abandoned after the first season because I was no longer interested in watching anymore (considering how others appeared in the fourth season, I didn't want to watch the second season), but the blood woman/blood magician who was predicted to kill Homelander, well, or at least she seriously wounds him so that the same Butcher can finish him off — first they just send her to fuck, and then they instruct her to bring people to Canada (what prevented the blood woman from staying and helping while her friends transported civilians is unclear). I would also like to say a little bit about the promotional materials for this season, on which the arch-episode takes place: A Homelander in space looks at the exploding Earth. As a result, there is nothing like this in the series, because, most likely, the "geniuses" on Amazon have squeezed money for their most flagship project ("Invulnerable," by the way, is also waving a pen), but for "Rings of Power," which, according to my feelings, most people don't give a fuck after the first season, they are his we extended it for another 2 (so to speak, we "pour it in" out of spite, otherwise I can't explain it). I could also have said about the arch of immortality or the virus, but I was already confused, but in short: why was it all necessary if, as a result, Kimiko, having received the powers of a Soldier, deprives Home of all his powers, and as a result, what does he have immortality, what does not... in general, meh. To summarize: the series was supposed to end on season 3, but alas, 2 more came out (thanks for not 15, as with the other Kripke project), and because of this, we got another series that took off loudly and landed very well, sadly. I'll review the entire series at my leisure, give it a final assessment, and close this part of my life. It's funny that I left my first review on this site for the 4th season of "Boys", and now I'm writing a review for the finale. Thank you if you read all this writing to the end, share your opinion about the series, but for now — bye.

Dear diary, I can't find the words to describe the pain and humiliation I felt when watching this shit. It's a shame. I've never been a fan of superheroics, but even I understand that this is some kind of pi$dec. I can't imagine what's going on in the hearts of the fans. The finales of "IP" and "OSD" could still be somehow justified by the impotence of the creators. But here, it's a deliberate spit at the fans. Kripke turned out to be, in fact, even more Trump than Trump himself. Why is he like that, why? I don't think he'll get off with a simple hit. It would be better for him to hire more guards and sit in a bunker for six months until everything settles down.

The final episode itself... Not so bad? Well, for the most part. And if it hadn't been preceded by several seasons (especially the entire 5th!) Kripe's boob-and-pussy leftist nonsense with its "deep satire" (even in the finale, he couldn't resist killing the "Mask") - then this finale would even be... Did it work? The only problem is that the show has become such a shitty parody of itself that no one gives a shit about it, the ending, or death. Even Frenchy's funeral had to be vulgarized with a tirade about anuses. YES, WE GET IT, KRIPKE. And it would be fine if there was one joke in the spirit of Frenchy, "you're my family, because I've seen all your assholes, but what could be closer?", but no, you need to repeat it 20 times, and then clarify what he drew on the will. And such moments completely ruined even the positive things that can be isolated in rare good minutes. I'm surprised Butcher's funeral didn't cause the same kind of vulgarity-it was even a little touching, which Butcher, unlike Frenchy, definitely didn't deserve. And I'm not even saying that they dug Frenchy up somewhere in the middle of nowhere with a wooden cross
. P.S. I especially yelled at how they convinced us for 2 seasons of Gen V that this was the most important show, that it would play a role, that Marie Moreau was the strongest Homelander-level soups, blah blah, and then the show They closed it down, and Marie was put in a truck to take the refugees out of the show. The same goes for the virus - for a total of almost 4 seasons for 2 series, the virus was a McGuffin, and then... he was no longer needed, they fucked up "Kimiko the Soldier" for an episode, and that's it. And in fact, it was a useless plot waste of time, which served only as a "bone of contention" for Butcher's death, but it could have been dispensed with, and certainly not wasting so much time on the plot of the virus.
It's a pity that the channel's management is as beaten up as Kripke, and the show has become a psychotherapy room for their sick hatred of the government. A parody of a parody.

The final episode doesn't bring out this absolutely mediocre season. I'm too lazy to even analyze this nonsense: the audience's theories were much cooler. The ending in the comics is ten times bigger than a 5-minute fight in the Oval Office. Kripke finally slipped into a banal agenda — the Homelander's speech was far-fetched for the sake of another jab at Trump and Musk (sent to space??)

The denouement of Butcher and Huey's relationship generally looks like a hasty attempt to close plot holes. It feels like the showrunner just ticked off a notebook: Sage was leaked, a check; Kimmico was given strength, a check; Homelander was killed, a check; Depth, as the last of the seven, was killed in 2 minutes, a check; the CEO was returned to Wout (probably for spin—offs), a check; Huey was given a happy end check. Oh yes, Butcher!.. Well, let's come up with something on the knee.

The series itself is more like a passing episode from the middle of the season, but not an epic finale. Our team's fight against the villains is a joke to the chickens. The depth was drained in five strokes and a push into the sea, the preacher was gagged in a couple of minutes, and the Homelander was simply stomped in three minutes in one office, without even changing the location! Yes, in "Heroigasm" Makhach looked a hundred times bigger.

The series itself is great, I've watched it every year since the first season. It's a shame for the finale, in terms of the level of merger for me as a sole proprietor or a sole proprietor. It's just very sad and hurtful.

A lot has been said, most of it even without insulting the showrunner. On my own, I want to say that the series was not the most boring, but also not worked out. It's too corny. Personally, my opinion is that the Homelander didn't deserve to die, the punishment is too simple. I would have left him alive, without strength, without influence, lonely and worthless. So that he could live in his 2x2 cell and slowly die of impotence.

Well, I'm happy for Sage. She was so genuinely happy about the lack of superintelligence)) Finally, the girl will live peacefully))

Disappointment.
Welcome to the club of merged finals, Boys
It was hoped that Kripke would still remember what this series was about and show a realistic ending, where Homelander simply tears up Butcher and Co., begins to destroy entire cities, search for "infidels"
No, catch jokes about anuses, cocks, a quick fight with Homies in the White House

Butcher was upset that Ryan rejected him, Terror died, and decided it was time to do the RCN.. However, he didn't have the guts, so he had to be killed by Huey.

Today we are gathered here to remember the Boys - a series that challenged superheroics, held up well for 3 seasons, but in the end turned into something it struggled with.

@vk502447: There was a funny joke that Kripke saved money for 7 episodes for the finale, and apparently spent it all on jokes about the anus.
Well, there's nothing to say, to be honest. Everything was said for me above.

I liked Butcher's ending. The whole series showed that he knows how to live only with regrets about the death of his closest people, of whom, in fact, he had only two: Becca and Lenny, and then Hugh at the end, and that's because he resembles his brother. Butcher had already shown mercy and lied to Hugh that he would have pressed the button anyway so that the kid's conscience wouldn't torment him.

Homelander was leaked. They said all season that he was a rag without his powers (and he wasn't afraid with his powers anymore), which he eventually turned out to be, but it was an idiotic scenario, because throughout the series we were led to believe that the constantly restrained Homelander would simply demolish the tower and start shredding everything. on his way, Butcher will not be so despondently begging for mercy.
It's a pity, in the first season, he just rattled the audience's nerves at the moment when he asked Frenchy about the truck. As an antagonist, he deserved a better plot ending.

Even the usual superhero series don't end that way...
Even the most ridiculous and stupid outcome would be better than this.
Yes, it's all Butcher's dog's dream.

We have a secret episode 9 waiting for us, with a real ending, you've been fucked!

And actually, of course, it's a pity that the series ended so stylishly, but what did we expect in 2k26?

@babydogma: Yes, I would say that on the contrary, it ended worse than Marvel, much worse. At least there was scale and epic, but there was a fight that was inferior even to the CW series.

Ironically, the Marvels were ridiculed, and in the end they ended up 10 times worse than them, but useless spin-offs began to be stamped one after another.

P.S. Interest in the franchise died with such a mediocre ending, I don't know who will continue to be interested in watching the "universe".

The most vanilla ending for housewives turned out.
Just two episodes ago, they wanted to kill all the supers and were preparing for this by attaching a virus to the scene, the ladies prepared their boys that they did not want to live without them and were ready to die, because the great goal is more important. And healthy again! Bang, Butcher, I didn't want this, it just happened, look, I have balls, but I still didn't want to kill you (and I, stupid bastard, don't understand that if there was one filled with power and permissiveness, then there will definitely be another, because the way well-trodden, but power corrupts, history is cyclical) (c) a whiner and good-for-nothing Huey, who for some reason was suddenly offered a job by the President.
How they went to the White House is a cringe, of course. Only Ashley smiled, and the gun went off just in time. The battle in the Oval is as simplified and flattened as possible, but at least it's a fight that's been missing all this season. Ryan showed up, although I was glad of it, but where did he get so much strength against baty, if in the first episodes of the season it was only thanks to the will and kindness, I'm not afraid of this word, that he stayed alive? About the fact that both Home, Butcher, and Ryan were supposed to take off, they wrote above. But here again, miracles, Home is not omnipotent, immortal and the coolest super, but purely at the end of the top 5 dozen)))
And yes, if you really want to make a real happy ending in the style of Boys, then Butcher's plan must be implemented: all the supers will die, he will live with Ryan or without and search for his meaning of life (which is a hundredfold more difficult), Huey inconsolably cries for his girlfriend, as in the first episode of season 1, MM is also variable (from death to what was shown, I don't care at all).
But no, we will leave as many loopholes as possible to milk this "cow" to victory. And we will kill purely 2 antagonists , but we would like blood and bones .
God, it's a shame to end the series so badly. But how much pathos revolved around the series. It ended as a regular budget procedure, although there is a much smaller budget.

Was the ending okay? There aren't even any special complaints. Predictable and banal? Yes. But for the disgrace that this series has become, these are not even disadvantages anymore.
And the whole season could be safely shortened to a slightly extended one episode. Anyway, Homelander's "immortality" didn't really make any sense. After all, they couldn't defeat him before that.
To hell with this franchise, its spinoffs, and so on :)

the finale is as sterile and toothless as possible, without a drop of creativity; throughout the season, it was clear how the scriptwriters, in addition to having no balls, had already run out of imagination and they just pulled as hard as they could, but there was a small hope that at least for the final episode they retained their fuse and could still rekindle the extinguished flame and give out something interesting, but no... they just pissed on this light and trampled it into the ground; as a result, instead of the welcome fresh sip at the end, the finale feels like a series that has been incapacitated for a couple of seasons and just rotted alive has finally exhausted itself and died, so now you can get rid of the corpse and breathe a sigh of relief - as an audience as well as everyone involved in its creation, because of the lack of ideas and endless self-repetition, it is not difficult to assume that they themselves have long been tired of it; fortunately, at least they did not stretch it for another seven seasons, although with the right desire it was not difficult to make a really interesting and rich story, having met the same time in five, especially considering that's how much we originally planned; well, okay, we have what we have

The series will still remain one of my favorites, although it's sad that literally every next part of the franchise (including Generation V) was worse for me than the previous one.;

1 - 8.5
2 - 8.0
3 - 7.5
vi1 - 7.0
4 - 6.5
vi2 - 6.0
5 - 5.5

I'll review the first two or three seasons with great pleasure, and I'll probably review the others more than once (well, except for the fifth)

It's a shame, but after season 3, the Boys turned into boring shit
. Season 5 is disgusting as the series finale.

