The premise of this TV adaptation of The Boys is set, "in a world where superheroes embrace the darker side of their massive celebrity and fame and revolves around a group of vigilantes known informally as “the boys,” who set out to take down corrupt superheroes with no more than blue-collar grit and a willingness to fight dirty."

The main appeal of the comic was seeing what are essentially blue-collar workers take on the power and celebrity of major public figures (in this case, superheroes), adding a sort of class warfare thematic subtext that's unique in the superhero genre. The fact that it comes from Preacher creator Garth Ennis also means that plenty of in-your-face sex, violence, and generally demented oddity is also part of the mix.

The Boys stars Karl Urban and Jack Quaid in the lead roles of "The Boys" leader Billy Butcher and new recruit Hughie Campbell (respectively). Also in the ensemble cast are Jennifer Esposito (The Affair), Elisabeth Shue (CSI), Karen Fukuhara (Suicide Squad) Anthony Starr (Banshee), Dominique McElligott (Hell On Wheels), Jesse Usher (Independence Day: Resurgence), Chance Crawford (Gossip Girl), Laz Alonso (Fast & Furious), Tomer Kapon, Nathan Mitchell, and Erin Moriarty (Jessica Jones).

Was just a dumb plot points to move their relationship along.
It makes 0 fucking sense. She looks 100% like her, AND even has her memories so she would be extremely convincing. Its not like Harry Potter where they looked like the person, but didnt act like them or remember anything. Damn him for having sex with her when she initiated!!!

Can anyone explain why Chadface starlight is mad at Huey for anything with the shapeshifter?!

She was mad he didn't realize it was her for the 10 days or however long she was held captive. How he was living his best life with a shapeshifter and didn't come to rescue her.

So Starlight decides to gaslight him and make him feel bad even though he was the one who was raped for 10 days and almost killed by the shapeshifter. It wasn't ok for her to blow the deep against her wishes. But her BF gets raped, fuck him, amiright?

I like when she was like "Thats the Annie you want, always down and ready?!" Yeah bitch, take notes. She got a ring on her finger in less than 10 days, just sayin.

Like I said, he was living his best life. :rofl:

I hope next season they break up. Because he experienced what he could be having. And sees Annie just can't hang. Especially in the bedroom. 🤣
