Despite some early objections, The Boys turned out to be a pretty terrific show that exceeded initial expectations and then some.
As we head into the final two episodes, we have relationships on the verge of collapse, secrets to be exposed and a target on the Boys’ backs. Whatever happens next, it’s sure to be bloody.
Coming off the heels of an episode that re-shaped The Boys’ narrative for the better, “The Female of the Species” is another strong hour of television.
After some false starts, The Boys’ “Get Some” solidifies the mission statement of the show, pushes our established characters in new directions and broadens the scope of the world.
So while we did get some leads on our ongoing plot threads, The Boys continues to wallow in its worst tendencies.
The Boys is a bizarre mishmash that leads to some mishandling of sensitive material and a strange tonal dissonance throughout.
Plus One is a perfectly serviceable and adequate romantic comedy; it has moments that charm and promising performances.