I despise the serial balance of power between the characters.
At the beginning of the season, the Homelander beams Kimiko in half, and in this episode he didn't even damage his clothes. The damage from the rays works exclusively on the tentacles, which seem to tear Newman in half, but the heroes are 100% stronger than these tentacles.
The Homelander is able to keep up with Atrain, but is unable to dodge Butcher's attacks or escape.
At the same time, all HL is under the influence of B1, rays to space, incredible power))0
The whole battle of the strongest supers takes place in one office, and there the camera wasn't even hit and the walls weren't broken. What kind of trash is this?
Deepa is killed by marine life. Just a tentacle through and through. how? Bullets don't take a man, but here the fish pierce right through. Where do dozens of inhabitants of the depths spawn from the shore in 1 second? Why is there not the slightest logic at all

The very decision to give Kimiko a Soldier's blast is just nonsense. They came up with it in episode 7, they implemented it there, and already at 8 they killed Homelander. Why shouldn't any regen soup be given an ultimate weapon? In 1 day, the same is done

If you delete line B1, then nothing will change in the plot. You can still kill a Homelander with poison and remove a scalpel in front of the camera.

The Soldier's line is simply shocking. Why was it unfrozen? For the sake of the prequel? Okay
Why did they show us the Vi Generation with absolutely zero impact on the plot? Just to make it happen? Okay

The 5/8 episodes of the season are half-full crap, but the Homelander and the Dip merge in 30 minutes (!!). What's it? Literally, the arcs of the two characters of the first plan are being closed at a rapid pace because well, everything is already final

MM and Ryan didn't like the ending. Generally.
How did MM get together with his ex-wife and what is the reason for this? When was the last time anyone even thought about her?
Why did Ryan stay with MM instead of Zoey?

Naming an unborn child after a former one, even if it's dead, is such a thing. It would have been better if Huey had been named after his father or Butcher.
And the Homelander should have been left to live out his life humiliated, exhausted and forgotten by everyone, for him it is much worse than death.

What the fuck was that? I wouldn't be surprised if they decided to save so much on the budget that they would loop a plot in which a Homelander is blown to death by an Atrain with the words "A ROCKET IS FLYING TOWARDS YOU"…
Eh! This is not the ending I expected. Pichal.

I thought there would be a mochilovo Soldier and a Homelander, but we only got the latter's attempts.

Thank you for Terror, we paid tribute to the memory of the dog.

@shubkin: the series did not stand still, the plot developed quite succinctly until the end of the third season. The problems started when the spin-offs were being developed.

Don't get me wrong, I don't mean that only the right-wingers tore into the ending and the last season, I just had a thought when I read the comments here that a lot of people didn't like the fact that the creators made too many allusions to Trump and the current US government in general. It just seemed to me that initially soups were disguised powers that be, that is, a homelander is the president of the United States / nuclear bomb/military industrial complex. that's why everyone is afraid of him, that's why everything is allowed to him.

It doesn't seem to be the most difficult thought, but perhaps the media literature of this series is lower than I thought.

But yes, my initial comment is not entirely correct.

@kwyjibo42: usually people just watch the series, and they don't look for allusions and references in the series, they just need entertainment and relaxation, and when instead they are shoved with a crooked propaganda about bad people, well, they probably get in a bad mood... Still, they just dream of seeing a parody of stupid right-wingers on TV, it's just the pinnacle of art.
Judging by the comments, there were indeed those who hoped for an adequate ending)
Well, Eric Kripke is not an idiot, by any means. On the contrary, he is a genius. I made money off the people and walked around my penthouse smoking an expensive cigar. Well, or something like that. But the fact that he's a complete fucker, that's right. He fooled the audience, gloated in his public post about how we were all losers for watching this. Amazon and others like him will be promoted, because they bring a lot of money. Season 5 has become the most watched season, with popularity skyrocketing. It's a pity the product is crap, but why try if it brings as good as it does, and requires a minimum of resources and effort?
The tendency to merge the finals is fucked up, but it's unlikely to stop because at first the viewer brings a lot of money for this and every time more and more and in the finale they fuck up. And from the viewer's side, it's difficult to predict failure, especially if the beginning is very good. I didn't doubt for a second that the ending of very strange cases would be bad. Well, the result is exactly the opposite. The boys fill up the piggy bank. So even xs has something to say. I don't give a fuck, maybe sooner or later something will come to these assholes, but it's unlikely.

It's sad to see your once-beloved TV series slipping away. I remember watching the first three seasons in one gulp and falling in love with this show. Now I'm feeling empty and a little disappointed. The ending isn't as bad as that of a sole proprietor or a sole proprietor, it's just too predictable and kind for such a cynical and gloomy universe.
I don't know how it happened, but the first seasons looked much bigger. In the beginning, any super was a threat: he could just swat the heroes like bugs, but now the boys have such armor that it's hard for them to empathize. There are a lot of unnecessary characters, lines that lead nowhere, and they result in a finale in which the conflict is resolved in half an hour. The worst thing is that you don't feel the weight of defeating Homelander. He was supposed to be the final boss, to defeat which the heroes would have to use all the weapons and knowledge accumulated over the previous seasons. As it was, the death of the invisible man at the very beginning felt more epic than the homelander.

Why were the seven of them afraid of Homelander? The three of them just kicked him off, even before Kimiko's annealing! It's just nonsense, incompetent, very incompetent. Such a weak homelander couldn't lead at all, even with the top seven!! What are the words for?: we are waiting for them, Butcher and the team are ready for the arrival. Where are you ready? Did you want to kill two supers with ordinary bullets? Until the last moment, I thought that this was some kind of Doppler incarnated in home and that's why I was so exhausted in battle, because I didn't have his power. And after death, home will appear in front of everyone, as if he had been resurrected and there would be a hint of the second Jesus. And the whole team is already without their superpowers and just lost. Why don't they make any TV series without a happy ending? It is logical that there should be a dystopia. And then it was possible to film the battle with Moreau (Monroe) or whatever it was. They completed everything very poorly, very poorly. Who could even come up with such a stool?

Well, yes, mb was overestimated by many. But from the point of view of the script and the plot lines, the plot is crumpled, although the lines were closed in a hurry, but it was hard and bad. It was possible to remove the dumb jokes from previous episodes and add more screen time to the characters.

But they didn't do that, so the ending is honestly weak. I don't care if you agree.

@Mart1z: He recently starred in a thrash action movie and nothing good came of it. The home is the role of his whole life, and it won't be like that anymore, because it's a once-in-a-lifetime role. The same picture as Harry Potter, Dan will never be able to beat this role.
@Yumikuri: there's a series with him, "Banshee," which seems to be 5 seasons old, if I'm not mistaken, then the series was a bit of a success, but "Boys" is clearly higher
@Yumikuri: initially, the role of his life was Sheriff Lucas Hood) beat the boys, maybe there will be another series.
@skezzylabaf: It just aired on a not-so-popular cable cinemax.

I agree that the Homelander man should have been left alive, but Ryan shouldn't have been exposed to radiation. Then Stan Edgar leads the Vout, then this is the cut with everyone, and the scene is a flash forward after the credits. Ryan, who has grown up, is the new face of the company, his portraits are everywhere, and so on. He comes to visit his dad in solitary confinement with a bag of milk, and he tells him with a completely insane smile that his son has a great future ahead of him. He listens to his son and smiles, there, there, there... Nothing has changed...

As it is, there is no effect from the series... It's over, and it's over, as they say. What's on the other channel?

There have been so many theories for nothing. I was hoping for a dumb ending with Marie Moreau, but it turned out to be even dumber. I hoped that they would let Home live so that he would realize his worthlessness. The pot-bellied Asterisk at the end is not what we expected, but what we deserved.
@lilandra: Well, to be fair, he couldn't be allowed to live, he would have taken the drug again and started over. But his 5 minutes as a human were fun.

I watched the last episode and realized that I did the right thing by abandoning the series after season 3. In general, because it has already become some kind of rule - to start normally, and then, on a wave of popularity, create a game, they think it's necessary to go and just drain the rating for the whole series. I can forgive the same supers, where +- you can cut off the endings of certain arches and assume that the series has ended for a certain season. But for series with an end-to-end story for all seasons, it must initially be written with a good ending in the mind of the creators. Otherwise, it's even worse than an unfinished series - at least there's hope and scope for imagination.

Like many other shows, it clearly wasn't the best. It was obviously not the most dense in the plot.
Many of the characters were "hacked" worse than in the last season of Mayantsev. Believe me, I've seen worse.
Nevertheless, thanks to this series that it was. It was fun, dirty, trashy - in general, everything is as we like it))

What a joke and a cringe have made of homelander. He used to be a dangerous, unstable, unpredictable sociopath who kept the whole series going. Now he's a fool who's been saying things and threatening someone all season. He ended up as a minor villain and a sucker. And in general, this season definitely falls into the top of the biggest drains of TV series ever. It would have been fine if only the finale had been leaked, but somehow they managed to merge all 8 episodes.

When you approach with low expectations, it seems to be normal. It seems to me that everything as a whole was crippled by the abrupt rewriting and closure after the second season of Generation V (It was still very annoying that the characters from there were not used in any way) And considering this, I think that it was not the worst way to finish and there was no unpleasant aftertaste. Therefore, sometime in the future, it will be possible to review, if not completely, your favorite moments with ease.

The Boys' finale is similar to the hype surrounding the battle between Mikhail and Lucifer in Supernatural. They expected the apocalypse, but they got a battle that was limited to one church, where they just hugged in flight. It's like Kripke made fun of his own project in the last episode.

Well, the ending is quite normal, but without the wow effect and if you don't look at some nuances. Of course, they squeezed the money, they wanted more scale, madness and tin, but everything somehow ended very rosily, there weren't enough deaths, the deaths of Home and Butcher were canon, but the same MM and Ryan could also be taken for example.

The season itself is very dull, some kind of filthy beach episode turned out, it was more interesting for me to watch season 4, but here some episodes were quite a burden, and all sorts of cameos are neither hot nor cold.

I didn't like that Home was turned into a complete idiot, he stopped being intimidating, his powers were also weakened, it was unclear when, what and how much he was working, and the eternal Trump references, it even seemed to me that the actor was being smeared with self-tanning for similarity. It used to seem like they were joking about everything, but these 2 seasons are just one party line.

I hope the franchise won't be heavily milked anymore, the spinoff about the soldier will be enough for them, and the eternal conveyor of what was ridiculed all the time will not begin. I love the Boys anyway, the first season is perfect, I'll definitely review it, the actors are great, I hope everyone will still have good roles.

The season is not without its flaws, of course, but it looks much better compared to the finale of Game of Thrones. At least the series won't be remembered for a piece of talk.
You shouldn't have given a Homelander the ability to fly faster than a Train at the beginning of the season in order to make him a brake at the end. The contrast is too striking.
The student body was also not treated in the best way.
But there were also positive moments, it turned out quite cheerfully and cheerfully.

When the fight started in the round room, I thought, wow, another 30 minutes of the episode, we're probably in for something big, because the posters promised destruction on a planetary scale...But after 5 minutes, I saw the Patriot's brains on the carpet and realized that we had been fucked up. To be honest, it is absolutely unclear what the budget of the series is spent on, because it is frankly weaker than the first three seasons.

There's some kind of mockery of the audience about the V generation, there are so many theories around them, so many expectations...And in the end, they're just fucking sent to Canada! Wow, thanks for this crucial plot twist, I feel like an idiot who was forced to eat a lemon for free.

The last few minutes have slightly smoothed out the disgusting feeling of the finale, but the lack of scale, a bunch of merged storylines, disgustingly slow narration and the transformation of a terrifying character into an absolute farce is all that finished the season completely.

