I'm pretty sure none of Dennis Quaid's family talks to Randy. Mostly because Dennis's current wife is still grounded for staying out late instead of studying her senior year.

Jeffrey Dean Morgan is going to join the cast in season 4. Eventually season 6 of the boys will lead off with Dean turning off a boys episode and it'll just be the real supernatural season 6.

“The Boys” creator Eric Kripke slammed the show’s toxic fans after cast member Erin Moriarty came forward and revealed she has been the subject of misogynistic harassment online. Moriarty has been a series regular on “The Boys” for three seasons and plays the superhero Starlight. The actor wrote on Instagram that backlash to her character from toxic fans has left her feeling “silenced” and “dehumanized.”
“Hi trolls!” Kripke wrote on his own Twitter page in reaction to Moriarty’s statement. “One, this is literally the opposite of the show’s fucking message. Two, you’re causing pain to real people with real feelings. Be kind. If you can’t be kind, then eat a bag of dicks, fuck off to the sun & don’t watch ‘The Boys,’ we don’t want you.”
Bigots are, like, pathologically incapable of understanding when media is straightforwardly criticizing their behavior
Yeah like they are hardcore "umm actually stephen colbert is one of us, his parody is of you libs!" with what happens with Homelander. Despite it being god damn brutally obvious Kripke hates conservatives almost as much as he hates fresca and sea life.

I dunno how the boys could get less subtle without descending into polemic (which honestly it already kinda does).
Like once people have convinced themselves that actually an emotionally stunted man child is the toughest and smartest guy ever and ought to be in charge of everything there’s not really anywhere else to go

We’re entering a discussion of the responsibility art has to educate, and I’m personally of the opinion that if you watch all of The Boys and come to the conclusion that Homelander is the Good Guy, Actually, then you can basically write that person off because they will always either read their own opinions into any media they consume or write it off entirely as liberal propaganda.
My standard for verisimilitude is simple and I came to it when I started to write prose narrative: fuck the average reader. I was always told to write for the average reader in my newspaper life. The average reader, as they meant it, was some suburban white subscriber with two-point-whatever kids and three-point-whatever cars and a dog and a cat and lawn furniture. He knows nothing and he needs everything explained to him right away, so that exposition becomes this incredible, story-killing burden. Fuck him. Fuck him to hell.
What people are reachable through art are going to be less reachable if the art suffers because you are dropping anvils on people’s heads instead of writing a good, compelling narrative. Arguably, The Boys is at the very limit of this anvil-dropping kind of storytelling because what is there is still enjoyable. But we are talking about a show that features a practical effect for a shrunken man next to a giant pile of cocaine about to leap into a comically-sized urethra.
They should keep making the show they want and if the writing leads them to being more aggressive in telling fashy cocksnots they should be dropped into an active volcano, then fine. But anybody with two brain cells to rub together already gets the message of the narrative.

Well the Boys tells me that the problem with Starship Troopers was never that it was too subtle because as The Boys and Star Trek show us, even if you hit a fascist in the face with a brick they still sometimes mistake what you're about
like they didn't realize Star Trek wasn't Their Friend until it had a black female main character, and even then they still think the old shows were because nobody told them that an entire episode of DS9 about a black writer facing systemic racism might be about systemic racism

Or even that a socialist post-scarcity utopia that has grown beyond the use of money just might be the total opposite of fascist right-wing ultra-capitalism.

I don't follow this. (not like a "I disagree" thing, just like, I don't get what you mean)

Star Trek, there are right wing shit bergs who think its somehow a future their party would get to. I mean sure maybe after their ideology blows up the world maybe.

To be fair, that is pretty much what happens in Star Trek lore.

I know not to judge a show on first couple of episodes, but does it get a little less obvious?
I.e, "Farm girl With Big Dreams Gets Harsh Reality in the Big City"
Worth sticking with through 3 seasons? Cast is great in all of the one I've seen so far.
like, at all.
Despite being super obvious there are people attracted to this show that still don't get it, so I have grown to appreciate the lack of subtlety.
Come Overwatch with meeeee
