Short Billy Butcher focused film is coming to bridge the gap between S1 & 2.

Link includes spoilers for end of Season 1.

“In episode two, we originally shot something that revealed where [Billy] went and what his experiences were but it ultimately didn’t end up fitting that well into the episode because it made Butcher’s story a lot less mysterious and intriguing, and it slowed down the rhythm.”

So that footage has now been compiled into Butcher, he added. “There are references in the show that won’t make sense unless you see this thing.”
As far as I can tell the short film will be available alongside Season 2.

The Boys is an irreverent take on what happens when superheroes, who are as popular as celebrities, as influential as politicians and as revered as Gods, abuse their superpowers rather than use them for good. It's the powerless against the super powerful as The Boys embark on a heroic quest to expose the truth about "The Seven", and their formidable Vought backing.

Yes. Ten times better than the comic.

I tried to read the comic on the suggestion of a friend. Corny and tried too hard to be edgy. I like the show a lot, even though I kind of blank on the plot of the middle episodes. I just remember how it began and how it ended.
 
First episode of new season is really slow for me. It's not super woke, but pretty much nothing interesting happens. I'm 44 minutes in and it's a bit of a slog.

Just my thought after episode 2 but I think
stormy girl or whatever is a plant by the company, she is a total spy
 
Arghh godammit....why can’t you be like Netflix amazon prime.....weekly episodes are going to kill any show that has a shit episode and ever season has 1 or 2 of those

good first 3 episodes and the new addition I like.....shows good when the supes just murder people

Holy shit! I thought it was the 14th instead of 4th, lol. Weekly episodes, though, that kinda sucks.

Soundtracks for Kripke shows are legit amazing.

This is really entertaining so far, even if there’s a constant feeling of waiting for the other shoe to fall with the wokeness stuff they were talking about.
 
The fuck, man. They released all of season 1 in one day and now they wanna drip feed us? I had planned a binge weekend with friends. Guess this'll have to wait until October 9th.

Totally agree. This is bullshit. They did it with the Tottenham All or Nothing too. Just a ploy to get you to pay for 2 months of Prime instead of 1. Cunts man.

Loved the first three episodes, bit of a slow burn but some much needed character building. I said it about season one already, but boy did they cast some great actors in this show!

homelander is fucking terrifying in every scene because you feel like he can just snap at any minute, every time he interacts with anyone I'm wincing.

I wasn't a fan of the new girl stormfront, she just seemed borderline annoying in the first two episodes and didn't really seem to fit in. Then episode three happened and, well... No spoiler talk

For those worried they would somehow woke it up in season 2, relax. The writers even poke fun at diversity quotas and girl power in a way that hits pretty close to the bone, and almost felt like a subtle dig at other shows.

Overall, great stuff, so glad it didn't end on the cliffhanger I thought it would end on.
