The Boys

TV

A series that comes very close to perfection in every moment. But it’s striking that men, rather than women, are always the ones in the violent and gore scenes, while women are always left on the sidelines, playing the innocent roles. After the bold decision in Season 1, Episode 3 and that incredible head-crushing scene by Popclaw that shook up all of social media I thought, “This show is going to be a work of art.” But after that, not a single woman killed anyone or appeared in any other scenes. I wish we could have seen a few more daring moments, And while the men were shown in their full nudity, absolutely nothing of the women was revealed. I mean, I understand positive discrimination, but they went a bit overboard. but still, it’s an amazing show an incredible first season.
