I thought the first episode was interesting, if not a little slow. I am now 4 episodes in and I am hooked. Really familiar tropes are turned on it’s head and it’s such a great watch. I wasn’t a fan of umbrella academy as I thought the pacing was terrible, however with ‘the boys’ I feel so far they’ve nailed it. Everything feels relevant and not filler, I can’t wait to see more! Edit: finished now, a brilliant watch throughout. The quality of this show put into context what has been wrong in other superhero shows for me. A breath of fresh air in a stagnating genre. Great job guys.

Yes, yes, yes this is what the super hero genre needs. Fresh but gritty thanks to the R+18. Hooked after 1 episode. Keep up the heroics Amazon.

I will give my opinion about the series in points: - boring. - Immorality, and Disgusting sexual content. - There is no story, just a waste of time. - Many episodes without a goal. - You will skip many boring shots. My rating is 0/10 and it deserves less than that.

The anger in the comments is hilarious

Outstanding!! Funny, serious, and hilarious! Perfectly executed. Binged watched it in a day and then hated myself for doing it; next season please.
