The Boys (2019)
If Real People Were Sups
Spoiler Free*****
It is a rollercoaster ride from the first episode and makes no apologies (nor should it).
Imagine a world where people that are flawed - selfish, power hungry, self righteous, no moral compass -real people (but the bottom of the barrel) and gave them corporate jobs as super heroes...this would be the result. They make The Watchmen look like heroes.
If you don't offend easily, are cynical with a sense of humor, love black comedy with some blood and guts thrown in, then this is the show for you! If the show does offend you, I suggest you stop watching and move on without taking it personally.
BTW, you can totally love Marvel and DC and this show as well. It's all for entertainment and boy does this show entertain! Can't wait for Season 2!
Karl Urban, Elisabeth Shue and Jack Quaid, (along with the whole cast) are excellent.
What/If (2019)
I Loved Revenge But Did Not Like This Show
I loved the show Revenge and Renée Zellweger, so I figured why not give it a try?
The show was bad and not the good kind of bad. The plot was all over the place and so badly written that I didn't care about any of the characters. There was one plot line (ok maybe 2) that were dumb and really of no point other than trying to make the show "bingeable". Or maybe the writing is just THAT bad??! If I hadn't been home with a cold I would have never finished it, but I regret to say I did. I did cheat toward the end and fast forward for part of the last 3 shows, I just wanted to be done with it.
If you're on the fence, save yourself the time and regret....and skip it.
