TV: Gen V

[BertCorbeau]

A spin-off of The Boys taking place at Voght’s “superhero” school with young up and comers being trained in their skills.

Supposedly taking place at the same time as the events of the upcoming season 4 of the main show.

Lots of cameos slated as well.

This looks like fun:

Ohh it's a new show. I saw this video you posted in my suggestions on you tube and thought it was another preview for the next season of The Boys, did not realize it was a new show.

Watched the first three episodes over the weekend......not sure if I'm going to continue following through the season.

It's......not great.

Agreed. It's likely too "YA" for most adult viewers.

Found it very meh so far. Doesnt fully keep my attention all the way through.

As far as spinoffs go I’ve really enjoyed this so far

Same, liking the conspiracy etc. Different from The Boys with the same crazy sup powers lol

Love the tie ins with The Boys .. they've intertwined these two series nicely. Series finale should be a good one. Would love a Billy Butcher cameo.

Awesome finale .. sets up a second season nicely and a nice lead off to the next season of The Boys

Spoiler

Loved watching Marie start to realize her powers and ability .. she may indeed be the ticket to kill Homelander down the line if they cross these overs in a Boys/Gen V series finale

Got my Butcher cameo

I loved the season, but they're either going to have to write in a way to nerf Marie, or the "cinematic" use of her power is going to be annoying.

Spoiler: Spoiler

She's now ridiculously overpowered. If she's fighting to kill she can instantly blow people/supes up, if she's fighting to restrain she can go full Magneto on Wolverine against the entire population. Blood whips/projectiles are just a waste of time.

I think that is part of it and how she survived Homelander.
