The Boys. First season had raw charm with some cool punk tracks, then season two sterilised it and it seemed to become another day time TV show. Had a similar experience with Black Mirror once that got the American/Hollywood treatment. Always Sunny lost its charm when the gang went to Ireland. Aweful end to what was otherwise a good series. But I mostly dislike American TV.

I liked that in the beginning of The Boys it was mostly normal humans approaching supers with creativity. In later seasons it seems more like superheroes against supervillains with some normal people on each side. Like a marvel series but with gore and obscenities.

You missed the dick scene then. I think it was season 3. Fucking brutal.

I really liked Black Mirror until every other episode was about infidelity.

The one with the husband having doubts about his partners infidelity had me feeling sick, not something we need promoted in our media especially when his doubts turned true which could imbolden abusive partners.