Thank you, but I won't review it, I don't see the point in spinoffs and prequels either, it's better to re-read the comic. That's all I wanted to say

Well.....
Why did we watch two seasons of Generation V? To watch a 5-minute cameo in two episodes? Where's Kate, where's that curly-haired kid
Marie Moreau's task is to take 5 people to Canada?
The Boy Soldier was thrown back into the jar, apparently there was not enough budget for Eccles by the end
The Stormfront story arc is also not closed, we've been beating around the bush all season, and in the end we didn't say anything.
The Battle with Homelander: as if Chirogasm looked more impressive.
Starr played it as if the second coming had already happened, this swing from an all-powerful "God" to a worthless little man begging for mercy was well 10 out of 10, it was already disgusting to look at him.
But then again, it's kind of simple, I hit it with a poker and I'm ready.
At some point, it seemed like it was all some kind of prediction or vision that hadn't happened yet and everything would roll back (hello Twilight)
With the Underwater one, they could have beaten him in a different way, he is, of course, a Syktyvkar, but after Homa's words, it was possible to come up with something with him.
Sage went on a roller coaster ride in Orlando.
I liked the scene with Huey and Butcher, as expected
The ending, as I understand it, ridiculed the standard Happy endings.

Terror ❤️
I did not expect an exorbitant scale, the series has always been relatively intimate - that is, the battle almost always took place in some rooms and rarely affected the urban infrastructure outside. How would you like Homie to lose his temper? To fly out into the street and start mowing down ordinary people who didn't believe in him, like a field of wheat? Well, no, this is some kind of banality.
There are more complaints about the fact that the Soldier was absolutely brazenly removed from the plot before the final episode. This is some kind of nonsense, Petrovna, especially his "that's how Clara would like it." I didn't buy this game at all. Otherwise, it's fine. In the last dialogue, the Soldier made another fat reference to the Characters.
The way Homie groveled was generally good. Although I would have let him live - for him to lose all his strength and live like an ordinary person is worse than any death. The fact that he would be walking down the street, absorbing all the contempt of the world for his deeds, completely unable to fight back, would look much more cruel. As it is, they just killed me. Without much zest.

But this series has brought me so much joy and pleasure over the first three seasons that I will always be grateful for its existence.
And to all those who were waiting for some kind of unreal starman and genocide in the finale, I would like to remind you that "Boys" has always been a kind and toothless series about the magic of friendship, and the ending fully corresponds to this spirit.

Well... I'm terrified. Here are the credits. The series starred:
- Two seasons about characters who leave for Canada after 10 minutes of screen time.
- Kripke's promises.
- The power of love that helped Kimiko.
- A soldier left in the fridge.
- A pack of filming spinoffs, for which the series once bantered movie comics.
- Death due to flashbacks.
- The Oscar is for Anthony Starr.

The only advantages were the Homelander's fucking crawling on his knees in front of Butcher, Ryan's height as a character, and the fact that they didn't hesitate to bring down the characters. I really thought that the Depth would pass the arch of redemption, and the priest would defect, but they did even better. And thank the balls that Butcher is dead. If a man had stayed alive after everything, not just with a happy ending, but at least alive, he would have been fucked. In short, the average temperature in the hospital: the entire salary of the scriptwriters went to Ackles' fee for filming the spinoff.

@IAmOlegN: They didn't ask me, but I'll answer, Wi-fi. I expected Homelander's harsh rule, so that he would burn out half the earth, so that the devastation would be shown and a lot of deaths, including among the main characters. So that later Butcher's guys FROM THE V GENERATION would also fight with him (because I don't understand at all why they existed then, it kills me). They robbed him of his strength with this piano in the bushes, made him squeak in fear and speak a monologue about shit and so on, and then they fucked up his skull and blah blah blah. I think the way they put him down is great, it's just that there should have been a normal fight before that. Epic. Not this shit in the room.
Or if you did this shit for two minutes, then you should have made sure that Butcher actually released the virus and all the supers died, and then Huey would have already killed him.
OR AT LEAST RYAN BECAME THE NEW HOMELANDER.

Shortly This is the show where the happy ending should not have been! Everyone's heads should have been flying, not just the villains and the Frenchman. It's completely crazy that they made a slobbery ending where Huey returns to the starting point with a child named after his ex (although even such an ending would be normal if there was a tin before that, BUT NO).

In general, the bottom.

Some kind of stupid flash mob from the scriptwriters: talk about the awesome ending and just shit yourself. And it's not just about how it turned out, but it's probably worth stopping playing with the expectations of the audience.

The end is natural. The bad guy is dead. Both are bad guys.
To be honest, I feel sad after watching it. This series presented a Homelander who was completely blown away by a psychopath, whom I was interested in watching with sadistic pleasure. The actor is wonderful, his facial expressions and emotions are incomparable. It's a pity that everything ended. And it's especially sad that I had to kill a Frenchman for such a happy ending, although I don't see the point in that. As Huey and Starlight rode off into the sunset, so would Kimiko and Frenchy - I would be immensely happy, I think, and many would be happy.

Okay, that wasn't so bad, but considering how ridiculous the whole season turned out to be... I understand this writer's feeling when the finale is already in my head, but how to come to it, well, this "xs" was through the whole fifth season.... It is sad. It's good that the series is always a team effort, so even though the writers made a mistake, the others didn't let them down, so respect to the actors, the musical director and everyone else who carried it on their shoulders and pulled as hard as they could, all the positive emotions are only thanks to them.
Sage was a fool) they only talked about her genius, the only time she really did something was when she helped the Frenchman with calculations and that's it!
I thought it would be hinted that Ryan still had the strength, he didn't become a superman from the drug.
Actually, it would have been a great ending if they had ended up like this for season 3 and not artificially dragging the plot out.

Jesus Christ, what the hell was that? Is this the end of the Boys?
For 5 seasons, the Patriot (Homeland) theme was frozen, but it was merged like this... It's mediocre. In my opinion, these lines at the end about "shit" are generally superfluous, of course, trash played an important role in the series, but this monologue was inappropriate. They wanted to show what a coward he was, but in the end it was a pathetic attempt.
The "V" guys are purely a set, that's where the real laughter is. They traded their faces and left.
The depth was hastily drowned, it was predictable, but it turned out to be too formulaic, and as a character, in fact, he never developed, only selected the timing.
The ending with Butch is probably more complicated, and there are questions, but at least he didn't run off into the sunset with a pink pony. The season started off interesting and gradually began to decline with episode 4. Sorry.
I always try to find something positive in the endings, but here I am disappointed. So many branches are merged and there are opportunities to make an epic battle, to give a decent death to the characters. Blood and bones? It's more like snot and regret. Bucher's face when he killed his enemy expresses all the emotions - disappointment.

another series that started very well ended so badly.
Okay, if at least some pianos had come out in the bushes, we could have had a chat or a discussion, but they turned out to be so mediocre at the end of the series that they made everything as dull and boring as possible, how sad and disappointing all this is.
when you don't expect anything special, you don't read Kripke's bloggers, and you don't monitor all sorts of reddits, it's a pretty tolerable ending. however, the absurdity was enough. the dude made holes in people a hundred times with his lasers, but then for some reason he set the stun mode, periodically switching to another one when it was necessary to cut the tentacles. funny)

mdaaa damn, well, it's actually 🤬
In my opinion, we have a new record holder for the most merged ending in the history of television, well, at least in the 21st century for sure. Daenerys Targaryen is just smoking on the sidelines and giving a standing ovation compared to this mess. The disgrace they did to Homelander is actually the authors of this nonsense, they should be in his place, and the fans should do the same to them with a tire iron. I especially screamed from the moment when Homelander said that Butcher owed him, because he spared him many times. that is, they also created, among other things, themselves They signed off on the fact that the entire plot of the series was completely sewn with white threads. Now I understand and fully share Anthony Starr's indignation at the ending. It's so incompetent to merge the character, the fans deserve more than the most primitive version of the denouement.

The moment when the human breathing of the Homelander was heard, and when he begged on live television, would also be a good idea if I read it in paper, but actor Butcher's acting has been too annoying in recent seasons that Anthony Starr had little to work with.

The epic wasn't enough.
They seemed to laugh at the "Very strange things" that no one was killed, saying the Boys would be a mess ... but the ending turned out to be the same happy ending.
I haven't read the comic, but I know the ending from there, we saved the arch with Huey and Butcher, thank you.

In general, there is a lot left unfinished, like what will happen to the Vout? Why the hell did they even announce that Generation V soups would play an important role, and they were shown a couple of times throughout the season?

Well, they didn't kill If Newman had been there, an excellent arch could have been written for her for the Boys' finale, but the money wouldn't have earned itself, since there wouldn't have been two seasons of complete kindergarten bullshit.
And for the last season, their appearance is purely a waste of the budget in the trash.

And then, yes, it turns out that he was against it because he was in a relationship with her, and besides, Ani herself was ready for the use of the virus. By the way, we've only been shown really good supers a couple of times, so Butcher is right on the whole....

It turned out to be a good ending for me. The fight with Homelander was very cool. It's been a long time since there have been such mixes in the series (to be honest, there are very few battles for superheroics in the series, because the emphasis is more on guts). I really enjoyed this whole battle in the Oval Office. How a Homelander humiliated himself in front of the whole world on camera is also epic. Well, Butcher punished Homelander just awesome, I can't say anything.

The Dip is cool too. It's a pity that he only got it in the last episode.

I didn't like the part of the episode in which Butcher swam (albeit under really understandable and tragic circumstances) and went to kill supers. Although his words were not devoid of meaning, the main task was completed. This part of the series was created simply so that, well, he also needs to be fucked, and that's the only way we came up with such a narrative of the plot. I didn't like it, because they made an optional death out of a plot that didn't fit. And even if it was also in the original source, it is not necessary to repeat it at all, since this is its own story. Saying goodbye to him is sad, of course, because he is charismatic and cool. I was telling Huey a little shit that he did the right thing, because he wouldn't stop, even though he actually started to stop. It's such a parting gift to make Huey feel less guilty about it all. But I still don't like this part of the series right now.

The rest of this series was good. I can't say that about the season.

@MihaSchumi95: Have you seen Huey's regret? I'm not, he was rejoicing at Butcher's death in the cemetery. And this can still be understood from Kimiko, Starlight, but not from Huey. And he was grinning complacently, not at all worried that he had killed a man. Oh yes, and then we see the arch of "well-deserved happiness and recognition." Why would that be? That's just how Kripke wanted it. 🫢

@MihaSchumi95: I didn't like how Butcher was killed either, by God, it would have been better if Home had mortally wounded him. At least it was justified.
And with Huey: the psyche doesn't work like that, if you're told that you did well, that you killed a man, or even "that's what you should have done," then you're not gnawing at the pangs of conscience. You're fighting, worrying, and spinning a bunch of options on how you could stop someone close to you without killing them. Even if you don't like this person. Huey is not Butcher 2.0 or Home 2.0 for psychopathic deviations in the form of absent regret, we were shown exactly a delicate flower who always worries about death.

How sterile and "comfortable" (for leftists) the ending is... The series has always been a political satire on society, but the last season directly became a political statement. Previously, if he was balancing, now he has generally slipped into the left-wing agenda (they say dictators without strength/power are insignificant) which is even sad. This series should have ended differently.
In fact, they just repeated the end of the season with the soldier, but this time they were not interrupted.
Deaths suddenly became easy. Before that, for 5 seasons, everyone was beaten, beaten, thrown, thrown. And then suddenly there's death, like in the Garik Potter finale. (A lot and meaningless) as if the murder quota is boring to close until the end of the season.
In general, it's very bad

Very, very weak. There is no epicness, everything is so mundane, as if the students were filming. We quickly closed several lines of heroes, just to somehow forget.
They killed all the "bad guys": Butcher, Homelander, Underwater, Priest.

All the "good" ones were whitewashed and given a new chance. It didn't cause any feelings: no worries, no tears, no sense of satisfaction that the bastards got their way. It's so simple and childish. All the good wins, and all the bad will be punished.
It's a pity, everything started so well, and, as always, they don't know how to end.

It was necessary to kill everyone: both from the "Boys" and from the "Vout". Because none of them were good people. The fact that they decided to show Huey as a proper boy with principles is nothing at all. He's just as duplicitous as everyone else. Only Butcher had the courage to tell the truth and bring the matter to an end. There are such sick supers as Home, every first one. And just because the Star was sleeping with Huey, did that give him the right to decide that no one needed to be killed? The height of hypocrisy!

