What no Soldier Boy?
Thats disappointing

He had a cameo in Gen-V maybe they're keeping his appearance in season 4 a secret?
Does anyone have any idea how many seasons they plan on making?
5 supposedly

Aargh, thanks bud.
So I never went beyond the first 3 episodes of S1. Worth getting back into now and catching up?
Hell yes!
You’re in for a treat! (assuming this is your thing of course).
No trailers for me thank you very much.
Was there a reason you gave up?
Frenchie killing chickens? You son of a bitch, I'm in.
I watched this when the first 3 seasons were already all out. Does anyone know if it's usually a weekly release or a binge drop?

It's a full on binge all at once
Excellent! Cheers.
Should be the same as the other seasons, including GenV: 3 episodes at once, then weekly.

Is gen v worth watching by the way? I tried half an episode a while back, but it just lacked the vibe. Wondering if it picks up
Is it? Damn, wasn't it not all at once before?
Definitely. It’s its own thing, but it’s every bit as good and has plenty of touch points with The Boys.
If it wasn’t blindingly obvious, the ‘Gen V’ is a direct reference to Compound V from The Boys. Only difference being that the whole lot of them know that they have powers derived from the substance. (Obviously also a play on Gen X/Z or whatever).
It plays with current social issues more than The Boys that’s looking at facism and global power structures. Some of it is super dark and every bit as disgusting and gory as The Boys.
I don’t see that much difference between them. It’s great.
Time was limited and I had some other shows that pulled me in first. Also didn't develop a care for the characters right away, but maybe that gets better as it goes on (?)
I didn't think GenV was quite a good for me as The Boys, but still absolutely fine if you enjoy that kind of show. There are also some interesting connections to the other show including crossovers from certain characters.
Same for me. The Boys was a level above Gen V. Gen V while much the same isn't as strong both in characters and story, though still enjoyable to watch.
I don't like Superhero stuff but I got through S1 well enough. Not got to S2 yet but will eventually.
Yeah it does! I was mainly asking in case it was the tone you didn't like, because that remains the same. I feel your attachment/hate for the characters is developped quite well as the show goes on, so I'd definitely recommend you to give it another shot!
Agreed
