I mean the boys is a raunchy parody of a super hero show which is already suspect. But then you throw CW level actors into a spin off. You go from bottom of the barrel TV to under the barrel.

Yes under the barrel. As in with this show, the barrel is riding on top while getting fucked by an octopus because some supe has the ability to change into inanimate objects.
The show takes it to that level...

Honestly, dumb youngsters aside I think this season is pretty interesting story-wise. Cipher is a pretty interesting character and quite funny, even if the "twist" can be seen coming from miles away.
I agree however that there is a complete unbalance in the balls to tits ratio.

Marie needs to channel her blood shit, and cant instantly explode someone. Homelander would laser her ass in half a second. Cipher was controlling Jordan from the VIP Suite at the fights. He did so in what seemed like immediately. Cipher would control Marie at the same rate.
The crux for Cipher that they seem to have thrown in there is that some people resist it better? Where as Jordan didnt or couldnt?
If Marie is able to trump all of this shit - then they need to ramp up her ability in the show. Because right now, it looks just as dumb as several other parts of the show.

Marie didn't have to channel anything when she exploded Cate's forearm, it was just reflex. She's only channeling when she is trying to do something carefully (like not exploding the goat), and even then it's clear she's holding herself back involuntarily, with the useless hand gestures (per Cipher), she could be doing all this much more quickly if she let loose.
In fact, she says in episode 5 she felt she could have killed everyone in the arena when she was angry and focused on Jordan being puppeteered by Cipher. And now we know she's also able to manipulate blood back into someone's body and restart their heart / heal their mortal wounds.. and the teaser for episode 6 shows her sister with apparent super abilities now so maybe she is even able to trigger something in normal human blood to make them at least temporarily or permanently super-powered.

This shit is so lazy.
it’s bad enough they just dropped the whole point of the show to make it a trump allegory, but it’s even worse that they can’t even be subtle .
The fact that the bad guys say “woke agenda” every 8 sexonds is so bad. Like why would homelander care about woke shit. Why would cipher? You can make your shitty fag attempts to make them “maga fascists” without being such pathetic excuses for lazy writing. It’s legit as bad a tumbler fanfic

Thats Seth Rogan trying to do woke messaging and failing at it again, in true Paul Veerhoven style. You can trace this all the way back to Preacher with Hitler as a Starbucks employee abd the church secret organization being bad guys. Remember how much he was pissed off that people started rooting for Homelander and kept doubling down, only to make things worse? He is just shitty at telling a story, the hollywood equivalent of that Antifa tranny who tried to shoot ICE agents and kept ganking illegals instead.

this series is mostly meh
the main takeaway is this seasons focus on people able to strengthen their powers and now they have a healer
overall the boys reminds me of the witcher - writers who want to crap over the source material so they can tell their own story

in the comics, black noir is a clone of homelander that is kept as a contingency and he is a real psycho who does some terrible things without his disguise on so people think it was homelander, and they even have homelander convinced he must have blacked out and hes really a piece of shit, but the whole time their main opponent is not guilty just sort of an asshole