It's just a pity for Butcher — he was left alone because of his burden and died. That was sad, he's a real superhero. And all the others are cowards who then suffer because of it.

@N_Sigal: I would say that Huey is the most hypocritical of them all. Remember how he killed the same Invisible Man? And then there's blood on my elbows, but all over my body. And you don't believe in the least that he's about goodness and a moral compass, even though they tried to put it in our mouth in a chewed form and imagine that this was who the main goody guy in the series was and the real hero of the series.
About the fact that once you have a relationship with Starlight, you don't have to kill supers: we've already passed this point, everyone has agreed on everything and accepted that it's necessary, that you have to say goodbye to your loved ones (although this couple can't be called beloved this season), there's nothing beautiful about supers and artificial cloning of superhumans - that was the message of all the boys. But it turned out, it seemed.
We started for health, finished for peace..
I'm disappointed
, it seems, and all the lines are closed, but there are still a lot of questions, why was Marie Moreau needed?

An entire epoch ended yesterday. There could have been more interesting things in this series, it could have been better, but we got what we probably deserved. And, thank God, the assholes were punished with death, and the good ones got their happy ending. And they rounded up the story and gave it to me... Hope? Probably so. Thanks to Kripke and Co., thanks to all those who came up with the original concept, thanks to the powerful cast and amazing wagering. It was really worth it.

I don't understand the whining and disgusting wishes of Kripke and the series at all. Everything ended logically - the bad guys were cleaned up, Butcher (who was the locomotive for continuing the struggle) was removed, the heroes got tired of the eternal struggle and decided to live their lives on what they had achieved, so as not to end up like their forerunner. People built expectations for themselves and were offended that the creator of the series did not do as they expected - a joke. And if I had done as they expect, I wouldn't be surprised that they complained about the highly predictable ending. P.S. this doesn't apply in any way to those who just constructively criticize without insults and other stuff.
The ending is good, logical, and I give the series a 9/10. I am sure that I will review it in the future and be nostalgic with pleasure. All pis

I liked the series. I also like the ending as a whole. I had no expectations that there would be an incredible battle, since only Depth remained of the 7 RCTs (and even then, the Homelander drove him away in the end), so everything went to the fact that the Homelander would remain alone in the end. It's not very clear why many people thought there would be a mega-battle, given that everyone is afraid of Homelander, he has no superpowers left to support him, except for Oh, Father. It makes sense in this regard.
The only thing I didn't like was the fused Soldier. They brought him out of creostasis, then shoved him back in, and no one remembered\\ found him in the finale. It's kind of weird, and I think it would be possible to come up with a better ending for it, like, for example, Sage, who just left. Well, the Soldier wanted to leave, let him really just go far away and he won't be in the finals anymore, because he doesn't care about these events.
In general, it's a normal ending.
The most absurd thing is that the series, which looked like a parody of superhero franchises, eventually turned into the same cardboard franchise.

I'm disappointed with the finale. A lot of the fights in the series were staged better than this one. There was a lack of scale and epicness. Are you serious? The whole ending is in one room, and not even one of the main characters died. The title of the series is blood and bones. And where b... Are they lost? We just saw the brains of a Homelander. And this camera trick was just a mockery of the audience and a cliche. So everyone sees in real time what's going on in the oval office, but no one wants to interfere? It was a strange decision with Marie. That is, a whole spin-off was made to tell that there is another super who can defeat Homelander, and just don't even merge it, but stupidly forget about it, given its potential, that it can even resurrect a person. It couldn't be worse. I hope the authors will say in a few days that it was a joke, here's the real ending for you.

The most banal, basic and slightly crumpled ending with a happy ending. It was like watching the finale of the Boys instead of the Boys.
I remember reading Glukhovsky's Metro on his website back in the ancient Internet. Like ongoinging... And there the main character struggled through all the scrapes, looking for a way out, and so on... and then he was stupidly killed in one of the crossings. The end!

Well, it felt the same way here. Like, is that logical? Well, yes, if we're talking about the philosophy of comics and popular culture. Vital? Well, in general, it's probably why the opponents don't solve the problem with a fist fight. Was that what I was waiting for? No, of course not...

Saying goodbye to the Frenchman at the beginning - the insert about the anuses is strong..!)

It was ridiculous to expect that the codes and tunnels to the White House would be the same as last year))

As the worshiping exploded from the gag it was orno

The homelander, whose laser gaze cut everything on the spot, is now just pushing the supers away

It's very noticeable that everyone was nervous and everyone was merged in one episode, purely for the finale.

We've been waiting for this Butcher-Homelander fight since 2019!)

But there's some kind of ending, as if it's still unsaid.
I guess I just don't personally understand this fashion of criticizing absolutely all the series finales that are currently being closed.
If the season itself was average, then I really liked the ending.
I don't remember people digging into everything like that before.
We used to watch TV shows too, and people liked something and didn't like it.
But now, no matter which series I open the comments to, I'll get 100 critics at once, and where's the budget, and where's the action, and the dialogue, and it's not like that, and it's not like that
For me, everything ended as it should, MM is alive and living life with his family, took Ryan away and in fact, he will be a better father figure for him than Butcher or God forbid Homelander would be.
Huey and Starlight are also expected.
The underwater got what he got, died despised by everyone, rejected even by his fish, there is no place for him anywhere and there is no one left, a suitable death for such a schmuck like him
Homelander, I was in the camp of those who admire Anthony Starr but wait for Homelander's death.
The only thing that was strange to me was that when he lost his strength, he began to humiliate himself in front of Butcher, I still thought that the fear that he inspired in people, the power that he had, did not correspond to his behavior afterwards, he behaved worse than underwater, begging to suck off just to be spared.
Well, Soldier Boy, it's clear that a spinoff awaits us, but I would like to close the normal line here, regardless of the other series, and not what we got.
And we ended up playing Billy Joel.
In general, the season itself is on seven, and 8/10 is the final for me.

@Каrkar_reedus-01: so the thing is, the ending corresponds to the season, not the whole series.
It used to be a satire on everything in general, in the end it's cheap banter on Trumpists. And then, of course, Trump had to be completely humiliated.
In the beginning, what's not super is scum, what's not the main character is not the hero. By the end of the series, they were only divided into the good and the bad.
In a good way, everyone should have died except Huey, maybe. They would have staged a super battle where someone from the main caste would die every 30 seconds. That would be in the spirit of the series. And it would be remembered for a long time. As it is, the ending is too refined and simple.
@Wefast: now many people have some kind of obsession that if everyone didn't die in the final, there was no blood and guts, then the final is bad, I don't understand it.
Everyone in the SD was unhappy that there were no deaths

@Каrkar_reedus-01: an epic battle in the finale, where no one dies, and the antagonist, who does not kill anyone, and defeating him does not feel like liberation from the cataclysm, but just an ordinary mission that could be completed without stretching everything for so many years. Do not confuse bloodthirstiness with devaluation, and the moment that glavgad moves from actions to intimidation by the end (that now he will get angry as he starts killing all the unbelievers), just kills some tension and instead of hatred and catharsis, you feel the taste of the antagonist from cheap movies, where he pushes terrible monologues about taking over the world, but he is stopped at the last moment... And it all came down to a dull banality - it's no more than a good ending, it's lazy nonsense, made up of a dump that could happen literally at any moment and in any season, and it doesn't feel like a finale.
The humiliation of a Homelander is just the same pattern. Without his powers, he is pathetic, he has always been cowardly and insecure.

As gorgeous as the first two seasons are, the finale is so sterile. Still, the final fight with Home should be epic, not a kitchen fight.
However, I would like to mention the most merged character - this is the Vout Corporation. I still can't believe that a corporation that didn't piss off working with the Nazis and conducting experiments on children controlled the supers solely through loot. And that in 50+ years of her activity, she has not come up with a weapon against them. Especially when the Homelander appeared. In the original, Wout was not so toothless.

@Kurai: Well, in the end, despite this, Vout still won.
Everyone remembers GoT, ST, and Dexter. Doesn't anyone get burned up by the end of the video? For me, she's in the top 3 bad endings, and ST is at most in the top 10, the guys are there. But in general, nowadays it is much more difficult to remember a series that was completed (not closed) normally, and that most people liked it. The supers are the same - too sad and not worthy.
In general, from the Boys of the sample of the first seasons, one could expect some kind of unpopularly shitty ending for the characters, but the tendency to average the intensity of the cunt hinted that there would be no total decay. It's a pity. I was mentally prepared for the fact that everyone would die, or a dystopian post-nap would happen, or well, something completely sudden, for which my imagination is not enough. But we have what we have.
It's infinitely insulting that, with all the other survivors, they killed the Frenchman for good. In the fifth season, he became my favorite character. And in the previous ones, if you think about it.

There wasn't enough action, at the end of the third season, makhych was more dramatic, there was a lot of water, few supers (mainly because everyone was already dead), 5 seasons went to the homelander, and as a result, 4 minutes of timekeeping were given to this, and it was revealed with the help of a brilliant idea that was formed and implemented 3 episodes before the finale. there is time for third-rate characters from another series, potentially interesting Ryan appeared 2 times per season, there was no soldier at all at the end, the Frenchman died for fuck's sake. Generally sluggish, very sluggish, but it could be worse)

Homelander was an imbecile super. He always killed the other supers with one hand.

Immediately, he did not damage Kimiko at all, although she has no super strength at all. Like Ryan, he could knock him out with one punch or send him into the stratosphere.
He is as fast as Train A, which the human eye does not even notice when running. Then his speed was taken away from him.

They held him in place with their hands, what?! He could fly away with them, run away. Together with them, I could do 100 laps around the office and leave nothing of Kimiko with the same Butcher.

Again, the Homelander was violent in the beginning, super-strong, and still heroic. And he slackened in micro moments when he was alone.
They immediately took all this away from him, and made him a whining schizophrenic, raising all his suppressed pens to the absolute. They turned him into a joke (again, apparently because they decided to make Trump out of him, and then humiliate him so humiliate him to the fullest)

Previously, all trends, all movements, everything were ridiculed. They didn't divide everything into black and white.
As a result, it turned into a thick banter over the right, even a Mask was inserted for some reason, which he somehow managed to send into space in a second

The plots with the new Noir, Soldier, Sage, and characters from the academy are completely fucked up.

They didn't even develop the plot with the virus. Why give Kimiko new powers in the basement on her knee if they had a Soldier with a wunderwafle?

They could have shown a super bloodbath in the last episode without leaving anyone alive. But we made a happy ending for some reason.

As a result, as soon as they decided that they would do better than the original, they merged everything and turned it into a political campaign without a coherent and interesting plot.

The season was stretched by the promotion of the spinoff and the cliched arcs of most of the characters. A separate pain for the daughter of Newman and Marie Moreau, because the legacy of my beloved Victoria was thrown out into nowhere and, to be honest, they actually came up with it all back then, as if they hung up a Chekhov gun and it didn't fire, absolutely these heroines didn't play a role anywhere. As far as I'm concerned, Butcher should have been killed by Newman's daughter, and Huey would have tried to calm them both down and then accidentally killed Butcher. But that would be on condition that the Homelander was killed in the last episode, and in this one, the split among the boys and Butcher's motivation were fully revealed, that as long as there were supers, the world would be in a mess and sooner or later some new Homelander would appear again (as for me, it was necessary to develop this particular line and not leave it for the last 20 minutes and the whole season to promote the fucking spinoff of the soldier)

Well, it's a great joke that starlight threw deep to the seashore, not knowing that he had a problem with the underwater world, so why the fuck would she choose this particular place for battle, of course, because that's how the scriptwriters need to complete the underwater arc and it pisses me off the whole season that we don't follow the characters but the scriptwriters in a good movie It shouldn't be felt

The last episode slightly stretched the situation in the meat-and-blood season and sawed out the main characters (which was originally a feature of the series and which they began to forget about). But I didn't pull out the script in any way, draining the STRONGHOLD, everything was already expected here. And the underwater one, of course, had to be thrown into the sea-ocean.

