I binged watched The Boys, starting about a week before S5 came out. I try to go into shows like this (I literally knew nothing about it, other than the most basic superhero angle) with the idea that I’m there for whatever story they want to tell. Most times I’m disappointed (Game Of Thrones comes to mind), but a lot of times it’s a good ride (For All Mankind, and The Expanse comes to mind). No show that has a multi-season run is going to be perfect (except Andor, Andor was damn near perfect), but the good and great parts of AAA shows will stick with you, and you’ll absolutely understand the story they want to tell.

Yup, as mentioned in the bit (at least tangentially).

Enshitification marches on.
