Doom Patrol I really like. It captures the Morrison era weirdness perfectly. I didn’t mean there was a Watchmen influence, I just blame that comic for a lot of the deconstruction of the superhero in series like the boys.

We are in total disagreement here. I loved every single episode...especially the season finale.
And that’s the point of The Boys, over the top and then some.
The comics books are even more over the top and extreme. I’m glad they are changing things up as to keep surprising viewers.
I realize it’s not for everyone. But for me, it’s right up my alley.
It was a horribly written and incoherent mess. It didn't start off like that, but the last three eps were obviously revised during shooting and that wrecked eps three and four and made one and two seem like an alternate storyline.
The whole point of the first season was built on realistic actions/reactions/results. It requires real disciplined writing to follow through and to not give into melodrama and use relationships as constant excuses. You have to write where the story leads, and if that means half the cast is dead, so be it. If that means the season ends with everyone splitting up, then do it and leave it at that. But eventually everyone produces like Lost or Walking Dead and gives into making expensive soap operas.Comment

i am enjoying The Boys a lot. S1 was way better but this season has been good. I still have to watch the finale.
I like Umbrella Academy better than Doom Patrol. DP is just plain weird. maybe that's what its supposed to be, I never read the comic so I don't knowComment

I do understand Doom Patrol is the original of the bunch. So Umbrella Academy and even the X-Men owes much to Doom Patrol, as the X-Men appeared three months later after Doom Patrol (1963).sigpicComment

Actually, speaking of: have you ever seen an interview with Brendan Fraser? He is the most soft-spoken, sweet and sensitive guy in real life. He is totally unlike Robotman or really any of his big screen personas. It is kind of wild to see...Comment

If you go back and look at S1 you see a similar idea with Nolan's Batman in that superheroics only outcome is escalation. With S2 they get what, three eps in and suddenly Homelander is whipping around the globe killing all the villains he made. That turned the entire S1 Compound V subplot into a macguffin. So know we have S2 ending with a big ol' twist as to who was the actual Scanner. Except, it's not possible because when you look at the court room scene it couldn't have been the same person, and that ending made everything we just watched about the church have zero purpose to the season.Comment

More than anything, it’s her 64 identities that’s the main issue with me.sigpicComment