Rather mixed impressions after watching the series.

  1. Generation V just merged. The children did not help in the fight against the Patriot and went to Canada with a high.
    2.the Supers survived, and many of them were on the side of evil. What will happen to them, how will this continue to be regulated? Who will be punished for crimes?
    3.The Star is just a disappointment of the season. A tactless character who only caused irritation. I couldn't even overcome the depth.
  2. Ashley-well done. One of my favorite characters.
  3. Poe Butcher was expected to die. It would be better to spray that virus against the supers already.
    6.The Decisive Battle turned out to be a little strange. The Patriot just watched Kimiko try to take away his strength
    7.Leaked The Soldier. It remained frozen in the cell. And there was such a potential…

Well, the finale of such a series was expected to be more epic, of course, but to be honest, my expectations dropped so much during the season that I was just happy with the fun and atmospheric battle. Homelander became so pathetic without his powers, Butcher beat him hard. Sage became very funny after the stupor, for the first time in a season it became interesting to look at her. In the end, the soldier was never unfrozen, and it's stupid and insulting. Why was he given so much time in the season? It was just for the prequel's PR, but it didn't do any good here. The climax between Huey and Butcher is somehow under-stressed. I didn't want to cry, but it should be at such moments. In general, the deaths of the heroes caused few emotions.
Overall, it's a weak season. For me, it is clearly visible how the series was sliding down according to my own comments on this resource. I started writing here from the third season, and with every episode I was bursting with excitement. I was still scribbling a lot in the fourth season, but there was a lot more criticism than excitement. And during the fifth, I didn't want to write at all, because stupidly nothing was happening. There may have been a lot of memes and good jokes, but the most important thing - the plot - was not delivered. The final season of the series, which once set everyone on their ears, shouldn't be like this.

The fate of the Soldier remains a mystery, lying there in his cryo chamber and does not even suspect what kind of batch he missed... they'll wake him up in 100 years, when all this hype settles down and the person gets used to the new world again...but that will be another story..

I wanted to read everything, but 450 comments came up... After a hundred, I understood the main claims. Not much different from mine, but... They are often compared to individual entrepreneurs and sole proprietors. Whether they wrote about it or not, at least there were no unjustifiably high expectations due to the promises of the showrunners. After all, Kripke immediately said: don't expect something speculatively cool, everything is quite simple and ordinary. Unlike the same Duffers who promised with three boxes. And so it turned out. Simple and ordinary, without pianos, without twists. Simply. Expected. Personally, I'm only offended for the Soldier, it's a dumb ending for him. They put it in the jar again...

@-Holycow-: many people generally expected a gloomy and almost dark universe). And even during season 4, he said in an interview that there would be a happy ending, a bright world, kindness, happy families and all that sort of thing). Is not it so? That is, the plans were announced, but people thought up diametrically opposite versions. I didn't even consider the option of victory and total power of Homelander, although it would be interesting. So much for "a lot of sincerity and a lot of hope." There were definitely big fights, confrontations and climaxes in the fifth season. But not as big as everyone would like. People were clearly counting on the level of "Avengers: Endgame." And this is Sirik, not a blockbuster. Focusing on emotions- yes, I saw it too.

And as for a happy life under the yoke of Homelander - no, I can't even imagine what kind of happiness. And I am saying this as a person who is completely loyal to the current government, and who is quite comfortable, except perhaps blocking and censoring the Internet. There is a definite limit beyond which totalitarianism cannot be combined with happiness.

It's amazing that the company wasn't sued for false advertising. Now, in 2026, I would like to advertise the product (and a TV series on a paid platform is, wow, a product!) and piss in the audience's face, promising scale and epic.

@Mr_Knight: Were there any scenes in the trailers that you're looking for???

I repeat, with neural network posters (and the fact that they are made by AI has been repeatedly confirmed), this trend has increased significantly. So a set of letters is a problem of your perception. A form of mental disorder in which it is impossible to put letters into words))).

That the series is crap now, that the comrade who killed this series for the sake of his erotic fantasies. I really would like to hear the arguments for it, but so far there have been none.

The edit and the ending are normal. Everyone just died and the agenda was finally over. Hooray.
The Norm comics had an ending, unexpected (Bouchard's madness), crazy (patriot clone) It's kind of bullshit.
So Kripke admitted back in April on his Instagram that the comic is much crazier than the adaptation he shot. And he urged fans of the series to read it. It was as if he was always hinting that there was no need to build high expectations from the finale.

I shake hands with all the new arrivals who only realized something at the very last moment and saw the light of Eric Kripke's level of degeneracy, and the ending is exactly as mediocre as I foresaw it all, so I didn't feel any emotions (well, or I just already had a tolerance for disgusting endings)

Everyone and everything was drained, but I was so glad to see that the Abyss was soaked by his own friends. Otherwise, they didn't put the squeeze on it, of course. We bet on a happy ending.

For some reason, over the past few years, all the top series have been sinking hard in the final season, I don't know if the creators are running out of fuel, or if the budget is running out, but if we compare the 1-2 seasons of the Boys with the last ones, it's like it was written by two different people.

Anyway, I still love this series. Anthony Starr deserves an Oscar

It's a good ending. Natural. Butcher fully understood that he would be killed. Kimiko found herself. Mother's milk... Well, I stopped whining that there was no point, as soon as the main problem scattered my brains around the oval office. A sweet couple is also quite a good ending for them. With the son of a Homelander, it is also clear that there clearly could be no future with Butcher. The Homelander himself was perfectly shown what he was like without his powers, it was even thought that it would be possible to leave him alive, so that some of the ordinary people would kill him in a doorway...

In general, the ending is not bad, I didn't spit like most, but the ending of the story turned out to be too sugary, not at all in the spirit of "boys". That's why I came up with (or rather, I "changed" it a little in my head) an alternative version of the last episode of the season, it seems to me that it is more similar in spirit to the boys, whom we all fell in love with in the magnificent first season:) So my option is:
Everything happens the same way as we were shown, UNTIL the scene where Ashley's impeachment is announced on TV: Butcher communicates with the District, who sends him, then Butcher goes to his room and sees a dead dog, then his gaze falls on the flask with the virus. The next shot shows Butcher standing in the doorway in the semi-darkness, which Huey notices, while the others are listening to a TV show where they talk about Ashley's resignation. Next, Butcher disappears from the frame, and then we are shown that Annie and Kimiko start spitting blood. Hugh is blown up and runs to Butcher's room, where he sees a dead Terror, and then an empty flask of the virus. He jumps out onto the street and sees Butcher's car driving away, without thinking, jumps into another car and begins a chase.Next shot: they show friends from Gen V (Marie Moreau and company) who are going either to Canada or already from it, they all also start bleeding from their eyes and mouths, Moreau is trying to somehow cope with this with the help of his "blood magic", but As a result, their car skids, and we realize that they are all dead, too.

"I was PRESIDENT, and now I'm nobody! What the fuck is this life for me?!"
Her hand reaches for the gun, but then her "other self" starts coughing, Ashley reaches for the back of her head and sees blood on her hand. She screams in horror, trying to figure out what's going on, and blood starts flowing from her mouth, too. Next frame:

Butcher is in the Tower of Seven, and Huey comes there. Hugh asks Butcher why he did this, because the Homelander was already dead, to which Butcher pushes him a monologue that then there will be a new Home, all supers are dangerous, they should not exist in principle and blah blah (which is what he said in the series). Huey points a gun at him. Butcher says it takes balls of steel to kill a friend, and Hugh replies, "I have them."
And shoots Butcher. Next, she also approaches him (as shown), holds his hand, because no matter what, our baby Hugh is a kind guy. Butcher tells him the same thing he said (that he (Huey), despite all the shit, remained human, and did the right thing by shooting him, because this is his revenge for Annie, but at the same time he himself (i.e. Butcher) He couldn't have done anything else either, because as long as all the other supers were alive, even if Home was dead, his mission and revenge for Becky's death would not have been completed.
Next shot: Uh, Ryan and Huey at the cemetery near the graves of Butcher, Asterisk and Kimiko. Gray, gloomy sky, no farewell speeches, all three are silent. Then MM says to the District, "Let's go, kid." They leave, leaving Hugh alone, who begins to sob and falls to his knees in front of Annie's grave. The next shot: MM knocks on the door of the house, his wife opens (no scenes with a second wedding, why all this snot?), they hug, the audience realizes that MM has his family again, and adopted Ryan of course :)

Next shot: Huey is wandering down the street with a blank stare, just moving by inertia. Billboards, advertisements, etc. (everything that has something to do with supers) are being removed everywhere, new posters are being hung, advertisements in the spirit: "now the earth belongs only to PEOPLE." Next, Hugh's phone rings, and on the other end of the line, the president says that even though all the supers are dead, Voight, led by Edgar Poe, are planning something anyway, they need to be monitored so that they don't make another V, and new supers, and they need a head of the tracking department. To which Hugh replies, "Thank you, but I don't want to get involved in all this shit anymore," the president replies, "If you change your mind, you know where to call," and hangs up.

@-Holycow-: I disagree about the prerequisites, it's been clear for a long time that a homelander without superpowers is not a genius at all, and it seems to me that in this series, and not only this character, there were scenes that are more morally difficult to play)) it's basically just a monologue/dialogue, in the first seasons there seemed to be a lot more tin and cringe in this regard. in general, although it would be interesting to look at homelander as an ordinary person for a longer time, so that the death scene does not look so rushed, but from the point of view of the plot it's stupid, he would get to V (although not V1) and that's it, you can start over.

There is literally zero efficiency from the characters of the vi generation. Why introduce them into the main plot of the boys, if in the end they did absolutely nothing and did not help in any way. Why was it necessary to disperse the fact that Marie is one of the strongest supers, if she did not play any role in the finale and her strength was not shown once during the entire season.

Throw sticks at me, but I got high from the ending of the series "Boys".

I waited two seasons for them to kill Homelander and Deep, how many attempts and opportunities were missed, and they did it, the beauties!
The only thing that upset me was that Butcher, Frenchy, and Terror ended up dead. Although they left with dignity)!

Of course, it turned out to be crumpled, it could have been done better (something can always be done better), but as it is, it's also quite good.

The series goes to the heart of Dexter, The Bridge, Breaking Bad, Dark and Ted Lasso😁

How stupidly they leaked the Dip... I've been waiting for some kind of character development since the first season, that he would get tired of Homelander's endless humiliations and betray him. And how ironic it would be if it was Deep who eventually killed Homelander, because he repeatedly said that he was a worthless nobody.
I wasn't expecting this at all. Moreover, I would be disappointed if that happened. He is shown to be completely hopeless, unlike A-Train.

