The Boys Episode Season Four Finale Recap and Review aka Buckle Up for Phase Two

I remember going to the theater to watch Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1 when it came out.  I had read the book and was rather excited to see how it would interpret into a movie.  I was a bit skeptical when I heard they broke it into two parts, but there had…

The Boys Episode 4.06 Recap and Review – “Dirty Business” aka I am NOT Fine

OMG SHOW!  YOU BROKE HUGHIE!  I mean, what the Hell?  Oh, poor guy.  He’s the one good guy this show has.  His heart, his intentions are so good, yet he continues to find himself caught in some real f’ed up shit.  I mean, his Dad just died. He spent the opening scene with his mother…

The Boys Episode 4.05 Review – “Beware the Jabberwock, My Son”

After the previous bleak darkness, I was hoping that this next episode, “Beware the Jabberwock, My Son,” would deliver something more watchable.  Luckily, that did happen and much of it is due to the return of one of my favorites, Stan Edgar.  Not that Hughie’s story hurt either.  It was quite amazing.  Finally after 4…

The Boys Episode 4.04 Review, “Wisdom of the Ages” aka A Bit Too Much

Anyone remember the time that we got to watch Soldier Boy sing “Rapture” on a perfectly recreated Solid Gold episode?  Do you remember laughing your ass off over that, especially those of us old enough to remember Solid Gold?  Yeah, good times.  What happened to those?   Oh man, what a…downer.  “Wisdom of the Ages,”…

The Boys 4.03 Episode Recap and Review, aka Everyone Had a Bad Day

Ouch.  I’m going to rename “We’ll Keep the Red Flag Flying” to “Everyone Had a Bad Day.”  Or maybe even better, “Confronting the Past.”  As usual, there’s a lot pack into 64 minutes, but this one was a little more scattered and unfocused than the others.  Still, there ’s some important moments to note, not…

The Boys Episode 4.02 Recap and Review: WTH Did I Just Watch?

Ah, episode two.  You know, this is the one where the season premiere lulled us into a false sense of security.  Bring out the depravity!  Oh, but there is so much more.  It’s another packed hour that has us going, “What the Hell did I just watch?” Why not start the episode with some spectacular…

The Boys Episode 4.01 Recap and Review: Easing into a New Season by Feeling Uneasy

The Boys is back and the first episode of season four, “Department of Dirty Tricks,” wasted no time in digging into the action, moving the plot forward at a brisk pace while at the same time drilling into each of the characters’ rather twisted psyches.  And man, do we mean twisted.  Each character seems to…