@ИнтeрecныйФиллep: Well, it just so happens that no one dares to praise this show, but this is not because the series ended badly, it's because everyone is dragging on the pull of haight and HYPE... whether it's the critics and ratings, that's where everything is for real, that's where the experts and connoisseurs are)
@-Holycow-: There is no truth anywhere, only subjectivity and personal opinion, but it's good that at least someone is trying to explain to the viewer why it fucked up and ended badly, and if anyone does not agree, they will be given a minus. All according to the precepts of Homelander)

@ИнтeрecныйФиллep: Well, if you perceive a personal opinion as an attempt to impose it, it's undeniable, but broadcasting a personal opinion and arguing for it is not equal to preaching to an unreasonable herd. + if a person likes trash, trash doesn't become something else. Here we need clarity: a person defends garbage and accuses people who call garbage garbage because they do not understand that garbage is not garbage... The point here is far from the fact that "whoever does not agree, he will be given a minus."
@-Holycow-: But only here is a personal opinion without imposition, and it is those who liked the ending who are being downsized here. This is just a wonderful layer of post—irony and in the context of the main conflict of the series — everyone should love Homelander, and whoever doesn't love him is a starlighter and adds a wonderful aftertaste to the series. Just like the bloggers' videos of the same type, "the finale is merged / about Bali / spent" — it is on the wave of hype: everyone should hate the finale. And if you don't hate the ending, then you're a shit-eater)

@ИнтeрecныйФиллep: well, probably, but I didn't watch all these videos in the screenshot, but suddenly I looked at this one, and it seemed to me quite good.

I watched the finale quite early, when there were still 50 comments, and started writing my own in the spirit of "what else can you expect from a series if it has spin-offs even before it ends," but even stalled
then I looked at who Kripke was, what he had done before (Supernatural only, according to in essence), what were the overall ratings and ratings of different seasons from critics/viewers..
in short, I buried myself, and now some kind of disgusting feeling appeared that this was the calculation, as it were - haight, comments, popularity, etc., although not from Kripke himself / other creators, but from the bosses of Amazon, for example (well, the first 2-3 seasons were thought out and made accordingly, and the rest is on the wave of HYPE by appropriate methods, like don't care about quality, the main thing is buzz, "attention"..)

therefore, I changed my mind about writing the comment myself, but after some time I still threw this video here as a "gestalt closure" :)

@ИнтeрecныйФиллep: Of course, the chosen ones) You haven't screwed up yet, they hate the ending just because the Homelander didn't win) I repeat once again to consolidate - Your attitude does not affect the quality in any way, if you see sheep in the audience who need bloggers to explain how to watch and understand the series, then you are clearly on the wrong side)
@JeendIgo: I'm not saying that the video you shared is bad. And those on the screenshot — I only watched a couple, but all the videos are essentially the same type) I liked the videos with references and theories, then I watched where they compare the comic and the series, since I'm not going to read the comic, but it was interesting to see how the arches were lined up there (The Noir clone of Homelander was just interesting there) but not the point. I just watched the video, and then YouTube started putting a lot of videos "with a merged ending" in the river) I found it funny why you only have one video if there are a lot of them.

As for the seasons, I agree, the first three bantered everything in a row under a layer of black humor and jokes below the belt, and then there was one-sided banter over Trump..... Yes, well, I won't take a minus, there are a lot of people who spoke out.
@-Holycow-: You're writing as if I'm the one making the same kind of "why do boys have a fused ending" videos

Actually, I'd love to see Homelander win, and I'd be looking forward to season 6. This is how one could turn around, dystopia, totalitarianism, a permanent leader. People are like zombies, treated by telepaths.... From treshak , one could move towards a harsh dystopia ... But the creators clearly had a different goal for seasons 4 and 5) but what about the audience? And the viewer feels the propaganda being imposed, just the ratings and reviews show this.

This is really the worst episode of the entire series. And the closer to the final, the worse it gets. It's hard for me to put into words how disappointed I was with the season and the finale.
Throughout the series, I envisioned many plot twists that could justify the amount of disappointed reviews that were being posted from all corners.
I don't know what kind of action you expected at the end, but it turned out to be a pretty normal finish.
I was hoping for a surprise from Underwater, where they could make a beautiful fight, but alas.

Yes, they leaked the Homelander, what. It's a pity for terror, and it seems like the real dog from the set has already died, too.
It's a good ending, everything is in its place. I just didn't understand what virus the president was talking about to Huey, I thought they hadn't released him. And anyway, I thought Singer was dead.
It's a pity that in general, the series is liberal, for all the good, against all the bad, and that's it. But the corporation stayed, the old head came back, as if they would fix it (spoiler alert - no)

I really liked the ending.
It turned out well.
Yes, Kimiko is a little crumpled, but in general, the Homelander lost his strength and groveled in horror - it makes perfect sense.
Butcher did not deviate from his plan, but allowed Huey to stop him.
It was a very dramatic moment, actually. We were shown that something human had awakened in him, that Huey had reached out, but it was too late. Eh. Well, it's also logical. The patriot is dead, the goal has been achieved, there is nothing left to live for.
In short, I'm happy with the finale, especially after the weak 4th and 5th seasons in general. A worthy conclusion.

In the words of the classic: "dumb shit of dumb shit." The final episode, as well as the entire final season, did not cause a single emotion, except boredom. Although no, when they showed the "dead" Terror, my lip twitched. Because playing on the death of animals is a kick in the gut. The death of a Frenchman is simply comical. The ending of this episode is like the fruit of AI (like the whole season). Very sorry. The first two (three?) the seasons are watchable, the rest must be skipped.

Kripke said that Amazon squeezed the money for the finale - sounds like a skill issue, if the previous 7 episodes would not have been smeared with snot and absolutely useless battles / fan service, maybe there would have been enough money for an epic finale. And yes, the character of Homelander was leaked so poorly that I'm even offended that Tony Starr was not allowed to roam normally in the finale, just like Karl Urban.

A terrible ending and a long-running season!

1. Why did we need a spinoff about Marie Moreau if she didn't influence the plot of the last season in any way? You can see how the scriptwriters changed their shoes on the move and simply removed Marie and her team from the finale. Well, you don't want to make the girl the hero of the Boys, well, give her the opportunity to resurrect the Frenchman or kill Synapse and other Homelander henchmen in the end. Why would season 2 admire Moro and her abilities to flush her potential down the toilet?
2. Every season and every episode, we are shown the growing threat of the whistling flask of Homelander, which is about to unleash everything around. But no, in the end he just fights hand-to-hand with Butcher and his son and grabs the noble ones from afar. Although in the previous series and in general in the series he has superpowers, super speed and other super powers.
3. To revive and put to sleep the Soldier, so that he does not affect the plot in any way, it is necessary to try. I found Booster, but I didn't kill him. He didn't die from the vaccine, so that he could just try to prevent them from finding the vaccine, and then just put it in the hands of Homelander. I don't even know how many people will want to watch it in a separate series after such a flimsy season.
4. There wasn't enough budget for Starlight's abilities at all, the entire film crew was throwing off a couple of sparks.
5. In general, you skip the whole season with a bored look, because the murders and mokrukha really don't make sense anymore, the dialogues are long and pretentious, jokes about dicks and ass pass by

In general, it's just sad.

Not the greatest drain of the finale, of course, but not at all what I expected, but as they say, your expectations are your problems. Houma was clearly taken aback, he was scattering them even without the b1 serum, but here he was practically unable to do anything. The characters from gene Vi turned out to be useless extras, and there was talk about the one who controls blood.
The series was loved for its harsh banter and satire on everything, and for the first three seasons it really held this level. And starting from the 4th, it turned into a rather predictable anti-Trump pamphlet. The satire has become much more straightforward and one-sided, with an emphasis on criticism of right-wing conservatives.

But thanks to the creators for Putin's cameo — and then how RosSMI happily sucked on it. Even the experts were invited, who wisely said that "Omerica's narratives have finally changed." Yeah, the spirit of Anchorage is right) 💪💪💪

I also liked the banter on the audience: such epic posters fueled interest, they say, wait for the apocalypse. And the result is a fighting game in the Oval Office. Hey, we don't have Marvel here (and a smaller budget), your high expectations are your problems.

Yesterday's final episode was disappointing, of course, but thinking about why they showed it the way they did, there's a pleasant aftertaste. Most of all, Burgurt was aroused by the heroes' story armor (especially when they were shot from above in the corridors of the White House, but they were all intact) and the underestimation of the Homelander's powers.

And how the creators handled the spin-off is a masterpiece. Have you watched "Generation V" and waited for the Mistress of Menstruation to come and save everyone? No, well, that's your problem, we didn't force you to watch two seasons.

According to the dynamics, season 5 is many times better than the snotty 4th, and it would be a mistake to drag out the story any further - it would slip into self—repetition and reflection, as in "The Walkers". That's why they finished and finished. Thank you. And I will definitely watch the prequel.

PS. I feel sorry for the dog. My sharpey also died, we lived together for 10 years. I came home and he was lying cold on the floor, as if sleeping... the scene with Butcher's dog just tore my heart 💔

It's a good ending. The season is chaotic and often very "homotronic" (well. you know: the scenario armor of superpowered boys, the characters' intelligence jumping from idiot to imbecile...), but it all ended quite pleasantly.
I do not know what to say, to be honest. It feels like a very snotty happy ending. Everything is fine with everyone. Doubtful, but OK.

In general, I agree with many above: the series was really delayed initially by its blackness. The first three seasons really caused laughter in the crowd with disgust. I've never been a fan of movies and TV shows with lots of blood and guts, but here it was just wow!

I think it's good that the series is over. The ending isn't great, but it's not shameful at least.
My only complaint by the end of the season was why kill the Frenchman, but I don't understand people who are unhappy with the finale , they say they leaked, etc., but what did you expect ? From the first seasons, it was clear that the series was moving in a different direction regarding the ending than the comic, and it was better than in the comic, personally, I would not want almost everyone to die at the end. It all ended quite logically , and that 's what it was all about . Of course, they could have done a better job at the end, Soldier Boy, Marie Marot, but I don't understand why they were being introduced at all, etc., if in fact nothing was solved at all)) and the Home against Butcher and Kimiko looked weak, I imagine what would have happened if there had been even more supers, it was necessary to do something like Thanos battles with the Avengers to do)) and so along the way , all of Home 's allies were killed , or he killed himself )

@arfaegond_y: Are you aware that the series, which "moved in a different direction regarding the ending," did 2 scenes one-on-one with the death of Home and Butcher, with the only difference being that there was almost no one left in the comic from the boys, but it's unclear why it happened that they came back to the same point and very unconvincingly)
@-Holycow-: Are you going to insert your 5 kopecks in every comment here, dude, like one-on-one with a comic book? In the comic, Homelander is killed by Black Noir, who is a clone of Homelander. Noir literally tears the Homelander apart. And the wounded Black Noir is immediately finished off by Butcher. What kind of one - on-one 🤦

Then Butch arranges a genocide of the supers with a virus. Huey tried to stop him. A fierce fight broke out between them. Butcher realizes that it's over and tricks himself into killing himself. He lies that he killed Huey's parents, and Huey ends up killing Billy in a fit of anger. He didn't shoot me, as in the TV series, but killed me with a splinter.

@-Holycow-: in the series, Butcher kills Homelander. In the comic, Butcher kills Homelander's Black Noir clone.

@ИнтeрecныйФиллep: Apparently, you don't see it. Why did you have to move away from the comic book in season 1, so that you could finish everything exactly like in the comic book? I don't care about the team and the virus and black noir. What's the point of changing anything if Butcher kills Home anyway, and Huey kills Butcher, what's changed? What's the idea?
@-Holycow-: it's not a comic book in the first place and it doesn't have to follow the original source) from the very beginning, it was not an identical film adaptation, Simon Pegg was then supposed to play the role of Huey, Noir was supposed to be a double of Home, and so on, and so on, and the battle at the end could have been done better, bigger, and so everything that was expected.

24 May 19:05 #
@arfaegond_y: I don't have to, but for some reason they added the ending of the original, because they needed some kind of ending.

Later, the Homelander began to create game on his own, like "well, since I'm like that.".. In the series, the cuckoo has gone from unlimited power, the desire for everyone to love you is somehow more realistic)

After watching the episode on the day it was released and after a thorough analysis, I still haven't changed my mind, and the finale, like most of this season, is completely merged.

Homelander lost not to Bucher, but to the screenwriters. Kripke played with his political correctness and hatred of Trump, which he forgot what the series was at the beginning. And he was a parody of many things in our world, and as a result, the series itself became a parody for the worse.

I don't understand the scriptwriters and how it was possible to do such non-logical things like a child's penetration into the white house, underestimate the powers of a Homelander (the guy flew back and forth into space in 2 seconds and then couldn't fly away from Bucher and Kimiko), only two associates on the side of Homelander, seriously?)
It's so stupid it looked so intimate that you don't believe in this cheap production, how could you not give a normal budget for an adequate and large-scale finale of one of the most popular streaming projects?)

They easily defeated the strongest superman, and only because the people who wrote the plot of this bullshit wanted it that way.
And in general, the Vout company is the main villain, they gave birth to everything and the guys just left them alone))

In general, there are already a lot of AI with other endings on the Internet and they look MUCH cooler than what was shown to us, but take at least the ending in the comics and make it, or if you start coming up with your own, well, make sure that the Homelander wins everyone and it will be much cooler and will amaze everyone, but there is no better shit to remove.

Thanks to Kripke for your pathetic and filthy propaganda against Trump, you did it instead of making a TV series.

I've seen so many bad reviews for the finale. I was preparing for the worst. There is so much negativity, as if it is even worse than the ending of Very Strange Cases.

And it turned out that the ending was quite normal. I didn't expect an epic, because it's clear that the series has a budget of not 200 million blockbuster.

The final fight is intense, filmed spectacularly. The main lines are all closed. It ends logically. Once again, I am convinced that people like to create a haight for the sake of haight, if reality turns out not to be what they imagined for themselves.

Pregnant starlet in crocs flies to save the world))) They gave her an interesting ending, of course, and it's strange enough that they didn't show her how people perceive her now after Homelander's death.

Kevin got the most brilliant death, she just laughed out loud, the man suffered, but he killed the marine life and in the end they turned against him, which is very, very logical. Chase played this character very coolly, it was interesting to watch him after his role in Gossip Girl

Butcher also died quite logically, because he had previously said that the last person holding him in this world was his dogel, so no dogel = no Butcher, but they could have done it a little differently anyway, and he himself would soon have given up, as he lost his abilities and his cancer returned

MM has a cool ending yet, but otherwise there are more questions left than answers)))

Well, it was obvious from season 4 that everything would end up dull and boring. Which is already a series where 2 seasons are super good, and then the game begins...
The whole season was a complete filler.
A series with a cast of superpowers was probably needed only to show the dudes from the superpowers...there was no other fucking point at all.
The Bombsite and Geisha episode was an advertisement for a new series about these characters, so it didn't make much sense either.
Two hours out of eight were given to the water, but they decided to fit the final battle in 10 minutes...just lol.
I'm already silent about the inconsistencies like those that in the first episode, Home's lasers cut Kimiko into two parts, but in the finale, the same lasers did not even burn her sweatshirt.🤷🏼♀

I would compare this series to the dregs that was a long time ago. It also doesn't carry any semantic load, I looked / giggled and forgot in fact.

Maybe I'm so biased because of the bad last season, but to be honest, I can't remember what happened - wow, cool for all the seasons, maybe the first 1-2 seasons, but it was so long ago and it's already forgotten. Although, on the other hand, we managed to watch it to the end and not drop it, it's also a great merit. Mixed feelings are shorter.

A wonderful ending. For some reason, I shed a tear at the death of my unloved character, Butcher.

Anthony Starr excellently played my beloved narcissus and incomparably conveyed his I am nobody/I am God moments. No matter how much I love Homelander, I am satisfied with his fate. The poor guy couldn't find happiness in any way. It was painful to watch.

I fell in love with Huey this season. Before that, I thought he was too soft. For some reason, this quality seemed sweet to me during this period of my life.

Well, xs, it seems to be a normal ending. They dragged out the stupid dialogues a bit, but I don't understand what everyone expected that they were so upset about.
Clearly better than the final of the IP and CERTAINLY clearly better than the final of the SD, otherwise they are compared in "awfulness" with them. Well, the scene in the oval office is a bit boring, yes, bruising, this is a throw of faith for Kimiko from the Frenchman, but in general it seems to be normal, but I probably wanted more trash from Homelander, otherwise I kind of went crazy, but even more in words only

I watched the episode and I felt so hurt. Why was the Vi generation needed? I didn't understand at all. They didn't play any role in the finale, hot, Marie was presented to us as a super super. And in the end - or to rescue a bunch of useless people to Canada.

The White House is just a cardboard box.
I thought: "well, now there will be a multi-pass and it turns out that the homelander is not sitting in the white house, but somewhere else, he will have time to kill many who do not believe in him while the boys are looking for him." And in the end, 0 highlights.
Telepaths marked non-believers and no one killed anyone either.

What is another freezing of a soldier? Why is this character being turned around as they want, thawed, frozen.

What a cool season it was before the finals. What statements were made at the interview that the finale would be cool and unexpected, with a lot of deaths, these posters for the finale.
And the result...
I'm disappointed with the ending. The only thing that made me cry was the shot of Kimiko in France and the Terror...

And Butcher didn't care about the kids, he was driven by revenge and rage... What happened is an incomprehensible movie. That is, the author considers these characters to be finished scum, but they act positively and on the path of correction, and then they are scum again, and these are not complex characters, this is the author's schizophrenia.

Another merged series, this is already such a tendency to sit on all the chairs with peaks and cocks, but ultimately the audience votes, we don't care that the studios leave loopholes for themselves to shoot sequels, prequels, spin-offs and other rubbish, it's important to us now, and many also watched this parody for a fee, the final the season would have been better if it had never been released at all and Kripke is an asshole, he dumped all of us for money, the finale of the boys is now the same dumb shit of dumb shit as Game of Thrones and very strange things. It is clear that there was a difficult task to approach the final, but is it serious? This one? Sometimes he takes Musk into space in a second, then he can't just fly away, but did these experiments with Kimiko work in a couple of times? Isn't that stupid? They shouldn't have worked if they wanted to take out the powers of Homelander, they should have unfrozen the Soldier, or like in the comic book, there's a finale with black noir and a Homelander clone, and in the finale Butcher had to spray the virus.
Everything I love: dirt, blood and disappointment.

The Homelander was smeared. Fast, dirty, without pathos. It seems cool, but where's the epic fight? They promised the apocalypse, but they got a showdown in the back room.

Kimiko — well done. She chopped them all off with one left hand.
The octopus, by the way, was more memorable than the ending. Gen V wasn't even invited to the wake.

5/10. Not shameful, but not proud either. To watch is not to fall asleep.

In general, the ending is as average as possible, but it's better than the IP, but compared to the explosive 4 seasons, which went very well, it's just very weak. The soldier was actually leaked ahead of time. The very idea of depriving abilities through Kimiko will go with beer, but it also seems to be made up on the fly, and the last episode is very weak against the background of the entire 5th season. The location could have been chosen on a larger scale for the finale + it 's not so fast to finish the scene with a homedender. Well, on the whole, as if they hadn't put the squeeze on it. Yes, Butcher was sick of the idea of killing all the supers, especially Homelander, you can say he did it, but the reason that the dog died is crazy…

Of course, there are a couple of things that are annoying) was it worth filming the 2 seasons of the spin-off so that the characters would shine their faces in the frame for a couple of minutes for nothing?
The moment with the soldier who gives B1 to homelander is generally darkness. This is what the beloved wanted. Are you sure you wanted to? This is despite the fact that the soldier knows how and from whom his beloved died. Here, of course, the ass is full.
Well, with Bucher, it's somehow true on the one hand, but on the other, he took his finger off the trigger, which means he still saw an opportunity in another life. A new position from the president would be suitable for him. He knows how to kill arrogant supers.
What about Kimiko? Does she sleep constantly or only after applying her new powers? Otherwise, if you do it all the time, you get a small reactor walking among people. Then how does she get along with anyone?
And finally, I expected more epic from the final battle. Okay, that Home was made weaker, but that the whole showdown will take place in the Oval Office? Well, that. Do you remember the heroes in the secret passage who fell into a trap? The operatives also fired on them. I wonder where they went when the heroes escaped from the room. They're probably like, okay, they ran away, then let's go home)
Well, somehow the satire did not please. I used to fuck everyone indiscriminately, but now I'm literally fucking individual well-recognized personalities. So Elon Musk was kicked, so much so in the forehead, so clumsily that even a joke didn't really come out. And so, of course, it's clear that the showrunner is sucking up to the Democrats, but most likely unintentionally ridiculing them, it seems, without realizing it.
It could have been better, but not the worst ending, mawkish, predictable, but still a point.

I have to agree with the majority: there is no ending. As well as the entire final season. It's a pity, because the characters are initially very bright, and many actors tried their best. What is Anthony Starr worth as a Homelander!
But for me, this ending is even worse than Game of Thrones and Stranger Things. Because at least it was epic there, and maybe I didn't agree with everything, but it made sense. Is everything so banal and immature here? And really predictable, which is even worse!
The only thing I kind of liked was the end of Butcher, and that's what it was all about. The handwriting of Hugh is very symbolic and logical.

But I will not forgive how tastelessly the Homelander was cut down in the end. A quick death immediately after the loss of abilities is too easy for a villain of this level. Our heroes really had to lock him up somewhere and force him to suffer from his mediocrity and helplessness.
I don't even want to think about Frenchy's funeral. 🤦🏻♀️ Why were there all these mentions of anuses, the crazy mare.

It also seems like a logical end to Deep, as well as the fact that his final battle took place with Annie (considering how it all started), but still something was missing. Probably confessions and awareness of my mistakes (I didn't need remorse, but understanding). But no, he just stayed dumb to the last.

In general, it was a failure. Why the creators of the series, which have gained huge popularity, do not want to understand; the finale is almost the most important part of any work. Because if you fuck him up, you're basically screwing up the whole story, spoiling the experience for the fans or those who thought they were them.

I was waiting for the underwater one to cling to their group, angry at Wout, who poisoned his sea friends. And I also want to believe that the kid tricked the Soldier and gave him the left vaccine and the Homelander is not omnipotent, otherwise how are they going to kill him?
I don'T understand why you should remove the Frenchman. In my opinion, it was logical that Butcher, the head of the devil's kneading, would die, because he was ready to die every minute. And all of the guys helped for the good. In the end, leaving Kimiko alone, who had a family as her goal in life? What did this incident supposedly teach her? Why then reveal family values to come to nothing?

Further. I don't understand why I should fire Ashley. As a character, she was also constantly striving to develop the company and helped the boys. Why should she have such a fate? In general, drama is illogical in any way. It's as if the scriptwriters forgot their previous scripts and came up with random endings for the characters.

Rather, Kimiko should have gotten pregnant, and the Star and Huey should have just opened their own business, where the Star periodically flies away to help people.

Butcher should have just died of cancer in his bed after the dog, I think. For some reason, this cancer was originally invented for him. Or shoot yourself with a calm soul. Huey couldn't have actually shot him with such ease and kindness in his heart.

What is Ryan's rationale for staying with his mother's Milk? They didn't lead me to this either. "I chose myself," so I'll be hanging out with Butcher's friend...

And why was there a line with schoolchildren from the Vi generation? With the superpower to do something with blood, it was possible to stir up such a gigantic battle... and not these 2 minutes of the shameful easy murder of a Patriot

Ryan did not go to Canada, most likely because behind the scenes MM offered to live in a normal family, and I do not understand where and how, I think MM has a great choice. A normal family that will give him a roof over his head and an education, but in Canada he would be a tramp.

But it seems to me that the Homelander was humiliated in the finale for nothing — his villainous personality was much more multifaceted. If anyone is offended by this merged ending, it's for him. His fate is no less tragic than that of all these Huey and Butcher. Moreover, he did not choose his fate and, unlike Butcher and Huey, he had been abused since childhood. In the fourth season, I think they talked about it, but in the fifth, it was like Kripke... just spat on the whole backstory and decided to turn the character into a caricature.

The French had almost the same ending.
It's no longer possible, there's howling and whining all over the Internet about how badly the ending of the series was leaked, but how do you think really good stories should end?? and even more so some of the best?? So they were whining about game of thrones, and Heisenberg died in the end, and all because good stories end with a fat dot! And try to come up with a better ending than the whole fucking great series! So Dexter was resurrected for some kind of dick, and the series without Jennifer Carpenter is like without a soul, she was Batman and he was Robin! Or remember the movie peaceful warrior, where the grandfather clearly showed the cunt that the whole point and thrill is in the path itself and not in the final goal when he showed him that they were going to look at the stone! In short, stop making this comment and go on fucking whining! There will also be sequels and prequels for you, and one dick wakes it all up wrong and wrong because there is nothing to compare with the original dick!

In general, I was expecting something like this, but it was a shame for the Frenchman. Totally unexpected
But the fate of Homelander and Butcher was not such a surprise, although Butcher could have been merged more beautifully.
In general, it's not bad, I thought it would be worse.
The finale is generally normal, but the series has lost its charm after the third season. Endless failed attempts to kill Homelander. It would have been possible to pull everything up earlier. I think the third season with the soldier was necessary, we found out about the trials of the Russians, which influenced the way to kill the Homelander. Why the fourth one? A virus? As if it were possible to finish all this in the fourth season, connect the stories of the virus and the search for V-1, let him become a God against the background of Home, and bring it to the finale.
I was interested in this series, after they epically killed the invisible one, I thought, well, now they'll go through everything, as a result, they started adding new supers to the series purely to kill them more meatily, otherwise the series' age rating would have dropped without them.
In general, my opinion is that no matter what the ending is, it looks good against the background of the last two seasons.

Weakly. Very weak.
I'm already just silent about all sorts of stupid things and plot shields. But the death of a Patriot cannot be ignored. Many here have already spoken about the weak battle. I agree. Delivered carelessly. No girth, no scale. But then the last minutes are also crumpled. The Patriot's fear is not felt at all. It should have been done more coolly.
For example, a Patriot starts running away on his own two feet in a fierce panic. Butcher just follows him slowly. And the trick is that the Patriot almost instantly exhales and falls to the ground, choking on air. Butcher eventually catches up and begins to make his trademark jokes in the style of "Are your legs giving out? Was the blowhole knocked down? People have been training to run fast for years, think about it." Then, in a panic, the Patriot takes a pistol from the confused guards, who are completely disoriented. The patriot pulls the trigger, but nothing happens. He's at a loss, trying to figure it out like a baby. Butcher easily pulls out the gun with another trademark joke, "Ha, you don't know how this thing works, right? Have you ever used adult toys? Here's an expess guide for you. You take off the safety catch. He's here. And...."Butcher shoots a Patriot in the leg or arm. He begins to crawl away in complete panic. He starts whimpering and almost crying, calling for help. To call my mother. And then cry out to God. Butcher is like, "Wait a minute. So you are God. I didn't get it. Can't you save yourself?" As a result, the Patriot shits himself. Butcher "And here's the shit coming out of the shit. Yes, people squeeze the point tighter so that the bottom does not tear at crucial moments. You have to learn too." And then there would be a gun if a Patriot had to LIE to save his life. After all, this was the basis of the antagonist's psychology for all 5 seasons. And after that, Butcher ends the Patriot with the words "And that's a star, my friend!"
That would be powerfully staged. To make the Patriot's fear go right to his bones. How much have you done for the fuck....

3) Did not understand exactly where Butcher put the virus in the skyscraper? A remote control with a trigger - what exactly was it doing?
4) Butcher had to wait for the "end of the shift of the supers" to launch the virus from the remote control. Why didn't you launch it right away?
5) If the virus is somewhere in a skyscraper, will it be released sooner or later? Even in years, decades.

May this series rest in peace, and Kripke along with him, so that he doesn't shoot anything else, so that Urban and Starr have many more cool and iconic roles, and the actress playing Starlight has recovered mentally, and from the bottom of my heart and out of good intentions, I wish all the spin-offs and sequels of "Boys" devastating negative ratings, so as not to smoke this perishable world with their existence, which is not worth their appearance.
@Hero_Jesus: I 'm in the voice of the best comment in the history of the comments I 've read on this platform
The series was finalized normally. Whiners are too lazy to even comment.

The end came out a little weak somehow. Something was missing. It was as if they squeezed somewhere, and somewhere they didn't squeeze, and what came out came out. I don't know, there was some kind of unpleasant aftertaste at the end of the series. I can only compare it with the OSD, they also failed to leave. It's like all the trash and battles and all the fervor went into the first seasons, and the last ones decided to make a blunder to finish it already.

Instead of the semantic load, they stuffed the scenes with "blood, guts, cocksucker". Yes, this was also the case in all previous seasons, but in moderation and as a concise addition to the overall entourage (the cherry on the cake, if you will, although I don't particularly like dismemberment).
As a result, it's weak, very weak. It's a pity.

Like "Game of Thrones" or "Boys," when you step away from the original source, you get a game, because it's based on a finished work. In my memory, there seems to be only "Mist" by King, where the ending was different from the book, but it went to everyone, even the author. I'm going to read the original "Boys".

It would have been better if Butcher had killed all the supers with this virus, but no, they shot the kid.

As always, the strongest stronghold died very easily ⛏️🧠

The dog was killed, Butcher was killed. They got pregnant with a stupid remade Blonde, and they also left her strength. Whatever.

I saw before watching the comments that the finale was merged, complete nonsense. It ended perfectly, what else should it be? A couple of important characters have died, it's sad, victory must have a price, the patriot is dead, the rest are happy. Awesome
The only question is for the characters of generation V, they appeared in a couple of scenes and it's time to go to Canada))))
By the way, I took a picture with Butcher at the fan expo in Denver today, it turned out to be a cool asshole)

Well, the Patriot was well killed.
I was pleased with his helplessness, fear and insignificance.

Butcher... There is no consensus. On the one hand, it's a pity for him - he's a very cool and colorful character. On the other hand, he's also been out of his mind for a long time.
Killing all the supers is understandable on the one hand. On the other hand, there are many good, positive characters among them. But there are also a lot of bad ones.

I'm glad Huey survived. Their dialogue with Butcher in the finale was good.

I can't say I'm thrilled with the finale, but I'm not spitting on it either. The emotions are like this: it's over and it's over

I'm waiting for Ackles and the Soldier in the backstory. He's damn good at this role!

In the seventh episode, I cried because of the Frenchman, the death was tragic, but why was Butcher so drained in the finale?
The series is one of the favorites, but after watching the final season, there are no feelings.

It's a completely normal ending for the last three seasons, people were imagining things for themselves and disappointed because of their expectations.

An average ending, if you remove the last 10 minutes of sugar snot. Hugh grinned.

No, it wasn't bad. By no means, it's just that I remember my feelings from the first season, and they're completely different from how I feel now. Perhaps because it was something fresh for me at the time, but it seemed to me that the amount of things that refreshed the series at the beginning had become many times more, and it was too much. Strictly, my opinion.
The guys did great, they played great, you believe them, and it's worth a lot)

I don't know why, but for this series, for some reason, I didn't want a happy ending anymore, but a tinplate at the end. With his first seasons, he created a mood of hopelessness and blackness for me, but with each season he became more and more vanilla. Okay, Homelander was killed, but at least the virus could have been released in the end for the sake of at least some drama. I'm not surprised by the ending, because recent seasons have led to something like this.
Otherwise, thanks to the show for being cool sometimes and Anthony Starr for the great acting and memes.

And what's wrong with the ending besides Butcher's useless death?

More chatter, less action, and less trash. It's right that they covered it up in the fifth season, the same generation was originally in the tiresome ug, and the posons have been flying there since the 4th season.

Somehow I don't even know, it doesn't seem good to kill even a criminal, especially since he surrendered and was not dangerous. Am I turning into Batman? 🤔

At the end of the season, I realized that most of them were not satisfied. Unlike those "Game of Thrones" or "Stranger Things," it all ended up in the logic of character development. Plus, all the references to the real world are great.

In a review of "Generation VI," he described how he came to such a life that he had been reviewing The Boys for the last few weeks. Briefly: last time, 4 years ago, I left them in the middle of the third season. And then the last season came out - we need to close the gestalt. Unlike "Generation V," it won't be exactly a review of the entire series. But not only the opinion about the ending, which, obviously, I want to speak out about. Something between the bars.

When I saw/heard about the appallingly low ratings of the last two episodes of "Boys" - at that time I had just watched the fourth - I, like Brad Pitt's character from "Fury", said melancholically: "And I, damn, am not surprised at all." After the grand finale of the third season, where everyone fought with each other and created unobvious alliances right in the middle of the fight, the fourth felt like a step back. It's not just his modest last episode in a cheap basement, but also the general despondency of all the storylines (take, for example, the Frenchman, who abruptly became a condemned representative of an LGBT + organization banned in the Russian Federation). The only ones who were pleased there were the sudden Papa Winchester (Jeffrey Dean Morgan decided to show up, apparently, in all the deconstructions of the superhero genre) and a local parody of Bruce Wayne, a racist Techno Knight with a black butler. He is also a deviant who enjoys bdsm and other maso. The joke lying on the surface about the ever-changing Robin sidekicks began to play with new (yellow-red-brown) colors. Well, even against the background of the spin-off, it all looked secondary and not so cool.

Anyway, I'm starting to watch the fifth season. The first episode is suddenly good. I think it's going to go downhill. The second and third flights are normal. Yes, sometimes the episodes don't rush at full steam. The scriptwriters elaborate on each character (even the bulldog). This is obvious from the point of view of logic - you need to say goodbye to everyone. At the same time, it's funny again, tough again, relevant again, and not as much snot as last season. The Frenchman returned to heterolono (whatever it sounds like). The new characters seemed like they should be annoying by taking up the time of their favorite heroes and villains at the finish line, but in fact they complement the picture. That leaves the last 2 episodes. Well, if it gets hot, you have to cook the feces and throw them at the screen. And... nothing. An absolutely normal ending, in which everything that was supposed to happen happened (I didn't finish reading the comic, I don't know how much it coincides with the main points). The authors closed all the storylines, killed the maximum of those who could be killed, and about the way it was laid out from the very beginning. And all this hype around "The boys disappointed us, boo" is not worth a damn. Well, cry. Is this the perfect ending? As far as I'm concerned, he's decent. Knowing the pit the Boys fell into in season four, it's a miracle that everything ended the way it did. All of this was reminiscent of the "Game of Thrones" syndrome (including the Boucher line, which always led to such a conclusion - it's just a matter of nuances). No matter what you do, everyone won't like you and you won't outplay the fantasy wishlist in the minds of thousands of viewers.

"The Boys" suffered from the surrounding hype and high expectations, a typical problem of long-running series. This is clearly not the ending of "Lost" or "Dexter" in terms of disappointment. I've never praised "The Boys" to the point of "oh, this is the best show in the world," and I've always been very reserved about it. From this point of view, I liked the series in general and its ending in particular.

P.S. Anthony Starr is great inside and out. When I first started watching "Boys," I couldn't believe that this was the same actor who played in "Banshee." Jensen Ackles is amazing. I'm glad they gave him a separate series. The "Supernatural" reunion is very funny (as is the cameo: what's in this particular episode, and scattered throughout the series). Karl Urban is good. Chase Crawford is mega funny.

RATING (for the entire series): 4 guys out of 5

@Bairum: I cooked the feces, and then I thought that the good would be gone... It would seem like shit, but absolutely normal... It's interesting how it should be perceived, I can't read this seriously.
